Photo Diary Comeback Special

Recommended Posts

The S13 Silvia I brought back from Japan was a little unique in that I scored a pristine (and I mean immaculate in all it's uncrashed glory) 1988 Q's 5MT for the huge sum of A$700...

lol you #$*!ing bastard it took me bloody months too find a car exactly like that in Japan and have it shipped over but least it was the first of the 2L K's, rest where ho-hum Q's and CA's at the time and original f**kmebabyfactory black. It was owned by a hairdresser, smelled like Taft hairspray which took a month to get out and the stupid bint had dropped nailpolish over the passengers seat, but apparently not driven in anger much, sexual frustration maybe but never anger.

Do like your photos though, pity the first couple of pages are bandwidth exceeded one though ;)

Damn, some awesomeness in there.

What is the car with the Mk2 golf front, is it a Polo? 

I'm in love with the C110. 😍

Some cool grafts, like the Lancia Jimny (?).

Yes that's a VW Polo. The whole build inside and out was very well done I thought, in that Euro street style.
The C110 drew a crowd lol, one girl in earshot kept repeating "Hora! Smaaafu! Smaaafu!" 😄
Yep the Jimny has a Lancia Delta Integrale-like kit on it by Damd. They also made a Jimny kit based on the Renault 5 Turbo (which wasn't there). Speaking of little 4WD's the white one is a 2008 Nissan Kicks modified by Nissan Automobile College:

Why TF would anyone paint up an R35 GTR as a f**king Hyundai?

It looks more grey than blue in daylight. I guess the bright lights they had in the Nissan booth made my phone camera make it look like Hyundai baby blue...

But colour aside, Hyundai N was launched in 2017 and they copied the Nismo corporate black aero parts with red accent from the 2014 GT-R Nismo

1.80 yen for a slice of pizza... or is it supposed to be 180 yen??

Unfortunately it was the latter 😢
Didn't try it because we'd just left a Kobe beef restaurant and had no intention of going for a slice of pizza. 2 Bros Pizza at Hankyu Sannomiya station: https://g.co/kgs/HrVzGV8

    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
