Meggala,

Japanese writing has 3 different alphabets.. (Hiragana, Katakana and Kanji). Engish - Japanese words..eg: Intercooler etc is usually written in the Katakana script. Its a phonetic alphabet so there are about 30 or so letters to memorise. Any Japanese Language textbook should have a table of the higagana and katakana alphabets, meaning you can translate some of the text yourself.. For example intercooler will come out as Intakoola.. Brake will come out as Bureki etc..

Kanji ( chinese characters) is what F***s me and most students up.

For example it took my mum and I 20 minutes to read 1 page of the HKS Japan website.( pissed her off bigtime to stop and explain certain words 2 me)

Steve, some Young Japanese people living in Melbourne would gladly translate Japanese text into english in return for english lessons. Nichigo press or Japanese-english newspapers should put you in touch with the right people. BTW the nismo catalogue is trick ( heaps of pictures too :)

I was in the telstra shop on Thursday night and they have a tranlator scanning pen that can translate from Japanese to english....$300 or so dollars but well worth the money if you have it :cry: Perhaps a good idea for (Hey mum, I know what you can get me for christmas) a gift for someone then if they don't use it you can.... :)

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
