Just out of interest, is Redan Motors and American Made Cycles still selling imports?

I lived in Ballarat back in 2000- 2001 and they had a few R33's and R34 GTR's / Silvia's / EVO's for sale.

[RSFOURDayz]

I know Redan has a GTIr Pulsar but not sure if it's one they traded or imported... as for American Made Cycles I don't think they really sell anything any more, still see the same crap arsed American shit heaps there that have been there for a few years now. I often wonder if it's just a front for other more dodgey activities lol.

Interesting!

Yeah, other people had said similar things in regards to American Made Cycles

Also, there are a few car yards on Howitt Street and I remember seeing a R32 GTR there, going back a few years now.

Not sure if it was just the off chance they had one for sale or if it was an actual "import" car sales dealer.

There are very few imports getting around in Ballarat. Ive only been here 4 years but came from Melbourne where just about ll my mates were into datto's, early toyotas and Imports... Bit of a culture shock, it's like stepping back in time hahaha.. Definitely a Commodore town but i know of a few converts too which is good.

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

Haha!

Yeah, Sturt St. is where it's at for the commo / falcon fellas.

in just replacing my exhaust manifold cos i got an epa notice and when i checked the manifold was completely snapped in half, but let me know when you all are meeting up again and i will try come

[RSFOURDayz]

Hey mate.. that sucks.. Have you got a replacement? Depending on yr model i might be able to help.

[Mick]

yer my brother works in laverton and he picked one up from around the corner from where he works and he came up and dropped it off and took me to bursons so i could grab a gasket. Thanks for the offer tho, its good to know i have skyline owners willing to help

Im going to remove my 3" stainless screamer/front pipe and put the stock ones back on cos the wastegate pipe melted through my aircon pipe, i should have put something between them, but i will just end up swapping it for a normal 3" front and dump pipe and get a raplacement aircon hose so i dont have to worry about it happening again lol

[Jasonr31]

I go to ballarat a little bit to see mates but rarely see imports or drive mine around when i'm there. I know a guy with a 1j cressy up there so that counts for something

[Mick]

i finished putting the new exhaust manifold on and i put the stock exhaust back on and got it epa noise tested so now its all good thank god
