based ont eh rover 3.5L v8..360kw

but if sunbeams came with USA v8's and ddesigned to fit a 427 anyhow.. why not?

lol @ rover V8.

yeah thats what im talking about. but less cobra, more clean/subtle.

will look into 427.

so far my only thoughts are: bigg-ish V8. manual. EFI w/ ecu. maybe ITBs.

Yeahhh m8888 V8's!

Fark the JDM's

Saw this on friends facebook post. Apparently the admins drive ADM Jap cars

*Note not a member of the club, there seems to be a billion different facebook groups

So if I understand his English correctly...they're banning Evos GTRs Stageas GTIRs etc. from their club?

Guy sounds like a professional, from a professional car club.

Nissan make ADM cars? I thought they were all imported from Japan... Or perhaps Korea... Or possibly China.

Anyway, the Stagea isn't gay enough to participate in Facebook groups, or anything that has JDM in the name.

corvette Convertible sounds like would work perfect.

yes you can actually get a Aust made skyline:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_industry_in_Australia#Nissan_Australia

but ADM does mean Australia domestic Market, so cars made for sale by a manufacturer sold direct in that area, no specifications on where they were build.

thus there ADM and JDM S15's both build and brought in from japan just some grey import and some ADM as sold by nissan.

I could have just bought a V6 statesman for $3k. But I got the Gloria instead. Becoz it's awesome.

Could just get a sunbeam tiger fully restored for $50k+ but I would rather rat the duck out of an alpine and put a big V8 in it

"The lower price [iron Ore] means service industries such as tourism and education have overtaken iron ore as Australia's biggest export earning sectors for the first time since explosive growth in China's steel industry a decade ago ignited a mining boom, according to the Reserve Bank of Australia.

Demand for iron ore is set to soften even more after China recently set its lowest target for economic growth in 15 years.

Iron ore miners have been counting on a drop in output from outdated and inefficient Chinese mines to help toughen a soft market but this month acknowledged that process, too, is slowing"

    • Fuel tank is out. Looks pretty bloody good under (ie above) the fuel tank.  Amazing how good the factory e-coat holds up in the hidden areas.  No where near as much body deadener to get rid of as the front but still not looking forward to it!  Shit of a job.  I'm thinking I might grab a needle scaler and give that a go before I attack it with the angle grinder and wire wheel which is how I did the front 2/3's of the car.  Feels good to be working on the car again but who knows how long it will last!  Hopefully I can get it further forward than where it was prior to this last block of work when I decided to go back 10 steps further down the rabbit hole from where i already was! The problem is, I'm realising how hard it will be to repair and paint the bumpers, which cannot be put back on the car, and have a good paint match. There are also areas where it would be VERY hard to hide the new paint where it transitions from old paint. Like this- There is only one way to do that perfectly and I really dont want to have to do what that means I would have to do... 🤦‍♂️
    • Pretty sure the factory assembly doesn't have any gasket at all, just RTV.
    • I will get a couple cans for sure thanks, I do have 2lt fish oil to spray around the car already.
    • Thought I’d post pics of the packages for those interested. The premium package is #16. Remote start, security with tilt sensor and remote and backup battery, auto fold mirrors and door illumination.    Can post up pics of all the factory options and images from the factory options brochure if people are interested. I have all the dealer books etc for all rv37 models.
