Japan residents post up pics of your 'line! ... or sundry vehicle ;)


Recommended Posts

I took these pics this morning... I was very impressed with the work done by JAM Body Service (I'll post up what I had done in the Photo Diary) and was wondering, could the Japan residents post up pics of their cars?

(if it ain't got a Jap number plate, don't post it! :D)

...mine...

Is that a Porsche turbo badge, rezz? :D
heh-hahaha! badteeth.gif You noticed...

... I'm not responsible for that, I've since tried to pry said badge off to no avail...

Why is it that most Japanese cars have extremely dark tint on the back windows and rear screen but light in the front? The cima which i imported is like this as well.

it's illegal to have dark tints on the front windscreen or the front windows. AFAIK there are no restrictions on the rear windows, so most cars come with dark tints from the factory.

Paint is real smick...picked her up with Justin on Saturday night.

on Mt Rokko before typhoon 16 arrived..

wow love that picture, nice lighting, like ur evo too, so clean. here's a pic of my bnr32 and my friends bnr32 with, look at that company, familiar? hehe

With the addition of another son to my family, I was tempted to sell the Skyline and get a Stagea. After much deliberation, I opted to keep the car and get a modded Accord Wagon as a family car...

Dave, love that shape accord mate...good choice.

also your plates look a little dirty on the skyline.

Yukio, thanks mate your GT-R looks smick with those nice wheels...LOL about the shop :mad:

Justin has Kobe plates, the only plates people want over here :)

Amaru, thanks :)

Thanks...the wheels were an absolute bargain from Upgarage, though ideally I would have liked white/silver LM-GT4's or maybe TE-37's...

The Accord is running on 17inch Rays Versus and a complete Tein suspension kit - and despite being very low the ride is surprisingly smooth.

You all have such sweet sweet cars! what's it cost to get one of these and keep it running/yr? I'm looking at moving to Japan a short while after I finish my Engineering Degree at uni - and of course I'd be interested in picking up a nice car (R34 GT-R/Evo VI-VIII/S15/etc)... so long as I can afford everything else :mad:

    • You see R34 GTRs listed for 200-300k are they really selling for these prices? Kinda seems like the same ones listed all the time. Even with R33 GTSTs looking at gumtree. You have an auto with a bitsa interior for 35k. Another one needs an engine rebuild and asking 24k. And then you have a stock in better than average condition for 45k. Nobody is ever going to pay these prices.
    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
    • Shall we... wake you up when September ends?
