There are 1GGTE example, but I think the 7MGTE is a better engine. I had a serious 7MGTE in a Cressida, few things to look out for, and they don't make as much power as a 2JZ...

I like the old-school Soarer look.... manuals can be rare though.

Geez Cam, can't you give us a harder question?:(

Seriously, I'll put money on it's an MZ20 3.0 GT Limited with the 7M-GTEU. Any chance of posting a pic of the writing down the side, or the rear end?

Thanks guys...what I was actually after was the model code for that SHAPE Soarer....not the model of THAT particular one, as mentioned above its probably the MZ20s, thanks anyway again guys.

Ah, gotcha. Well, just for the record:

I personally would prefer the 1GGTE engine, I have worked with one and they seem pretty easy to extract power from, and share a somewhat universal platform with the 1JZ/2JZ-GTE, so its easier to find part for them. I have also heard rumors the 7M's can develop oil leaks (cracks) in the block and are quite weak.

But thats just a personal opinion, each to their own :P

    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
    • @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.
    • Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.
    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
