After selling my 32 in december last year i have been searching for my new ride.

I have finally found what i have been looking for and it arrives in my driveway on Wednesday.

I cannot wait for it to arrive, and take it for a spin.

Must thank this site as i bought a car out of the for sale section, it has made most of the journey from QLD now and will be in my driveway on wednesday.

Must also thanks VIP car inspections for there help in the buying process of inspecting and checking the car for me. As well as handing over my bank cheque, and making sure that the car was loaded onto the truck to make its way down to me. They have kept me informed all the way through the process.

As for the car, you will have to wait until the next criuse that there is unless i give in and let the cat out of the bag before then.

Thanks

Shaun :happy:

it is an r34 4 door, 2001 model manual

thought about a GTR but i wanted something a little less costly, as i used to own an r32 gts4 and had to replace both front and rear diff and a gearbox. i know how much they can potentially cost to fix. So i went for something a litle more practical.

Have just come back from my first drive in the car.

First impressions are that it is awsome, the way it rides, handles and makes power is unbvelievable.

I think i am in love. :laugh: lol

nice hope we get to see it soon!

yes, it was nice to meet you Nahn.

Everybody else will see it around as it gets out a bit more.

For now it is back in the shed after shopping for some parts at autobarn gilles plains.

anything on sale at autobahn? apprently there is 10 - 50% sale, which i think begins tomorrow...or is that today?

i thought that was just tuesday?

Dunno about you guys but i always found autobarn to be a rip off even when they had the sales on???

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
