Fantastic photos, haven't had a chance to watch the whole slide show but what I saw was great, I actually have a desire to go to Disneyland now :) Photos are great quality too, wish I could do them that well instead of the dull lifeless ones I always take. Thanks for taking the effort to upload and link.

Wanted to buy: VL wagon in Japan

Yes, I am serious

You cant be! that would seriously cost a fortune to register and run over there.

I only saw a handful of old cars... spotted (and shot - in the slideshow) a group of old Nissan enthusiasts cars in a truckstop carpark... oh and a Izuzu Billet also...

Isuzu Bellet - I went to tafe with a guy who raced them. I think he said it was like driving a greenhouse but once done up they were ok.

A VL wouldn't be significantly more expensive to rego and run than a 32/33 GTR or a TT Supra. It is just for fun as I live less than 5 mins walk from my work.

I have seen a bunch of older cars since I have been here, probably from living in the sticks. 240zxs, 1960s Skylines/Corollas, heaps of American cars and a bunch of other stuff. Datsun 1200 utes have a cult following - although they were still being manufactured in Japan for a lot longer than in Australia (still being made new in Africa I think - called Blackie).

finally scanned our Disney Land Splash Mountain pic...

Hehehe the couple in the back look like they have something other than zero gravity and two dimensional characters on their mind.

Cool pic :thanks:

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
