On the way down Port Wakefield Road I was waiting at the traffic lights, and a silver Ceffy (same colour as mine) turned off Diagonal Road, so I quickly caught up to it. It was absolute stock, nothing changed on it.

Got the shock of my life when I pulled up along side.. and it was a late 40 year old woman by herself in it. Maybe older, she looked like one of them people that would be offended if you call them older then they actually are lol.. :ninja: She was concentrating ever so hard!

a friend of mine had his in his mums shed down here in bunbury, now he's taken it out to narrogin to work on her. only import in a sea of bogans and farm machinery. thing is an animal

Almost none in the UK. I know of mine, one being broken in Cornwall, one guy on this forum who has one in Cornwall, one up in Scotland, and a mate of mine once saw one being driven like an utter tit (ie. no mechanical sympathy) by some wannabe gangsta type who upon chatting to him it turned out he had no idea what he had.

I do 40,000 miles a year, which is a lot by UK standards (I realise some of you guys probably do that much just getting to the next town :P ) and have never seen another on the road.

I didn't see any............ til i bought mine.

There is a stock one getting around the Tweed Heads area with a 50yr old woman driving it

Other than that ive seen approx 3 on the Gold Coast streets. I know there is more

Most up here are drifters

its always funny going home to NZ for a few weeks and seeing cefiros everywhere is like christmas...it gets old pretty damn quick through, unless you see a super tough example which happens on occasion, majority are massive, bent Plgs

dont see too many Ceffys on the street day-to-day in Adelaide, especially not clean ones. but there are definitely a few around, few of the SA forum members have nice clean examples

most that i have actually seen on the road with my own eyes are drift hacks - broken bits of fibreglass BN kits, zip ties holding shit together, straight pipe exhausts, just asking for a defect notice

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
