Help - sold my daily car and hoping to buy this when I back in Perth in 2 weeks - 2012 Nissan Skyline 370GT Type P Crossover J50 Auto [emoji28]

Import car and what’s the best option to ship
It over - it’s in Melbourne now IMG_1762.jpgIMG_1763.jpg

Here are some pics. . .
You should really see the video of my reaction when I first saw the car =D
Bought some ze40's  Got a weird size though. . . 17x8.5 +30 i think. . .
 
Then after getting Anonymouse  post bought a spare set of SSR type C (I reckon they fkn hot. . .)
18x9.5+15. Bought in Japan.. they gay gold colour will get them blasted painted probably gun metal + new stickers. .
 
Spent nights and nights researching wheels. . mainly weights. . these 2 are super light weight.
There is lighter but they dont look as sick as these. . Buddy club almost impossible to find. . Oz racing wanted some stupid price like $3,800 for the last set in aus. pfft. .  just got Rays ze's
 
Burning the credit card on car gear lol. all part of the fun..
 
Still havent taken it for a (proper) drive yet. . . =/ only to get paper work for licence application.
So its not really driving. .  no plates on the car so felt like a criminal. . and now i have the plates so..
Just need to chop or bend them to fit though.

Yo- so it’s on tonight - meet up at city west 5.30-6 :) we will be there !

Bagh,

Was at Sir James Mitchell Park at like 4 pm waiting for you guys then I got hit from left field with email at 5:30 saying its at City west. Anyway got uber there and caught up with you guys which was great. Nice group of people very welcoming, thanks guys =D

I did Remove my coil pack engine cover and tie up the igniter yesterday just before the cruise. Heard that they get hot and can cause issues. Will leave it off for the time being.

Anyway took the car out last night from 10 to 11pm. Just through the tunnel and up down freeway, down west coast. Ran fine didn't have any of that loose of power fluttering rpm's. (think issue is still there. . or will come back). But was fun drive. Puts such a big smile on my face. Love that car. . .

Will see you all next drive.

or ill put up a post when my new wheels come.

 

PS Thanks again ELLE for the drink I owe you. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Travel safe Elsie. Full cottons and tea towel on the head.

The car fell 5metres from a restaurant car park...

 

The 81 year old driver got a bump to the head, but the 81 year old passenger received a broken neck

    • 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.
