Sounds like a good time! Its almost worth looking into exporting old honda city turbo 1's to the US. Could be quite a good profit earner lol. Mmmm the thought had crossed my mined, not sure how hard it would be to export to the US,but i did see a stock R34 skyline (RHD) in the airport carpark the d...

Hi all , Colza is correct in saying that chopping your springs is illegal!

Yes hadnt thought about getting the flywheel bolts out, but this could be a problem for a future owner! A few weeks ago i put a 5 speed box into an old pro T and noted it had the same problem and one of those exedy clutch plates fitted! I didnt need to do any grinding as someone had been there befor...
