best bet would be to ask Department of transport and regional services, as they would have a record of every cefiro imported.

otherwise if ur interested to see how many ceffy owners there are roughly on here, have a look at http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...ow+many+cefiros

try probably just under 200 NOW!

About 4 years ago when i bought mine from steve meggala there was 7 or 8 in victoria including mine and just under 100 in all of aus.

4 years on even though there have been more imported i havnt myself seen a significant difference, maybe about 50 or so more and mostly in qld.

A reason that theres so few is because they were only in production for the last 3 months of 1988 so only cars made in those 3 months are able to be imported under the new rules.

WTF!

Last I heard it was gradually going to turn into the 30 year rule.. Have noticed quite a few 88 ceffies pop up in Japan. Hopefully the rule is'nt extended for another year or so.

theres about 12 in vic, give or take 1 or 2 because ones been written off another sold to nsw, and because i cant be 100% sure if anymore recently have been brought in.

but aparently word going round is... is that the tomei rb24 featured in hpi is now living in vic not qld...

so watch out 4 a new monster, if he is able to get it registered.

As the mag states it was bought in as a freshly built car.. So it is probable that the pics were taken not long after the car arrived. Dan bought it as a drift car and thats what it was used for :(

would love to have a cruise, photo meet up with those 12 or so ceffys in VIC... very unlikely that we will ever get even say 10 of them in the one spot on at the same time.

Hey jarryd i wonder how many laurels there are in aus??

I'd say probably a bit less than 1/2 the number of Ceffy's... So would guess around 100 or so :

...not the only one with rb24 either... :angry:

My mates running either rb23/24... dunno yet :D GTR crank and rod are all we know atm. Will most likely be rebuit as rb24 soon anyways

heaps in qld but there isnt many in new south wales so id say max 50 per state which is heaps

50 is heaps? Good luck hey.

Id put money on there being more Porka turbos in each state, and they are not common cars.

Common compaired to a piazza turbo tho :D

      I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p

      Got just the wing painted and fitted up to the existing boot. Big visual change and about time after having a GTR wing sitting in the shed since 2018 Headed up to Mallala with a quick obligatory stop in at Boliver OTR Oil control mods seems to have worked. I checked the catch can after session 1 and there was a dribble of water/e85 with barely any oil in it. After session 2 and 3 there was almost nothing and I stopped checking after that. so either great success or catastrophic failure/block of the external breather The GTR wing made a noticeable difference in the 160-185km/h sweepers. It was a very hot day for the cars at over 33C but the previously done cooling upgrade/ducting/water sprayers meant I never saw over 60C intake, 105C water and 100C oil and temps would drop back down very quickly once I shut it down. AD09's are a decent tyre but certainly and expectedly a step down when compared the the CR-S/AR-1 I have had on the car for years of track days. The handling characteristics of my car which I often describe using the Tony Hawks Pro Skater balance mechanic where either side of the center is understeer/oversteer was much more pronounced with no "green/safe" zone in the middle. However, imo it steers well/easily during oversteer largely thanks to the custom ACOSTAL front end. Enjoy a loose lap POV with my mate giggling away as a passenger.   Group photo for Peer Pressure Racing made it back home and gave it a wash Overall a great success compared to my previous two track days where i cooked the Starlets motor and blew up the new diff in the R32

      AC not coming from top vents

      By Templim · Posted

      Ayooo, been a while mates. I have a s2 r33 gtst and air stopped coming out of all the top vents.   My car has always made an actuator gear noise when turning the car on but that's a different issue I think? Did searches and am at process of thinking it's an actuator or some type of motor? I see a few different actuators and don't know which one. Would be nice to know if it was the one that's under the steering wheel so the dash doesn't need to come out.

      Hi, just checking. Did you get this stuff made by Vspec Performance and at what price roughly? Looking into (sometime later) also getting such a intake kit, and Trust as well as HKS don't make a full set like this anymore.
