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 don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
    • With ordering the belt, you're doing water pump and the idler and tensioner at the same time too yes?
    • This is just a dumb way of keeping the wastegate closed to make more boost. Undo it and either follow the factory setup or redo it properly. Manual boost controllers just use a spring preload to determine when to close in response to boost pressure so it no longer vents to atmosphere.
    • So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House
