Say Hello To My New Drift Pig (project)


Recommended Posts

We're talking 135hp (100kw) at the engine!!! For a 2-door FR coupe, thats just not cricket.

That is not bad.Are you going to put a snail/turbo on it?

I'll probably leave at the end of September.

Why can't you get rims in Perth? Or tyres???

yeah cant seem to find decent rims and tyres for a good price here... im a deep dish kinda guy... and gettin from yahoo auction japan is still gonna cost lots to bring over here....

I've got something lined up in the very near future regarding that^^^... I hope I can really help out the Japanese import guys in Perth :D

great! i look forward to that day... hahaha

if the price is right i will be at your place every month or so...

can you line up some deep dish SSR or Watanabe or Work or any other old school rims in 15" and tyres to go with it....

i get a feeling im the only one in perth who likes these kind of rims...

i want my car to look like a kyusha or yanky style if you know what i mean....

Shodo: Yeah, I was thinking RB20 for a while, but unbalancing the car like that with a cast iron block doesn't sound right. If I have the cash, SR. If not... a CA18DET would be such an easy swap I could do it myself. I know what most people think of CA's, but I've always liked them so meh.

Mark: The R32 was sold to my younger brother. He wanted a new demo car for his shop as the old Mitsubishi Lancer wagon (Libero GT style) wasn't what he really wanted. I love that R32 but the situation was such that I couln't hang on to it any longer.

Totoro: "If the price is right"? We'll cross that bridge when we come to it ;) But in the meantime, I was originally going to deal in brand new gear only... the used parts business is barely worth doing these days... but I do have very good contacts for both new and used parts so I'm sure I can source anything at all. Just the larger stuff like body kits and exhausts etc will take alot longer and have a scary freight charge. If all goes well I'll be open for business out of my brothers shop TKO Tinting in Bentley (fingers crossed) as of the end of October.

Edit: Totoro PM me and we'll talk some more about the wheels/tyres

There's nothing wrong with CA's from what I read in the HPI build up of there car. made decent power without too much hassle :P

When you are changing engines more often than oil there is a problem :O

Can't you bring it in as a personal import?

ie. no GST, Import duties/ approval, etc...

You have to own a personal import for at least 12 months... I've only owned that Silvia for lees than 2 weeks. Besides, the paperwork for bringing a personal import in is twice as much, and evrything has to be translated into English... 15 year rule was much easier.

What model Enkeis are they Justin?  I've got the same on my DR30

They're called Enkei Racing S. They come in a wide variety of offsets and widths so the center spokes piece sometimes looks a little more flat/dished than others. Quite oldskool, I think they stopped being made around '93 or '94. They're not to be confused with Enkei Racing 'Peaks' which are basically the same design (2 piece wheel with little bolts all around the rim) but with only 5 spokes.

Enkei Racing S also came as a 1 piece wheel with black centers and red/blue anodized rims.

your headlights are worth more than the car!!! bonus!

So's the LSD!

So's the Tein HR's!

So's the Field fuel controller!

So's the AVS rim's!!!

I'd say all that gear together - plus the car - would make it's true market value to be about $2,000!!!

BAAAAAAH - GIN!!!

:lol:

omfg, $700!!!!.. I just started watching initial D on friday after hearing so much abour it, and the first thing that came to mind when I saw that s13 was the one in initial D. Great buy rezz. The r32 that I just brought in, it's rego sticker is the same, guess they both expire in febuary. Except I'm leaving the rego sticker there, looks cool IMO.... Hope I don't get done for it though... but anyway, congratulations :D

Thnks Rylan...

Btw I mentioned 'AVS rims' above there, but the pics don't show AVS rims so here are a couple of updated pix:

    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.
