yeh have been to dragz before...also went to heatcote with some of the other guys and galz from here as bunch, was great fun...at heathcote the best we could do was 13 sec flat, but a week before we were at calder park, i did a 12.655sec pass and my dad did something like 12.3 second pass, not certain about his time but it was faster than mine...

well with the new mods we r hoping to do low 11's or mid 11's and maybe even high 10's...this is our first bunch of mods and then later on thinking of doing even mroe to it

yes, we saw it at heathcote and it was very nice.. heathcote wasn't a quick day due to wet track and things. Speaking of which better take my film in to get it developed :) took quite a few of the GTR.. hope they turn out well - cause that is one sex GTR!

he probably used the accelarator, clutch, gearstick, steering wheel and brakes at the end

lol.. great one jet :)

well back in his young days he had a VL Turbo, then a manaro, then back in 1994 he had '84 Porsche 911 Carrera, which he was in the porsche racing club where he learnt all the racing techniques and then that car got stolen and the he got a R32 GTR back in 1996 which i didnt have no idea what the heel it was, we had huge engine troubles with that car as it was very rare of car here then and finding parts was such a hassle so we just got rid of it and got a 4-wheel drive and last year for my 18th we got the R34 GTR..:)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • 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.
