Car will have to be returned to COMPLETLEY stock.

430hp indicates new turbo(s), fuel system, exhaust, FMIC, engine build, Management/ECU etc.... all have to go back to standard.

Compliance - $5K plus getting all the stock shit.

All the freight charges/import taxes/duties etc.

be looking @ $20K - $25K after all that +tyres/Inland transport/rego etc.....

Cheaper and easier to buy one here. :blink:

so how is your car Jess only minor problems i hope

Did a CV joint Thursday night coming home from work :(

So couldn't put on in in time to do the trip..

Took the proton instead but found out the shocks are dead in it...so didnt make it a fun journey 800km on the Highways :D

Only made it to Melbourne...and decided to drive back home :blink:

I will be over in a few weeks for a weekend so will catch up then!!

Wonder if some of your guys would be interested in entering DECA in May at Shepparton??

Cheaper and easier to buy one here. :blink:

All that shit still has to be done. IF you can find one for $6-7K (which is going to be a tall order, theey're still 10K there....), still going to be $15K by the time you get it just READY for rego. add in rego/tyres/on roads/inland transport etc and you still nearly on $20K. And you're starting off with a stock car.

Buy one here already modded and ready to rock and save the time/hassle/headf**ks and the 3 month wait. If you buy one from interstate still cheaper than bringing one of your own over....

Sweet! Heard good things about those turbo's on 20's.... f**king hard to get hold of though. I know where there's a complete RB20 kit, but it's $2K or something stupid, So I went with a trust turbo.

You changine injectors/AFM/ECU at all?

Id add a Z32 into the equation and shoot for 220 - 230. Those turbo's are capable of 250...... and reportedly VERY responsive on a 20..... sounds like it's gonna be a stomper setup though.

Im basically running a similar setup with my TD0620G 8cm (Walbro (soon to be 044 and 2.5ltr surge tank)/FMIC/exhaust/DMAX manifold/GTR injectors/Z32 AFM/Boostworx Remap/RB25 box), and shaun tuned a similar setup on a R32, 241kw's on 16 psi, full 16 psi By 4000rpm. Ill be running 1.2/1.3 bar and a 8500rpm limiter.... Hoping for a solid 250.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
