might be ablet to get you a cheap rb25det gearbox ;)
haha wud still love to see what its like.

combine the 2 :) making the ultimate time machine

the vid does mention them making upgrades to suspension and engine. however stainless steel would be a heavy. would it rust though? what u do when u need a respray :happy:

wayne, go an see troy at tyrepower. he'll price match. and you dont have to pay shipping + fitting and balance on top.

steve, again, call up a shop like tyrepower and ask them for an honest no bs answer. 15-20,000 maybe.

also just got my qfm pads, paid for them over the phone yesterday at 2 pm, postie came by 5 minutes ago with them.

Will call tyrepower, I'm going to need a couple fronts pretty soon.

Which pads did you get Dave, HPX or A1RM?

The KU31's I bought are on the back. My fronts have the insides chewed out now because of incorrect toe! I'm thinking of going for the HPX pads, not going to be tracking my car :)

tasty.

a1rms are still good cold, but they still work when they get hot. ive already overheated my 450 degree acres once.

Any tyrepower in particular lol?

i think theres one in salisbury. try them.

... adelaide you tit.

Same, the hpx sounds like a decent, relatively dust free street pad

weezy - teins are pretty decent, ill know after this weekend if I want to buy them but so far so good...

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
