yeah...you do need to be careful, especially with GTRs. A friend of mine recently went to have a look at a GTR which the owner had assured him was in original showroom condition.

Upon inspection, he discovered that this was far from the truth. The car had been resprayed in a non factory colour, it had dodgy fibreglass bonnet and bumper, it had platic undertrays and other bits and pieces missing.

Luckily my friend picked up on these things...I feel sorry for other people who aren't so lucky...

Mik, you know that it was my car that your talking about, and that it was considered to be the best GTR for $30k in OZ. But when someone offers $25k for a genuine GTR they deserve to be ripped off for paying $34k for a GTS-4.

The car was in magnificent condition and having a few extras enhances a car and doesnt mean it is not in showroom condition.

Everyone that saw my car thought it was worth the money, but the big turn off was the 85k on the clock.

Plus remember they could see my car on the net before they came.

NO Im sorry but a mint condition R33 GTR is worth more than $25k

      Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?

      Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!

      It just depends if you're like me with a high level of OCD for doing something like hardlines, and highly critical of the little things, and then bugger all patience to get it how my brain pictures it

      More than happy with the colour match Talking to the painter he recommended to give the top a few weeks for the paint to 100% cure prior to sealing it with the ceramic stuff Also, because why not..... I have a fancy pants Fluidampr harmonic balancer on order, the 2.5 engine uses the OEM 2.0 balancer off the old motor as the 2.5 balancer is a larger unit and doesn't fit clearance wise, which, because the two engines have different harmonics, isn't optimal, the OEM balancer does the job, but as the gear driven balancer in the bottom end is removed to fit a RWD application there is slightly more vibration, the Fluidampr helps with the harmonics that the gear driven balancer once took care of,  basically makes life easier on the oil pump and bearings when thrashing it around Hopefully the weather gets better soon because I'm keen for some cruising around, and currently, with the winds and storms we are getting, the amount of detritus being blown around from trees on the road isn't something I want to be driving around in
