  1. I have every issue of HPI and Speed and drift battle, great magainzes. but I'd have to say that 'Hyper Rev - GTR specials' are my favourite. Got 3 out of the 4. Great pictures, good directory of performance parts aswell. too bad I can't read japanese and it's admn expensive.
  2. I'm glad to be in that 1% aswell, I think it will be awhile before I changed it.
  3. That would be a great family car. but I wonder how long until there is compliance for these? I'd prefer the sedan version. I've heard of people putting these engines into FTOs but swapping for a single turbo due to firewall restriction. Stagea vs Legnum, anyone know of any comparisions?
  4. Ok here is my list. 1- Datsun 180B ($1400 worth and went pretty good, SSS motor with twin carbies) 2- VN Commodore (not the smartest move, but it was a decent car) 3- Festiva Treo (Won it in a Raffle, Wow, people actually do win cars) 4- ZZR-250 (Wanted to have a go on a bike) 5- FTO GPX (great looks and first taste for import - for sale) 6- GTR R32 (and I thought the FTO suspension was stiff) Next car will either have to be a convertible or a luxuary car.
  5. Damn that looks good. What size are they Nismo LM-GT4's? and how much you paid for them? they are excately what I'm looking for.
  6. Hey Mr R32, just looking at your respray pictures and noticed that you changed your headlights. What did you do with the old ones? I just spent $300 at Just jap for a set of headlights but realized they weren't matching and was slightly different. Nice choice of colour by the way.
  7. Hi, I am still interested in a TSC, but with an analog Dial. Don't want another flashing LED near the Dash, I wouldn't plan to adjust it very often. and it would be easier to swap it to another car or sell later on. Will it take long to make one up with a dial? thanks for the pictures, they look much smaller than the ones they were selling in the GTR.CO.UK ones.
  8. Cool, thanks for that, one less thing to worry about.
  9. Hi anyone out there that has a set of R32 Boot Trim they are interested in selling? I recently got my car from japan and the boot trim was missing. I've rang a couple of places and they either want to keep it for themselves or don't stock them. please let me know. would prefer it to be in sydney or canberra. thanks
  10. Sorry for continuing on the HICAS question. I've recently recieved my R32 GTR and same as Pentae, I've never seen the light come on except when you first switch on the electrics. When is it suppose to go on? when you do a tight circle? I just presumed it was working since my turning circle wasn't that bad.
  11. My cousins bought some replica Recaros but apparently it did not connect to the orginal rails. I think it's all up to you and your budget, but at least make sure it's ADR approved. and I doubt any of the replicas are.
  12. Congradulations, just curious, you mentioned that your air-cond work. I recently got my car and it needed to be regas. Does QLD law allow the old gas or do you just mean that the electrics work, but no gas? Nice Stocky by the way.
  13. I know the device that youre talking about as one of my old friends had one. I think it was piece of metal attached to the seat rail and a u-shaped piece of metal that locks the car into 5th gear. Sorry no idea where you can get one. Good idea, but I think thieves would of broken the window sat down in the seat before they realized it was there. Might keep the less experienced thieves out but would still be out of money for the break in.
  14. Yer, I was looking at 2 R32 GTRs and both were black resprayed white. but I have 3 of the 'hyper rev' GTR specials and and I got to admit a white R32 with white TE37s or Nismo LM4's look damn good.
  15. Thanks for the advice DAN00H, I'm getting an aftermarket Gauage put in hopefully this weekend just to be certain it's just the Oil pressure Sender, I'm just driving around in the FTO until it's fixed anyway, better safe than sorry. But the gauge starts off at around 2-3 and drops when I do any hardish corner to almost 0, but the light never comes on.
  16. I might aswell share my import story, after having my GTR waiting on the dock for 1 year I was surprised that it wasn't as bad as I thought. even thought I had wait an extra 2 months for a ship and staff being on holiday and it had to be trucked down to sydney from brisbane. The rocker cover gaskets needs to be replaced after sitting there for so long as understandable. but was not impressed with the importers and compliance guys for not mentioning. ABS module had a leak CV boot split and needs drive shaft reconditioned driver fold-in mirror not working Oil pressure guage playing up (I'm aware this is a common problem) Missing Boot trim Even though it is nothing major it would of been nice to know before getting the car. All the little things to add up.
  17. Hi, I was wondering if there is anyone out there that can read japanese and translate my GTR's auction paper for me. I recently picked up my GTR but after getting my cousin (which is a mechanic) to look at it, he said it had a split CV boot and a leak in the ABS module. Neither the importer or the Compliance people mentioned it even after I asked them was there anything else that needs to be replaced. I was wondering if there was any mention of it on the auction paper. I'm still happy with the car for the price I paid for it, but just want to know was there a dodgy inspection by the importers or dodgy people at the compliance centre. thanks.
  18. Thanks for that, Been here for awhile and never even paid attention to the japanese section. I'll post something up there.
  19. Hi I was wondering if anyone out there has any experience reading Japanese Auction papers. I recently finally got a hold of my R32 GTR and I'm quite happy with it. The only problem was that when I got my cousin (mechanic) to look at the car he mentioned that the CV boot was split and that the ABS module had a slight leak of break fluid. Now, I trust my cousin, But the perth company that helped me import it and the compliance place in Sydney didn't mention either after I asked was there anything else that needed to be fixed. Can anyone here translate this for me? thanks
  20. Any pictures of this TSC yet? still interested in one, but I won't get my car back for 2 weeks. I hate how torque to the front wheels drop when you go around a corner.
  21. They have a Ad in the latest Drift Battle Magazine, They are in S.A. so no one knows? I'd prefer to ask someone that's had experience and knows if it will fit or not rather than asking a supplier(90% of the time they will just say, of course it will fit without knowing just to get the sale).
  22. Speaking of GTR front bars, Does anyone know if a R32 GTS-T front bar fits on a R32 GTR? I quite like this bar http://www.vivagarage.com/?pid=prd&cat=8&make=2# VG Skyline GTS-T 32 (JR)style complete kit but never seen it for a GTR before, it looks similar to TARGET front bars. I know that the GTR has wider guards but would it affect the front bar? thanks.
  23. Sorry, is this TSC excatly the same as the one by 'R32 combat' in WWW.GTR.CO.UK? If so, I'm interested, but would like to at least see a picture of the gadget first.
  24. I only picked up Autosaloon Magazine no.31 yesterday and Bee Racing has only made 4 so far. Curious are they jumping the gun in advertising a copy or are they planning to make their own.
