hey there guys

just wanted to share my experience with everyone when i finally brought my r32 gtst 10 months ago

since then what has happen to my 32 is my front driver side fender has been reverse into as it was parked at

the gym, leaving me the bill, as the driver did a hit and run, next to follow that was my car was parked at a friends house slept

overnight and came out the next morning to find that my driver side door had been reverse into, damaged was to great so

had to purchase a new door and respray the whole driver side, yet again leaving me with the bill. After getting my car back in

perfect working order i was involve in a accident today. Was driving on the highway and the driver of another car signal into my

lane without looking at his blind spot and hit my whole driver side (wat luck huh?) so now i need a new side blinker and

another respray on the driver side. l

yeh we have a cursed black car too, 350z, its had 5 good hits in 4 years, every panel has been done, none were our fault. Most recently a jeep turned into us in a corner, I stopped when he hit me but he kept driving - so he scraped the front bumper, drivers side guard, drivers door, drivers rear guard and rear bumper

Wow mine must be the only lucky black car then.

The only problem I have had is clutch went.. Stock clutch my fault because I was pushing it on the skidpans, your usually old worn parts that need to be replaced over time.. And my gearbox needs a reco but thats another story.

Ive had my car for nearly 2 years now.

    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
