Thats typical Japanese bidding..drives me insane. Bloody kamikaze ninja numbnuts thinking if they wait until last 10 secs they'll get it.

I just chuck my max bid in from the get an be done with it.

What are you going to use to run it ??

232,000yen. Didn't wanna spend anymore then 230k to be honest but like u said I hardly see them on there. This one was the best condition one I've seen on there.

I think you got a good score mate. yeah the bloody time extensions on yahoo auctions shits me. I've been buying off yahoo for over 10 years and lost many nights of sleep back in the early 2000s when auctions would re-extend for hours and hours. ending time would be say 8pm and they'd bloody go until 2am with tiny little bid increases every time extra time was about to finish. drove me insane.

When I was staying in Japan early this year my mate mentioned you can actually use a site to bid at the last 0.001 of a second to win the auction. Found that out after I lost the bid on a GT500 RRR block which went for around 5,500 :(

Waste of time and doesnt always work.

Just work out max you want to pay and throw it in at the start.

Watch it and if it goes past your bid and you want to pay more then throw more bids on.

10 years living in Jappa another 8 on top of that going there on travel business and visa hopping, I learnt a long long time ago not to waste time or energy on dumb stuff the Japanese do.

If you do you will be banging your head against a wall for a long long time.

The Motec 800 will run the V-cam no problems.

Also Midori Seibi have been doing setups with a custom Power Fc that they reset.

Screw the GTR's go a big single..

Autoselect Yellow Shark with V-cam

Big single would be to laggy on the 26 for now, and means my ARC twin entry cooler would be useless :(

Just wanna get the thing running already. I'll be going either Tomei 2.8 or Brian Crower 2.9 later on.

Now to save some funds again for a front diff and a whole heap of Nissan parts.

that was just my point mate. response from the -5s is the key for the track. note kaido_RR build, he's done alot of sensible work. :thumbsup:

    • Hi guys my 94 r33 gtst fuel pump has gone out. I have a walbro 525 ready to go in but am unsure if I need to upgrade the fuel tank bulk heads? Ive heard that others have issues with the stock wiring melting... Ive seen alot of people recommend this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-nissan-skyline-r33-r34-silvia-s14-s15-billet-fuel-tank-bulkhead-hat-top-an6-with-high-current-connector-apex-2-8-delphi-fpg-100?variant=42873255198898 My current pump that stopped working is aftermarket but I had no relay mod or upgraded connectors. Need some advice please. TIA
    • It’s new. It’s the cd009. I did take the transmission apart to mill down the bellhousing and had both housings come off the gears so wondering is something isn’t in right. I am running redline. I can get it in gear running too but it’s just not easier and it’s almost like 2, 4, 6, and reverse all the back gears aren’t happy going in
    • I’ll remember that as a last choice. It’s brand new
    • Got keys and did a walk around the yard planning the landscaping works with the family that I will be doing Main effort: remove all the woodchip in the gardens that are around (attached) to the outside of the house and replace with 10mm blue metal, having woodchip close to the house is a recipe for inviting white ants, currently there are no white ants within the block and I would like to keep it that way I'll be buying some large raised garden beds to grow veggies and stuff, and the woodchip will be mulched with everything else that gets dug up, pulled out, or cut down during works Next will some minor drainage and landscaping maintenance up one side of the house, where the fuse box, AC, and solar stuff will go, about 12 mtrs long by 2 meters wide, I'll break up the soil, add gypsum and then I'll dig in a French drains about 300mm deep x 300mm wide and fill it with agg pipe and blue metal, then level out the whole area with a 50mm layer of blue metal, the soil, whilst currently pretty compacted, will break up well with the gypsum to aid in drainage, I'll then cover the area with a 50mm layer of more blue metal In saying this, the drainage issue is minor, but that little hidden away area down the side is untidy and weedy, and as all of the main elec stuff is there I want it neat and tidy to appease my OCD Again, the material excavated from the French drains with be added to the garden bed mulch, as will some rose bushes and some other crap looking garden plants, and a old apricot tree that is looking worse for wear The apricot tree is currently in a little roundish garden bed that is in the middle of the back yard with few other crappy looking plants around it, that will all be removed, levelled, re-turfed, and is a perfect spot for a hills hoist There is also a area about 3m x 2m between the rear fence and shed that will get some attention, it looks like some stuff was stored there and the grass is dead, that will also get broken up and mulched, and is a prime spot for a pumpkin patch I've guestimated that I'll need: 3 tonnes of blue metal, 12 meters of agg pipe, 5kg of Gypsum, and a hills hoist, so a few bags of concrete as well to set it in place (the house currently has one of those pull out 4 line jobs, whilst it works, I want a retro old school hills hoist), I am also going to run some chickens, there's a great spot for a coop, so a chicken coop to suit 4 of those lovely egg laying bitches will also be on the job card That should keep me busy for a while, and will finish off the back yard ready for a early spring planting of some veggies and berries  Once the main effort is done I'll start out the front, there's a large rock garden that could use some TLC, but that is only minor works Should be fully moved in within 2 weeks, the landscaping works will start then Fun times, retirement is good  
    • It happens, that's what your single stage filler is used for.  If it is still visible after the 3 coats of 2k primer, it will be visible after the paint is laid down.  Its hard to give 100% perfect advice without being there in person, I'm very tempted to say stop where you are, fill your pin holes with a single stage putty first then keep going.
