based ont eh rover 3.5L v8..360kw

but if sunbeams came with USA v8's and ddesigned to fit a 427 anyhow.. why not?

lol @ rover V8.

yeah thats what im talking about. but less cobra, more clean/subtle.

will look into 427.

so far my only thoughts are: bigg-ish V8. manual. EFI w/ ecu. maybe ITBs.

Yeahhh m8888 V8's!

Fark the JDM's

Saw this on friends facebook post. Apparently the admins drive ADM Jap cars

*Note not a member of the club, there seems to be a billion different facebook groups

So if I understand his English correctly...they're banning Evos GTRs Stageas GTIRs etc. from their club?

Guy sounds like a professional, from a professional car club.

Nissan make ADM cars? I thought they were all imported from Japan... Or perhaps Korea... Or possibly China.

Anyway, the Stagea isn't gay enough to participate in Facebook groups, or anything that has JDM in the name.

corvette Convertible sounds like would work perfect.

much cheaper than building what your thinking as well...plus can put side pipes on it!!!

yes you can actually get a Aust made skyline:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_industry_in_Australia#Nissan_Australia

but ADM does mean Australia domestic Market, so cars made for sale by a manufacturer sold direct in that area, no specifications on where they were build.

thus there ADM and JDM S15's both build and brought in from japan just some grey import and some ADM as sold by nissan.

I could have just bought a V6 statesman for $3k. But I got the Gloria instead. Becoz it's awesome.

Could just get a sunbeam tiger fully restored for $50k+ but I would rather rat the duck out of an alpine and put a big V8 in it

"The lower price [iron Ore] means service industries such as tourism and education have overtaken iron ore as Australia's biggest export earning sectors for the first time since explosive growth in China's steel industry a decade ago ignited a mining boom, according to the Reserve Bank of Australia.

Demand for iron ore is set to soften even more after China recently set its lowest target for economic growth in 15 years.

Iron ore miners have been counting on a drop in output from outdated and inefficient Chinese mines to help toughen a soft market but this month acknowledged that process, too, is slowing"

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
