This BLUE would be a different story though :( Its on carsales in NSW under dealer cars..there's quite a few in Australia at the moment..might be worthwhile looking interstate as well instead of straight from Japan.

That's the same blue I think.

Looks really good there, but again I've seen it in some shots on a dull day and it looks quite dull.

As for looking here, would love too, but current prices are on average 10k more than what it would cost to get the car from Japan.

eg a 2005 auto went for just over 2mil yen last week. That's around 36k ready to drive, rego and all. On sites like carsales a 2005 auto is going close to 50k. Big difference!

yeah pretty sure, the Carribean blue is the only colour close to that, the other blues they came in were quite different, Check out the front bumper, it's quite close to the other pic.

Mate IMO just take your time and find one with the colour you really like, for me I would go for black as well. Cause somewhere down the track say if you're not happy with the colour a respray aren't going to be cheap haha. Also just import it from Japan since you can find these in mint condition, you can get a nice set of 18s from the money you save.

^ i like that idea. Save money by importing, use saved money on some 18" hotness.

black FTW. Saw one in the states with the kit, little rear spoiler, etc... looked awesome i must admit

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.

      Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha

      Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
