but didnt you say your biggest problem was having the rear wheel lift up and lose traction when trying to get into your steep driveway? making things stiffer will mean youll be parking in the street...

ive got no bracing, and yet i can still hear the pillars creak when i try to get over my driveway gutter

Yeah i did have a problem but since i live on a hill i just come in from the top way and roll in on an angle. I had problems befpre because i was going in uphill.

Would I be correct in saying that delivery date is likely to be minimum 8 weeks from 31 July?

You said 6 weeks for production in the opening post, so I figure a week or so to deliver to Australia, then about a week for them to reach the individual states?

Sounds about right........give us a couple of days to process payments to OX though.

Mark....I don't have a defined date.....but I would think toward the end of next month for delivery.

Are you coming to Sydney to pick it up? I want to see a good looking V35: P

Hahahah V35 - yes, good looking - no!! Its not looking the best at the moment but no point doing anything because of the stagea nose. yeah ill travel to sydney if its not to far out of the way. I felt so embarrassed picking up the front brace and stag bar of dale with a damaged front end.

ETA is about right there!

These are a special order which Ox are making for us - i was told 6 weeks from payment to have them completed, then allow another week or so for delivery. When we first contacted Ox they only had 1 in stock as they do now according to their website (bottom number in table next to first image is 'no. in stock'): http://www.oxmotorsports.co.jp/7_9.html

As soon as we know more, either Craig or i will advise in this thread...

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
