and the second one - the one i've seen today (though i'm sure this is an old auction, i know not to trust japaneseusedcars.com)

again copy n paste img tage won't work

^^^that's more the one i'd appreciate an estimate on.. reason being the kms aren't insanely low.. pretty average.. but also has a sunroof so i can be a baller.

i mean estimates on both would be fantastic but yeah =)

PS - that's not to say i don't trust japaneseusedcars.com as a business - i'm sure they're very reputable however none of their auction data matches up with anything else that has to be paid for - but this website is all i have access to =P

Sorry mate, I literally got knocked off my feet after that last post - smashed my knee up!

$13500 for a 99 - can be done easily, just need to be patient for the right car. If you can get one here, you're happy with it and think it's a good clean, honest car without being made of 15 different cars - go for it.

bahahahahhahahaha that made me laugh a lot and another lot

well kristian - ... i don't really want to post up my wants list incase someone else buys it - but i suppose it's safe here being a skylines forum and nobody here is interested in a soarer i imagine

in short - this was put to sale the other day

link

in short - NSW - in that killer rare blue mica colour - manual VVTI turbo 15K. AWESOME car... but in NSW and exxy transport - this was decided because i was starting to think importing just isn't worth it... then lastnight - AFTER i made the thread about car transporting - by mistake - i found this one

this link here

and i simply want to make en enquiry about it to weigh up my options - because literally BOTH cars are my dream - auto or manual i don't care - the auto looks to be in slighttttllyyyy better condition but both cars are perfect it seems

but yes - this is why i "changed my mind" so yeah no lies i do change my mind but it's only cos i'm a hard shopper and i want the best deal for myself =)

Have you had a look at any local Soarers Eps? Like actually gone and seen/driven them? My mate picked up a nice example locally for cheap. Up in Queensland they go for dirt cheap.

Importing worked out cheap for me but both Soarers I brought in were held for quarantine and they charge YOU for them storing it at the dock during that time. Was a real bastard cause it could have been even cheaper without that.

How long did it get held for and why mate?

I've never had a scenario when AQIS have caused a hold up at the docks, provided all paperwork and so on is in order. And those rare instances where I have had to pay storage it's at $45 a day and never for more than a couple of days!

Yeah wat he said... wen i imported the cefiro the docks bloke hid it for me behind a container cos he thought i was a sikkarn for getting a cef... cost me nothing and he held it for a week for free all for love of the sport... but even if cost money not expensive in big scheme of things.... mind u this was about five or so yearz ago with 15year rule.. as i remember i think wwII was still on... i was definately doing the charlston so maybe times changed

and obviously i keep close watch of aus soarers. but im extremely selective...

I have even had a full on aus customs investigation mounted against one of my cars where they flew up investigators from melb to syd to poke and prod the car and take pics etc (was an R35 and nissan was putting pressure on them to find something wrong) and even then I think it was delayed a week and I might have had to pay 1 or 2 days of the storage if any.

usually the hold ups are caused by not having the customs entry or AQIS done on time. if you know what you are doing and have a good customs agent then these things can be easily avoided. :ermm:

      RB25 S2 Idles but doesn't want to rev

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Are those 1000cc side feeds? If so, that's part of your problem. I have 1480cc and they idle at stoich on 98RON, and all the way to E85. Also your coil packs.....

      RB25 S2 Idles but doesn't want to rev

      By Trilbyte · Posted

      Update for the sake of closure   Ended up getting the intercooler piping all sorted, new plugs and yellow jacket coils, and she was idling mint until it warmed up while I was bleeding the cooling system. Found the misfire to be localised to cyl 3 by unplugging coilpacks, ran a compression test, that checked out, then decided to get a mate to check if that spark plug was firing out of the motor. Upon cranking it over, with the injectors disconnected, the car actually fired and ran on a couple cylinders and heaps of fuel came out the top of cyl 3 I'd say that injector's either spraying incorrectly or spraying far too much, which is fine as I'm planning on replacing them anyway I'm planning on making about 250kW on flex fuel, and have a set of 1000cc injectors from ozautosport, obviously overkill but I'm planning on building the motor and running more boost further down the line, do you reckon they'd be too big for a smooth idle on 98? Thanks for the replies gents, much appreciated

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      I'm confused. You said you want to "remove the clear coat from most panels" but it sounds like you are actually doing a full respray? Few random things to add -  If you chase the blistered paint with 120 grit, I can almost guarantee you'll chase it down to bare metal (that's fine). But if you paint the car from here, you'll have nice little indents where ever the blistered paint was. The new paint won't magically level out the low areas, you need to fill them. Which leads me to the main point I wanted to add, make sure the whole car is flat before you paint it. All those areas with blistered paint you sanded out, make sure to fill them and triple check they are flat with a block guide coat. I'd also check the whole car is flat with a large block and guide coat but yeah up to you if you want to go that far.

      300hp (225kw) is barely outside the standard turbo's range with a bit of extra boost in it (200ish). If you are going to change the turbo you should aim for 250-300kw (330-400hp) to make the expense worthwhile
