    My car named Jolie =)

    Hey, as some of you may know my name is Peter. The close's thing I ever had to a R32 GTR were my little Skyline models. The reason why I got one is not because of the Track or Dyno numbers. Moreover just because I want to complete one of the many goals in my life. anddd thats owning one of these great cars. I've been quietly observing for the last couple of months and finally after waiting for 4 and a half months, my car arrives.

    It's been a looooong wait and I think thats what caused my
    car to have some issues. I was told it was simple things like Maf sensors, and Spark plugs, and basicially every little thing that makes your car not work properly.

    Some mods on the car are..

    - HKS exhaust
    - HKS intake
    - Advan wheels
    - Teins Coils ( not sure if they are adjustable )
    - Full Nismo bodykit

    somethings im planning to put on

    - Blitz Dual Drive Bov
    - JzGarage's Angel Eyes Conversion Kit
    6000k Artic white HID's Conversion Kit
    - Clifford 2 way alarm/auto starter (cars seem to go missing fast these days)

    many more little things to come..


    This is what my car looked like in Japan..




    Sadly it was damaged on the way to the harbour..







    The night I picked it up in Vancouver



    and 4 days later



    thats me on the faaar left. =D


    these are the things i found in my car
    also found 2 road flares, I wonder what I should do with them.. O_o


    One thing is I've been having a little bit of trouble getting the car registered. Basicially I took all the forms and papers that I have to the auto plan insurance broker and they told me that I was MISSING the bill of sale from the LAST OWNER that sold it to the Dealership in Japan. And I'm basicially sitting here going "How the heck am I supposed to get that" :-?


    Anyways, it's been fun so far

    Welcome to the boards.

    Car looks clean on the inside, and bummer about the damage on the way to the dock. Compression is real low though, and what size tire is it running in the back, looks like a high offset rim.

    Hopefully you get it registered, waiting is painful enough!!!

    Try going to a different insurance broker, some of them let things slip...Mostly because they don't know the rules... Try going to a rural area... lol

    Not condoning illegal activities, but

    It's your car, we know it's your car...You should have it registered! Or I think you can call ICBC and there is a way around it...
