I've actually got a black one for sale in Japan, heslo :D About $25K or thereabouts.

That was my wife you saw, but I've sold the Chaser. One of my customers lives very near my place that owns a Chaser (with very obvious plates, if you saw them). My Chaser had [JZX-100] on the plates.

Might've been me, did it have gold rims? If so, that was me! :( Didn't see anyone gawking at me this morning, was half asleep the whole drive into work.... damn late nights! :(

sadly, nope .

picked the car up from mechanics , getting new bottom end next week for it and rebuilding it all

Mitch, did you by any chance drop in to see James at Nisspeed a few days ago (might have been late last week, or earlier this week - can't recall) asking for a quote on a RB26 rebuild? I could be way off, but your engine issues sound very similar to someone I saw at the workshop.

Thought that was you. Yep, saw the black and white R33's.

James and I are mates, I was chatting with him when you walked through the door (I was one of the guys in uniform - not the blonde one). James is flat-out at the moment, so he would have struggled to fit you in :(

I guess this loosely fits the spotted thread - I spotted the person rather than his car :(

Didn't notice the rims but your car looks exactly the same from the front (would have been between 8:30-9am, along that road that heads north/south with the median strip - the one with the bowling place

Spotted Chef in the 34 GTR today at lunch time turning off Henley Beach road behind a Classic Adelaide Commodore?

The Commodore was loud as all f*ck - full cage and everything.

If it wasn't chef, there's another White 34 GTR V-Spec etc going around with a Black bonnet!

      Yes, but no. You need to keep the mating surfaces bare (ie the flat faces where the caliper and upright pads touch the dogbone) and also the internal threads will remain bare (unless there are no internal threads - do they use nuts on all the bolts?). So you can slow down obvious external corrosion, but not all of it. Anodising would be required to provide decent protection to the alloy, but I'm not actually sure if you should anodise something that is all about the strength. Anodising does reduce strength significantly. Like, up to 50% on some alloys for high thickness coating.

      Thanks   does painting on aluminium work or stop them from corroding?

      'Sgot nothing to do with them being Japanese. The climate in the north of Japan has similarities to the UK - the cars are made in the knowledge that they have snow and salt, and they rot there. Cars made in the US rot like buggery in the US. British cars have always rotted regardless of the weather. They will rot indoors in a climate controlled bubble! The brackets are not unsafe yet, but they will get that way. They may well corrode where the bolt threads are in contact and the bolts could just jump out without warning.

      So unsafe would you say now?   little bit of has come off, guess road salt is a nightmare for Japanese car. Mx5 here have a well known issue or rotting

      Dissimilar metal corrosion. Aluminium is less noble than steel/iron, and will corrode preferentially when in contact with it and a conductive solution (ie, wet road salt). Tends to suggest that those brackets should be made in steel for a shitty climate like the UK.
