can't answer your question but.......

both put together i'd still choose the one in your sig anyday, everyday. :)

yeah thats a very special "Skyfrine" :yes:

haha those 4 red cooking stoves at the back mean = very f**king fast in either way :D

See the stoves... beware!! hah

So you cant drive it on the road?

Pretty sure I read in HPI that it's not registered but it could be if they wanted it too. They would only have to raise the ride height a bit. The car still has climate control and all that shit so it could compete in the super stock class thing at Tskuba.

I'm not sure. Anyone know if its street registered? Either way I'm very sure the Mine's R34 Demo Car sets the benchmark when it comes to R34s on the track (Fatest tsukuba time of 57.7?). The Z tune is a few seconds off but I dont remember the figures of the top of my head.

Z is around 300 K right? Mines is half that correct me if Im wrong...

Think the Mine's is about 200k in Japan, and the Z-Tune was 170k US

But yeah, after speaking to Matt, who drove the Z-tune from Sydney to Melbourne, he said it was pretty comfortable, and absorbed bumps etc really well. I doubt the Mine's would be so forgiving.

The Suzuki Mightyboy wins hands down. The Daewoo Matiz just can't keep up with it's blend of style, practicality and sheer horsepower.

What were we talking about again?

Well I've seen the Z tune in the flesh, actually touched it, and it's something to behold. Seeing it fly around Oran Park was something else.

Very impressive car.

I can't comment on the Mines car cause I've only seen it in DVD's. But damn it's impressive in those dvd's.

I think I'd take a Mines R34 GTR though. Just cause.. :ninja:

    • Is rebuilding it even a thing? Where would the shop find parts for it? I looked at some off these local online stores for my r34 and suprisingly they had brand new aftetmarket ones for $600-800 I think. I guess r32 might be a bit tougher.
    • I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..
    • They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to move wrt the other.
    • I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.
    • Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.
