well I once had a coffee in azabu that cost me 1500 yen! it was a good cappucino, but not 1500yen good!

lol, yeah but that nishi azabu richard! it gets even more expensive in roppongi hills.

6 Oz for a starbucks coffee is highway robbery! f**k i can starbucks at the conbini for 200 yen.

must be sydney. 1000 yen on it.

yeah agreed. :D conbini starbucks vs the fresh one aint really the same though. and even in japan i think a grande size cap is about 350-400 yen.

and you are right, azabu aint cheap, it's the most expensive coffee i've had by about double.

and man we have gone way OT. :D

and if you are nice I'll shout you a 1500 yen cap in azabu next time i'm in town! lol.

now, back to the GTR. umm yeah, it's in sydney now. :down:

now, back to the GTR. umm yeah, it's in sydney now. :(

lol, yes Way OT. youre gonna have to shout more than a coffee next time youre here BEER baron! :D

right, yeah the R 35... great car.

if the owner or friends/connections to the owner are reading this, can you please direct this car to www.finalinspection.com.au, and fly Damian up to wash/detail it :D

This car deserves nothing less than Damian's expertise to bring this car back as it sounds like it's positively filthy!

Seriously though, if it indeed gets a respray (soooo soooo wrong, just vinly the f*cker!) then get Damian to do the final detail before it goes to the public, there's only one man for the job :D

Well I can't wait till Friday, will see what all the big boys of the Jap tuning scene have done to tweak the R35's

Plenty of pictures and a full thread on Tokyo Autosalon to come.

Dont you go having too much fun, you have work to do whilst over there :D

It will be great to see this thing in the flesh when it hits our roads down here, certainly will be a true test of how good the car is. None of this thrash it around the ring for testing, bring it to Tassie and the best roads in Australia :D

I don't think it's theirs. Jspec just list other peoples cars. it's probably at auction or at a dealer, or maybe a yahoo car. but I'd be pretty certain they don't actually own it. just they will buy it for you if you want it.

yeah J-Spec don't actually own any of the cars we list... they're sourced from dealers, wholesalers, agents, auctions etc. when a customer wants a car they pay the seller directly. Fairly sure that R35 was from a wholesaler. As soon as it becomes unavailable its taken off the list, but till then its still available for purchase.

Craig and Ben are over in japan atm for TAS and to inspect/buy some cars, so they should be checking it out in person though.

I drove over the Anzac Bridge today for work and tried to spot the R35 you all speak of. As i crossed the bridge, not looking ahead for the entire length and possibly almost crashing, i'm positive i spotted an R33 and an R34 GT-R, both in white (F*k knows how i spotted them amongst all the other white cars) but no R35.

I left the bridge a little depressed...*sighs*

hey richard, you didnt end up getting to drive the GTR while you were here did you?

*grabs phone and calls nearest nissan dealer in tokyo*

BRB.

Im working on it, and may be driving one within the next few days before I fly back to Sydney :domokun:

haha I don't think they will need Daniel to detail it quite yet....since they will need to strip it, seats, dash, interior trim and pull the windows out in the next few days to put the cage in.

apparently the seats are a good 25kg each so I reckon there will be a couple of second hand r35 seats for sale very soon. wonder if they bolt into an r32?

I don't know what all the fuss is about pink, how much more is a bright pink R35 going to stand out than a white one. And i'm sure the owners don't care about resale if their gutting it and racing it.

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
