did anyone else go to the motorshow?

i was a bit surprised to see a genuine NISMO 350Z s-tune there. only had a quick look did they say anywhere that they would be selling it here?

yep, i went and had a look, the general feedback i have had from most that went was dissapoinment.

That Nismo S-Tune was my favourite car at the show!

it was a dissapointment, i thought the motorshow would be a bonus thing to do after the hills fang the night before but then of course it rained so no driving and then the motorshow had only a few nice cars.

i got a photo of that s-tune at home somewhere, ill grab it at some stage.

the astin martins were nice too !

  • 2 weeks later...

got our first XR5 Turbo in to day!

doesn't look to bad - nice interior with recaro's. haven't been allowed to drive it yet though.

the salesmen keep on trying to tell me how much better it would be than my car (they don't like imports) it's got 166Kw at the engine, weighs 1400kg and is front wheel drive. not to mention its $35, 00 plus all the on road stuff so more like $40, 000, will have to take it for a drive hopefully tomorrow, then we'll see if i'm impressed

    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
