nice bob - your gtr is a celebrity :)

thanks for sharing!

i cant read your image so i'll buy a copy for myself

Thanks Marco

I naturally can't post up readable text as the magazine would have my guts for garters but it is a good read and I thoroughly recommend the mag for the article.

Bob.

Great read!

How much of the article did you write Bob?

None..... but I did spend an hour on the phone to Cliff Chambers who wrote the article.

The only part that is factually incorrect is the stereo system. I told him it was a premium Clarion unit with a Blaupunkt Autoflex aerial but he called it a Blaupunkt system.

No big deal ...............

Bob.

The only thing I picked up was when he used the reference 'Sequential Turbo'. GTR's run 'Parallel twin-turbo'.

Still great read.

And your car Bob would have to be one of the most authentic GTR's around. Probably only second to a few oddballs in Japan who bought and stored them only :)Looked great on those pages.

Yes it is! ^ ^ ^ That's an awful faux pas (- an insult to Clarion)! :P

Nice to see your car doesn't have a mistake - even if they can't quite get all the details right Bob!

Thanks for the kind words.......

I still have a few cosmetic blemishes I'd like to correct. Hopefully these will be done by the end of the year.

Cheers,

Bob.

    • 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.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
