Been looking at the local ones and they are all modified and molested.

When you think about it they have all come in via import so I want to start from the start and get something nice and clean.

Also I don't have the time to go running around the country inspecting them.

If I get it through Iron Chef then he has people on the docks inspecting and they come with a grading haha so easier for me.

Why you go the import route? (honestly curious)34s around these parts I believe are less than this 16k figure...

yeah i reckon 34s here are 12k for a nice one plus you still need to get it passed dickson. i would look here first bringing a panel of experts there are nice examples around.

why the change in model anyway, besides stock s1 r33's look like a bag of dicks?

Haha to be honest I don't mind the S1 R33 the 34 does look much better though
But I just want something more reliable, not so old and newer model.

The 33 is nearing about 210,000km and everytime I replace something I find something else that needs fixing.

It's a never ending story with a car thats 20 years old.

I don't mind spending 16k importing a well looked after 34 with low km.

if you save up just a little more you can get a 34GTR Ive seen a few oing around 28000 from Japland. I imported mine and honestly the condition was better than all the one i had looked at. Things may have changed now with the market

:laugh:NEO is appealing.

yeah thats fair enough, plus the neo head is appealing. Get some real wheels for your next car though....

haha........i got vs xx's brand new delivered to my door for 2k i had to wait though.

Yeah I love those wheels.. If they were 1800 I might consider it in the future.. But all the ones I can find are around 3 grand lol... Far to expensive for my liking :(

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
