dont u also have to pay luxuary car tax aswell ?

Yes you do depending on cost , it comes in at above $56 k but you only pay on the sum above that not on the whole cost .

Hey Guys,

I know a little japanese, so does anyone know of any japanese performance car yard sites?? It might be easier to find a good yard (or 5) and travel over there and do it that way..

Or do they have big f-off auctions??

cheers,

Ben.

Try this, http://www.rabbit.ne.jp/ or this http://www.gtnet.co.jp/home/menu.html

But they are not cheap , the auctions are much cheaper .

How is the gtr  going Kris ? Mine is still locked up in the garage in Osaka , waiting for a ship and colecting dust .

It's doing great. It's still almost stock though just haven't had the time lately to put into researching and getting bits for it.

Cant wait to see yours :P

We bought a bayside blue one out of Qld late last year with 290awkw rebuilt engine by Gavin Wood, lots of mods in the way of suspension etc and it owes my client under $85K parked at his door.

It is a beautiful car and was the one featured on the front cover of HPI 9.

So it shows there are bargains( or we think it is) that can be had locally.

Cheers

Ken

Again, not cheap. Auctions will be far cheaper but more of a gamble (then again, its not like its a 15 year old car though :().

Don't discount the chances of getting a bargain locally, but if I were you, I would focus my energies on the auction scene in Japan. Most of the reputable agents offer the majority of their fee back if you don't buy anyway, so you might loose a couple of hundred at most.

LW.

I saw an add for an R34 GTR V Spec in Black with some minor mods for $99k. Otherwise, I havent really seen any R34 GTR's for sale around Australia. You should go to Japan because there you'll have a greater selection. Find the best example and export it back to Australia.

i know that www.j-spec.com.au have some R34 plates still, if you wanted to secure a plate and import at the same time. I got my R34 (GT-T) through them.

R34 GTR, 15,000km's and $75k? not a chance... i've heard dodge things about some ballarat import yard...

Yes, I looked at an R34 in Ballarat, airbags hanging out of the dash and steering wheel... not good.

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
