leech - Car looks great. Very nice ;)

I might be in the market for a black series 2 in a few months too !!! I had a phone call yesterday from the assessor that is dealing with my car accident, and he said it was a write off ;) So I'll be looking for another once the money comes through...

Sounds like SVI have been treating you good :)

Hi Jay - good to hear from you - was wondering what was happening with your car! I don't suppose you can get at any of the bits off the car - you would probably make a few bucks selling them off---

Anyway - if you change your mind at decide to look at a white r33 with big chromies and exhaust then PM me - mine is for sale!!! ;);)

hey jay good to hear you may beback on the road with another line. SVI have been good to me i will admit very informative and keeping me in the loop. IT is also good that they tell you what the cost will be after everything eg the car, shipping, complience etc etc. that is the main reason i didnt go with Prestiege as they were like we can get you the car for like 22K but the disclaimer says doesnt include tyres changing items etc... only thing i will say is set a budget and stick to it though. i was told for what i wanted it should be between 22 - 24k however this one that i bought went for a little more at auction and i had agreed increase my max to the 25k just as a safe gaurd... oh well i am getting exactly what i want so i cant complain to much. and a few extra $$$'s now may save me a couple of thousand later.

Well i know you are all getting very sick and tired of me raving about the car hehe but SVI have now picked it up and taken it back to get complience done WOOT also the stereo was not stolen so i am pretty happy with that considering i still got my alpine one from the pulsar... i will see which is better then sell the other bits off for a few $$$. anyways here are a few more pics and a big thumbs up to SVI again been great through the whole experiance mick even did a walk around of the car for me tl tell me exactly what may need the dent doctor and what wouldnt all up he said it was pretty damn good eg a couple of pin size dints and one small dint i think...

so yea the 4th picture looks the best :P

    • A universal ball joint removal c press kit is better money spent and will work for the Hicas ball joints.  Here's a 45$ CAD Example. ATPEAM Heavy Duty Ball Joint Press Kit with 4WD Adapters | Professional 4 in 1 Ball Joint Press Removal and Installation Tool for Cars and Trucks | Universal Ball Joint Tool with Storage Case, Ball Joint & Tie Rod Tools - Amazon Canada
    • True on both points
    • So there is no other way to remove and install the ball joints then to buy the Frenchys kit?
    • Just to close off this post with the cause of my oil consumption issues. Vertical scoring and glazing at the bottom of cylinder 6. I'm not happy, but at least I finally found something. I'll pull it and get it apart asap. Hopefully I don't need to go one size up in piston. 
    • I finally got around to purchasing an actual articulating borescope. Great tool to have, I've been very impressed vs my old regular inspection camera.  With that being said, sadly I finally found the cause for my oil consumption. I always had the feeling something wasn't right but compression and leak down tests were always perfect and I had already inspected the cylinders. This time i dropped each cylinder to its absolute lowest point and with the better quality camera I found this... Bottom of cylinder 6.  Scoring looks deep and I'm presuming oil getting by caused the glazing. I already spoke with my assembler, and will be dropping it off as soon as I can pull the motor and get it apart. I'm just hoping it's not deep enough to require boring out from 86.5 ->87mm. Pistons aren't cheap.
