Ok so I'm in HK for a lay over for 2 days,

and just around my hotel I spottoed 4 R35 GTR's

2 white, 1 black and 1 gun metal.

the gun metal was parked outside our hotel so got have have a nice close up look.

one of the whites was in a dealer but only say on my way out of time..must try and con some-one into a test drive next time I go through.

only complaint I had was they are so damn quiet. so needs a better note.

You want uncommon hmm? The toyota ex A1 GP car is on parramatta road at the toyota dealer near my uni (sydney) I didn't get a chance to go look at it today though :rofl:

just checked my globe, and I am pretty sure that A1 GP cars are single manufacturer, I think it might be a monster truck you saw :P

P.S. I am sorry if you think I am a smartarse

Nissan are the Holden of Japan.

They source 80% of their product lineup from Korea?

They stubbornly pour all their eggs into the one commodore basket?

They wave the patriotic flag as an excuse to produce mediocre cars?

:D

Jut checked my globe, Hong Kong does not appear in Japan, I think it is in California..

:D

I don't think he was commenting on Nissans in HK, he was more replying to owgasm's post by making a comparison between nissan in Japan being like what holden is in australia... everywhere

I don't know why they bother. Its not like they know how to drive the car the way it was meant to be driven, anyway.

You can't say that..

You haven't met them..

You never know..

Thats just like saying poeple drink Stella Artois because its a more expensive import beer, not because they enjoy the taste.

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
