Well here a just a few pics of the Prince GT's at Beechworth and Winton for their 40th Anniversary Celebrations. I was fortunate enough to be here for this weekend, and it was a great weekend, if a bit chilly. Noel Sinclair organised this event, and it was fantastic. Well done Noel. I have lot's more pics of these classic rare pieces of Japanese racing history, so if anyone wants some more, let me know.

Awesome work Cazz!!!

 

You should upload all the pics to the gallery!! I can make a new album for them if you want?

Can I send you a CD with all the pics on, I think it would be great to have these pics in a gallery. If you can email your addy to me carolyn@keyboarddata.com.au, I will get them to you on CD asap. I could give them to Andrew at the next NDSOC meeting too, if that was better.

Hi Cazz/ I also was there with one of my cars The White KPGC110 2 door. You mention the L28Turbo in the 1965 Prince(at least that is the only turbo that was there) Well for a start it is NOT an L28 but a factory L20 Turbo. I know I built it and sold it to Malcolm Yes it goes like the clappers.

Sorry to see the poor results as displayed in the various magazines covering the meet. I have three discs of photo's from that weekend. Was well done BUT.

Regards

and just a couple more.  Check out the L28 turbo in the first shot in the post above!!!!

    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit.

    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
