The models were found in Chiba Parco at a hobby shop on the 7th floor. I'll be heading back there in about two weeks or so, so I'll take some photos and get some more information about the availability of them and other Starion goods then. I've also met an importer who sends Motorbikes back to NZ, s...

Racing and Drifting DVDs in Japan?

So here I am...In Japan for about a month now and I have not found one motoring DVD here yet. I've looked in sooooooo many stores, it's not funny. Any ideas from those of you who have or are still living here? Oh yeah, and I'm living near Tokyo by the way. I've also found some killer Starion die-cas...

OK. Checked the LSD today. It is a 3.545 LSD (sticker on it and everything!).

I'm leaving the country this coming Wednesday and would like to see the wreck sold before then if not both cars.

Offers please, but not not for parts. Cars are to be sold whole and as is (no RWC or Reg.).

OK. I haven't had time yet, but a mate and I will be using his hoist this Friday to check the LSD and I'll give her some fresh oil and a clean-up, etc. while I'm at it. I'll see if I can get an RWC too.

Looking to sell her and the wreck this weekend or early next week before I head off to Japan.

No probs guys. Strangely enough, I never took the time to check that one out. If I get the chance this weekend (been spending every waking hour packing), I'll give it a jack, twist and turn with lemon and let you know how it goes. :)

lol. I haven't bought parts from you as of yet, but I think that you did offer me a shell last year when my car got crashed into...As for beer, you're more than welcome to buy me a beer as long as it's good beer. =P

Unfortunately I couldn't show 'cause the purchase of my replacement Starion isn't to occur until tonight. Anyway, I hope you all had a good and safe time.

Hopefully we can organise another one once my Starion-to-be get's fully on the road.

To be written off...

Hi all, The latest update on my car is that the assessor believes that it is not worth fixing and that it should be written off. I've had a reasonable figure suggested to me by my solicitor and I get to keep my car for a small deduction from the offer. I'm reasonably pleased with the outcome (only i...

Where I am up to [Accident Procedure Rant]

Hi all, Well, it's been a few weeks since my car got cleaned up by the P Plater from hell. Apart from giving you all an update, I'd like to take this opportunity to also advise everybody on how useless it is to get Police to attend the scene of an accident unless somebody is hurt. It took a few days...

Thanks Chris. I might need to take you up on that offer depending on what Insurance says I need to do.
