Bugger the Sushi...lets just go drink some JDM beer! :/

http://www.robotsushi.com/visual.aspx

Also there is very nice Sushi place just of Toorak rd, in South Yarra. Pricey, but very nicey!

Oh and quick lesson of Asahi....

This is Asahi

Asahi-33-cl-799614.jpg

Notice the 2 black Japanese symbols in the middle of the bottle.... don;'t drink this stuff! It's not brewed in Japan, usually in Oz it's from Thailand or even the UK.

This is the Asahi you want!

Notice the 1 black Japanese symbol in the middle of the bottle/can (the symbol means 'Draft')... this is the stuff you want. :)

Oh and if you want JDM Kirins, the cellar on Acland st, St Kilda and the JDM grocery market behind the KFC on Chapel st has em. In cans of 500ml goodness :)

Haha dude, try finding Japan brewed Asahi here. Near impossible. All Aus stuff is Thai brewed :)

Yep. Made in Thailand or UK.

I've only had the Japanese stuff at a place called "Teppensan" on Russell St.

I'm feeling a Sushi meet coming on, I get my new car this month. I'll organise one early December! :)

Make sure it's unofficial so I can come :D

I haven't been to an SAU meet in quite a while.

went to a nice cosy downstairs place on little burke near exhibition street the other night :)

nihonbashizen

was quite impressed.. not cheap tho! about 100$ for two well fed patrons!

Looks very pricey too.

I use to goto Yoyogi Cafe

211-213 Swanston St

Melbourne VIC 3000

Phone (03) 9663 7266

Service, food and price were all very good.

Loved Ishiya Japanese Stonegrill when I went there this year for my birthday: http://www.ishiyastonegrill.com.au/

It's on Little Bourke Street. I had the Wagyu stonegrill, myself and my partner were a little over $150 together with drinks, so not cheap, but bloody worth it.

For reasonably priced Japanese, Sapporo next to Mitcham station is fantastic: http://maps.google.com.au/maps/place?sourc...346253128765221

there was a tiny sushi shop on whitehorse rd near mitcham station, used to make up decent handrolls fresh

Well guys, I'm going to J's Surf & Turf in Brighton tomorrow night for dinner (all you can eat)!

$28 per person, and you can get half a dozen of fresh raw oysters per person :)

It seems like it's gonna be packed, I was just lucky to get a booking for tomorrow night at 8, but all the other times are pretty much booked out.

So I'll let you guys know how it goes :blush:

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
