I lost my shit and sold everything a few years ago (my house, car, everything!). I practically gave my mate my GT-R but he’s let me buy the car back off him (he could easily have sold it for 3 times what I sold it to him for). Karma is a beautiful thing. I’m SO chuffed RB26 is mine once more!

Love the comments!

The real deal. Broken rice at Com Tam Ngon in Canley Heights.

Drove out West today to catch up with Zi and the boys. Zi and I discussed plans for RB26 and happy to say that we’re both on the same page with where we want to take the car. We’re thinking “Club Spec”. Take half the cage out, put new carpet back in, air-conditioning back in and a whole lot of new OEM and Nismo parts both inside and out. The engine will need a refresh and I have the option of sending the body to Melbourne for a full rotisserie restoration or just organise a local inside/out respray.

Honestly, if I was living in my dream house with my dream garage I’d go the full body resto, but I’m not so for now I’ll settle for a full inside out respray. Either way the ball is rolling!

RB26 is mine, again!

rb26_memory
OK now this is fucking creepy. I just logged on to Facebook and this pops up!

Miraculous coincidences that used to blow my fucking socks off now just leave me with affirmation that the universe does what it does.

Zi reached out to me this morning to let me know that he’s buying a house, and might need to sell the GT-R. Of-course I was quick to let him know that the car is not mine anymore. It’s his, and he can do with it what he likes, but then it hit me like a 2 tonne heavy thing. I have the money. I have the space. Can I buy it back?!

Of-course Zi was reaching out to see if I would want the car back! I was just caught off guard. Happy (actually fucking pumped!) to say we’re sorting it out now and soon RB26 will be mine, again!

PS: I logged in to Facebook hours after Zi and I spoke and BAM! Look what Facebook was suggesting as a memory from 10 years ago!

Sold the house so I thought I’d buy myself a new ride

Spotted.

I used to dream of owning a GT3. Now that I can quite comfortably afford one I’m honestly not at all interested in owning one. On the one hand I’m happy to see the old ZEN plates on such a rad car, but on the other I just wish they were on something more original.
