hey guys, speaking of parents knowing parents, my dad grew up in beaconsfield, and his 3 brothers still live around launseston. My mum also grew up on Flinders Island and now my sister lives there too. It seems like everoyne knows each other over there, my mum went to school with David Boon(the cricket dude)!

Tasmania is cool , i remebr going to the cadbury factory when i was little.

when is this going to happen?

I am trying to sell my car and may not have a new one by next week if I manage to sell it.

But when it happens, I figure a couple of ideas on public highways aswell as the backroads, I know of one in particular that has some twists and turns. What kind of roads are you guys interested in?

  • 4 weeks later...

umm... looks like Dave didn't respond to that Post... He just received his 180sx a few days ago.. Still needs roadworthy and registration.

Anway he should have it on the road soon, that way the S13 and 180 should both be runnin a cruise to Hobart soon..

That was his plan last time I heard. maybe in the next week or two it will happen

that has got to be the WORST weekend for me, lol.

I am celebrating my 18 month anniversary with the girfriend.

The following weekend I will be in launnie if it matters.

Hmmm, for the next three weekends after, I will be working the Saturday. Could be a problem.

But, when you are up, drop me a line, and at the very least, we can cruise in Lonnie on Sat night.

Zsky, will be finalising times in the next day or two. I will keep you posted....

i'm not sure weather i will be able to make it now because i have fan clutch problems on my car well not so much the fan clutch but a fan blade to fit it as the original one dosen't fit and i am having a hard time trying to get one that does, i bought a davies graig fan clutch as someone on this forum recommended it.

sorry I couldn't make it if in fact you guys came down for a cruise.

I am free weekends, but work every second saturday, sundays are nearly always free for me.

let me know.

btw slaz: thanks for looking for interest in my car, I can't see anyone buying it though, I will keep thinking of what I want to do.

RB25!

heheh. I am thinking of the same conversion to the 180sx, all i need is $$$. *sigh* I love those RB engines, they are awesome. So smooth, compared to the SR20DET.

No, I did not go for a cruise. I work every second weekend too (normally) but I have to look after the shop for the next two weeks. Should give me some time to do a bit more work on the 180 (boost, general tidying up)

A few friends are going down this weekend (inclusing the Silvia I imported) but I wont be going down until probably three weekends away.

Let us set this date. Get back to me if you can make it. Would be great to finally meet you (and your beast)

Zsky, give your stamp of approval too.....

    • You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not
    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
