Contempt, where are you getting the supercharger fitted?

The guy at CAPA recommended Jakes. Apparently they do a fair few installs of CAPA kits.

Though after hearing about the APS TT kit I'm not sure which I will get now :) Probably better to let it run in fully anyway before adding a hairdryer. Only got 8400 on the clock at the moment.

Oh yeah and I purchased company plates TPMTNC black with white writing. If anyone sees me cruising around gimme a wave. :(

Im also a keen on-looker at all the auctions going on in japan. I have a good friend that lives in NAGOYA. The R34 you said that you have seen for 60k AUS, is that landed and complied> Because if it is, I would suggest that you dont buy it, AN "02" model R34 GTR is worth at least 90k for a half decent example in AUS, the better ones more like $120.

It's the same as seeing an R33 GTR here for 35 grand and another for 70K. I would never have paid less than 65k for my car, and to me it was worth every cent. There are differences, esspecially in real life and when you drive them.

I reakon that 60k for a GTR34 would get you a real lemon! Probably accident or repaired cars. I have recently seen good example R34 in japan this week sell for around 4000000 to 5500000yen which is between 80-100K landed.

I would love to be able to get a respectable example r34 for 60k but it wont happen.

Sorry Im bragging on, but I have had friends that have brought in 34's and when they arrived the cars drove like cops, and were clear signs of prior damage though the auction report said grade 4.5. I would hate to see a GTR FAN get ripped that's all.

Good luck with finding your ride though :D

i spotted a very nice greeny colour S2 R33 GTS-Tone of the best looking ones i have ever seen in person... the colour is not my favourite dont get me wrong their but in terms of an overall package it looks sweet body is still stock as eg S2 front bar and spoiler etc but it has a nice big ass FMIC in the front bar OMG my pants :) anyways if the guys who owns it on here wants to be nice and let me have a look up close i would appreciate it as i am looking for a S2 and yours would be a good to have a look over... not to buy though :)

Seen it parked many a time at Jerrabomberra pub/club/tavern thingo...Someone there will probably know him.He's an older guy-prob. 30-35;saw him at Shell Fyshwick.The car goes pretty hard,too....

Spotted a whiteish (stucko) 32 GTR (plates GTR 94V) with nice NISMO graphics on its intercooler.

He was cruising thru QBN Monday around 2:30pm and had a Supra behind him and there was a shmick 3000GT around the corner probulary cruising with them.

Was there a cruise on Today?

Hi!Looks like I've been spotted "for the very first time"!I'll 'fess up:GTR 94V is my baby...Can't say I know who the 3000GT was,but if the Supra was purple,it's a mate's 2JZ NA '96;if it wasn't purple,then I dunno who it was!J.

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
