Hey guys, Been a long time since I owned anything from japan 14 or years or so. I worked for an importer back in the day and let me tell you a lot has changed!

I not long bought myself a 30 year old boat from Tas, from a mate down there, and had it shipped up here to NSW.
It needs a bit of work but it's got a really good built engine with less than 500km on it. I've started cleaning it up and giving it some much deserved love and it's looking a million times better than it did when I picked it up.
Tomorrow it goes in for a new Haltech 2500 elite, a good look over, and then a tune. Fingers crossed for a good result!

Look forward to meeting you guys on a cruise sometime soon!

Cheers

Grassy

      There really needs to be an ODBII item that can play intake noise through speakers, synchronized with your current RPM and TPS%.

      So, we now have a straight and clean boot lid inbound and the car goes in for paint, again, on Wednesday, and will be ready on Friday, all ready to get cams and stuff on Monday  And by straight and clean.....I mean a brand new OEM one that cost..... $1300....😪 Sadly there's no clean undamaged used soft top version available, plenty for the power retractable hard top versions though, which is arse and makes Mark have the sads I could have waited longer, until a NC sort top boot lid eventually turned up, but I'm sick of waiting and said fark it and made it rain cash, meh In other naturally aspirated news, one of the guys at work brought in his old Corola which had a 4AGE in it, really nice clean car with lots of mods, including ITB's, man that things induction noise sounds sick with all of the dorts that makes you smile......maybe the NC needs ITB's, yeah, basically for the noise they make, but they're pretty expensive, but, they sound so damn good I may bring this up when I drop the car up on Monday, and by may, I mean I will🤣🤑🤪🤣
