I like to thank theo for "Misleading" me when i bought my skyline from brisbane street machines.

luckily he sold me warranty which paid for most of the problems i had.

I would REALLY like to thank all the guys and gals on this forum for arming me with the information to make a better choice next time. As well as the info to get in and work on my car myself.

theo, thanks for making s.e. qld proud for having one of these fast gtr in australia that is still driven on street :(
I'd like to thank Theo for providing me with a blown rb20det years ago to help me build my NA+turbo monster. Without him being the only bloke that didn't say "don't do it" I probably never would have stuck with Skylines.

I'd also like to thank Theo for breaking out at Jambo so us slow buggers got some more runs in :wassup:

Whats the problem with someone thanking sponsors for all the work they put into someones car ?    I think some of you are just jealous that you don't have the brains to build something like that yourself

Not jealous just amazed that someone can build such a good machine from the misfortune of others. Why thank sponsors when the car buyers (probably a few people here) actually payed for the car and alot of whats on it; and they are the ones reading this...

Wow its a fast car, personally my self respect and dignity is more important than a car.

That said; anyone could build that car with the equivelant money and sponsors, weather or not you could drive it properly is another question :headspin:

Yes its true that the cars they sell are way, way over average prices.. but lets not forget that these guys have a lot of overheads compared to when you import personally.

Especially when you have to consider that most of their cars sit on the lot for a very long time, when they do sell the car they have to have a lot of margin or they'll go out of business.

Some people like the convenience of buying frmo a dealer because you can have the car straight away and there is a warranty, but other than that the person should know better in the first place.

I remember walking into a certain car yard in brisbane *cough* two years ago with an ATM bank statement well into the six figures after selling a business and looking for a new car. I was pumped to buy an R33 GTR, and I couldnt even get into one for a test drive to see what they drove like because certain car sales people where too lazy to show me one and probably thought I was too young to have any money. The guys where impossible to deal with and didnt want to know me. Not a great business attitude.

And knore: 'anyone can build a car to go that fast with enough money and sponsors', theo has acheived a lot more than what most people with money and sponsors have been able to do.

With bitching aside, Congratulations on getting into the 9s on Federals, theo, respect for that.

I own and build the car myself. The car is not owned by Brisbane Street Machines, I bought the car from here. I work here i don't own the place. I thanked my sponser on the site because most of you want performance parts and if these guys can look after me then they can look after you at the right price to. I am sure all of you would like the go fast parts at the right price

Regards Theo

:)

Just remember that we are the only 2.6ltr ever in australia to run a 9 second pass

Care to share your experience? I have yet to buy car from street machines, But Theo was more then happy to talk GTR’s and performance parts forever and a day.

I know where I’ll be buying my R` from.

Josh.

    • No need to drill any holes. There's plenty of access to reach through and behind all of that steel to "push" from behind with a pulling action on the slide hammer. There's all sorts of attachments you can screw on the end of them.
    • Yea the photos aren't the best. When I was pulling the bumper and headlights out there was a bodyshop guy looking on for it, there is a slight bend behind where the passenger headlight is, but we're talking a few MM and there is a little bit of a bend for the reo. That said it's supposedly well within the "Drill a hole in it and pull it out with a slide hammer to be close enough" and be on our way. The other option is to buy a GTR reo for the GTR bumper bits but this is a $2000+ fix for something Mr Hammer can probably do 99% of the job for and everything will/can line up pretty closely-to-good-enough.
    • That's a write off for sure... Part out? 😛 I kid. It looks like the rad support has a minor minor bend in it too where the rep support sits near. Could just be the photos (and me not wearing my glasses right now). Worst case is you can buy a new radiator support, have it swapped over, and leave the car in paint jail for 12 to 18 months while you build the motor to handle twin turbos or a Harrop SC...
    • It seems the definition of "Gregging" something might need to be expanded?
    • This is why I suggested that there is really nothing that can safely be done in the engine bay at this budget level. Just the work to reassure yourself that the engine won't instantly crap itself the moment the boost gets turned up will wear out the piggy bank long before the first turbo gets installed. Spend $10k and still not have any extra performance? My tip is a version of our standard advice from 15 years ago about buying a GTR, which is not to buy one unless you can afford to buy two. The new version is not to modify a GTR unless you have all the funds required to do it all at once, properly, and enough to rebuild it after it blows up.
