But do they have any handeling?

Obviously not enougth for the hill climb, but maybe at a wakefield track day?

Having never driven any Skyline, I can't give you an answer based on personal experience... however, I'm confident that Supras hold their own on the circuit. And if we're talking about the HillClimb as an example, Mazman was driving a seriously overturboed car for that circuit and STILL beat most of your Skylines.

The best way to find out is put your money where your mouths are and get people from both camps to commit to a track / dyno / drag competition.

Agreed, though Dyno and Drag would both favour the Supra.

When it cools down, there is some interest in driving to Sydney and attending the regular Friday night drags. Otherwise SAU NSW hold a drag day each year??

Mazman is a dude and has an awesome car. Still most of the skylines were first timers to any competative racing and none had any of the money spent that the supra did.

Saying that a 4th place was awesome by the Mazman and I take nothing from the man.

i love how easily discussions on car forum degenerate into.. "mine is better than yours" if supras came out of the factory with 4wd it would be a different story.

Anyway getting back to the topic, its this going aheard? if i cant be in it then i will turn up and watch, should be awesome fun :)

I'm certain all cars would be welcome :) if your on this forum. Except maybe real shitters but that could be a laugh too. The passion is about your car whatever it is.

As far as mines better n faster than yours - whatever dudes. Everyone knows when it comes to speed/handling/looks of cars it's more about who has more disposable cash.

Your car is for you. What you want, what you want it to look like, how you want it to handle, how much speed you can afford or want, a good sound system if your into music. Sure others can appreciate it but really it's for you. I care a little what others think but dont get hung up on it. It's nice when some one else appreciates your car for what it is.

Anyway I'd be seriously dissapointed if peeps on this forum couldn't have their pride n joy in the Photo's.

Yeh. So back on topic, I would be once again happy to help Justin organise another photo shoot. I get the datto back this weekend from respray, so ill bring it along. But no one seems to have answered whether they want Justin to do the photography (instead we had a pissing contest and lets face it, Dattos rule :)), so can we get a show of hands or whatever please?

I am bored.....

Don't know what happened to Alan, but these things don't organise themselves.

Initially this idea was proposed on the R31 Skyline Club forum. You guys must know how the two clubs don't really mingle and it might have even put some people off.

Anyway, a new thread will probably be created once details are finalised.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
