As far as I am aware the car has also been in a accident of some sorts recently. I dont know the full details but I would speak to bambam privately about it. Before anyone flames me for it I think its only fair as manual did ask for the history on this vehicle.

manual - I think that you'd best ask bam about it. he's an honest guy.

I dont think that starting a thread on an internet forum about a guy is a particularly good way to buy a car.

After reading this and then re-reading the original post i can see a way to misinterperate what i was trying to achieve - it wasn't my intent

cheers again all - hopefully i can cruise with you lot in a new line REALLY soon!!

Hey Manual,

 

You don't happen to drive that Silver Magna with the plates [MANUAL] do you ?

Currently yes - but I am hoping to put those plates onto a Black line in the near future!!

I believe we cruised together at one stage - if you are part of the RICE guys!!

I got into the 14's up the strip in a FWD Family car - but now i want something a lot quicker, RWD, an yeah - a lot more sexy looking :P

Insurance Broker is the way to go ...... i checked out Just Car n Famous ...... $2.8K i dont think so ..... went thru insurance broker got fully comprehensive for less than what i pay on my parents policy. Funny thing is the insurance company they signed me with CGU i rang them an hour before the Brokers rang them and they said they dont insure imports ...... so going thru a broker definately will open up doors.

Cheers for the heads up on the insurance - already done - got a quote from just cars for $1850 full comp with all mods listed (bit of an excess - but I can cover that if need be)

always helps having a 40% NCB :D

Oh - and i check Bam's car in about and hour!!

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything
