Is it a Jada Toys job? PLEASE SAY YES, I know of a place in Penrith that is having a sale of their stuff.

If it was at Auto Joy in Castle Hill, I'm spewing I didn't see them the other day when I was there.

Oh well, pay week this week, so I might have to go back on the weekend. Here's what I've got now, anyway.

Yessum, s!im and moonie are right, Castle Hil Autojoy ;)

Not really sure what brand, but it says HOTWORKS Racing factory all over the box.

Looks like it's the same one as yours nightcrawler :thumbsup:

I'm guessing Autojoy at Castle Hill will get a few orders now hey? hehehe

yeah the brand is hotworks. they have heaps of different ones. Z-tune GTR, R+S tune GTR, Option Stream Z, RX-7 etc etc. nice toys I bought one of the GTR ones when I was in japan. it was a bitch to carry back with all my other crap. plus it wasn't that much cheaper than here.

hahaha you've even got little PEOPLE!! :)

I've got a purple 1:43 scale R34 GTR (auto art brand)

want to get the same size yellow one, so I've got my 2 fave colours

Can't get the bigger sizes cos I don't have space for them!!

Shell: The little people came with the cars - they're the characters from Initial D...

RIK: That's only part of my collection - I've got a Calsonic R-34 r/c car (approx 1:10 scale) that my friend bought me for Christmas a few years back, it's a cheapo one but it looks accurate.

The little red R-34 in the middle of that shot is an r/c car too, and you can change the suspension and gearing on it, as well as adjust the turning circle on it from the remote...

You guys need to build REAL models... the new Skyline kits from Tamiya are absolutely awesome. They've got the Calsonic Skyline as well and that is hot.

Notably, I still love the Pennzoil Nismo GTR I built years ago :)

$59? You got ripped off dude. I bought an RX7 for myself and another for my mate - they were like $35ea - this was a few months ago though...

i doubt they were genuine hot works models. even in japan they are (from memory) nearly 4000 yen. I know because I've been to a hobby shop there and seen them. if you seriously can get them for $35 I stand corrected, and could you get me an RX-7 one too. for $35 it's too good to say no. :rofl:

      Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
