Think i saw this the other day, pretty rare colour if its original. Very clean good looking car. Any plans to lower it...

Pal
28-12-2010, 03:49 PM
not at the moment. the exhaust hangs pretty low and if i lower it , it will scrape on everything. has the correct color on the id plate so is a original LM

Bought it off a certain SAUWA member I believe ;) Nice pickup man.

Pal

Dude, he would have. That's a hell of a nice car mate. Look forward to seeing what you do with it :)

not much at the moment, needs a tune badly and front discs need replacing and front tint will be replaced as its to dark. other than that, im very happy with it and will be left as it is.

Nice pickup! keen on those rims if u decide to part ;)

Pal
28-12-2010, 05:01 PM
they are huge, nismo rays lm-gt1's 18 by 10 with 275/35/18 toyos. think they are pretty rare as well

its a very very clean car and has some decent mods done to it already!

i have to be honest about the colour though, im not a fan :(

doesnt it have a pfc in it right now? how come it needs a retune?

stormtrooper
28-12-2010, 05:39 PM
Also, you need a specs list and shit yo :)

Nismo Rays LM-GT1 Wheels 18x10 all-round with Toyo Proxe 275/18/35 rubber.
Power FC with hand controller
HKS Hi Power Silent Cat Back Exhaust
Tomei Cam Gears with clear cam cover
19 Row Oil Cooler with Relocator
GReedy Profec B Boost controller
GReedy Turbo Timer
Autometer Boost Guage in PSI
Apexi Induction Kit
Clear Side and Front indicators
Rear strut bar

thats about it, everything else stock but still handles like a big gocart

dont think its been retuned in a few years and is running a bit rich, getting alot of popping out of exhaust

those rims look very nice , what are they??

Nice pick up there. 1 of 98 is nice and rare. Needs lowering and some rims to complement the colour though. I wouldnt trust that young Haines in the first picture though :)

Pal
28-12-2010, 06:57 PM
lol, what do you guys think the rims on it are worth?? bit of curb damage and tyres have about 65% left on them

Daveo
28-12-2010, 07:06 PM
Back in the day alot... They might be worth abit mre because they are gold otherwise a set of silver LMgt1s are worth around $800ish depending on condition

I think i passed you on High road today. If so, check your left indicator globes, one might be blown. Also put front lip back on :p

definitely consider getting ur hands on a set of those wheels that r posted above.. drools.. they look like volks?

Nice car I like the colour. Something different

those rims look like volk CE28's

Probably suggest you keep those rims in the shed if you do decide to go something else, genuine issue on that particular car from memory. Might help with resale / genuine restoration either way later on.

Those photos don't do the colour any justice, looks nicer in the flesh.

Pal
30-12-2010, 09:31 PM
think im gunna keep them on there. think they will look nicer with the car lowered a bit, also i think the profile on the tyres are wrong, they are 35's and i think they need to be 40's

SimonR32
30-12-2010, 11:13 PM
I think just the colour is wrong...

Get them powder coated :)

Hot car, the rims are Volk GT-N1s on the other image posted....

Glad to hear it's going to be looked after...
Was an awesome car and Rohan definitely looked after it. Only launched once when he had it from 4k and with the limiter set on 7, it definitely never saw any hard driving.

Million times better... GL with it mate, will be checking back now and then.

Those rims would be worth a lot more than 800, purely cause they are the biggest size you can get them (fairly sure). Oh and they aren't factory issue. All LMs came with stock R33 GTR wheels.

Pal
31-12-2010, 11:29 AM
hmm, i really like the look of the black with the blue highlight

RH8 GTR
31-12-2010, 04:49 PM
Yes! Very nice pick up mate :) If i didnt get the one i got, it would be this one for sure!!

As said before, colour looks 10x better in the flesh. Good to see it went to another enthusiast!

Now that is a bold blue colour!

nice pickup Eric... bit of an upgrade over the old 33

Pal
04-01-2011, 11:35 PM
a big upgrade over the old 33, still, i had that car for 6 years and it done me very well. hopefully this one does the same :)

LM-GT1 in silver look hardcore!.

My mistake.. bad memory, seems it was the 400R that had those wheels standard.

Silver does look nice, against that blue though?

Looks awesome. WTF is that piece of shit behind it in the last photo though? Rusty clapped out old big of steel?

IMO the rims need to be powdercoated white, but I don't reckon you need to move away from the LMs.

Pal
05-01-2011, 04:44 PM
they were initially white i think, then the previous owner powder coated them gold. was just on read st, cheers for the comment. the big rusty hunk is this beast.

Yeah, but it's not a Charger fellas. Just a plain jane poverty pack Valiant four door. I did have a Charger hence the name but sold it last year. This old bus is getting there slowly though.
