un-repairable, A pillar is damaged, in QLD thats an instant Write off. I would be very careful and check with your insurance company before placing a bid,

We're using it for our supercharged mx-5 at the moment and it's totally freakin' awesome, launch control, rev limiters i love it. Dropped our (non charged) 0-100klm time from 9.6 to 8.1 seconds. Definately a good buy.Ty

i wouldn't bother from the look of those pic's its deffinately a rattle can job, and not a good one at that lol. Although the hard work of the conversion is done, you don't know what corners have been cut. Rust was probably bogged, if the guy was cheap enough to use a rattle can than that doesn't say much for the quality of the rest of the build. Be careful but go and look at it for the rest of us lol...

Know exactly what you want when you ask around other wise you'll probably get screwed!
If your keeping the same colour, go fo a closed door respray, they're reasonably cheap these days and offer to help to rub it back, you'd be surprised how many panelbeaters etc are more than happy to let you help out a bit. I learnt a lot even from just observing.

R31's have a U shaped bracket that splits the wires into two, they then run over the tailshaft and to each caliper, go to a wrecker and take the bracket out, just above the tailshaft near the transmission, is a bitch to get to but worth it. Then you only need to get the cables cut and re crimped (professionally) to the right length. I'll be doing this shortly so i'll try and take some pics.

I intend to keep one leaf on each side, and fit up a pair of adjustable coilovers, Caltrac with diagonal arms too. It just eliminates the extra force by spreading it more evenly.

my 120y had next to no brakes, auto, flat to the floor doing about 85klm down the highway!, the seatbelts didn't have clips on the bottom, brake lights didn't work, headlights didn't work, no indicators, but it started first go too lol. I love my 120y.

dude...
