mainly HPI, but at many of the local newsagents it will come with a 2 extra mags which are usually old episodes of zoom and HPI... I bought and issue of speed also and I liked it especially their awesome photograpy which makes the photography in HPI look really amatuer. I think the content of both is excellent. Speed is a dollar cheaper also.. I can only buy one occasionly cause I'm saving for the skyline....

i have subs to HPI and Drift battle. love em :rofl: i like the pure imports, not just japanese cars in aus. although that is noice. plus HPI make decent dvds, and drift battle has oone coming out soon. i rekon hot4s and autosalon are just the 'trailer queen' cars than are never really driven. whats the friggin point?

I have every issue of HPI and Speed and drift battle, great magainzes.

but I'd have to say that 'Hyper Rev - GTR specials' are my favourite.

Got 3 out of the 4.

Great pictures, good directory of performance parts aswell. too bad I can't read japanese and it's admn expensive.

yeah the Jap mags shame ours in a couple of ways. they are much more expensive though and I think the photography here is just as good. Just that they have a much wider pool of GTRs etc to draw from... when reading (well looking at Jap ones) I like GTR magazing, Club Skyline magazine is equally good and the 'I love skyline 32GTR one' is pretty damn good too.

over here I now like Autosalon mag, they have really picked up there game. Speed is good too and HPI was an old favourite I've had a sub to that for quite a few years. I also buy zoom and sometime motor too. point is I spend too much money on mags.

    • I'm guessing you mean something like this size? https://www.supercheapauto.com.au/p/bodyworx-bodyworx-hard-soft-sanding-block---70-x-135mm/594184.html?cgid=SCA01100303#srsltid=AfmBOoq_qZTEe3boann9BaHiB2f59dxJlosWLzCr0zm_weHgUlDX-N5f&start=6 Are they sanded completely flat?
    • Just a standard sanding block size. With the rock chipa they are quite small. I sanded them as you could feel the edges. 
    • Say you've just laid all your filler and your about to start sanding, how large is the sanding block your using?  Like a high fill primer? Technically possible but would be a nightmare. Just guessing from the photo, but they look small enough that you might get away with using a 1k spot putty. Normally you'd use something like this on pinholes but with the type of project you're working on I'd give it a go. 
    • Omg Brake pedal removal.. FML!!
    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road.
