Wow, it’s 3 litres big Contents: 1 Tank 2 Steel bracket (black) 3 M6X20 Bolt 1 4 M5X15 Bolt 1 5 Braided hose 0.9m 1 6 Hose clamp (big) 1 7 Hose clamp (small) 1 8 Aluminium 16mm stopper 1 9 Cap 1 10 Tie clip 1 11 Aluminium joint (not needed when using on GTR. GTS only) If your using a battery bigger than 38B19R then the kit won’t fit. Step 1: (looking at figure 1) Put the tank in front of the battery. Use the battery bracket (and bolt) to fasten one side of the tank. The under side of the upper support of the front fender and the supplied bracket also go together here somehow and attach to the tank. If it’s a tight fit you may have to move the battery back a bit. Step 2. (Figure 2) Remove hose ‘A’ in the figure (intake pipe) and put in the stopper, fastening it with the tie clip. Then put the hose back on as it was before. (The GTS is different, but that ain’t gonna bother you hey) Step 3: (figure 2) Remove hose ‘B’, and put the cap on the pipe on the intake manifold and fasten it with the small hose clamp. The B hose is not used. (Again, GTS is different) Step 4: Put the big hose clamps on the braided hose and then attach one end to the blowby pipe on the tappet cover and the other to the catch tank and your done.

Hotels don't have to be that expensive. Have a look on the net for cheapies as they are out there. If not, 10 nights in love hotels will only set you back 700oddbux for the two of you. Travel is the most expensive thing here, work out where you want to go and have a look at buying the JR pass (look on the JR website) if it's going to be the cheapest option. The other place you didn't mention that tourists often head to is Kyoto, a nice place with enough temples to make you sick of them. Tokyo and Hiroshima are obviously two must sees. Eating is probably cheaper than Australia. Ramen, curry, gyudon, sushi and convenience stores and their onigiri and bento are awesome and cheap. Do some research first and ask specific questions later. You'll get more help that way.

Everything that is in the ad has been translated mate apart from you won't get a warranty with it.

I think it says the rear seats and interior have been reupholstered. Also it has been to Autosalon/Automesse but there are just no accurate records. It also says that unless you go and look at it, they won't sell to you.

Sorry about the late reply!! No one seems to be interested in evos (not surprising on a skyline forum) so I hadn't checked thread for a while. As I live in Japan I am not interested in a swap, sorry. The most recent photos are the bottom two rows of photos on the 1st page, and the the far right pic on the third from bottom row. They were taken just after the car came back from having the roof repaired, late last month. Send me a PM with your email address and I'll send some more information. -
Kabukicho. Plenty of love hotels around to consummate things afterwards. Perfect

Adjusting Dampners On Hks Coilovers?
dodgybrooks replied to Spook33's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
I had HKS Hyper-D's in my car for a day (shock absorbers, ha. Remove the absorb part and you get what they really are, shockers) and the fronts were adjusted by a twisty knob thing on the bottom of the shock and the rears by a similar looking twisty knob thing sticking up through the top mount. -
The Omori factory? Omorikaigan station on the Keikyu line, which goes through Shinagawa. Head out of the station and go North East. It's across the road from the horse race course. www.nismo.co.jp

Japanese Coilovers
dodgybrooks replied to dodgybrooks's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Like I said, it's a box. 140,000km red head and it had no front bumper and the left front fender needed replacing due to an accident, and it had no shaken (road tax). It was left at the workshop that I go to, and I was after a drift pig so they gave it to me and told me to fix it myself. I also got a front pipe, R200 diff, tension rods and a boost gauge they had lying around to go with the cat back and exhaust manifold that were already on it. Should be some fun. Pick it up this week when the shaken is done. But hows about those springs? 8 and 6 too hard? Anyone running something like this on a 180? Advice?? -
If you get done it's harsh, but there are hardly any cops out and about, the fixed speed cameras are turned off more than half of time and paddy cars can't get you for doing anything unless they have their flashy red lights turned on (seriously they drive around with them turned on, no sound just the lights. Pretty disconcerting the first time you see it). So to get done is pretty unlucky. Although it's probably a different story in the cities around the drift spots. They just don't seem to care much about us country kids. 50万円would have bought some nice bits for the s14, a trip home and still have plenty left for some soapland/health time. I feel for you Laurence.

Japanese Coilovers
dodgybrooks replied to dodgybrooks's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Yea comparing spring rates on totally different cars isn't going to prove anything, sorry m(__)m The springs that come with the GReddy kit are 8f and 6r. Is anyone running similar spring rates in a 180/S13? Are they going to be too hard? -
Japanese Coilovers
dodgybrooks replied to dodgybrooks's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
←I am living, and shopping in Japan. Which also means the whiteline group buy is not going to happen. I've just sent off an email to confirm the price of the GReddy's, but they should be a fair bit cheaper than Australia. One reason is the market here, there are more brands of coilovers than you could ever test in one year. It's insane!! I'm no sus pro, but is 5kg front and 4 rear a bit low?? The average rates sold with the kits are 7/8 front and 5/6 rear. I had Teins in my Evo and they were 6f and 5r and were definitely not too hard. Not having wife/kids to hurt my ears might mean I'm am a little more accepting of a firmer ride. -
My Japanese is not great but I translated it as 'Bank error in your favour, collect 50万円'

I'm looking at coilovers for my 180 and I don't have the cash (and the car is a box anyway) to stretch to euro brands. The GReddy units, as discussed in the R34 poll thread, are looking alright at $1,150, $650 cheaper than the Tein Mono Flex (used to be RA). I'd love to hear some feedback on both of these if people are using them or know anything about them, as well as the equivalents from HKS (Hypermax 2(now 3),$1,500 and D',$1,950) and Cusco (Zero-2R,$1,900). I've heard the you get what you pay for rule but if someone can't convince me that they are crap, then I might end up getting a set.

Yea he said that he doesn't have any pics of the part that moves the wing 4cm down from the back, so he sent a pic of the 5cm up version.

Not a marriage proposal, just asking for pictures of his wife from directly behind.... ha As you scroll down the page, there are three horizontal bars of yellow, on the third one there are three tabs, click the right tab(should say 出品者への質問(0)) and from there I don't know coz I can't ask questions coz I don't have an account on which I can buy things.

At over 350bux they are some expensive bits of carbon fibre. Put this in the questions section with your mail address. はじめまして。車の真後ろから写真を(your mail address here)に送っていただけますでしょうか。よろしくお願いします There is only 12 hours left on the auction so he might no see it/have time to take shots before it finishes
