Never seen it in the flesh, only in his signature (which doesn't show a huge amount). I'll take a look around on here for some higher quality pics and keep an extra sharp eye out for it out on the street. Sounds like a horrific crash with the blue 33, I had no idea... Horrible to see yet another one go to waste

Going to stop spamming and busy myself elsewhere for a while as this is hardly spotto-ing :rofl:

well empra was rolled into a brick wall and suffered quite a bit of damage, this was a few months ago though.

The front bar has a bit of damage where it looks like it's curled under the car and the bonnet looks a little bit long on the body (but I think that's just aggressive styling) as you can see in the picture. Either I'm seeing ghosts or she's back on the road with any major front end damage fixed and a patched paint job.

Pretty damned sure of the days I saw her, as I was scuttling back from work in the blistering sun attempting to look like less of a blob of sweat (being Tasmanian anything over 25 degree's is like an oven to me).

woulda been yup :) was on a cruise for a mate. what the hell was going on in cygnet??? like a bajillion people there

More than likely the redirected traffic from Margate due to the accident.

  • 2 weeks later...

Spotto'd Funz in Kermit and a guy (I'm assuming Mr. Untouchable?) in his dark grey/silver R33 at the round about near the fork in the road today, and a nice white series 2 R33 a bit further down the road. Attempted to get an arm out the window for a wave but my drivers side is stuck closed :(

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
