From Paul's email:

Hi to all

We have finally had our R34 inspection and all went well. In fact the

inspector said that it is the best inspection he had done (ie the

least problems with evidence & vehicle) in 2 years since the RAWS

system started and we should give ourselves a pat on the back. This

means that within 2 to 4 weeks we will be able to import and comply

R34 2 door & 4 door, turbo and non turbos and GT-R's. Please reply to

this email if you are interested in importing an R34 yourself and I

can send some coming up at auction or with our suppliers in Japan.

Regards

Paul Hewitt

I, and many others on SAU have used Paul for 32s and 33s.

His site is http://www.perthcars.com

He's a great guy and I recommend him for anyone searching for a Skyline.

yeah, Paul was a big help when I was looking. I was after a 95 gts-t, and he had a nice stock black one there, and because it was a yard was asking 21k before 2005. When the year changed, he dropped the price by 1k but I had already offered what I felt was a fair price for it ($18k) & he couldn't sell it for that, but he had no problems with me having a test drive, was very helpful.

But now I am getting an even better one imported for just under 17k, and it looks awesome. That has an a/m exhaust, adj. suspension, kickass rims & a couple of other little mods that will save me $$$$ too. Seen it on Monday, and will have it within 2 weeks. :wassup: And I found out the a/m steering wheel is worth $400 too, insane.

Yeah good bloke!! Got my R33 4dr from Paul, felt real comfortable with the deal compared to other places! Did a deal with an exhaust and rims, highly recommended!!

(this post took me 10min to type as I've had quite a few shots and am felling real light headed!!)

Dryncing mayks u mipsel wirds so t taks longer to tipe.

Yeah, he was very helpful & if anyone is thinking of going through him it is recommended!!!!! If I am not mistaken the exhaust was cat-back & the rims 17"?????? I think it was both for 2k extra (should less if you haggle with him).

Yeah is a pretty good exhaust and awesome looking rims (I think anyway), Nah I got it for half that price! Howd did you know what I got? BTW what's with the Everton shield?? Just jokes :rofl:

I was interested in buying from there a while ago, and he said that if I wanted an exhaust & rims then we could sort out a deal. I think they would take the standard ones back to drop the price too. Didn't know what price though, just guessed but if it's around a grand then it sounds good to me.

Don't knock The Everton, we have Timmy the Blue Kangaroo. :wassup:

I got my R32 complied by them, top work, so fast too...

ossie_21 : think I was there that day you test drove the black R33. Did you have some nice car you came in? Like a bombed Prelude or something...

You held me up cause Paul was busy with you :( he he

Yeah, I took the black 33 for a spin. Earlier I had driven the white one he was selling at the same time, but it wasn't as responsive as the black one, which I was interested in. The car that I will have in a couple of weeks (burgundy 33) is even better with that, I don't think it understands that turbo's have lag. :headbang:

And it wasn't me with the Prelude though.

    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
    • The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.
    • Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
    • Thanks Paul I reached out to Autotainment but they no longer work on JDM cars as the guy who used to do the work moved on and is no longer doing that kind of work. I am talking with Level Up Audio though.
