After reading your fb page perhaps renaming it without generalizing on the n/a emphasis would perhaps be more suitable. Possibly "supra Silvia skyline soarer pulsar club with out turbos" or something similar.

Who cares.

so is this an import club or just a NA jap club? i checked out on FB and u haev ppl coming that are in imprezers n shiz

From the looks of it, it's a club for people with the slowest variants of Japanese cars.

I would say its for the younger generation that are not able to drive turbo cars, i can drive a turbo now but im to tall to fit into anything besides a V, S15 R33 R34 my head is in the roof of the car and my legs are touching the handbrake and steering wheel.

ive started up the forum for the melbourne n/a club if anyone's interested :) sign up !

Probably. They seem to make about as much sense as your average teenager.

They talk about wanting "Jap imports", which is normally code for grey imports, but they've got so many Australian-delivered cars.

They talk about being into "normally aspirated cars" but limit it to 4's and 6's with "no V8s", which rules out stuff like the Soarer & Celsior, which are far more "Jap import" than a Celica and still meet the NA requirements.

They say they don't want people with "brash natures", but one of the member cars is a NA JZA80 with the same Bomex front bar as the eye-searing F&F car.

But my original point is that their list of "suggested cars" are the pissweak versions of the vehicle. Their list comprises mostly of the slow-as-f**k NA variants of cars where you'd only actually want the FI ones, and they've opted for the Australian-delivered SSS Pulsar over the grey import VZR-N1. Not one car in their list is the halo model.

At the same time they've ignored the genuinely exciting NA cars that top their range, like Type-Rs or old BMWs. An E36 328i (which is P-plate legal) isn't going for that much these days. They do have a MX-5 member (and I rate the NA ones over the FI ones just from the purity of spirit) but they seem to be the exception, rather than the rule.

i can drive a turbo now but im to tall to fit into anything besides a V, S15 R33 R34 my head is in the roof of the car and my legs are touching the handbrake and steering wheel.

To be fair, the 350GT is the top-spec of its range. So my comment doesn't really apply to you.

What about going non-Nissan? Would you fit in Z30 Soarer? Or a JX90/100 Chaser? The JZA80 was built for the US market as well.

I havent tried the Chaser, but TBH im more of a 2 door man not that big on the 4 door cars, im going to look at some imports this weekend so ill probably sit in a chaser and a supra again, also gona look at evo 8 onwards also but i would much prefer a coupe over the sedan. I was not a huge fan of the soarer tbh.

    • Yeah good luck out there! Will be good to see a mighty GTST going harder than the GTRs
    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
