Melbourne Men Lend me your Ears

[SliM]

hi guys , once again i wanna just say i am totally thxful for the support.

Now what i am going to ask might sound a lil mean to some but i ask coz i think it is the best course of action. i not really 100% about buying a car, it depends ona few certain situations but would someone be able to check the car out for me, preferably someone with a R34 GTT who knows his stuff about the car. i cant pay you for the job so i ask that someone pockets the burden in their free time. it is no imperative that someone should do it, only if people have the free time and are interested coz i cant pay.

OK guys. I'm going to organize to go and see this car and just checking who wants to tag along? I was thinking this weekend if it suites him. Any preference in days? SatSun?

[paulr33]

Im free and can come down if you need some numbers

[R34GTT]

Hey SliM, might as well come look at my car too hehehe, I'm da one with the white one with the C/F bonnet hehehe

[adznight]

Anyone else keen to come??? Daz? Ash? GTTR34?

[NismoR34]

I may tag along depending on the day and time you go

[bbSKYGIRL]

gee the guy selling the car will be in for a shock when he sees 4 blokes rocking up in their R34's checking his car out

i think he'll be a bit worried too coz he'll know that u guys know your stuff

[adznight]

You gonna tag along? That reminds me, better call him!

[Snowman]

Hey if you are going tomorrow I might tag along in my current Ultra ricey R34. My car looks even crazier than yours currently Adz!

[adznight]

OK guys and girls. 1pm tomorrow is the time. Just waiting for the address. When I find out I'll post and work out a meet point. We can go for a cruise from there.

[adznight]

Well if your reading this thread you know the deal

Here are the details -

1st meet point - 12:00pm Glen Waverly - Mc Donalds (cnr High St and Springvale Rd)

2nd meet point - 12:30pm-12:45pm - Evo R Clayton (cnr Westall Rd and Centre Rd)

Should give us a chance to have a look at N1 Distribution and Evo R, both stacked to the roof with cool performance gear!

From there we will head to the unsuspecting sellers house and check out this machine

[krzysiu]

[bbSKYGIRL]

OCEANS 11 Look out, coz here comes OCEANS SAU Style

:)

Adz, that's some serious planning there mate , to the unsuspecting they'd think your were organising a casino job.

I will see you guys down at Evo-R / N1 around 12:30 - but i won't go to the guys place unless you told him that a few people will be coming to check it out - I personally don't think its a nice thing to do to someone - unsuspectingly, have all these ppl rocking up.

cheers

elad.

[SootyR32]

It's the coolest thing I've heard of in a while. It'll teach the current owner for not being a SAU member!

[adznight]

OK, well the jobs done, in and out without a hitch

But on a serious note four of us went down and checked the car out and took some pics for you SliM. PM me your e-mail and we can have a chat about it but overall seems like a resoanble buy. I think he'd be keen to work out a luck golden special price for you too as I get the feeling he's keen to move it as he's heading back to malaysia.

I so want those Defi gauges too!

Nice GTR wing

18" 265's on Nisan 5 spoke mags (must say I've never seen these wheels)

Big front mount with Top Secret front bar

[adznight]

Engine bay a little dirty but overall in good condition. Looks like a big stereo setup

Another engine bay pic

Defi gauges, SAFC, HKS boost EVC, Alpine head unit and a turbo timer

Auto......

The car and it's owner thinking "holy crap batman, what is going on!"

[NismoR34]

Some things I picked up:

There was a second B.O.V plumbed [t-piece] into the intake, a Blitz item possibly SSQ / Supersonic type. Look at the engine pic from the side and you'll notice an extra vacuum hose running along the intercooler pipes to the front - the blitz bov sits underneath the air intake snorkel - the owner had no idea that it was even there - factory bov is also fitted and working so you can choose how you want to run it: stock, or not!

C.A.S timing was set to a fairly retarded setting - not really a problem but I would be setting to 15+ degrees personally! Owner told me he always uses Optimax so thats a plus!

I thought the front bar had a crack in it, I could be wrong though, around the centre at the bottom - can't see clearly in pic.

I actually saw this car when it was in a car yard in Melb - Success Motor Imports, Nepean hwy, [now closed, victims of RAWS i guess]. This owner bought it from them approx. 18 months ago I think he said.

Adam test drove it a little so you can discuss that via email. Though he did say "the clutch was different in this car"??? I don't know what clutch he was using??? Sorry mate it had to be said, needless to say we all had a chuckle

A generally nice looking car, the owner added the GTR wing & front bar himself and I assume the gauges / electric extras as they were not on the car in the car yard - wheels were though, nice wheels! Not sure if they are actually Nissan wheels or just centre caps?

I didn't check or ask what suspension it had but it sat nice and low at both ends - again Adam can tell you what he thought of the driving characteristics.

Couldn't figure out I/C brand and owner didnt know either but it was a decent size!

Some loose wiring hanging out the back of the headlight [see side engine pic and you can spot a blue wire or 2] which seemed a bit odd as: headlight assembly's are the Halogen type [not Xenon] so I assume the globes are halogen also. These are the compliance headlights, maybe he has done a Xenon conversion but I don't think so. Everything else under the bonnet looked as it should.

Plenty of extras and a nice looking car for that price I think

[NismoR34]

Oh yeah nice pics Adz, did you get one of the "Line" up?

I didnt even know you were taking shots you bastard, I would have posed
