Just as the topic states..

If you could send one　thing back from Japan, what would it be? And why?

Myself, i'd send a big Domo-kun soft doll and slap him in the back seat of the car (^_^)

Or a set of Defi BF guages...

Hmmmmmm.. Gets me thinking.

Anyone else?

Only 1 thing? You listed 2 so I'll go 3;

I heading home next year so this is quite apt!

My 180

Pack it full of goodies and continue drifting the pants off it in Oz.

My mates.

It's gonna be f*ken tough leaving all the dickhead mates I've made.

Would also like to have the chance to speak Japanese every now and then when back in Oz.

School uniform laws.

Mentioned in previous post. I am still as yet unsuccessful.:P

When I think of more shit I'll post again!!

Besides cars or parts for cars, I reckon I'd bring back a crate of canned coffee.

Every time I'm in Japan I can't help myself with that stuff. Usually end up drinking 5 or 6 cans a day.

Altho one time I was on a school trip and we went on a bus trip to Kyoto and Nara and I must have had about 10 or 12 cans...Bad Idea...had to piss like every 10 minutes!!

Apart from the obvious of bringing back some of the kick arse cars they have in JP, i would bring back a good video camera

i bought a Panasonic NVGS250 for like $700, i was pricing them over here and they were like $1200 at the time of purchase, looking back i should have got the 500 for jack all more.

The other thing would be a good futon and tatami, i miss it- so friggin warm in winter and when you are drunk its less distance to fall when you roll over.

      Might import a stagea

      By iamhe77 · Posted

      Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.

      My BMW E39 528i touring

      Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.

      Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Duncan · Posted

      OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
