Its me thats fat, not the helmet dude! Hahaha :laugh:

Yeah Commo drivers :spank:

The 34 is pretty big inside, i guess i never thought about the extra space for a helmet though.... I well, maybe i can drive commo spec like Benji and lay the seat back.... :P

I had bride lowered seat rails connected to an amazing Recaro but had to give it up too pay bills :dry:

And who you calling Raymond punk? :domokun: lol

Dude I thought your name was Raymond. Just realised it's actually Matt haha. I was reading the top line of the location part of your info thing without realising

And yeah, I do recline the commodore seat back and on its lowest setting for the "cant see over the dash" look. I've even started using words like "Brah" and "Aye".

When used in a sentence; "Yeah brah commy looks mad but im gonna dump it on its guts soon ayeee".

Doesn't work with RB stuff and Skylines

Onlly parts that can be overnighted from Japan are "2JZee no shiiiiit " parts

I wish I was able to afford a Toyota Supra RZ...the 2jz engine is an amazing feat of engineering. Supra is the ultimate highway/track monster.

Benji,

you need to put 20's on the front and stocks on the back to be a true bogan.

An don't forget the chev badge and to get a southern cross tatoo while your at it.

    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
    • As per title.. has anyone used so far? Keen to hear results, comparisons. In the market for a new mani for my new turbo. Any issues cracking?
    • Re read everything that has been written about this in this thread.. Let us know if you're still confused.
    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
