I found something very scary on the inside of the right rear tyre today: lucky i just happened to be looking under the car- it was not making any funny sounds or any other warning that it could have let go at any moment!!! The tear had gone almost right around the tyre- 4-5 inches before it could have been very bad ending (especially if doing 110kms/hour)... Looks to have slighly damaged the rim too, but that will be an easy fix i imagine But i look on the brightside- whilst the tyre is being replaced i can look even more pimpin widebody kit anyone? haha

if i resprayed mine it would be bayside blue or black good decision to keep it- i have done the same. I'm on the lookout for some r34 gtr rims and some decent suspension + brakes we'll have to meet up once yours is all done

my s2 headlight mod

nice meeting you Hugh! Let me set the scene- me, my wife and my mother in law have just finished lunch, then this bloke sticks his head in the cafe and says "anyone here own the yellow stagea"... first thing i think is "oh shit someones hit it"... "yeah mate thats me", so over walks this guy and i'm still thinking what the hell has happened, does he want to buy it? lol.. "im 66yo from SAU- nice to meet you..." nice bloke- had a quick chat while we finished up lunch and paid. Sorry we didnt make it up to the gallery- ended up going to one of the wineries. The girls were keen for a drink hahaha

last chance guys- if not sold and delivery taken by end of financial year i'm keeping it

yep i took my "lancer" interstate and had no dramas- just under 2 tonne and well over 3000kms round trip. I would however recommend upgraded suspension and brakes. Other than that it tows like a champion (and drinks like one too hehe)

^ logistics for the buyer in getting his car from SA to QLD, then getting my car down to SA was too expensive... Car needs to go- Price reduced to $19999

car being inspected tomorrow...

i've had one serious enquiry that is still being discussed pending deposit- until that time car is still for sale

lol Sydneykid- you started the original thread years ago... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/To...l&hl=towbar and a few others: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/To...l&hl=towbar http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...t&p=4382443 The most common is a "max" (contact details in the 1st thread towards the end).

and my for sale thread (free plug haha)- so if you havent already brough a stagea http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/St...Co-t261066.html

i've just copied and pasted this from my for sale thread- sorry if it sounds like a sales pitch http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/-t...20#entry4466420 Here is a cut and paste from a email from Andrew at CCubed. . . . The complete kit costs; -Guards $ 690.00/pr -Bar reo $ 350.00 -Headlight adaptors $ 200.00/pr -Bonnet Hybrid $1,200.00 -R34 GTR bar $ 450.00 -Front Lip $ 250.00 -Splitter/Diffuser $ 600.00 (Opitonal) All these pieces come to $3,740.00 All these prices are for fibreglass (FRP) products. We can do the bar, lip and diffuser in a flexi version too, so it behaves just like a O/E plastic item, even sounds like them when you tap it. This kit means no de-gassing of the air conditioning core. The bonnet goes straight on to the factory Stagea hinges. It lines up with the rubber stops and bonnet catch. As it is a R34 top skin with a Stagea under-skin, so we call it a "Hybrid hood". The headlight adaptors are moulded brackets which allow the R34's lights to mount to the Stagea's radiator support. You only need to trim a small amount of metal from the Stagea's radiator support to allow the wider R34 lights to fit in position. We supply a template which allows you to mark out where you need to trim. To fit them, drive in drive out would be approx another $2,640.00 (plus paint and assuming the car is straight to begin with). We can paint them too, but most people have their own painters. This price would fluctuate depending on the mounting of any other bits and pieces, e.g. FMIC or Factory SMIC etc that may need moving or trimming to make fit. The only other things to probably grab would be head lights and the rubber strip which fits between the top of the front bar/grill and bonnet front edge. We can source these too if needs be. The kit even comes with a carbon fibre bonnet prop! As you don't use the gas struts on the new hood. Or you we can get your existing gas struts de-gassed a percentage to compensate for the lighter hood. We've done that on a few cars now when they fit lighter hoods. Depends if you want to spend that little bit more, or just use the prop. So to recap: Parts- $3740 (for fibreglass copies- my stagea has GENUINE R34 GTR alloy bonnet and GENUINE R34 GTR front bar) Fitting- $2640 + paint Headlights (non-xenon)- around $1100 I'm up to $7480 (plus paint) so far... This aint a cheap thing to do to a car
