nice :happy:

umm why didn't you just hot link the images from car sales rather than download them to your pc then upload them to SAU servers seems a waste imo

chill pill steve....chill pill ;)

looks good dude. cant wait to see the pics of the mods rolling in :)

not bad at all. See, this double makes me wonder how people want up to $20 for the DR30s.

Maybe because DR30's have character...Maybe because the DR30 at one stage was the quickest car to come out of Japan...Maybe because the ATTESA system was being developed for the DR30...maybe just maybe that R31's are shit! And yes i've driven one and wouldn't drive another one off of a cliff! Would rather drive my DR30 any day of the week :nyaanyaa:

Clean looking car to mate, using it as a daily??????

picked up the beast on monday, havnt really had the chance to take it for a nice drive yet with the clutch being f**kd a all (should be done 2day)... plus a few tiny electrical issues to have a look at... but i rekon i'll be out on friday nite for a few laps after work :P ... mite see some of u guys out...

clutch got done 2day drives ok... every now an then it seems to drop a cylinder an runs really ruff, the oils not milky so i dont think theres a crackd head probably just the plugs or coil packs, dont think its been serviced in a while... its bookd in to turbo tune 2morro mornin 2 get the whole thing checkd out and a power run... fingers crossed theres nothing too wrong with it...

    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
    • LOL well, lucky mine doesn't have some R shit on it. Around town, it handles so much better than the R33, R33 in the wet is pretty dangerous to the untrained hoon, especially with 13kg/mm front springs.
