yeh the s14.. im pretty happy man.

im gonna be jumping in a car that has had approx $70k of work done to it, and has receipts to prove..

completely rebuilt from the chassy up and engine rebuild and forged, less than 25,000 ago

So today we threw 4 blokes into the M35 and drove to Melbourne. Awesome with the TV screens, watching movies on the way over. Cracker! :thumbsup:

Just a shame our caravan park backs onto the Western Highway :(

Big Fella should be here later tonight, then tomorrow it's off to Calder for Gymkhana! Oh yeah!

First road trip I've done in the Stag since I brought it back from Sydney, and so far it's too easy. Just wish I had fixed the undertray before I came over. I race taped it and thought it'd be right, but the tape fell off. Very annoying.

yeah was thinking of doing a road trip too pity it was a 9hr drive LOL...........would've been nice if Ken Block came to Sydney also!!!!

Was definitely a down grade, but I think I want a car I can enjoy for a little while. When the time comes I'll be jumping back into a stag

When is the changeover actually happening? Or, has it already?

Coming down for a peek when you have it!!

How much power she putting out? If the previous owner spent a boatload of $$$ on building the engine then I'm guessing 300rwkw+?

its flow tested for over 350kw.. its running 225 at the moment on a fairly reserved tune. might get cihan or trent to have a quick look over it though..

How did you score that?

It was the demo car at musle car and I had to get it back to Nissan.....had ne etag so I took the long route.

Nearly went past isms house but I was a little tired after having a late night on sat after dad hit a wall in the r32. :(

So there has been a slight knock over large bumps from the front of my car that wasn't happening a couple of weeks ago..... so I put it on a hoist to check it today and found this....................see something missing on the rhs? I guess when they changed the struts over for compliance someone didn't eat there wheeties prior to tightening it :domokun:

    • 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.
