Thanks for the advice guys. Cossy's are a lot more common in the UK - I picked up mine for £450 (yes, seriously, roughly $1,000 at the time!). I then stripped it and built a lotus 7 replica out of the bits. This car is now in my shed in NSW. I've just had 2 guys in Orange let me look over their cars, and I've driven one. It was just like old times, and there were a few things which seemed a bit odd. I wasn't looking to buy either, just get a feel for them. Is it typical for the gear stick to feel sloppy? Gear selection was a bit average, but even in gear the stick was all over the place. Is there anything I should also keep an eye out for (ie do they rust in particular places, or does the suspension have issues?) Engineers certificates for modifications - do most people bother getting engineer certificates, or am I most likely to find uncertified modification is typical? I've got enough time to be picky, so I'll keep reading and see what comes along. Thanks everyone, Treeve

Work at Cadia, been in Orange for a couple of years (because of the mine). I'm trying to learn about R32s as much as I can at the moment, but the worst issue is there aren't many around here for me to test drive, or even just speak to the owner. I guess that's the point of the forum - I talk to like minded people / owners and learn all the ins and outs so I don't end up buying a lemon. I also have a second job, which may or may not make me popular. Current work loads means I don't really want any more customers though, so we'll leave it at that. Cheers, Treeve

I'm not a real fan of 33's, I don't have the money for a 34, and I'm only really after a GTR. I've had a Subaru, and the temperatures out here mean AWD is important to me. I've also owned a Sierra Cosworth, so really an R32 GTR is basically the better version of what I could get when I was in the UK. Thanks all for the warm welcome. Treeve

G'day guys, I'm new to the forum, but I've read through bits as a guest off and on for the past few years. As an introduction, my name is Treeve and I'm in Orange (not expecting anyone else to be here). Cheers, Treeve
