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 :)

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.

    • 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.
