Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Got wind of what was said to be an R34 N1 about to be on sale, so confirmed with seller, re arranged meetings and took off to inspect. Get there, middle of nowhere, thing has a rear wiper and pearl white paint, query seller and discover it's actually V-spec II Nur, still ok, but has a full weld in cage and can no longer be regoed as a result. Now when you get on the phone and ask... does it have any modifications, apparently stripped out with a roll cage doesn't count, news to me. What a timewasting Jim Henson character!

    • Nah, turn the boost up, break the gearbox, and enjoy leaving it parked for a few years while you save for a better box...
    • I see those two Stageas have the "punched 40mm hole" deregistered Japanese number plates 👍 Nice kouki group shot with the different colours too. 
    • Ended up just being a loose exhaust bolt luckily.
    • Yeah I made that post way too early, sorry I must have assumed it was bad because it's a 20+ year old thrashed shitbox lol. It was just a loose exhaust bolt. 
    • Like others have said, drop the power to give your drivetrain a % of reliability until you can up the drivetrain reliability  It isn't rocket science, build power to the weakest link with a % of safety Whilst upping the the reliability of the drive train is costly, there's no point in having the engine make big power if it keeps eating the drivetrain....ask me how I know, I had the tow truck on speed dial for a few years, and I spent huge amounts of money fixing issues and breakages that really would have been cheaper in the long run if I did it right the first time Me, I like a nice sized fudge factor, that keeps me off the tow truck
