my mates were keen to hit noosa in a few weeks

cops seem a bit more relaxed up there

The Noosa cops are extremely bad.

im from maroochydore/mooloolaba way, but im in noosa most days in my work ute though, i always keep an eye out for new rides and imports up there? i havent seen you guys yet though. go out to the rock nightclub in hastings street or the villa out near the macca's in noosaville, they are probably the best places to go out up in noosa, also there is the reef hotel aswell as you head down the hill towards the beach it's on your right.

I live in Noosa...there are about 9-10 skylines in the area, 4 supras, a few 180's, heaps old school cars...2 sprinters(both are currently off road for a week or two), a few ke70s just to name a few, and i think there are about 3 soarars as well.

btw i own one of the skylines in noosa... and i dont think i have ever been hasseledby cops in noosa...in mooloolaba yes...noosa never..the only thing i think i have ever been pulled over was to tell me i had a head light out...that was it no ticket or anything.

clubbing in noosa is pretty sad...locals and tourists hit up teh koala bar for cheap drinks but it closes at 12. Then people usually wander down to the rock which is a techno club...or the villa..which is on the other side of town...im pretty sure ill be down hastings at kb's and the rock tonight but then hitting up wharf tavern (or fridays) Saturday night which is in mooloolaba. But if your driving in mooloolaba its full of police. if you guys are gonna be going out let us know...I'm always the designated driver so i might be able to coax a few of my other import mates to come out...maybe

i got pulled over the other night and the po po asked "is this one of those godzillas", i said 'nah', i asked 'had a good night so far", he said 'nah', he asked "you been drinking', i replied "yeah". After the reading i asked "am i over", he said "nah", i said "have a good one from here on in", he said "yeah, hope so, by the way is this an import?", i said "yeah" he replied "cool, see ya". The cops in Noosa rock. Been here 12 years and the only problem i have had was a cop from Nambour asking if i was racing, i said "nah" and that was it. You poor lads in the south must cop it dry,,,, without lube.

depends when u get the cops if they are routine traffic cops doing random breahte tests etc you'll usually be ok if u are drunk or on drugs and are doing the right thing, but if u come across the STTF (state traffic task force) when they are running a blitz, then you will meet some cops who arent so friendly towards imports and there drivers. or any modified car for that matter

      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?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      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.

      By Duncan · Posted

      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.
