Cool, thanks :)

The clear indicators are standard on Avantes I think. So that would indicate you have got different lights on there. Then again, lots of people just change the orange ones to clear anyway.

I just hope I can keep my xenons and S2 taillights.

With the side ones, I'll definitely see if I can supply them with a set.

Overall, it doesn't seem like much was changed during compliance.

That's very good to hear that they come with the actual glass tinted btw.

So what are the actual trim levels and the differences? Avantes and ??? I've also noticed that you have no badges on yours (bar the Toyo badge), while i have only got "Tourer V" on mine, while other chasers actually have "Chaser" on them too. Weird....

Looks nice :)

Those blinkers are the same as the Avante ones. The other clear blinker type you can get seems to block out all the orangeness of the bulb somehow, but they aren't as clear looking as yours (more like the orange ones on mine, but in clear). So they could be a whole Avante light set, or it could just be the side blinkers. I'm really not too sure :rofl:

I wanted one so bad, but about $40k more than the cef for a manual, not quite in the price range (about 2years ago that was tho)

One was bought the other day at Kyushu Gold a Auto 100,000 klm 4/B in White JZX100 Tourer V for 690,000 car cost so around $20,000 plus Rego, not too bad I would say.

The price is coming down,

But that is always the case for over 100k klms cars, the prices are substantially cheaper than say an 80k car. That being said, when i purchased my car about 12months ago i paid close to 800,000 FOB for a series 1, 4/b, 1/98 with 90k kms on it, which i thought was pretty damn good at the time. Everytime you look you always seem to find a car which is slightly cheaper than the one you bought :cheers:

  • 3 weeks later...
xenons and they do have to be modified to meet ADR's. regardless of year.

It is a $15 dollar mod or spend $4,000 for every time you want to test the lights for approval, 2 tests and $8,000 lot of money to make back when not a lot of JZX100's are coming in.

Not like R34's were spare lights are around and you can swap for compliance.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
