Hello Golgo, he said. Hello Golgo, said Golgo 2...


Recommended Posts

What's better than one Purple GTR VSpec?

How about two Purple GTR VSpecs!

A friend of mine just picked up his new toy. Again, similar mods to Golgo - wheels, exhaust - and in very good condition. Both are series 3 spec (although only the new one is a real series 3). Tell you what - those Xenon lights are bright when they follow you...

Cars sounded good together - you could hear the exhaust notes phasing. LMGT wheels suit the R33 shape nicely.

Might have to get the ICE boys togther for a photoshoot so we can have a foursome :D

Oh... and I'll buy a beer (or equavalent) for anyone who knows where I 'borrowed' the reference for the thread title :D

Had to set up a 'CarDomin' account to host the images. I feel so dirty :D

Every time I try to attach I get a server error. Has anyone got some FTP space I can dump these for the moment?

Can anyone else attach an image to a post?

Haha - not it's not B1 & B2 - nice try though :D

I have possibly over-obscured myself this time. We're talking very old school science-fiction - but recently sampled by Solid Steel...

No matter - the photos work now. Linked from CarDomain. Yay.

Not sure.

Both running exhausts, HKS pods and PowerFC. Both need a tune...

Will tune/dyno them at the same time - then it's off to Heathcote for the true test!

I think Golgo - but then, Golgo is best !

:D

well - a very nice set of cars there!

it reminds me when me and a mate both had proton satria GTI's (both silver of course).. it was like our own mini car club... im sure you will have lots of fun... just dont do what we did and stupidly crash into each other!

Last time I went to EvoR (on Westal Rd) - they had a purple 33 with bronze TE37s in the workshop. Pretty funny :)

An nope on the TtTE reference ;)

I think I have been far too obscure.

Sorry :)

Is from a Ray Bradbury (yep - that guy) sci-fi radio play called 'Marionettes Incorporated' - has been sampled recently by Solid Steel. Just thought perhaps there was someone who might have been a fan...

It's one of those cool Twilight-Zone style stories. Not unlike the sample on that mid-nineties techno 'Dead Eyes Open' track.

Will try to remain more mainstream next time I use an obscure pop-culture reference ;)

If anyone is keen - I can burn a copy of the CD, or email the track as an MP3. The whole CD is great - worth a spin.

I actually saw Golgo's closer twin the other night too - series 2, no bonnet lip - but bronze TE37s. Anyone know who this is?

See if we can get 5!

Just saw that car on thursday night, in St. Kilda. Was about to walk up and say hi to ya, but noticed the lack of stickers down the side ;). would have looked like a flippen fool, say "hi James" to a stranger :).

    • You put the driver's seat on the wrong side! Incredible detail on all of this. It looks like you could learn a lot about the car just from assembling the kit.
    • I made a mistake today. I had a spot I fixed, and used guide coat and I kept sanding until it went away and it did (sort of),  the guide coat was still there if I used wax and grease remover but was gone if I just blew the dust off. I ended up removing all of the filler and can feel a dip lol. The weird thing was I could still feel something after removing the guidecoat when the filler was there.  Is the proper way to check that all guide coat has been removed is to use the wax and grease remover or is just dusting it off fine?
    • Issues 11 - 21 Finally got around to building a growing pile of weekly issues/parts and taking some photos. I did a bit of detail painting focusing on the fuel rail and injectors... these were originally all black plastic and looked quite unrealistic compared to the other parts. Also used some Tamiya panel line accent colour to give the whole cylinder head and surrounding parts a slightly weathered 'just run in' look to it. I've been following another Japanese guy's build and he's done the same more or less.  Also got a 1/8th scale number plate set to replace the GT-R Nismo plates that came with the kit, to go together with the 'just run in' theme.
    • Quick update, finally got an hour or two on a weekend where there wasn't shit weather, no sick kids, people visiting our house or had to work. Visited me old folks and the skyline...dropped  $10 of 98 in the tank and a brand new SCA shitter battery in. Cranked over a bunch of times but didn't fire up....pretty sure it's not getting any fuel. Gonna try some of the stuff suggested above, next time I make it over there.
