Dom can't be enjoying it that much - it's already up for sale! I was half tempted I must say since my 34 has gone to heaven.....

No mate I do like it but i have been offered a JDM 2009 for $80k landed.

heres a vid in a non-competitive stage at Longford.

Your advert says you are going back the EMO lands though Dom! Your old car is also a JDM with no street rego though right?

Anyways - my R34 could be fixed. The chasis rails are still fine. But its a 7yo race car that I have been considering putting out to pastures for a little while now and this seems like the perfect excuse to do so.

Just saw a pic of that 400r after its hit in Unique cars. Does anyone know if its a write or just a massive repair job.

When I saw a shot of it before targa started I thought wow cool, hang on aren't they really rare and its going in targa tas!

Anyway looked like a great car, hopefully a fixer!

"We can rebuild Smaug — we have the technology" Where is your sense of romance Snowcone. Tweaks here and there, just need to find a panel beater that wants to work with you for some signage.

snowball's moved onto a younger maiden, that's the problem.

Oh ok,

I thought real deal as it was being referred to as 400R in a couple of magazines. Nice car either way.

I really need to go down next year as a spectator!

It's a pretty close replica... a lot of time, effort and funds went into producing it out of many genuine and custom produced parts, but this 'opportunity' allows it to be improved further.

Don't be fooled by the older (pre-993) RS and RSR 911s either!... but from a competition point of view, the replicas are going far far quicker than any of the genuine ones ever have ;)

      The Ls1 R33 Of Fury

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.

      Welcome Mark. Do you have a Skyline or are you looking to get one?
