Would you take Garage Saurus GT-R over a Z tune R34, F40?

Depends on the application...

I believe the Garage Saurus R32 GTR is purely a drag car setup.

Nismo Z-Tune is all-rounder sports / performance circuit car.

Ferrari F40 is a legendary 80's - 90's Super Car.

Thanks for your answer, I would still go for Garage Saurus GT-R, I have seen a white F40 on Speedhunters which does look hot. http://www.speedhunt...40-in-high-res/

:)

That F40 is so nice.

Those brake calipers!

Dspeeds look great with the Projector headlights. Due to the lines in the lense make them look OEM'ish.

Good work for blackening the surrounds.

N1's a different matter. I think the tinted ones look better due to the black in the headlights.

I recall $400ish for Dspeeds from RHD deliverd and about $240 for the tinted from Justjap

f40, then sell to buy z tune, personally, z tune is one of my all time dream cars.

Theres only 1 car I would take over it.

see cars that make you thread in wasteland.

They're just under $450 delivered from RHD at the moment.

I remember with my Kandy Red 32 I paid somewhere between $6-$700 almost 10 years ago.

I guess that's part of the reason they are still quite a rare sight on the roads.

I would prefer smoked D-speeds with the N1 lights because IMO the eBay/Just Jap ones don't look quite right due to not having any lines in the lenses.

I will be giving the bulbs a dusting of silver spray paint so get rid of the orange.

Just get T5 clear and clear globes. Do they sell smoked Dspeed ?, I couldn't find any :(

The one issue I found with Dspeeds is the black lug at the back, always seems one of them breaks off from new even.

Must admit also Justjap (JJR) ones are more solid.

I have a new set of clear Dspeeds but they didn't suit the new N1 headlights :( . (if any one is after a set $440)

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
