well there are plenty that go up for sale in oz, hell even i've got some for sale.. but I note you're not in Oz.

Over in the states I'd try Nissan or Nissan parts places - as I believe they sell the S15 over there...

btw: I don't believe you'll fit 255 on those rims - I've heard 235 is the max width for 16x7's

Guest s14 2.4 turbo

Thanks for the info predator666. I also will try a local importer. Sadly the S15 was never released here. We always get the water downed versions any how. My S14 came with a 2.4 NA motor, I believe the same as your Bluebird, I had to make it turbo. If they did release the s15 it would probably come with that 2.5 NA 4cly motor or something. No Skylines here either:( I dream to one day own my own Skyline, I hope they bring over the new GTR. We did get the 350z which is nice, but no Skyline.

No Skylines in US????

Motorex imports skylines into US, and I believe all that's imported are the GT-R, not GTS-T

Aren't we here the one who gets the water down version? US spec TT Supra got more power than jap-spec supra, which are the only one we can import down here.

And the new 2.5 WRX would not likely to make its way down here, only for US. Oz customers only gets the usual 2.0 litre.

Guest s14 2.4 turbo

The skyline that motrex brings over, sells for double the price that it sells there for $80,000 US dolars for a newer GTR, and steering wheel is on the wrong side...lol I did not know that about the supra though, we have not had a supra though since 1996. Things are geeting better here subaru 2.5 WRX is a nice suprise to see that we are going to get it. This is a recent change as about 5-7 years ago everything was either mustang or camero if you wanted to go fast. Most japanese companies avoided giving us turbos because we are belived to be only V8 lovers. times have changed for the better. I guess it like when everyone thinks that all americains carry guns. I hear that there are allot more women over there than guys. Is that true? If it is I think I will move there. lol

;)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
