Hopefully not a repost..

Starts at about 4 min.

"Intrigued to say the least, he was just sleeping lol. Then woke to find windows covered and people shouting . Probably another crazy game show"

"My Wife just translated it for me.

The police noticed the car parked suspiciously, so they did a number plate check. The Number plate was reported stolen, so they took a look inside. The guy sleeping inside was identified as someone wanted (maybe for murder, but my wife wasn't sure). Supposedly he had a rep for being violent, so they performed the unusual ritual on the car while he was asleep."

Reminded me of one of those Steve Erwin jobs where he wakes up a sleeping Crocodile just to jump on it and try and wrestle the thing into a truck..gotta admit this guy has some balls if not brains..

oh and why did the cops not just break into the boot or similar and disconnect the battery etc? im not much of a mechanic but surely there would be a way to disable the thing from the outside?

yeah that last minute or so was quite painful to watch, he must have been having a nice old slumber before being woken up by half of Tokyo's finest. wonder if the owner would bother getting it fixed or just throw it to the auction houses?

those cops are seriously retarded. even after all the stupid stop sticks and barriers and then a van and a bus he still nearly got away. they put the bus in front of him but the van was meters behind giving him a good run up which put his life and theirs in danger and if he'd been able to see which way to turn chances are he would ahve gotten out without a good launch in the right direction.

instead of fking about with all that crap all they had to do was put the van right on the rear bumper and the bus right on the front bumper then kick in the window and haul him out. but no, they'd much rather call in 20 cops, 5 vehicles and spend an hour or two pissing about.

I did like that typical japanese he's braking the law but still put his left indicator on to exit the curb... 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.

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

      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.
