yeah I live in Northgate Pete - so every time I turn out from Fosters Rd onto North East I get a good gander at the Motocity cars .... it used to be nice when Turismo was still in business, and that dodgy Japan Car Sales was near the body workshop before it moved - I used to get to check out tons of imports :rofl:

are nsx fast?  apparently my friend said he can import them for like 20k ... not sure... he complies alot of 15 yo cars ..

i don't think NSX start at 89 anyway...

don't buy 20k NSX! for that price they MUST be accdient car. The problem is they are aluminium chasis, and the repair is scary, for 20k u won't got a straight car.

the steering wheel shaking at 80km...

if they are available for import, i think they should be at least high 4k mark for a average 92 model. (if they don't rip u off, i think they will sell them for at least 60k)

standard they are not all that fast, i did my appr. with honda in victoria and we had a couple come through, awesome chassis and engine though. 14.0 1/4mile for 1991-1995 NSX or 13.3 for NSX-R. most jap nsx's in performance circles have had extensive engine development, just to play with stock GTR's and the like.

My friend has a red one...and i think it's fast as! handles extremely well on the road..esp around corners. In a straight line my head was back on the head rest many times! He bought it for around $90 000..so it would wanna be good.

Definately sexy cars tho!

Naa it wasn't me Sam! I haven't gone anywhere near King William in my Skyline for months!

That's the second sighting of my car when it was well and truely tucked away in the garage. Maybe it's like Herbie the love bug? It just drives around by itself when I'm not at home :D

I've spotted that awesome looking silver/carbon bonnet R34 GT-R (COPY ME) around my way about 3 times this week. At one stage he drove past my house whilst I was out the front washing my car. We did the... 'one Skyline owner to another' nod thing :D Saw him getting tailed by the police going along Sudholz Rd yesterday arvo too.

Must Be hahaha

I've stoped posting about the 34 dude hahaha cos Erica and Sean gave me shit about it the other w/e while we were out.....

But since you brought it up we were chillin at a Cafe on Rundle and he was cuttin laps last night and they finally got to see wot i have been on about haha.....

And correct me if i'm wrong i didn't notice this before but i think he had P Plates up last night?!?!?!?!?

huh?

also i saw a wicked gold r33 (dont know if it was an R) that was drivin down mcintyre rd today at about 5pm. had a big gt style wing. sweet.

also same timish, saw a black r33 on darley rd, which seemed to have a hot chick in it, either brunette or black haired *drools*

Yeah i have also seen the same 33 Top Secret Gold looking with big GT wing and Carbon Bonnet

Not a GT Wing fan but that car looks tough

The Guy that sprayed that car though i recently found out is the one that will be respraying mine :spank:

The R34 Uras style 4 door is Ken's. Michael and Ken were the original starters of IBLIS, and he had the racing worx shop. He has a chinese restraunt on King William road now. He also has that tough white R33 gtr with the 19 inch AVS's. That car was actually originally built by HKS Kansai. But has now had the motor rebuilt here with cams,2530,s and the rest. He also has a blue 180sx with kit,cooler etc.

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
