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.

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
