Alot of the well wishing and complements have been directed at me, but there are 4 other people, who, without their help, K`s would never have gotten off the ground...

Marc Rees - Web designer, he basically put everything together (and still is!) and made key suggestions on how the site should be presented.

Trenton - My bro, who basically set up (all of) the financing of K`s, and gave me advice on what we should offer for sale in Australia... and spent about $500 worth of international phone calls in the process!

Cam (BOOSTMEISTER) - Helped me with the K`s logo, he`ll argue that I designed the logo from scratch, and he just buffed it up, but if you saw the horrid lo-res thing I came up with... Cam also gave me HEAPS of advice on how to run the site effectively.

Last but definately not least...

Kayo - My wife who corrected some key Japanese translation errors, sorted the domain name, made zillions of phone calls, and kept the coffee flowing:)

Thanks guys! :)

hehe - coincidences. My wife's name is also Kayo!:)

Rezz - $500 on phone calls is very expensive. I used to use KDDI to call England, but I've since made the switch to a fast ADSL connection (8 mb), web cam and either MS messenger or Yahoo. Makes calling home much easier and cheaper, assuming you can live with a slight delay/reduction in sound quality...I think the last time I used a normal phone to call home was over a year ago...

it might be worth you guys setting up something similar - it could save you $$$ in the long run.

Regards

Dave

Yeah... coincedence! Her maiden names Fujiwara. Probably different I know Dave but... :D

I have got the ADSL web calls set up, but my brother hasn`t... I think he may have dial-up? Thanks for the tip anyway Dave, very helpful as usual!

No, I wish...

...she likes the sound of JGTC cars when they go into the pits, and they make that rev-limiter "brap-brap-brap-brap" sound though...:D

Are the size of the shirts ok Gary?

Not as yet Gary, fingers crossed we should see it early next week.

I did order a Nismo keyholder last year (the black coil-over shockie one) and it took a solid 2 weeks to arrive. Very popular items indeed.

Nismo keyrings? And other nismo goodies? I know what you mean - I used to have a choice with things like that: Order it and wait a lifetime or go down to Tokyo :P . But finally, we got a Super Autobacs here in Yamanashi and they sell all that kinda stuff. It was so nice to be able to walk into a store and pull a set of Nismo Clear indicators (Fr and Side) off the shelf. No ordering. No waiting. Great! :(

They also have those little keyrings too! ;)

Rezz, as for your Bro using dialup. I was able to get it "working" when my parents were on dialup too. Wasn't very reliable, and the pic was very low res. but it worked and it only cost them local phone rates.... To use webcams effectively though, you both need to been on ADSL or similar...

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
