Summernats (still)= Australias biggest Bogan/Westie convention (unfortunately). Main gripes- After the first few hours, you spend the whole weekend treking through rubbish, It still isn't all that great a place to take an jap import if you want any appreciation (or to keep straight panels, in my case perhaps [re: those still angry about bathurst 91/92] and does it always have to be 40+ degrees the whole time? Let the for/against posts begin!

The streets (Braddon etc) are dominated by Imports. The showground is dominated by v8's and rotary cars.

Their are more and more imports starting to appear inside the showground but they generally get frowned upon because they cannot do burnouts (which lets face it, thats what everyone is there to see).

The parking is free, your car will get dusty and need a very good wash when you get back home. Just pray it doesnt rain otherwise you'll be washing your car for a month!

    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
    • Trailer got new mudguards to accommodate the new wheels Lightweight ally Painted, stickered and done ✅ 👌
