Mr R32 M-Spec

BA$%@#$%$& still haven't heard about my car. just emailed seaway to ask about it. its almost within my grasp and the delays just keep happening. mark

looks like an older HPI, I don't have that one though, what issue is it? mark

I'm going to cry now those are awesome pics guys did you have trouble finding your way round or you had a guide? I'm going at the end of the year. but its gonna be a loooonnnngg wait. anymore pics to help me out? mark

If you replace with the DEFI unit 3 din cluster, for a 32 GTR, are they electronic still? as I know a guy who had one put in and it didn't need the control unit like the bigger gauges I'm just looking at replacing the std GTR cluster with one of these DEFI ones. they look so cool!!! http://www.defi-shop.com/product/din/din_top.html mark

nah man. and the car got sold in may. it was like 200 or something for it. u in sydney? got it done at straight torque suspension in blacktown. but any good suspension place should be able to help you out mark

I know it wasn't in the equation, but why haven't you thought of the Evo VIII? or a VII for that fact, they are now legal I think I've read somewhere mark

for me, GTR! all the way, no comprimise, for me the subaru would be second best I'm just lucky enough to have bought an 89 R32 with a few bits and peices. but man If I had that much money R34 all the way see the review in one of the older SPEED magazines, R34 VS WRX STI VS EVO VII all with light mods. the AWD Evo and WRX held on better on the twisty's but hit a straight section and the blistering acceleration of the GTR killed them both. I have nothing against subaru, I love them. but have you considered an Evo man? that would be my next choice after the GTR. mark

I just got a call from seaway and the invoice. I'm paying it this arvo and hopefully should be released on monday mark

F%@$%&%@#$ can we start a petition about that man, sounds good. I didn't think middle eastern countries had much going for them in that respect, but hey I like that law man. Although it should go something to the tune of punishments in the order of offences first time, prison instantly, no good behavior shite here Second time, Beating from the person you stole from Third time, Appendiges being cut off mark

Great post ben and I have to say you guys at jspec have been really good, considering for a while there I managed to come up with between 1-5 new questions everyday and were really patient cheers mark

I'm not sure if this is the same sort of problem, but mine was weird but when I had the std suspension taken out of my 32 GTST it was leaning to the right. put new shocks and springs in, made the height adjustment and it still didn't help In the end the guy had to have a custom bracket made up to bring the right side up to the height as the left mark

1 dent and some paint could add to over 500 easily on a GTR. could you win if you threatened court action. cause I have pics of the car before it left japan, and if it turns up with scratches and dents, god help me I will strike someone down over it. I love my cars, but carelessness with them should be punished I say mark (mine is on the prince which is in brissie today. jspec said they handle everything to get it shipped to my door. no cost to me from memory)

I thought all tein coilovers were green? I know they will be firm, why I bought them. I had Koni Adjustables in my 32GTST but they were a bit soft(springs) I think mark

mine was a bit like that too and I had, filter,full 3" exhaust, FMIC,1.0Bar boost etc... I think its just the engines nature man take it out to the track for the day and have a chance to run around without breaking the law and get used to the car would be my advice. I did everytime I added some mods and it helped mark

Hey Guys & Gals I was just wondering if anyone has these in there car and/or knows what they feel like to drive on? I bought a set for the R(here soon:)) and was just wondering how they go They are advertised in the new speed for $3250AU. Lucky I picked mine up second hand from japan, look brand new. less then 1500km's travelled and only 1 month old cheers mark

I think the term coil over is used to describe the spring sitting over shock

Mine arrives in brisbane on monday(if no more delays) I AM ECSTATIC!!! Hey merlin I think I beat you man, I paid for mine in Mid May 2004, Arriving January 17 2204 what ship was yours on?

For the GTR you can get a pretty cool one from autosport at kirrawee It sits ontop of the engine and connects using all of the stock hoses to plumb back through making it Legal. I bought one for mine thats here next week. link below http://www.autosport.net.au/oilcatch.htm polishes up nicely with some autosol

Ok guys, reguarding the shipping on the prince, I have emailed Seaway this morning who handle the shipping details I got this response to questioning about the Prince's delays The vessel is delayed and is due Brisbane around 19 Jan. Unfortunately we have no control over weather conditions in the Pacific Ocean, nor Berth Congestion at both load and discharge Ports which have effected this vessel and many more DAMN!

F%$@#$&^*$^ SOB! damn ships, I was told it usually goes to brissie first, which means I would have had it last week. god damn KIWI's I got a phone call from Seaway 2 days ago saying it was coming in on the 15th, so I wonder why the move in schedule again, they having a holiday in NZ or something mark

My opinion would be don't bother about the RB25DET Just work on the RB20DET. I was happy with my GTST, till I went to the circuit, didn't feel fast enough or handle like I wanted. I was lapped by GTIRs for gods sake (JOKES ) my mates Evo IV made me feel like I was standing still with foot flat. here are the mods I had on my last car, I sold to some guy I haven't seen since (worries me:( ): Engine Performance 105, 000KM's.

I had Seaway call me yesterday afternoon (my dad rang me and said "someone from SeaWorld just called about your coming in, I thought that was a resort?") They said the ship will arrive on saturday and who was my customs agent, I just told them to see Gareth/Ben at jspec as they are handling it cheers mark

if I thought it would work it would be worth while but you know that theives have more rights then the victims these days and they could turn around and sue you

good luck with the recovery man. I'll keep and eye out in west sydney area, for the car or parts for sale mark

I used jspec and were quite happy with the service, they're all great guys down there I got a 32GTR through them which should be here next week. Although depending on what your after, I have noticed there are alot of cars for sale at good prices. I know I felt ripped when I sold my R32 GTST in may, the guy got a good deal for what I had spent. Maybe it would be easier to just purchase one here already? cheers mark
