Rezz,

Mate the plan sounds good to me. two 4 hour chunks of exploring, then dinner and Daikoku. Who could ask for more?

The only problem is how to fill in time between now and January?

:)

gday everyone, my name is Steve. ill be definetly heading to the TAS this year, staying near shibuya-ku with my old man who lives there. will be catching the train in, would be stoked to meet up with some fellow aussies and car enthusiasts as ill be riding solo to the show it looks like.

i too would love to make it to daikoku, though am also car less. 100% in for throwing in toll, petrol money etc... if anyone has a seat and could drop me back in shibuya or roppongi!

alternativly if anyone is organising a rental keep me posted as sounds like a good idea too.

on website it mentions adv tickets can be purchased from lawson's convenience stores at a small discount, just a tip. not sure if that is all stores though.

Hi guys, even though Rezz will unfortunately not be in attendance, the 10am meeting point at the east exit of makuhari station is still on.

I will be with 3 others from SAU - hope to see the rest of you guys there

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
