My name is Cameron or chaos and for the last 3 days Ive spent 14hrs logged in at antrx, who needs sleep anyway.
 I am located on the south side of Brizzy. I recently became the proud owner of a white 91' TRX . Its got 2.5" exhaust, extractors and the ka24e in the engine bay was apparently reconditioned 2 years ago -i have my doubts though. Unfortunately and hopfully someone could help me with this, the guy i bought it off managed to put a very nice dint in the front and rear bumpers. Thankfully thats the only majour work to put into the exterior. I live in Brisbane and i rang every wreckers in the yellow pages but could only find a rear bumper and at $175 it sounds a bit over priced to me...? Any suggestions on asking price for the u12 front and rear bumpers. I wanna get the body work sorted so i can start work on the engine. High flow cat and CAI are next up then hopfully a head swap to the ka24de, chip and performance cams. I have thought about this ALOT but any feedback is good.

Hey Cameron, welcome to the site.

The bumpers on your car aren't hard to fix, you basically have to take the plastic skin off, straighten up the metal bar behind as best you can, then put the plastic skin back on. Then leave it parked in the sun for a few days until the bumper works its way back into shape and get the paint patched up. I've done it to my front bumper a couple of times  ::)

Check out the Qld section of the site, we should be organising another meet soon, you should come meet the gang!

What part of the southside are you from? I'm from daisy hill.

Hey Alan welcome aboard matey.

Just one question, does the HKS air filter really need an amp to run it??  ;D

Well, another NEWBIE...

I just found this site on google while i was looking for info on pintara's and so i joined - its awesome! so anyway I'm Rhys from Brissy and i own a white 1991 Pintara T sedan, at first i wasn't to keen on it but i really think this is a pretty great car now that i have had it for around two weeks. the cars in pretty good Nick except for two random rattles and a little fadding on the paint work which was fixed with heavy duty cut and polish and a three step wax kit ;D - it shines now. I dont really plan any great mods except for things like wheels and tyres until i get the money rolling in, but at the moment its super stock with the stock rims and even stock radio  :D wooooo. anyway just thought that i should introduce myself in here first to get myself out there and will hopefully be posting soon.

Hey hey! My name's Simon, I'm 19. I drive a '92 U12 Pintara GLi. It's far from anything special, but when I brought it, it was in pretty good nick, with only 82,700km on the clock when I got it in Feb this year. Oh, by the way, I'm in the south-east side of Melbourne.
The front of the car has a few stone chips as well as the windshield, but the paint is in pretty good condition.

It came with with a small aftermarket muffler, JVC speakers, a green numberplate light, and some tiny 15'' 8 spoke wheels.

Since then I've put in:
- Kenwood MP3 player
- Got some gas shockers and struts (the ride is nice and firm now!)
- Put in a Tachometer
- And had the gearbox and cluth replaced.

Oh, I nearly forgot! My car produces a tiny 58.6Kw at around 5,600RPM :P ...I think.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to spending alot of time here  ;D

Hello everyone I'm new to dis site, I'm from Connecticut in the US, i searched high and low and think i finally found people who know what there talking about.. I have a 91 Nissan stanza U12 gutted ready for the ka24de swap and a 90 Nissan stanza u12 5 spd that has a built ka24e in from HRT performance ( soon to be turbo'd by JGY Customs).

Hey all long time member (at least a year) first time posting never saw the need anyways thought i would start as i have taken possession of my first nissan an N13 Exa wont be on the road for a couple of weeks though as i am waiting for a full BN style kit including bonnet, vented quarter panels, skirts, front and rear bars. It's a CA18DE however if i can find a front or 4wd DET for the right price this may also happen in the next couple of weeks. Great site you have got going here please bare with me as i learn my way around

hey all
im AJ and im from south carolina, usa. i drive a 92 stanza (manual) with 164k miles and its bone stock, cept for some infiniti g20 15" wheels with some nissan caps from ebay. it was my daily driver until i got a pickup, now i keep it as my weekend beater and highway play-thing. its the best car i have ever owned, and should anything happen to it i would find an exact replacement, or a jdm bluebird. my ultimate dream for this car, however unlikely and expensive, is an sr20det+awd tranny swap.
