It depends, of course there are "no name" brands that are $200-300, but alot of the more expensive gear (than the no-name stuff) isn`t sold in Australia so it`s hard to guage if it`s a bargain.

I`m not full bottle on Car Audio, so in the next few weeks (if you guys are keen for Jap audio gear) it`ll be a very steep learning curve!!! But it`s all good... I enjoy it.

By "mob" do you mean mobile phone, Soulja?

Well, basically I`ll get anything, you name it. But bear in mind, there`ll be Japanese instructions, Japanese script on the controls (alot like your car really!) and no warranty.

yeah i ment mobile phone. i want to buy 2 mobile phones (one for me and one for my gf so we can sent each other pics ect). The one i was looking at is the Panasonic Gd-88, there r some more but i can't remember the names now.

Umm and for the mp3 player i was thinking something like an I-Pod or something that can stored alot of songs (somthing around 1gig or music) and for the mini-disc the sony netmd

Sounds badass. Rezz, can give us an example of what kind of price point comparison we'll be looking at for the non-mainstream japanese go fast bits?

I don`t really want to give too much away, but seeing as you asked, how does:

3-inch Cat-back stainless steel "Apex" style exhaust from Bori`s Factory for $550 plus freight sound? (R32/33/34)

Japanese phones don`t work on the Aussie network, Soulja. Believe me, I`ve tried!

About the MP3 player and the MD, I`ll have to look into it. I`ll keep you posted...

The Panasonic Gd-88 has

Network bands supported EGSM 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz (tri-band) . Which means it works in all countrys.

Most of the new phone have "Tir-band" so they work in most countries :) :) ,

Rezz if u could get me that phone i would give u a big kiss, as i dont see my gf that much on weekdays and getting photos of her would be sooo nice!:) :)

Thats all good, but someone has to setup the phone. Like key in all the local area network stuff etc. As it`s all in Kanji I doubt many people in Oz could do it?

If it was easy, EVERYBODY would have this...

Real-time video link phone calls, with picture in picture, so you can see who your talking to and they can see you.

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
