Just came back from japan the other day, stuf isn't that cheap over there. Looked at some 20" Work wheels, would have cost round $2900-$3000 plus the cost of shipping. Got a price from the aussie distributor and it was $3250 delivered to my door. Just something to think about.

Back from the land of the rising sun..amazing trip - would recommend it to anyone.

Ended up sourcing the 19" OEM Rays wheels domestically before i left however I did find a set of used Nismo S-tune Suspension for V35 on a yahoo.jp auction. Picked it up for Y42500 which is the equivalent to about $450AUD. I thought it was a great find. Fitted it yesterday and noticed the difference! Photo attached below - theres about 15-20mm drop from estimate without measuring.

Visited Super Autobacs in Tokyo Bay only to find that they only really stock performance parts for BRZ/86gt however most other parts could be ordered in. Basically a supercheap auto or an autobahn with a performance section and a variety of brand named wheels.

For used parts the numerous Up Garages stocked loads of V series parts so very worthwhile visiting/browing their online stock these guys have a reputation of dealing only with local buyers so would recommend visting if you are over there.

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
