Hi everyone, it was great to meet VQ-series owners on cruise no.6.

Thank you to all who attended and those who couldn't attend, we look forward to seeing you in future events.

Photos should be uploaded during this week.

Thank you.

Awesome! Looks like you guys had a lot of fun. I will definitely be there for the next event.

Hi Mikhail, yes. We had a great time.

We would have like more V-series, but it's all about catching up with fellow owners once-in-a-while. So it's all good.

At this moment, the date for the meet-and-greet is not set yet. Maybe at the end of May if the weather is fine.

Looking forward to seeing you and your V35, Mikhail. Keep us updated.

hey victor, was certainly good catching up and meeting some new V owners. Sorry I couldn't make it for the whole cruise (and for turning up at Powis St car park at 1.45pm..dohhh!! honestly thought it was a 1.30 meet up and a 2pm departure)

seeing all the cars dressed up makes me want a kit even more now.

i may be getting a front bumper next month. if anyone else is interested, just send me a pm.

I can organise this for WA owners only coz really don't have time to arrange for interstate shipping.

Hi Roy, no problem at all. Thank you for at least coming to one stop and catching up with us. It had been a long time (1 year) that I last saw you. :P

Your new wheels looks good! :thumbsup: What front bumper are you getting?

well was contemplating the K2 Remix, until Steve convinced me that it looked ghey, and the Kuruma z hangs too low and I scrape badly in most places as it is. So might end up getting a nismo front & possibly impul sides. Other option is just a front lip to keep it nice and clean.

btw, where did u get ur kit fitted n painted? i want to know how much it cost for painting & fitting a whole bumper vs just a front lip.

Cheers Victor.

ps: looking forward to a meet n greet in May.

Kuruma Z looks nice. There is one silver V35 coupe in Perth with it. I am also sure it is lower than K2.

Just a lip kit will look cleaner and stockish, just depends on your liking.

I believe I got mine fitted for $350 by Robb at Hybrid Customs in Welshpool. He's very good, fitted mine all nice and straight and Kinh's whole kit perfect.

Name: Robb

Mobile: 0410 861 877

Company: Hybrid Customs

Address: Unit 138, Radium Street, Welshpool WA

I got it painted by a guy called Hammid for $800 painting the whole kit. I can't remember his details at the moment but can find out from my other friends. He's not the best. My paint matched like 80%, plus I was in a hurry to finish for the Autosalon so I rushed him abit. :P He did a good job on my friends's cars before. Anyhow, Robb has his own personal contact for painting the kit. I just didn't go to his contact because I already booked in with Hammid. Let me know if you want his number.

Roy, have you thought about this kit (http://www.vertex-aus.com/products_digna_v35.html)?

One of my favourite. :thumbsup:

nice. haven't seen that kit before. front looks a bit like INGS but i dont want a kit that stoops too low. i drive around a lot of places where there's a steep incline and always scrape the bumper.

For me, this one is still nicer than INGS. Reason I didn't get it instead of Veilside was I didn't have time to wait for it back then.

Roy, V35 coupes are quite low even from factory. So whatever kit you put on will make it lower.

The look you got now is still ok. Your's black, so you can get away without the kit.

    • 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.
