Always had a soft spot for the old beetle. Had one as a paddock thrasher back when I was 13, 14. That and a ke70, sort of wish I hadn't put it in a dam now.

Col, never met but it's good to hear you will be getting a bit of money back. Sad that you worked hard over the past few and haven't gotten 100% in return, some people get it easy, the rest of us work hard for nothing. What Lexus did you get?

Yeah no complaints really, you get set backs now and then it will all work out in the long run im sure...

We bought a RX hybrid to go with my IS... We now have "lex'i" in the garage... All Japanese again, jap cars, jap bikes and jap powered gardening tools... :P

I was way off. I was thinking you'd get a 350 seeing as you wanted one last time.

I was heading down the ISF line, but Nay didn't want another V8... So i got her the hybrid instead...

270kw combined output (one petrol and two electric motors) and 710nm of torque @ 1920kg...

Its faster than any factory HSV/FPV out there at the moment and its an SUV... :D

Remember electric motors make high torque right from 1 rpm... So when you floor the pedal it launches like a modified GTR...

So i sorta won at the same time... No ISF but at least we got something as fast...

I'll be trading my 250 on a 350 or ISF later in the year... 153kw up to 233 or 311kw (budget pending) :D

Mangs, long shot but my better half is doing a cert 3 in admin, and wants to do some work experience. If anyone knows or works in a place that might be able to accommodate her for a day or two a week, let me know.

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
