Rant time:

I'm looking for a spare engine/gearbox for my RS250 racebike. I answer an ad one guy has for an engine/box for $500. I tell him I'm real keen and I'll be in VIC in the next few weeks to pick it up. Next reply I get, he's saying sorry totalled receipts for work done and now wants $500 more than what he quoted. I tell him I'm not interested anymore and now he's having a go at me for wasting his time! Wasting his time??? :banana:

Ready to just say I'll take it, go over there in the next few weeks and then just hand over the cash for the original price! Whatever happens after happens ... but I'll give him a demonstration of wasting time.

:devil:

I'm heading towards the same boat! As much as I love the GTR... I really want to travel :banana:

do it man. i was meant to do it years ago, i almost regret putting it off for so long.

i mean, i can always buy another car when i get back, but spending 3+ years seeing the world... thats a little more difficult.

i dont wanna sell the s14, i love the tractory pos to bits, but yeah... time to do something mature i spose.

nah, they sell them as "cold air induction kits" with a ram on the end, and charge like a wounded bull for them

try sprints. i saw something like what youre after at the local on the other day.

step 2 return in 10yrs time to classic automobil still respected n feared by many :banana:
I could purchase one of those car bubbles.

storing a car for an extended period of time isnt as simple as just chucking it in a car-coon or something...

n yeah its not that simple but its doable, all depends on how much you like ur car.

Garage GT-R,

Take loan for trip, enjoy yourself.Then pay it back slowly and keep your pride and joy and then get home loan and merge loans and the trip loan will disappear into a 300k mortgage :cool:

    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
    • Probably a smart choice to buy one vs build, purely for the motivation part as you said! Imagine the metal dust everywhere from grinding all the steel to build one. Ha ha ha!   Also, post a photo of your garage.   Mine is below, this is where I've been cleaning and have already half filled a caged 6*4 trailer. And this is after my cleaning expedition mentioned previously... The middle normally has a car in it, but I'm dumping things in the middle as I sort through them. And poor skyline was dusty and has had the lightest few drops of rain and now it looks atrocious and needs to be dragged back out and washed thoroughly! And yes to the right is technically another bay, you really can only see 2 bays out of 3 in this picture.  
    • It's more like on average the things I see a lot of things going wrong. Yes, usually the people who reach out are the ones who are having problems but on average it feels like mechanics and tuners here aren't really competent. I swing between thinking my standards are just way too high and wondering whether people really are just this dumb. I just had the strangest 10+ reply argument on a Facebook group over someone insisting that the factory R34 GTT boost control solenoid reduces boost pressure to 5 psi when it's on and raises boost pressure to 7 psi when it's off despite showing the exact plumbing in the factory service manual and the solenoid behavior detailed in the FSM.
    • I steam cleaned my near new set of volk gtc wheels 14 years ago and farrkkked them lol. The clear coat cracked like spider webbing in several areas. Lesson learnt don't do that. 😭
