hey bud... you remind me of me.

took me a while to find a quality stocker. i looked at many 32s from carsales, carpoint, and sau. ended up finding one here on sau. the market is f**ked at the moment, so you will be able to pick up something good for cheap.

you can get a workshop or mechanic to check a car that you think is good. i had an engineer who had worked on r32s check 2 cars. first car was a definite no in areas i had no idea about, second car i had him check was a yes and i bought it. Adrian Lovelace: 0418 336 319. He's in SE melb.

Hey ASh

did you own a White Magna with the black rims. If so This is wes the guy you bought the Exhuast of.

THis site is good if you own a Skyline its a wealth of information.

I had such trouble trying to sell my Magna it took me ages and in the end i ended up trading it in for way less than i wanted.

Good luck with the sale and the search for the the skyline

Hey still the same number

i traded mine in at a place called Japcar on Sydney Road Fawkner.

They had some really good car there. But i would suggest selling the Magna and buying one private. You get much more. i paid

14k for a completely stock car it even came with the tape deck. its been good so far except i had to get the bearing changed in the gearbox which was a nightmare cause me and my uncle did it ourselves didnt have the car for about a month

Welcome aboard,

Don't get a stock one, get a modded one but in a good condition then work it the way you want it from there.

      Nope, but they are definitely one of the default choices. Well established.

      Haha actually I did join back then under a different email address,  I couldn't re-activate my account so made a new one! I didn't post much anyway so not missing out on much. Amazing to see how the value of the cars and parts has changed over the years, also ACT section appears to be dead now.

      Thanks... It's in pretty good condition overall, probably due to not being drifted/tuned however being a daily driver has taken its toll. Had 100k on the clock when I got it, up to 180k now. Unfortunately it's not 100% dent free, it's got a small dent on FLH side and broken indicator from where I hit a small kangaroo at high speed. If you look at closely at pic #5 you might spot the dodgy trailer light repair my old man and I rigged up as temporary repair! - It's still there due to a combo of needing the car as daily driver and then too lazy/busy to fix properly. I've a couple of other minor accidents accidents as well but nothing major. One required a new front bar and unfortunately the smash repairer ordered the normal gtst one and not the aero bar. Needed the car back asap so just went with it, regretted ever since.

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      I can't believe that anyone is foolish enough to believe that the base maps are for any other purpose than to drive the car up onto the trailer/truck or gently creep it to the dyno. No matter how good they are, they can never be any better than the factory maps**, and only the foolish trust those on a significantly modified setup. **Yeah, yeah. I know there's also the difference between factory maps being fixed to certain injector sizes and MAP/AFM/VE relationships, and the likely aftermarket ECU base maps being better able to handle the sorts of changes that would render a stock ECU dangerous, like different sized injectors. But let's just ignore that for the moment, because the principle is still the same.
