I have just met a guy through the NDSOC club who apparently has a friend building a super-charged L24. The super-charger is from toyota (1ggze) and it is bolted to the air-conditioner mounting plate (the air con compressor has been removed.) Pulleys and belts are holden... Plenty of folks are turboing them, why not supercharge? Mind you, I'm hardly an expert on forced induction.

see if you can get in contact with 'OUTATIME'

he and his mate built a s'charged R30 in South Aus.

i think later on they turboed it though...

one thing though, is you would have to intercool it if ou want any reliability, and also the stock ECU wont like it at all.

a wolf 3D version 3 is pretty cheap these days, as well as a megasquirt v2 or v3 (better)

lol yea thats right man, we bolted 1 on2 mates r30.

was different 4 sure. but was abit dodge cos he didnt wanna get a custom made up/change the crank pulley (sc used serpentine type belt and l24 uses V belts). so changed the sc's pulley which then no longer had a clutch on it and had 2 stuff around with venting the boost bak into the intake with a bov which made it idle thru the roof. also sucked the fuel down and only ran bout 5psi cos size of the pulley.

turbo was much easier. but if done properly would be pretty cool...

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
