thats why you should split your packages if you can, i.e. wheels, coilovers

Very obvious I thought!

Bit hard though when the kit they're talking about is 85000 yen and on a conversion rate of about 77 to the dollar, it becomes $1100.00.

If the kit could be broken down in Japan and shipped in bits, it could be got without drawing attention to the customs.

Very good score this if ya keen enough!

I got mine new for about $180.00 landed and this is just over $200.00 landed.

Only 11+ hours to go, so be quick if your keen enough, as these don't turn up every day, but this is a four cylinder (FJ20et) set up with 9000 tacho.

I think I paid over $100 for mine, but plus another hundred to get the damn things sent over from Japan several years ago. They NEVER turn up locally, so I had to take the hit.

Yours also have the correct rubber mounts at the base, whereas mine were missing, and I had to pull the switches off a 280zx.

The non-electric version of those mirrors in chrome go for staggering money.

Hey guys, any idea what these are worth? I bought them 2-3 years ago and I can't find any history of what I paid.

Saw this earlier when it was sitting at about $200 and thought of you D after our discussion the other day.

Was a big $$$ item new.. Don't know if Fantasy are still producing FJ stuff?

Not exactly rare but! This might be the answer to a lot of your camber issues.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
