I don't really know what the import car cruising scene is like around Mackay as it has been like 3yrs since I have owned a decant street car. I seem to be working on everyone else's car besides my own + I'd rather sit in the shed and enjoy a few coldies with my mates then being out on a Thursday night getting hassled by the cops.

There was a mint blue r34 gtr for sale on a page I like on fb .... Had mods and all I will see if I can find it

Cool, thanks. Seeing way to many bad examples already in Australia, dodgy dealers buying Grade R cars and getting them illegally complied, wound back etc.

I have been looking directly in Japan.

Saw a car go for $60k landed and complied, and then show up on carsales 2 months later for $100k.

f**ken rip off assholes.

Yeah I'm importing my next GTR as well, when the old man imported the R32 N1 GTR years ago it was immaculate, my R34 GTT that I imported was like brand new and Richard JZA80 Supra was imported like brand new and still is the cleanest I ever seen. My R33 GTR I purchased from the Gold coast and wasn't in the best shape but it was my trasher, it had a hard life.

Roads in Japan are perfection not like our f**ked roads over here so the are in much better condition plus there country is tiny and they don't rack up as many km's. Import all the way.

Lol the fact it's got a single is one of the reasons I like it haha each to there own however .... Not sure of ks but with mods like that I'm not sure it really a issue, thats in my opinion of course best contact owner and ask the questions and ask if he has original auction report and import certificate !

    • With my pre/power I use a remote trigger cable(3.5mm jack each end). I turn tv on, it turns both on via ARC. Or, just the pre with the remote or its streaming software, turns on both. Not that difficult at all. Obviously,  you would also want to actually update/upgrade over other factors in your life(bills, family, other hobbies, etc)
    • Yeah, nightfall was very "meh". And I'm crap at pvp, so feels like everyone has cheats(it's just my lack of skill). Final shape has been pretty good. New raid and dungeon are pretty good. If you want to give it a go, probably wait until it's on sale. But, as usual, most of it feels very familiar. 
    • This morning was Kingswood's Microscopic Wars. It is the album's 10 year anniversary this year and we went to see them play the whole album as a special show a couple of months back. Was pretty spectacular.
    • Yeah I would like to try and get a ADM car to reduce issues with insurance. I've decided if I end up getting this car I will set it up to be a sleeper build, leave it looking stock/dad spec on the outside I wonder if you can just drop in the 400r/Red/Z ECU or better still use a flashing tool to copy the map off one. Backup the factory map and then flash the 400hp cars onto the 300hp cars ECU?
    • Nah, yeah, nah. Speakers have a nominal impedance of 8 ohm that looks more like 6.4 ohm when measured. The receiver's amplifiers (all channels) are all rated to 6 ohm (I think, it's been a long time since I cared). The real problem is that many modern class D amps have aggressive protection circuitry that cuts off the fun if they think too much current is being drawn. And with my speakers having series crossovers, as opposed to more typical parallel crossovers, and big TL enclosures, they can certainly dip down to lower impedances at some frequencies and that easily triggers the protection. Pioneer receivers are somewhat famous for it, but even Denon, Onkyo, et al, all have many complaints against them across various models. It only does it when listening to music at high levels. You have to be putting your ears at risk to do it. But sometimes I want to do that. If I was serious about using it as a listening room I'd simply upgrade the amp for the front pair to a nice Rotel or something, and just use the receiver for signal handling and processing - although that would be a bit of a pain in the arse too. Have to switch on more shit, pre-amp volume vs main amp volume, etc etc.
