There's none anywhere near me.

Looked into WMI setups then? Its why i got the flex fuel setup with JEM as i knew E85 wouldn't always be an option.........

Your car is way too quiet man :P

yeah i agree its all engine, need some more exhaust angryness... if thats a word..

That is the whole aim of the build, stealth :ph34r:

And Martin i am surprised i didnt hear your car from over here while you were at powercruise lol

Only because you weren't listening hard enough, not because I wasn't making enough noise :laugh:

Gearbox looks good man, nasty bit is out of sight out of mind! :P

Haha i heard LOTS of pigeons ;) I am going to blank the BOV just for Nats and Powerplay just for you :P

Yeah it cleaned up OK, still not happy with it and will remove the box and replace the thing when i get a chance, for now i am just over the car so i better get it back running so i can fall in love with it all over again!

This is a feeling I am familiar with!

Cars appear quieter in most vids. Im sure it is alot louder in the flesh.

Haha I know I know, I'm just giving Mat shit because our cars are so similar :laugh:

Haha Benji you havent really heard it yet :P

Yeah Martin, you knew that feeling for TOO long, why cant both our cars run right for a change lol

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
