Hey guys,

I'm an Aussie gtr owner based in Tokyo (kanagawa as of last month), and was wondering who of you also live in the land of the rising sun?

Hopefully if there are enough of us we could arrange the occasional meet up?

if you live in japan post a quick reply with your name, and area of residence in japan, and your car if you have one.

cheers!

Totally awesome!! If you could post these pics up regularly, I'd love to share them among the social networks. We love this stuff!

Would be great to have a little SAU contingent in Japan!!

For sure man, will do.

I might have to get myself a better camera and start getting quality pics.

I've also got some tokyo car videos on my youtube page Tokyo TV

That was awesome, well edited too.

I think posting this stuff in the Japan section and I'll promote them around the site and on FB/Twitter etc.

I absolutely *love* those EVO wagons. So freaking cool.

Those Porsches also make my knees weak!

You can post videos with [ youtube ] bbcode.

If you do add a video, please tag the thread with 'video' as we have a bit of a video index page - http://www.sau.com.au/forums/page/videos

mate, you know what kills me? when i was looking for a car in early 2012 i saw a right hand drive 993 for around 25 grand Aussie! at the time i didn't quite have the money, and was a couple of months from being ready to buy a car. the cheapest one i can find now is 50+ grand! i also saw this happen with the hakosuka, and ken&mary non gtr skylines. prices on most modern classic cars is really going up in japan!

cool mate i'll start adding more content as i get the r32 out on the wangan, and to the meets here. i'll also try to get some dyno videos from Top Secret when i get it tuned.

cheers mate!

Any more Japanese based members on here?

To bump your old thread, I'm living in Yokohama (out near Kamiooka station) and working in Minato Mirai

I have yet to experience Daikokufuto, in the past when my friend tried to take me it was closed, so we went to Tatsumi and Umihotaro.

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
