Hey Maverick I did check yours out and it to appears to be in Smick condition also(Definately not a POS!) :P

I got lucky with this one, its real neat, importing is always a gamble but honestly I would have been very happy with anything that was'nt a Lemon / POS.

Heres a few pics of the motor...

Thx dood.....needs a fair bit more TLC yet until shes sparkling clean :rofl:

BTW, I take back what I said earlier in thread regarding tramlining....drove my Car last few days with factory wheels and as new tyres, did'nt tramline hardly at all.

Turns out its my Dodgy 'worn on inside' tyres that were to blame, maybe the extra width didnt help either, but whichever it currently borders on the dangerous...!

is that a 34 motor?

It's not a 34 motor. At least im pretty sure it isnt. Looks clean though, probably recent rebuild.

About tramlining - I find tramlining has everything to do with the type/wear on the tyres and very little to do with the actual width of the tyre. I've tried a set of worn 245's before and they were basically undriveable on city roads and a set of new 255's which had no detectable tramlining at all.

This turned out to be the case in mine :(

Had to use a set of Factory GTR rims to comply it, they had brand new tyres....and my car did not tramline at all :D

My tyres on my R34 GTR rims are worn on the inside quite badly and some look to have been overinflated as are worn in the middle....I'll keep driving on them for a while yet...but geez do not let go of the wheel on a 'secondary type road' or you'll be off it ! :thumbsup:

Nope...sum1 asked bout the motor being R34...u can tell it isn't as the 34 GTR has different writing on the coil-pack/spark plug cover

Nah...it ain't a 34 Motor :D

I painted it, basically to keep with the R34 theme of the car......well it has R34 wheels and I figure thats enough to start a theme :) :)

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
