  1. Probably hard to grow corn or sugar cane up there.
  2. that is true, if you have the capabilities of working on the engines, the Passat et. al. is good value with heaps of features.
  3. Don't bag the Prius, they hammer for an economy car. OP, don't bother with parts exchange (it's useless), try importing a complete turbo front cut. That way you get the brakes and other bits for engine conversion. Heaps of Cefiros get drifted and crashed. They will suffer from JDM tax sadly, so save up and be patient. Hell you could even throw in an RB25DE from R33/R34 in, they're pretty decent to rev out. There have been a few done on R31s here in Australia.
  4. If you make it multiple parts, can perhaps get Jaycar to 3D print for you. Or maybe Boosted Int. can help you out? He's done a heap of Nissan stuff.
  5. Yuck VAG. I recently went through this. Hatches/small cars were heavily inflated. I found Accord Euro to be a good deal. CL9s easily go for less than $10k, I bought a base CU2 for $11k last year (130k km, serviced at Hani's or whatever that Honda garage near Cabra is called). My cousin picked up a half decent CL9 for $7k. Auto or manual, (if looked after) reliable, can get the luxury with sunroof and HID headlights. I bought my black GTS-t Type M for $6k back in the day, was immaculate and stock. R.I.P.
  6. The standard one's front update reminds me of R34 "series 2"
  7. megahellaflush, 1cm contact patch
  8. 1. Wait until you can save up for engine conversion/off your P plates. 2. Replace engine with Barra
  9. Shipping from demon tweeks will be heaps less, you can get good stuff off them for decent prices.
  10. Thread cleaned up.
  11. Offset would have been stamped on the back or sticker on barrel. My guess is +35 front, and most likely +35 to +38 rear
  12. https://www.bing.com/search?q=gtr+registry then search for R34 then paint codes Alternatively, look up your VIN in the above site
  13. For the amp in the boot or under a seat.
  14. Let me guess, 80k km never been in an accident car?
  15. You don't need more power while you're on your P plates, you need to get off your Ps so you need more time. I'm sure it can be done with modifications.
  16. Reminds me of when I put a Pintara cluster in my R31 Skyline and it would rev to 9 with a blip of the throttle
  17. It would make a tiny difference, if you're going all out on a race track, but it makes a much bigger difference to people's wallets when they release it for the public to purchase.
  18. the now dead forum hidplanet had quite a bit of USDM based information, and the G37 projectors were regarded as being pretty good. Normally you'd just throw new bulbs in, or clear lenses if you want that sharp cut off. Helps to hold the projector in your hand, so you can inspect the bowls. I wouldn't bother changing unless the bowls are burnt.
  19. you're on your own buddy
  20. could mount something in the grill area? or roof rack Bulbs are about 5-7 years max, they start blue shifting and dim until failure. Bowls will be much harder to check, basically have to split the housing and take the projector apart, unless you have some fancy fibre optic camera. Not worth doing unless you notice the light barely visible. Just grab an Osram/Philips bulb from here https://www.powerbulbs.com/au/store/category/xenon-hid-bulbs-d2s-d2r-d1s-d1r/fitting/d2s-85122 Cool Blue Boost is for that 6000K LED look, other wise any of the others will be better than old OEM ones. I found Cool Blue Intense to be the right amount of blue for that 'modern' look without compromising too much on usable light. Otherwise, Philips vision (standard replacement) works great (I'm still rocking those in my first HID retrofit in my R32).
