Well just to let people know that JMS will be back in the next few months. It will be under new MANAGMENT but they have new stock coming in late this month and should be opening next month.

It is on the JMS web site.

I thought it got sold a long white back? At least a year.

im assuming your talking bout the white gtr33 of their's. If so, im sure it did but was just asking if n1gtr33 owns it now. As ive seen the exact same one all the time in the unley area when im down there. Only thing that it was missing are the stickers.

Quote from a user from ns.com

"Hey Guys

Well here is everthing explained in black and white.

The JMS Name and web address where bought by a mate of mine here in Gawler who has been doing small import stuff for years and was involved with JMS back in the early days. His name is Ben Stack his dad Bernie Stack is involved in alot of the classic rallies here in SA and the Targa tasman. Bernie is also a owner of Gawler Bodyworks Crash Repairers. Bernie also owns our building where i work.

Ben will be operating just as a web based company for the time being and slowly build himself up. I will be helping him out with a few things here and there as basically he is going to operate out of our workshop here at GraphiX.

Ben has two cars here atm which are for sale a complied cefiro and the uncomplied (will be complied) skyline that you most probably saw at autosalon. He also has a container of engines and other bits coming soon so keep a watch on the site to see when it gets here.

Also as for the old JMS premises well 'BULLIVANTS' a cable and rigging company will be moving in their so no more skids "

Well you said it good luck to the new owner.

And No I don't own the White GTR I can't even remember my colour it has been so long. I should go and fire the old girl up and make sure it still run's.

The white one was in Tilbrooks not that long ago. Don't know who owns it.

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups.

      The Evolution Of "night Fury"

      By jez NF · Posted

      75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.

      Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet

      gauge needle removal

      By JC71 · Posted

      okay, so I figured this out, removed needles and reinstalled after swapping the gauge face on my triple gauge for my ER34, all work and look good. I tried to do the same for the main cluster, but the main cluster gauge faces are dished, the replacement gauge face are flat, so due to the dish in the org face ,mounting backing plate (clear) and depth of the needle, the flat gauge face will not work. I notice that R34 gtr gauges are flat, appears to be different clear backing plate that aren't dished. are these available, or what have others done to install flat gauge faces?

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Erelyes · Posted

      Cheers mate. Seems some people get lucky others don't. It looks like the motor was detonating (to be expected if it was overboosting I suppose) as the pistons had a lot of detonation damage, and the bearings were stuffed. The bores were very scoured too, not sure if that's from the pistons or bits of ceramic turbo. By the by now. Have been trying to avoid the rabbit hole too much on the rebuild, and there's been a few hurdles along the way, but with any luck I'll have the car back soon™. Might even pop up a thread then.
