question for you guys and girls -

i'm looking at a newly privately imported skyline/silvia but it hasn't been complied yet.

if i pay a deposit to the seller, what is the best way of ensuring that they won't fark off with my $$ when they are 'compliancing' it?

cheers all :(

id say ur best bet would be to steal his wallet... make a copy of his licence... then go to his house and abduct his pet... if its a cat... cut its tail in half and deliver it to him saying if anything happens then you know where he lives and how to get into his house... if he has a dog... cut off one of his childrens fingers and do the same.

i like dogs.

tell him you are samoan and 6ft3 and weigh 150kgs and you need this car as one of your 6 brothers crashed your other car while you were in jail for assault with a deadly weapon. that should do the trick.

You could give him a post dated CHQ, then he cant cash it untill that date.

hmmm that sounds like a good one.

and I'll get his driver's licence etc i guess...

Roy and Baron, thanks for the useful suggestions lol

If he were to run away, can't he just wait till that date and cash the money in then? Would he be able to do this or?

if you are looking for a sylvia or a skyline 32 you will be a lilttle gibed... i got mine for only 6,500 on road, because over there they cost about 2,000 aud....

where as the 33cost a little more... just talk to the guy and be legit about it, tell him you know how much they cost over there, and see what happens

oh btw if you are wondering how mine was so cheap its because my friend imported it for me

hope it helps

      Honestly, for a daily I would gladly rock a Camry. The more disposable the better. People drive horribly out here and road conditions are awful.

      Verify it's going into each of the 4 gears in normal acceleration, make sure the torque converter locks up over ~65-70 kph or so at low throttle opening. If you ease into the throttle at those speeds eventually you should get a "gear" between 3rd unlocked and 4th locked. It should downshift eventually if you floor it at 65 kph too. Get some Matic D ATF and drain the pan, check for signs of sadness in fluid and drain plug magnet. Top off to the correct level afterwards. If the transmission is worth saving you can drop the pan on a second drain and change the filter while you're at it. These are not complicated transmissions, at least compared to modern stuff.

      Comfortable replacement seats for R32 GTR

      A seat I find stupidly comfortable to sit in is the one in a friend's Merc Race Car. It even has the huge wings that wrap around your head. Best ever. Only issue is climbing through his scaffolding he put up in the doorway of the car... Ha ha ha. I sat in that seat for a couple of hours doing wiring. Another stupid comfortable seat I find, especially if my back is aching, is my OMP fixed back bucket seat too. I'll just sit on it when I'm exhausted in the garage sometimes to relax!

      I just got off the phone with Dean from Vosta in Brisbane. They are the ones that do the replica seats and they have a shop full of seats for my to try out. Lovely guy.  I haven't decided whether to go genuine or replicas, I'm leaning towards Genuine at this point but who knows.  Also thinking the STRADIAs are the way to go VS the GIAS since they have a lower hip edge and would be easier to get into. Don't really like the idea of arm rests on the models to the right of this diagram either, maybe they can be removed?
