I had hoped to clock off 1ish. May have to work a full day. Farken

There are many reasons not to go to east coast customs

Happy Friday morning all

So the current spec list for the car is: Engine RB25DET engine Garrett GT35R (aka GT3540R, GT3582R) T3 V-Band Turbo 700hp, Dual Ball Bearing Turbo Beanie HKS Stainless High-Mount Exhaust Manifold Turbosmart 48mm Pro Gate Sard 550cc side flow injectors Splitfire Coilpacks Turbosmart E Boost boost controller Apexi pod Custom 3 inch exhaust from the turbo back 3 inch high flow cat 3 inch cat back exhaust to 5 inch cannon Greddy Plenum Greddy blow off valve Hybrid front mount Walbro fuel pump Sard fuel pressure regulator Nismo Oil Cap (!!!!!) Suspension and Wheels Gab coilovers JIC adjustable rear upper arms Workmeister 18x10 +22 on all four corners R33 front calipers RDA slotted rotors Ferodo DS2500 pads Standard rear brakes Front Strut Bar Driveline RB25DET gearbox Cusco Single Plate Clutch Driveline Custom 3 inch single piece tailshaft Hicas lock bar Cabin and Stereo Stereo stripped out Eboost controller Greddy turbo timer In cabin kill switch Battery relocated to boot Recaro front seats Rear seats and sound deadening taken out And of course, current power is, as the title states, 380rwhp at 16psi.

At this point, my wife gave birth to twins, which impacted our budget a fair bit, as the planned return for work for her was no loner feasible, as we would be paying about $600 a week in child care cost. so my planned track rims were sold off first and Then my daily was sold as the twin pram could barely fit in the boot and it was replaced with this So as the funds dried up, so did the mods. So I just took some more hard park shots for a while And attended SAU QLD's 2011 Charity Cruise I then had a r32 gtr bonnet land in my hands, so dummy fitted that Really didn't like the way my front bar sat on the gtst reo in that shot so found a r32 gtr reo instead, and in the process found a black gtr bonnet which I virtually swapped for my white one, saving me the cost of having it painted So removed latch, fitted gtr bonnet, changed reo over and re-fitted front bar. At the moment, still no spare funds to paint the bar, but I will get there... As I got rid of the bonnet latch, bought some speed flow bonnet pins that I am currently figuring out how to best install.

After that I got a cheap roll cage for the car, so stripped the rear seats out and got rid of the sound deadening And also fitted a passenger R33 GTR seat. The plan at this stage was to get a fixed back drivers seat when the money was right. In the meantime, SAU drag day came up, so took the car out for its second drag outing. As it was run during the day, the heat was ridiculous. Best time was a 13.2, but had a lot of wheels spin in the stretched 225s. Not much happened for a while apart from attending a few skyline cruises Shots from 2010 Charity cruise Shortly after the drags sourced a cheap r32 gtr bar, and finally fitted the cage Then lowered the car a little bit for the wank factor and took some more hard park shots

sorry to bump this up, but do not under any circumstance just go off his quote. he could have just gone to a friend and had him quote you a fairytale. if you are paying out of your own pocket, if he wants to see the money, you both have to agree on a repairer. otherwise, let him take you to court. ensure you communicate to him in writing that you would like the car inspected at an agreed smash repairer, and you should have no issues. The court is not going to award the one quote he got from a smash repairer he selected himself.

I shall see if I am allowed out. I am heading up to the sunny coast for a boys weekend, so not sure if I could swing Thurs, Fri, Sat and Sun nights away.

I have had this car in my possession for just over four years now, but never got around creating a build thread on here. I sold my 33 series 2 with the plan on buying something sensible, but then this 32 came up at the right price, and much to my wife's disgust, I ended up taking it home. I managed to make it through about 3 months driving it around with the rb20 in it before I decided to go the 25 route. As this was the first car that I decided to seriously modify, a few lessons were learn along the way, some quite costly. Ultimately the plan for the car is to be a street registered weekend toy that I hope to do some trackwork in. In the four years I have owned it, it has been to the drags twice, and one cruise day on the track, so looking to really improve on those statistics this year. Bellow is how I got the car, sans some Work wheels that I fitted shortly after. My biggest regret, to date, is that I bought a model with a sunroof, as I am finding that the headroom is quite limited, especially when I am wearing a helmet. As I'm 6'3, if I am wearing a helmet, I have to sit unuaturally low in the seat, or with my head at a slight angle. I will see if I can rectify the problem down the track with a different seat arrangement, but would love to get rid of the sunroof entirely, as it leaks water. Getting a roof cut seems like an expensive option, and am just considering getting a whole new shel and transfering my gear into that. Will have to look into legalities of that in QLD, but that will not happen anytime soon as funds are short anyway. The following photo was from the first drag day. The rb25 was just put in and I was running a precision highflow turbo, gizmo boost controller, coilovers and some adjustable rear arms. Car was tuned to 300rwhp at 12psi and I managed a 13.7, so was not overly impressed. I decided to ditch the Work wheels and rolled on stock r33's for a while, until I found some 18x10 +22 WorkMeisters for the right price. The mexican fitment may not be to everybody's taste. I managed to blow an intercooler hose whilst driving normally. Being a 32 owner I generally carry a small toolkit with me at all times. The car stayed in this shape for 12 - 18 odd months while I got some second hand parts together. I booked it in with Elite Racing at QLD to have them fitted and tuned. Returned home with 380rwhp at 16psi which I was very happy with. Currently running a stainless steel manifold that I am hoping to replace with a 6boost one down the track. Once again, no immediate plans on doing this, as i will probably wait until I have funds to go a forged rebuild before I do so. With the car making decent power I finally fitted my numberplates that I had sitting for a while that I had planned for another car I owned At this stage, having spent a good chunk of money, and having proposed to my now wife, the 32 took a bit of a backseat. having the wedding and honeymoon costs coming up, I mainly mucked around with minor cheap mods, and things that I could do myself. Living in a single carport house with a driveway on a slope and minimal tools, even that work was very tedious. So for a laugh I changed the gearboot to something slightly festive and found some cheap wheel nuts for $45 from one of our traders for a bit of bling

Still no bonnet pins on, so no skyline drive for me

any chance we can have the topic title changed so that whoretown is no longer included in it. I cringe every time I click on it whilst I am at work.

Miserable weather is miserable.

Morning ya'll

I might be blind, but I can't see any price....

I love Hong Kong Cheap drinks, great cheap food. Humid as f**k tho

^^^^ Seriously? $450 is a bloody bargain for a complete gtr bar with lip and vents. I have seen bars sell for twice that.

Friday the 13th off to a great start. Staff sick left, right and centre. Let's get through this day....

In that case no. You would have to find out what brand it is and get a price 3k seems like a bit of money for a rear bar. Might include the price of a rear reo as well, but still seems a lot. As I said, arrange for him to take the car to a pannel beater of your choice and get a quote

Before handing over any money, arrange for the car to be taken to a pannel beater of your choice as well. 3k for a rear bar seems steep, but then again, I have gotten prices from Nissan Australia before and they weren't cheap 35's are getting to be nearly 10 years old, there should be a few rear bars going at wreckers by now.

I still don't have a bonnet latch or pins, so still remain out

I thought QLD didn't do emissions testing.....

Not sure if it's listed in the topic title as I am on an iPhone, but what's the location?
