      I want to congratulate you in advance for a great car you will be having. It is in good hands.
      And yes, one day this actual car ( if it will be around not crashed ), will be 1 Million Dollar. Probably after Larry won't be alive.

    You guys should start rebuilding the ABS pumps, they're not as difficult as you might think. We do heaps of them in NZ. Majority of the leaks are just the orings on the 4 tubes that sit between the valves. But all the orings in them are pretty easily replicable.

    I've only ever had "abs" come on in the winter time with snow and ice. And I fucking HATE when it kicks on and the pedal goes waaaay down and it just keeps moving forward. I hit a 90° turn in my cobalt ss and hit rocks on the edge....started sliding to the curb when I hit the brakes. No abs came on, but I just let off the brakes for a millisecond and back on the gas. No problem

I'd do the same thing too for a street R32 GtR.. something different for a change and different wheels besides the Usual Oem , te37SL, ce28n, Work Wheels, Nismo wheels, . A different wheel option that brings out the and compliment the bodyline of the R32.
