I have 6 of them - 3 for the Gtst's and variants (GTT's etc) and 2 for R32 and R33 GTR's - they are great, but you need an interpretor for the text as its all in japanese.

Christian.

I bought em for 300 Yen each, got most of the 32 n 33 ones, and I've translated half of em... now if only I can get around to puttin em onto a website. Registered www.japimports.info, but need hosting :thumbsup:

I'm waiting for my latest purchase to come thru... RB20 and RB25 DET ECU reprogramming guide + ECU Maps. mmmm where my eeprom programmer at?

Ahh wish I had more time to translate all of em... my god... Bought the last one for the tuning guide more than anything.

Next up on my to buy list are the R32 Series 2 and R33 Series 1 service manuals, that's worth about $200 in japan and they're about 2cm thick.

Rob you can borrow mine if you wanna have a read

oh and has anyone else noticed that after you read a few of these books, you start reading english books formt he back as well? My mates have busted me doing this and its quite embarrasing.

here's a sample of my lil collection...

My most prized book, the RB20/RB25 ECU tuning Guide

And the version for GTSt's n stuff that I have

I tried in the DIY section with My R32 classification guide, but you really need to layout pictures n stuff, there's only so much you can do in a thread format.

I don't mind building it as part of the SAU website (I guess I could con PranK into givin me some webspace, adn then I can design a proper thing.

For example...

scan_10077.jpg

This page is part of a dummies guide to Engine parts in an RB26 and what can be achieved by replacing each part with aftermarket parts etc.

It's just a bit of a hassle to put it in a thread based form rather than a table format illustration.

Rest assured I will put it all up once its sufficiently translated, just takes time (esp since my Kanji skills aren't too good and have to rely on my GF to do most of the complex words and she ain't too thrilled when I pull out car mags when she's tryin to spend quality time :( ).

np rob i'll bring a revspeed around for ya to flick thru at the meeting. You'll have to be careful tho, most of my mags have the staples taken out so I can scan em :D

prankeh, email sent...

    • If they can dyno them, get them dyno'd, make sure they're not leaking, and if they look okay on the dyno and are performing relatively well, put them in the car.   If they're leaking oil etc, and you feel so inclined, open them up yourself and see what you can do to fix it. The main thing you're trying to do is replace the parts that perish, like seals. You're not attempting to change the valving. You might even be able to find somewhere that has the Tein parts/rebuild kit if you dig hard.
    • Can you also make sure the invoices on the box (And none exist in the boxes) are below our import duty limits... I jest, there's nothing I need to actually purchase and order in. (Unless you can find me a rear diff carrier, brand new, for stupidly cheap, that is for a Toyota Landcruiser, HZJ105R GXL, 2000 year model...)  
    • Murphy strikes again! Nothing at all would have gone wrong if you had the tool kit in the car! You'd have just found the clamp loose the next time you went to touch it...
    • I have been being VERY quiet about what you're alluding to, as it is something that ticks me off... The number of cars from factory that run coil overs is HUGE! Most of them these days do... The other part that annoys me, is people saying "Well all the incabin adjustable suspension is illegal by blah blah blah"... If that's the case, then why can I buy a car brand new that can do it if, FULL STOP in cabin adjustable suspension is illegal...   Also, I could just chuck some aftermarket shocks in my car, throw the stock springs on, after my blue slip, dump my super low springs back in. Same shock and spring style setup... Hell, they could also be the same colour springs etc.     I'm voting, BlueSlipper didn't want to touch the above car for some reason. Whether it be some sort of bias against the car, the owner, them maybe having previously done dodgy shit and now they're being super careful in case they get slapped in the face by the Gumbyment again... Find a new blueslip place.   And can confirm as you had said, yes there are holy bibles of vehicle heights, and all sorts of other suspension stuff. Heck your run of the mill mechanic, and tyre shop has access to all of that stuff. It's how they do wheel alignments...
    • Funny story Heading to Sydney this morning on the HWY there was some slow traffic, so I gave it the beans and midway through my overtaking "power run" I lost all power It seems that I missed a hose clamp,  and the MAF and filter went WiFi To make this more problematic, the little tool kit that lives in the boot, is sitting in the sun room at Goulburn......LOL Luckily for me I found a bit of steel on the side of the road that could be used like a rusty and bent flat head screw driver to tighten it up enough that it got me into Sydney, it is now all tight like a tiger with the aid of a 8mm socket Note to self: Use my brain and double check stuff, and always keep that little tool kit in the car for when I have a brain fart
