i'll watch it later on today.. doesnt need much to fix by the look of things. bar bonnet guard grill...

was thinking about getting back into one and selling the evo.. but its a bit soon..

was it anyones here??

its crazy they pay out cars with so little damage the cost of the parts from nissan must be huge. 10k atleast..

my guess is about 8-10k auction price..

someone could have a nice looking axis for about 15k on the road.. however not in nsw.

Yeah the quote he received for new parts was fairly excessive. You could technically have it on the road for a lot less, but I think to repair a write off you need proof that quality parts were used? Either way, the breakdown for new parts was:

New parts from NISSAN japan come to a total of $14K.....

brief breakdown;

Bonnet - $3.7K

LH Headlamp - $2.2K

Bumper - $2.3K

Grille - $1.8K

Radiator support panel - $1.4K

Quality parts no, just need to provide receipts of parts used.. this was done to stop the people stealing cars. stripping them out, buying them back at auction and re fitting all the parts.. good ol sneaky Bankstown eh?

will have to long on soon to check it out.. will be up around 1pm today

will let you all know here what it makes..

I'd say you could have had that on road for 9k...

however i just read the info forum.. and the insurance company offered it back to him for 6K?

i expect to see this up next week again.. passed intoday possibly..

  • 1 year later...

Gents, this was my wifey's old Axis....definitely was only cosmetic damage but got paid out and 48hrs funds were in my account. It went for $3200. Ins offered it back to me for $6K.

The guy that purchased it was a panel beater so lucky for him all his labour to get it back on the road was free. It did still set him back about $5K in parts. It was going to cost me all up $10-11K to have back on the road AND having said that it will of have the repairable writeoff against it's VIN history.....

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
