Ok so recently me and few friends were driving along to the shops, and noticed a black R32 with space savers on.. We were like cool he must have popped a tyre and put a space saver on.

But then to our amazement he was driving along as if he had all 4 normal wheels on. Speeding a fair bit and cutting in and out of traffic etc etc..

Now not to long ago i noticed another black r33 with one space saver on.. Didnt think much of it then, but saw him aagin a few days later.. Again with space savers on.

Now today i saw him again driving with it on..

Dont you know that its not safe having it on for long periods of time?? Esp when you drive around like as if you had all normal rims on..

Sigh..

End rant..

i'd slash their space savers to get them off the road and prevent an accident.

this space saver shit must be the new "look at me, I'm a fu(kwit" trend.......the 5" cannon exhaust and the 200 db blowoff and pidgeon in the engine bay trend must be on its way out.

He obviously doesn't pay attention to Skylines in the news or he would have seen the Skyline that crashed because they were driving too fast on a space saver. Didn't one of them die?

Yeah I think a guy and his partner died...and a little boy survived the crash?

Not possible.. :blink:

Read the title and thought "Gees.. this one's going to stir a pot, bit racist.."..

But no - it's ok - it's stupid people being stupid..

Saw a taxi drive driving with one the other day - dropping people off.. went to get the next fare, couldn't believe it..

I was one of the mates with Siddr20. Believe it or not, the 32 with the space saver had positive camber on the space saver wheel. I think you can all work out how positive camber comes about

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
