just to digress once more (though a separate thread is a good idea) - in response to this comment: "all the domestic crap and hondas will get owned so badly." - there are some seriously fast vehicles (domestic crap) in the north american market - things that make our top HSVs look like puppies :)

I'm really interested in the underground scene that japan has with their cars and touge. Its just quite amazing how they drive at breakneck speeds on roads in the hills where one wrong move will kill you, or seriously fubar your car.

Is canada like america where the ratio of riced hondas to real quick ones is like 100:1? Or are canadians smarter than their american counterparts :)

I never realised how lucky we are in australia untill i saw (threw internet of course) all the rice in america, im hoping it never gest that bad here though

StraightSix, you didn't ramble... it's all good.

In fact, could you start another thread about Canada (in the Japan section)? We really should stop hijacking this thread...

Tell you what, we have our annual big do (the "World of Wheels") in a bit less than a month from now - it's a big indoor car show - I'll post a huge pic thread then, so you can see what's happening, what people are into, and so on - a picture is worth etc. :D

Cheers

J

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff
