about a month ago i stacked my GTST 32, me and mate got some quotes and decided to fix the front ourselfs with a halfcut and get the rear end repaired with GTR guards and full spray..alltho we got further into the project last week to find its going to be too much work and cost too much with still at heart knowing its been in a bad way.

here is some progress shots off attempting to straighten the front end, didnt do too bad a job but it got to a point we saw there was way to much bent. Basically we did the sums and its better off purchasing a GTS and doing a complete swap over and selling the left overs from the doner car and my car, getn some new mags and givn the doner car a complete spray.

I have found a car I really want which is ex east and to be able to get it I need my levin to be sold, its on the market but until its sold I sorta gota sit on my hands. But we made a start over the past couple weeks so that is something.

The total overall picture is to purchase a GTS, swap the interior, drivetrain and motor and tein coilies. Then its going to get tinted and some nice 18s slapped on it. But im going to be painting my FMIC black and hiding it a bit and keeping it looking NA. Sleeper is where its at :P

      High temp brake fluid?

      yeah I've never understood that either.... And to answer an earlier question, I write the date on open bottles and throw them if more than 12 months old (which they almost always are, because I don't need to bleed them unless I'm changing lines/calipers etc in between)

      Nah, the one that hit the boot was a big steel locker, around 6 foot height, 4 foot wide and 2 foot deep, empty it weighs about 15kg and had about that amount of stuff in it The photo didn't give a good representation of the actual damage, the large ding on the passenger side was about a inch deep, the one on the driver was about 1/2 inch deep, right on the curve, where the inner boot frame doesn't let you get behind it with a dolly Basically the same issue with getting behind the damage on the centre of the boot We could have filled it all with bog, but my OCD would be triggered every time I looked at it, knowing what hides beneath  As for the locker, I did get the shits with it and put it in the scap metal bin, but, I pulled it out and it is now sitting in the garage at home full of car servicing stuff, cleaning gear and random tools, it's going to pay for it's indiscretions

      Whilst I typically don't cheap out on things, if I can save some money, like $1000, on a clean straight panel, that gives me $1000 to spend on other stuff, basically free money really 🤔 🤣

      Is the toolbox that damaged the boot seal the same item that fell on the car during the storm a while back?

      Who are you to deny yourself? I’ve said this many times to myself and apart from getting what I really want, I go quiet for a while whilst working out what I just did to my savings and how will I afford what it cost, then, next payday…
