Quick update -

The seats that I am wanting to install into the R32 are not autotecnica as first thought

The model number of the seats I want to install is

Saas - SP30003 - in red and black

Just trying to find some rails to suit an R32 at the moment

not really looking forward to customising rails as im pretty sure there are some off the shelf rails for R32's that should fit these

This is my latest mod....

My new daily driver allows me to leave my line' in the garage at home, saving my semi-slicks, race brakes etc.. Some of you may recognise this car as it was previously owned by LTSjayce (its gone to a good home buddy!). So if you see some mad idoit in a subie waving at you in your skyline, its probably me!

well monday last week (27th) i was heading out to the physio at lunch time. anyway sitting at the lights all the speakers (except the subwoofer) suddenly cut out. got home and checked all the fuses, nothing. checked the amps, both were getting power.

went back to elite car sound and vision in belconnen because they were the people that put the sound system in and told them what happenned and they all seemed very perplexed. booked the car in for monday (3rd).

dropped the car off in the morning and got a call an hour later.. it turned out that all the internal fuses and wiring on one of my amps had failed, i believe they refered to it as 'catastrophic failure'. scott got on the phone to the rep from soundstream (manafacturer of the amplifier) and told him what had gone on and that i had spent a fair bit of money on the sound system (all soundstream: speakers, amps, sub etc). the rep said that i can either wait for the repairs on the amp which would be 4-6 weeks or i can upgrade to their latest and more powerful amp for $50.

long story short, i got a brand new amp, filter and wiring in the left front door installed for only $50!! these guys really do some awesome quality work, this is the 3rd car that they have done for me. first was a mild upgrade for my camry thena full on system for my BMW and now my magna, camry, magmry, camgna whatever never had any problems.. highly recomend them to anyone

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 馃槀 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
