thats true! but still!!! even the crappy EGshit pulls away from the 86 more than tha GTR.

i mean, see the distance that the FD gains on the straight away compared to the distance the GTR gains at the start of the race.

the GTR is made to look slow, and nakazato is a h0m0~!

Hobby Japan (in CBD & Box Hill) have InitialD DVDs and 1:24 plastic model kits of the Akina cars (S13, 180sx, AE85, AE86) and some others like the SilEighty and EK-Type R Civic.

darK: The InitialD store is on Russell St, near corner of Lonsdale. Has lots of Japanese stuff like CDs, DVDs and collectables - toys :)

Cool store - but quite pricey.

I have Shingo's 'Night Kids' EG6 Civic (like my old one) and the 'Night Kids' R32 GTR (Takeshi) as keyrings (thanks to EBay). Also the BitCharG set (see below).

The manga comics are available from Alternate Worlds (Chapel St). The arcade game is lots of fun and due out on PS2 later this year (Sega release).

The movie (3rd stage) is really good. Apparently Madman are going to release the whole series (x4 I think) here after Tokyopop do a EL conversion in the US.

Oh yeah...

The SS Edition Trueno in Gran Turismo 3 is the 'Shuichi Shigeno' version (shows on the detail 'my garage' screen)

Shigeno san is the creator of InitialD - the car is a bit of props to him. That's why it's a pretty good little drifter.

The EG6 and R32 are little plastic keyrings - like in the photo. 4cm long.

I had Takumi's AE86 Trueno but I gave it to my (then) girlfriend as she has a white Corolla.

The GTR has red LED headlights and the Civic's front wheels are turned in - drift style. It has 'NightKids' written on the window.

The Civic is on my house-keys which are in the boot of my car in the basement - hence no photo :)

darK: Flames - probably. That cat is still 'rather' high-flowing :)

Mind you, you need to be pushing it pretty hard - so maybe not as we'll be on heavily policed roads. You can hear it 'pop' though.

Will get a video of it before I put the cat on.

    • Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit. 
    • Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?
    • I said Garrett style. Not Garrett genuine. And something in the G30 550 range is what you want. Not those pokey little old fashioned T28 sized things. The intake ports in the head are small. There is little benefit in fattening up the runners and leaving ths actual ports small. Just run what you've got. And on the subject of Nistune vs Haltech etc..... You know you can control the transmission with decent standalone ECUs these days, right? No need to keep any of that old Nissan bullshit. Don't get me wrong - I use Nistune on my Neo. But it is a DET, so the number of bodges and workarounds I had to do to make it work in a chassis without ABS, TCS, etc, is quite small compared to the herniated arsehole you will have trying to make it work on a motor that doesn't have some of the things that the turbo ECU wants to see. Just easier to bite the bullet and go aftermarket outright.      
    • Hmm. Only when the f**king thing is actually working. Still can't find the leak. And that's with dye being put in the last 3 times!
