quite a list you have there! Welcome aboard, why are you selling it, just out of interest?

Oh and a word of warning, stay away from a certain member called "Budgie" He gets rather excited when there is a new bluebird attessa around. ;D

nah, ur right, not ur fault its in nsw, or is it....  :P

anyways, couldn't tell u if i'd sell well here. i'm thinkin its got an equal chance of being sold here or nsw. if i ever hav a crash (heaven forbid  ;D) in the near future and i gotta get a new car, i might come-a-knockin...

good luck with the sale in the meantime

hehe i own a bluey aswell, just went the front mount option with the cooler, and all i can say is keep the bluey, wrx's dont stand a chance against em, and we also have the advantage of surprise up our sleeves hehe, good luck with selling it aswell.

even with the travel to go and look at it guys, unless it has been seriously mistreated which it doesnt look like it has, we have the resources to fix it here, the wealth of info from the bluey guys here would solve most problems.

soz, shameless plug for a bluey, good to have more here thats for sure

nah mines pillared, did look at a pillarless model in sydney when i bought this one, was a nice car but i decided to buy a non modded one to start from scratch for myself. its worked out very well for me, you'd love it with a front mount cooler aswell. awesome cars.

how do you reckon your wrx would go against it??

wrx is stock standard,
honestly bluebird feels faster to drive,sounds great,intake noise especially,
but the wrx would just get it i reckon,
but for the money the bluebird is a better option,very reliable,
new clutch was the key for me,totally different car to drive

we have been trying to find out definate numbers, but unfortunately we have had no luck, our best bet would be less than 100 blueys full stop, whether pillared or pillarless

The 'Saloon' U12 is what Nissan sold as the Pintara. Bit boxier, but strong. Body of choice for the SSS-R Rally spec bluebird.

The 'Hardtop' is the pillarless. The top half of the middle B pillar between the doors is missing. You can wind down the windows and pass a matress or something like that through the car 8) That, and the windows have no frames around the glass (Much like many recentish (<10 years?) subarus). I also think the roof is a bit different, lower, and the back windscreen is sloped more, with a smaller boot lid. The back has tail lights quite similar to a 180sx. I think they look very sleek.

I reckon your going to get a hell of a biased opinion here, and I'm going to join in and say your a dummy for selling it :P ;D

WRX's, Skylines, Evos and what have you, IMO just don't have that something special which the Bluebird does.

Hey U12sr20,

Are you running lower springs in your car?  If so, are they for another car or are they custom made?

Ah ok, so will king have the dimensions and specifcations?  Did you lend them your springs or get a second set?

I've edited your post as the 'all uppercase' thing is a pet hate around here mate.  Just type in lower case for now, unless your really excited because you sold your car :P

I don't like pokies. I play them, only to loose money and I don't find them terribly entertaining or exciting or anything else good during the process. Hell, it's bad when you think "Yay I won" when it flickers and beeps in a positive manner because you lined something up in one of those impossible-to-understand configurations, but you only win say 25c when you bet 50c.

I might feed a few bucks in if I'm around with some time to spare, but I think I can safely assume I'm definatly not going to become one of those loose-my-family-and-house-and-job-big-debts-omg gambling addict people.

yeah i hate the pokies! if me and me mates ever do go to the casino (usually only once or twice a year), we usually hit the blackjack tables. then if we ever get a bit of collateral from that, we play carrabean stud poker. Usually i end up either $50 down (my limit) or break even. but i hav on occasions walked out of there with $100-odd in me pocket! the most i've ever won is about $200. It 'twas a big night that one....
If somebody asks you, "can I ask you a question?" and you say, "no",  you're actually answering a question. Think about it....
