Saw 3 Wine Red R33 Skylines driving from Kingston to Civic tonight.  A nice white 33 outside insomnia.  One or two more here and there.  So many 33's :S

Good to see a few more 34s out, someone break the ice and bring in a 34GTR :)

Try finding a decent one. I did... for 6 months. :)

A few decent one's around - Only problem is they are mainly well into the 100 grand mark. And the way compliance plates R going, I don't think there are gonna be many more anytime soon (Anyone know if 34 GTR's are compliable yet?). Contempt, would you still consider trading ur 350z to get one?

No, they still can't be bloody complied. :) I talked the guy at Prestige motorsports who added me to a list of R34GTR's that were going at auction over in Japan. I was seeing v-spec 2002 GTR's going for around 60k Australian and the only ones I can see here in Aus are 100+ for standard '99 models... I just couldn't bring myself to pay more then twice what I know the car is worth.

Nah, I'm not gunna be trading in my Z. I'm going be installing either a supercharger or a twin turbo system soon. I talked to one of the guys from APS (unichip guys) Who are currently testing a 330+k/w package that will put my Z into the 11's :D He invited me down to Melb to come for a drive in around 6 weeks when the testing is finished. Woo hoo.

I will probably hold onto this till some time after the new GTR comes out.

i looked for you again when we stopped and again when we met up later...so i just assumed you got lost or headed off. half of the cars got lost anyway....prolly luckier for you anyway, the cops woulda had a feild day had all of the cars been there.

Thanks for the compliment. Luckily me and my mate brought our walkie talkies which came in handy as he was closer to the front in his maroon 200sx, there the best little things for cruises. We just headed off because everyone went in different directions (didn't think it was that organised) but it wasn't a bad turn out they seemed like a friendly bunch of people.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
