Just wanted to say bye to all you fellow line owners, my GTR has been sold & I've now taken delivery of my new ride.....

an EVO 8 (yep 1 of only 5 left in the country),

Thanks to all for your comments and help with my many trials & tribulations over the last 12 months, this site has been a godsend to me with respect to finding info, contacts etc. So thanks to all...

I'm sure I'll see some of you guys around the traps!

Cheers Cam

Nah man thats the specal UK version, which IS an insane car.

Umm what are you on bro...the come with a different tuned rom in the UK...

the Motec is the one sitting in the garage from the GTR...and it should run high 11's after fitment :boobs:

I agree with the "something cheaper" bloody corporate ripoff if you ask me...lol

Thanks guys & girls....

If you insist Erin, I'll hang around, don't want to impose a Mitsu on anyone though!

BTW that's exactly what I'll be getting for the EVO (Motec M800 plug n play), I am able to simply "swap" over my existing M800 for one of these. The beauty of these is they fit straight into the existing ECU casing!!

I'll post some pics up as soon as I get my slow arse into gear... hehe

Cheers Cam

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
