Hey Blitz,

I will be staying at the hotel (new T) on the 14th, we fly out the next day so Friday is the only day I can have a look around. What are you guys up to on Fri??

Ken

Ken,

I assume you mean the New Tsukamoto hotel? Friday is the press day for Autosalon which we hope to get into. If you are at the New Tsukamoto then we can meet after autosalon for the nights festivities. There will be a number of us staying at that hotel.

Hi,

I am Japtaxi's gf - living in Nagoya, Japan. We are coming up to Tokyo on Friday night. Here is where we are staying for Friday, Sat and Sun nights:

I am not sure how far/close it is to TAS. We are also going to stay here on Mon/Tues night:

Then on Wed we are heading up to Sapporo, Hokkaido for 4 days and 3 nights. Then it is back to Nagoya and back to work for me the following week.

Japtaxi will have a JR Pass and I won't, so I plan on getting any train tickets when we want to catch the train - will this be a problem? I hope we can sit together.... :Oops:

Basically you need to be a member of a press association, and/or be covering the event for a publication. Don't take my word as law though, this is just the requirements as I understand them.

      Torana Lx Gtr Hatch, Lots Of Pictures

      Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing

      I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.

      Well, yeah. But I just expect everything other than my car to feel like a bucket of shit anyway. I still miss my Alfa 116 so much though. You could run over a 20c piece and tell whether it was heads or tails.
