So far i have 3 interested.

I may also be able to source full doors for $1000ea.

I'm confused. So what you're saying is that you'll courier them if the buyer organises the courier?

I just wanted to clarify.

Im not really sure on how postage would work interstate on a large item, but i thought the buyer could organize a courier to pick them up from my house? and if yes. that's what i meant.

I would really like to see some better pics on the quality, and how well every thing fits in...

they don't do fiberglass do they? (Not sure if its a good idea, just checking)

Just to help you and others as these are large items;

You google "sydney to melbourne transport" (change cities of course), then about 20 results will come up that look decent most times, call the top 5 and say what you've got to send. They will want height, width, depth and weight. Tell them your address for collection, and the delivery address, then make sure you say "no rush they dont have to be overnight", then they will give you a price. Then ask if thats the best they can do as you're about to call 4 other companies and the lowest gets the work so whats their final price.

I used one place a while back who even offered a boxing service so i just gave them the parts, they did literally everything else. They sent a van to my house, picked up everything, that went to their warehouse, items were all boxed (buyer commented they were wrapped like fort knox), put on the truck, delivered in person to the buyers door 2 states away for something like $148 from memory.

Easy!

thanks bro, however i would rather buyer do all the organizing, like my last group buy i just ordered and payed for seats and picked them up in my own time on my own money, so i think its fair.

Well without dimensions, weight etc etc... that is utterly impossible.

can you not read ? do you think im stupid or something?

cant you see in post #1,7 it states im waiting for further information. and the official start is not till the 18th so there is 4 more days untill it is completely sorted out.

can you get plan fiberglass ones no carbon fiber?

no for second time :laugh: still awaiting more information from supplier will send another email, sorry about this.

    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
