We had a couple at the last drift comp in WA, and the number of competing Cefiros in the next comp will be double that of the last. Its progressing :) I bought a lot of spare parts with my car too. A few sets of front ends just incase :D

I'll be stoked to see more cefiros out there. I have a ceffy and a Sil80 but i think the sil80 is a better drifter, hence me using that for drift events and the ceffy will be the cruiser.

I have also considered bringing another cefiro in for drift purposes and selling the sil80.. but probably won't cos of excess laziness.

Anyone have a passenger side front blinker assembly spare? also passenger front seatbelt... i need both for rego/compliance

Hi guys,

Heres mine.. some people have already seen the pics but for those that havent theyre located here: http://www.aussiewheels.com/profile/View.p...&PhotoGallery=1

Specas are also located on that site and not all of them are known as yet.

Mark i believe you got urs thru meggala yeah? i seen the pics of it doing the qtr :P very nice...

I will be using mine as a circuit/drift car as its already setup that way.

Its currently sitting in the Brisbane docks ready to be deported :P to melbourne.

The brown turns me off a little.

jaik, what model does it say on your build plate? the trim in yours looks quite different to the ones I have seen.

I havent got my car yet. But its a CA31 (bah bloody hicas) but it is a black/gray interior. I have attached my vehicle information from the Nissan FAST software and it doesnt show me the interior trim code ;(

i probably would have preferred a grandads car, but mine appears to have had suspension before and a drivers seat. no sign of any guaging however, so i dont know to what extent my car has been thrased. its had a manual conversion so i presume the clutch should be half decent, and i can only dream that its got a 25 box in it (harsh reality of it being a 20 box, hopefully a turbo one -anyone know how to tell the difference?) and I suspect a standard LSD is in place too. Ah well Im throwing a couple of grand at it to handle better (ie to aid in recovery from driver error) so she'll be right mate.

JK

I seriously doubt you would have got a 25 box, but i think that the 20 NA box and 20 turbo box are probably the same strength with different ratios on a couple of gears (similar scenario to SR boxes)

If you will be drifting the thing, you will need better than the standard LSD.

Let us know what specific model it is when you get the car... be interesting to tell the difference between (from what I have read) the VL, SE, VE and SE-t models.

Yeah dont worry, I plan on documenting EVERYTHING I do on the car to help the rest of the new Cefiro owners. Every mod I do, every factory thing I butcher, everything will be on my website. Lots of pics too! I might even get game and post all the microfiche for the A31 series aswell.

JK

I plan to immediately do timing belt, cams, sprockets, water pump, o2 sensor, ecu water temp sensor, fuel pump, gtr injectors, coilovers, z32 brakes etc so I guess even though its been documented before I may aswell do it again. Who knows, someone might find it useful some day.

The stuff I have sitting at home for mine for after compliance include:

SR20DET+5speed (s15 turbo, stainless manifold, 550's, emanage, bb clutch)

FMIC

Trust whiteface electric guages (boost, oil press, oil temp, water temp, exh temp)

Bride seat + rail

alloy subframe bushes

Should be ok once done

    • 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.
