GTS4WD Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 (edited) Not a mod. Hit and run. There are several four letter words Id like to type. But I dont want to risk banning. Im devistatd to say the least. Its taken me several hours to build up the courage to see the full extent in day light. Only about a month after spending $500 odd on GTR bonnet, latch and grille. And only one week after I got on top of my general maintanence (ABS unit, grease bushes, brake pads, brake fluid, oil temp gauge, oil change, oil filter, petrol fuel lines changed etc.) Damage done: Bent GTR Bonnet + deep scratching (perhaps may be bent back) Bent and chipped paint Guard (perhaps can be bent back) Shattered GTR Grille 2 x Headlights 2 x Blinkers GTST Front bar GTST Reo bar Bent GTR bonnet latch I fear that the radiator support my be damged too. I dont think Im going to se get the insurance company involved. Its a $2500 excess. Money that I can take to spend myself on rebuilding. Im trying to put a positive spin on it by buying a Finnal Konnexion front bar, GTR N1 head lights, GTR blinkers and GTR front quarter pannels. Straighten GTR Bonnet, Carbon fibre GTR grill. But its an eye wateringly large amount of money I shouldnt have to spend cos some f*$king toss bag on red P's decided to come in too quick into a round about, and understeer/lock up and plow into me! If you guys see anyone selling GTR or GTST boby parts in Syd please PM me!

GTS4WD Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Such a hot wheel! You know whats next? About 2" off ride hight! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/215749-whos-got-the-best-looking-na-here/page/25/#findComment-4197702 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eug Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 you know that's the weird thing Cris. these rims make the car seem a lot higher than what it actually is. there was about 120mm clearance with my sparco rims, the nismo's have the same rolling diameter so really the height shouldn't have changed. see how the skirts go, if not i can always drop down 1 or 2 circlips on the bilsteins.
