spotted the red 32gtst with the big intercooler on northbourne around 7 today (can't remember whose it is!). also spotted the red 31 which i saw at the christmas cruise, along northbourne as well (also can't remember whose it is!). some evo-ish looking lancer wanted a race with us. could have been a real evo actually, wasn't sure but it wasn't too slow.

also spotted myself turning a corner in braddon and accidentally pulling out in front of a cop on a bike, and subsequently being pulled over to get grilled. escaped without a ticket tho thank god!

i did happen to be that white 32gtr! he was gonna do me for negligent driving or something. gave me a grilling about it being summernats, and it's double demerits and there's all these people around blah blah. anyways, i was just polite and he seemed to melow out and let me off. thanks god. still got 10 points, but could do with the money. i didn't even see the poor bugger till i was well and truly into the corner.

A couple of 'delayed' spotteds:A silver 33 GT-R with white rims and a nice exhaust note boosting it up Hindmarsh Drive from the lights on Melrose,New Years Day about 7.30ish in the eve:sounded HORN!

A blue 34 GT-T on Gilmore Road Tuesday eve(I'm pretty sure it had white rims,too...),a gunmetal grey 32 GT-R coming out of Queanbo' on Wednesday night about 7.30 again,and a Bayside Blue 34 GT-R on Gilmore Raod last night sounding fierce;poss' Theo's old ride? Coming out of ESP,I'd imagine...

All round,a good week for 'spottings'!

And many more to come tonight in and around Braddon,I'd say!

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • 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.
