My GC8 Daily
 
I love cars, i always have and think i always will. Wether it be Japanese or euro and even a lot of Aussie stuff floats my boat.

I worked for auto classic for 3yrs selling New BMW's. (awesome job).

Now im at uni (Civil Eng, Curtin) and working for a Civil Structural Engineering firm in Myaree.

Cars:

95 Nissan Skyline. 507rwhp. few pics in the other thread.

NEW CAR.

Clearly a 1999 GC8

As most of you know this was advertised 'for sale' on this forum.

the car has come with

Apexi power fc & Z32 AFM <- NISSAN PART :)

Ej207 forged sti block, bored out .5mm
Cosworth main & rod bearings & head gaskets
Wiseco forged pistons
Arp head studs
Vf 23 turbo @ 12psi
Gd sti top mount intercooler
Silicon piping
4.11 gear box + diffs
King lowering springs
Lenso 18" rims

It also came with 1 key, a1 locksmiths ($140)
shot brakes
stuffed suspension

body of the car is in pretty average condition and the interior needs a good clean and i will be chasing a few interior pieces, but have no fear i will bring this car back as i think its got lots of potential.

I will try to document as much of the car as possible.

So far i have bought

HKS cat back (i dont think this cooled down off Sayers WRX when i got it.)

tuned length manifolds (need CIC treatment) Thanks Robin from gibbo's on south Street ([URL="http://www.perth-wrx.com/vb/?quot;]wrxfiend[/URL]=

HR 50mm HSD's from Joe, thank mate, guys he is a legend :icon_salu.

New rotors and pads all round (Bart, south west Brakes :cool:)

Sweet looking classic, love the wingless look

Nice car mate! It's been around PWRX for a while now. Saw it at Curtin the other day and it's still looking good. Nice purchase!

mattmy99 24-09-2010 08:04 PM

Just coz your forum is a "reported attack site"...


Looks good mate. Sounds like you've got a good base to start on, and some nice plans for it.

cougermoon 24-09-2010 08:55 PM

looks good mate cant wait to see what u do with it

Sayers 24-09-2010 10:49 PM

I'll be following with interest and you're not wrong about the catback. It only came off my car that afternoon!
