Hey guys was out at the nats on the weekend and saw some pretty impressive skylines, most of which were showing the v8 boys a thing or two

was wondering if any1 had any pics to post

Did anyone get any hassles from the boys in blue?

we stood out the front and watched even the most standard of cars gettin defected for the hell of it. cars were just cruising out and gettin pulled over

Kind of discouraging us by doing the right thing and doing it on the track, not the streets.

Yeah the last standing skyline was my mates R33, its silver with black bonnet. It was a last minute decision to enter it glad we did though. We just got it back from JPC in thomastown pretty happy with the result dynoed at 310rwkw on 17psi only problem was we bought one of those cheap OBX regulators, it was shit so just bought a sard one and we r going back for a another tune. We were told that with all the mods we have including internals he reckons we'll get 370rwkw on pump fuel. The last run we had the tyre pressure was on 14psi so too much wheel spin, and didn't have a tyre pressure gauge so stuffed up. But next year it would be better if more imports came along but considering their was only probably 10% imports the skylines did really well.

I was in ma mates VL. Man that lil GSR boogies. And the white r33 with stockies ono the back WOW that had some balls. Was good weekend. Just wish the drift was a bit more governed to DRIFT not jsut demo's.

yeah we figured as such so didnt bother taking any of the cars down there.... if they get their shit together we would consider bringing some decent drift cars.

    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
    • Trailer got new mudguards to accommodate the new wheels Lightweight ally Painted, stickered and done ✅ 👌
