So i brought a boat...

How's everyone going? Just a shout-out introducing myself. I'm James, I live on the north side of Brisbane. I bought an R33 that had been left to rot in someone's front yard for 14 years. Apparently, it has immobiliser/fuel issues. Long story short, it's suffering from a seized engine, plus whatever else turns up once it runs. The car is pretty good considering it sat for so long. It pretty much died after being imported. It has a bunch of Jap parts and a full Top Secret body kit. It's painted Fiat Turchese Festival, or aqua blue if you're not French. Another project to throw money at!

Welcome James.....will be interesting to see how much fun there is in the project.

.....where's the pics?

[GTSBoy]

He can't post pics until he's at 10 post count.

@PranK, why do we have this restriction? Because photos are the first thing that gets asked of new people on the forums. Do the spam bots post photos if allowed?

[Kinkstaah]

I mean he could post them to imgur or the like and create a link. But yeah, spam bots absolutely will post pictures in their first posts.

And also there were for sale scams and the like. For sale posts need piccies, and not having piccies makes it harder to do a driveby scam.

Keen to see how much work is needed to get an abandoned Skyline going.

My R32 has been sitting idle for three years or so but finally got some time to get it going again.

(Also lurking SAU and trying to hit 10 posts so I can start my own intro thread with pics)

Jump into the wasteland.

Plenty of random posting/chatting going on in there.

I reached 10 posts and wanted to make my build thread too but still can't add pictures to posts so I have no idea how it works 😂

Hey, no biggie. It happens at 15 posts but you've already proven you're not a spammer so I've added you to the group. You should have no issues now. 👍

Needs more Samsonas or ZF8HP, modern twin scroll turbo setup, big dose.

[Nick0]

Pics please!

[PotatoCake]

Looking forward to the build thread!
