I keep spotting this red R31 coupe on my street in Ngunnawal, was a nice looking ride but has hit something big time, front grill and bumper is missing and back left has been smashed to.

Anyone know this car?

I know the car

And to be honest, I'm not surprised that it's damaged..... Which is quite sad because it used to be the tidiest 31 I've ever seen

spotted a silver R34 GTT today, and also a very sexy black one could've been a GTR..

also a white R33 with CF bonnet and no rear wing on the parkway.

and Supafly yesterday!

that was more then likely me Shell, car was very dirty and there is a wing but its tiny (stealth)

p.s. the cat is now out of the bag CF...

Your not suprised? Whys that mark? Because you know Tom so well?

I know the car and the owner. I took some pics of it 2 hours before it came to its demise on a wet and hail soaked canberra road. It is a massive loss, as this was the finest R31 i've ever seen. In my opinion it isnt fixable (cost of new shell vs repair bill) but the owner is very keen to see it repaired.

In fact if you want to offer any help then a PM to myself would be awesome.

We seem to have a misunderstanding Stevie, I didn't mean that the way you think.

PM sent, maybe I can help

Saw a few Skylines out in Braddon last night, all of which Bluprint listed. One r32 was mine, didn't see you at all supadan.

That Cima is owned by Danny, he is part of CanberraCruises, the club thats listed in my signature. Such a nice car.

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
