problem with rotories is that you see one, you see them all.

all of them are pretty much the same engine, same sound, similar time, all of them can not idle, all in same chassis, rx2,3,4,7

at the beginning of the race, i was fine, but then really got sick of them aye...

LoL, but not trying to sound stupid dude. But how about R32, R33... Cause I sure as heck didnt see any R34s racing. Same engine, same sound, slower times, (bar one...) pretty much the same car even... Just pointing it out :nuke:

End of it all, the bikes got me, crazy barstards.

i have to agree with you on this one dave. most cars that race are alot a like in engine specs and stuff but that isnt the point of the jambo, its to watch the racing, perv on the hot women, ha ha

really if u wanted to see show cars i think autosalon is the place to be, me personally i go to jambo to watch the racing, that's the real shit right there.

I only goto jamboree to watch a few runs...cause after i see 2 or 3 i get bored and well the chicks hold ya attention longer...however heaps of companies there showing their stuff for sale...get to look at turbos and other performance parts...research for race car....real racing not the kind that lasts for a few seconds like a 15yr old kid having his first root.

I went both days and was a good turnout, sat was a way better day to go then sunday. Was good to see all in all and was lucky enough to see the world record pass by the heat treatments r32 gtr late sat afternoon/night, so that makes it a worth while trip for me. Was good to see so many fast cars, many in the consitant 7 second zone which realy says something about the sport, it's only getting bigger and faster. My persoanl fave's are, heat treatmetns r32 gtr @ 7.57 , gas motor sport camry @ 6.8 and mr mad in his insane twin turbo 2000hp torrana @ 6.8, and i saw all the fastest passes :happy: It was a pitty not to see that many quick skylines with many og the big players having gremlins, but thats racing for ya :(

i know i'm gonna get alot of people disagreeing with me here but i dont really think the girls was that special. The girls on stage i didnt think were model quality and there were a couple of hot promo girls but a few pretty average ones to. Sorry to any girls who read this and may be offended. If i saw them at any other time or place my jaw would probably drop but i couldnt get away from the cars. The sound and smell just kept me glued to the track lol

argh the ladies are an added bonus but the cars are the real stuff.

i just got the photo's off other various sites, bcoz there are alot of aw4esome inages of the cars and stuff on there, and no one has really posted many of the girls and cars in here. also i didnt have my cam with me it was in s.a. with my sister (GRRRRRRR)

anyway. good pics for the photographers, that is what they are there for, to share around and look at.

Highest mph ever? Wouldnt that mean you would of had to got a really slow start and then gotten really quick really fast towards the end? I saw your car and it was damn quick and impressive but it was far from the quickest there. Sorry if that sounded insulting, your car was defintly a crowd pleasure. Actually i think crowd shocker is more the word. it was strange hearing a supercharged v8 come out of a skyline lol

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      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.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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.
