You should probably start on a slightly damaged Silvia, with mild panel damage, maybe a pushed-in radiator support. This way parts are cheap and it wouldn't be too hard to fix. Even then, you would at least need to know how to weld. Trust me, having fixed two damaged cars already, it's never worth it in the end. Unless you can get all the parts you need cheap or free, then don't bother with expensive cars, or it will prove to be a very expensive lesson. I'm on my third repair now and just can't be bothered. Alligning guards, bonnets, cutting, straightening, it's just a pain. Hence, I've just taken my car to the panel beaters this time. With regards to switching plates, it's not that easy. If the car was declared a write-off, it will need to get a VIV certificate before it can be re-registered. They are used to dealing with all the Habib's from Broady, so they know exactly what to look for. They thoroughly check that the numbers are legitimate and not swapped over, ensure you have receipts for parts and that panel work was actually completed. Anyway, good look with your endeavours.

We have the same pyjamas. You have impeccable taste.

I've been sent better photos and they are in fact GTR headlights. I have already sent money for these. GTR headlights are not the same. It is ignorant people like you Turbo1958 that make it so hard to buy the correct parts. GTR headlights have spacers between all the mounting bolts and have an extended metal bracket at the top mounting point.

ProMax Auto said they are out of stock for 6-8 weeks. Can't wait that long. Anywhere else?

Yeh, but they are closed till Jan 3rd. If don't get by then, will get from Unique.

Do you mean ProMaz in Thomastown? Aren't they rotaries only?

I'm after GTR bar. Have PM'd you. Thanks!

Organising a swap with another member. If it falls through, I will PM you. Thanks for the interest!

That one looks good. Send me a photo of the other one and your bank details and if it looks fine like this one, I will transfer you the money asap. Thanks.

Contact details for ProMax? Can't find in white or yellow pages...

Yeh I know I had the same greif, it's really stupid. I've seen the vehicle report. The VIV guy showed me. It's the most vague piece of crap. All it pretty much had written was damage to side and roof, with the crosses showing the location on a picture. I could have dinted the roof or snapped the B pillar and the VIV guy would have been none the wiser. Also when it says side damage how do they know if I just replaced the rear quarter or if I had the replace the whole rear suspension, door, etc... They don't. That's why it's so easy. Not worth the hassle though, when they knock you back for stupid crap. Congratulations on passing though.

Hi Guys. I am finding it very hard to find anyone that sells R33 GTR Carbon Fibre bonnets in Melbourne. I don't mind if it is fibreglass frame etc.. I need a bonnet that is free of ripple and fits perfectly. Pics of the style I am after are included. Thanks in advance!!! Need ASAP. Help appreciated!

So can you please post a picture of the top of the headlights so I can see if all the brackets and spacers are in tact. All it takes is one photo and I will have the money in your account. It's very easy.

Sunshine.

I'll take the Recaro for $220, provided someone wants the GTR for $380. I'm in Melb.

Crappy, accident repaired bonnet. Needs to be sanded down to be smoother. Only PICKUP. $30. Will throw out if not sold. MELBOURNE.

Have two R33 GTSt front guards for sale. Both will need a respray. Passenger side is $50, drivers $80. Passenger side has been accident repaired. Pickup only. Melbourne. Thanks!

How much? Will these fit GTSt? Cheers!

If you can send me a photo of the top of the headlights and all the brackets and spacers are there, then I will definately take these off you as I am after GTR headlights. Even if you just use a camera phone like you did to take those photos.
