Spotted a gunmetal R32 GTR on King St in Newtown a bit before 1pm this afternoon. Had matching gunmetal rims with polished outer. Asian guy driving, I think. Can't remember the plates though. :P

Where abouts in Carlingford Court and did it have blue number plates?

Hahaha, it was in the parking lot outside where the front entrance is (near the now-closed Starbucks). Had normal plates, I *think* it was BRZ39P or similar.

Nope, it wasn't you, Drew - I would have recognised your car and come to say hello, the driver was looking for parking when I was on my way back to the Stagea.

I spotted an R34 GTR Z-Tune this morning....such an amazing car...shits on most skylines in aust

i would post pics but the owner doesnt want them to be posted

lol. if it is *the* genuine z tune in Aus it is unmodified externally and there are heaps of pics of it and other cars that look identical overseas.

if it is one of the couple of replicas getting around - why would you make your car look like a z tune and then not want people to see it?

Pretty sure it was a real Z-Tune as it was outside Powerplay Imports with the red plates "ZTUNED"

Spotted a silver R33 in the parking lot of where the P&O cruises depart off Hickson Road at Wharf 8, Darling Harbour.

Went to pick up my sister today, and she said the same car was there again. Rego was DRE33A.

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
