How's this p plate friendly? I thought NSW said NO turbos at all...

Going to agree with him, i doubt any states are left without new p plater laws. There is no more power to weight either... well at least for Victoria i am sure. We have no modification of any sort, i was close to purchasing a series 2 RX7 with a 13b and had to make 100% sure that it wasn't considered as a modification.

People who got their license prior to July 2008 are exempt from the new driving laws (no turbos) in Victoria.

or was it July 2007?

Anyway I fall under that category and must not exceed a power-to-weight limit of I think 125kw/tonne.

Back again, i know :P.

I've been a bit reluctant to sell it but now i think I've done what i need to do with this little beast, it now has an after market SS manifold to accommodate a T25 turbo, an Evo VI cooler, custom piping, dump pipe.

All works was carry out by myself (with love :bunny:) beside from the cooler piping and new dump. This little beast is now so much fun with just 6psi, it kept up with an Evo VII to my suprise. I've got an Safc II which is yet to be fit, then tune with 13psi.

New oil (Motul), sparkies......new Air con again with receipt (the work shop that did my zorst fked up my air-con).

$6.5K with new Rego or $6 without, current rego till the end of this month. Speedo reads close to 200K.

Again, would like to trade for Stag, 4doors 34/33, Dual Cab Diesel Hilux......or Aristo or even 1jz Cressida, i want to work on a new Project.

    • Update time!  The JZX110 had some maintenance needing to be done, so a lot of the seals with replaced to fix some oil leaks. Also used this opportunity to whack on a front mount that I'd bought some time ago.  I also finally got the rear lip painted and fitted.  I then got the exhaust done. It's just a catback for now. Custom made 3" stainless with a turn down. I could have a tip coming out, but it will require cutting the rear lip and possibly the bumper itself. So far I do like and it's made the car a little more zippy.  Close out with some nice pictures of the cars and a sneak peek of what's next. 
    • Once you learn it all, you find you do the job once. But this is the best way to learn, as you won't forget the lessons
    • Edit: It's now known as "R Performance" and is still in operation.
    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
