Hopefully your line will survive the trip if not then mine is for sale.

I have test driven the Aero Top TT supra and This is my summary so far, The good

it sounds f**king amazing (exhaust is running from 2.5 at the front to 4" carbon fibre twin mufflers at the back makes a V8 supercar sound like a matchbox toy)

It drives really well and has a new clutch and some steel wheel turbo's

It runs 17-18psi when both are on the power (above4k rpm)

It is regularly detailed including the engine bay (you wouldn't believe a spanner had ever been in there)

Lady owner who doesn't flog it.

now for the bad,

She's done 180,000 KM's

I haven't seen any recipts to show the work has been done and don't know the car well enough to be confident in my assessment of the power it makes,

It has the usual rattles Imports get from being driven on our shitty roads.

Sequential turbo's piss me off.

Apart from these gripes she is a great car and still on my list for potential purchase pending further research.

What coin she asking? What year? What power is it making as well. At a guess would be around the 300 to 350 mark which is achievable with the steel turbo's?? Things to consider would be T belt being due very soon so you'll have coin to outlay straight up, unless it's already been done. Best thing about these is the options are endless for these for turbo choice as we all know without opening the motor. A pair of HTA3076R's would be awesome hanging off the side top mounted lol. Capable of 1000hp it would be the choice I'd go as you won't need to upgrade turbos for awhile.

she want's 25k,

it's a 98 model,

it's making 338rwhp (haven't seen the dyno sheets) but it feels it.,

yeah 100k service is one of my concerns with buying it.

Won't be powering it up much beyond what it is now as it would still be a daily driver.

nice, sounds like the go to me.

chances are thats part of her reason for selling it. some people just cant justify the price of the 100k service, and sell the car at that point instead. (or 200K in your case).

spotted you again Brad. yesterday morning on the way to work, i was the guy in the little blue VW Beetle with his arm out the window heading the other way as you powered out of the round about on Buchananananans/graham rd. on your way to work i assume. car sounds nice aswell as looks nice :thumbsup:

you will likely see my wifes stock silver R33 4 door plats are DEB189 on its way to and from narangba to the north bound BP on the highway, she just started working there till she can find a better job, to say this place is unorganised is an understatement! shes been there a week and already wants to chuck it in because its so retarded

I went for a drive in the Cammo S15 (think tiger cammo)

It is scary fast like shit your pants if you don't have huge brass ones powerful.

It has had the engine carefully built and tuned it is making 420hp atw (RB25DET) she sounds sexual and looks great.

Downside is that they still have to get the rev's gauge sorted out, speedo sorted out and wire up the gauge pods that now reside in the middle vent holes, uni's need doing and some new front tires.

oh and a new clutch something tells me it will eat a few of those.

she looks the part and goes like a shower of shit but she needs a few things done to fully sell me on it, They are gonna give me a ring monday to tell me if they can do all that at the right price.

nice, sounds like the go to me.

Thought I saw someone wave. You were game to wave, it was bloody cold lol. Yeah was on the way to work. I'll look out for ya next time.

Ladies and gents after many test pilot sessions, hours of staring at cars on the internet, 1000km's of driving and way too much mc'donalds A clear winner has been chosen. I purchased a...Drum roll please...A 1998 R34 Coupe 84k km's on the clock with some sexy shoes and a sweet exhaust she is already packing a hks ssq (real deal one not a knock off ) and what appears to be some coil overs (not sure might just be some stock shit) To say hello to her I have already ordered my stealth intercooler kit and my CF GT wing. I will be looking for a power FC for her if anyone knows someone looking to sell one for an ER34 also grabbed an alarm and gizmo EBC / Gauge with a turbo timer.

farm fantastic = time to stock up on barbed wire and other farming gear... :D

buy a $5 wood fire pizza and $1 coke, real old school value...

shame entry is so much these days... considering how much the vendors pay to be there...

its not a bad show actually, cool seeing all the new earth moving/farming equipment...

Dont know if anyone seen me before

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
