24.01.2022 I wholly concur. I would only add. That's $US and excludes GST.

24.01.2022 Any followers that can fluently speak Japanese, and can speak to a certain rude Japanese tuning house directly in a forthright manner? Please be advised that you will need to know the Japanese equivalent of "Get knotted!" should the conversation move in an anticipated ruder direction.

24.01.2022 The latest arrival for a full bare metal nut and bolt restoration with us. Thank you to Andrew Hanna for agreeing to sell this to our customer, and thereby ensuring this will be one of the best restored examples worldwide.

23.01.2022 Some sage advice from a noted restoration writer. https://www.hemmings.com/bl/article/dealing-with-restorers/

21.01.2022 The latest arrival at Machina Magica for restoration an R34 GT-R Nismo R1.

20.01.2022 Only 7 days until 1995 R33 GT-Rs are legal in the USA! Let's see who has been smart already! Simple supply and demand equation! USA 333,000,000 population. Even a tiny fraction of that number will drive the price up. They are also the biggest market for R35 GT-R sales with between 1700 - 2100 sold per year. This year was their greatest sales figure.

19.01.2022 Merry Christmas everyone! Here's a promising gift from Nissan, to read about when you're bored by the irrelevant relatives, over the kids and the tolerance of the in-laws relegates you to Facebook after the 10th back handed snide remark for the day. We are "probably" very happy with this direction Nissan: https://www.google.com///346758/r36-nissan-gtr-hybrid/amp/

19.01.2022 Nissan now have a solution for deleted sheet metal. It's one of the biggest breakthroughs in keeping GT-R's economically alive. https://www.autonews.com//nissan-swaps-dies-robots-new-bod

12.01.2022 The latest arrival for restoration. A Bayside Blue R34 GT-R V-spec II.

12.01.2022 The picture says it N1 all:

10.01.2022 I had a big challenge in Cardo's subframes. The rear had a perfect balance of what appeared to be rust, damage and cement. The front subframe firmly fitted into the little life category of FML! It had comprehensive damage on thick sheet metal with no access to the rear in sections with a few crushed domed curves for fun. Below is a small sample. Further images in photos section.

10.01.2022 The latest restoration arrival needs little by way of introduction, namely: a Mine's S.1 R33 N1. This "is" Mines build 16 (irrespective of the persistent rumours that were deliberately circulated when it was for sale years ago and continue to this day). This N1s history is very interesting. The Mine's demo car originally debuted at Tokyo Auto Salon in 1996. The car was also the winner of the Japanese tuner challenge in 1996 for both circuit and drag racing. The car's perform...ances can be seen on the Best Motoring VHS, which is now available online. You may notice from the Mine's interview on youtube that the s1 Demo car disappeared around end of 1997 after being a hugely successful race car, and was in 1997 replaced with a new street version non race decal series 3 N1. The series 1 was the iconic car that was featured and won in the Best Motoring tuner challenge in both drag and circuit racing. The car was complied in Australia in October 1998. It was owned and raced in Targa TAS first by Greg Harwood. It then changed ownership and raced in Targa Tasmania quite successfully by Tasmanian Jeff Keyte under race number 914. It was later sold and circuit raced by Sam Markov. It hit a wall at some stage on the N/S/F and this turned many off, as it was a race car repair. It was put up for sale on My105 for quite a while, before eventually being sold to Brad Kennicott of JDM Garage. Brad parted it out of all the Mines and N1 components. The remaining shell was purchased by Mick Mansour of Motor Sports Mechanical. Mick was approached by us on behalf of an overseas customer, who was looking for a unique GT-R to restore. Sadly the overseas Singaporean buyer passed on the car, due to the extent of work required to restore it. The car has subsequently ended up with a new Australian owner that is committed to a full bare metal nut and bolt restoration back to its original Mine's build. Machina Magica would like to publicly thank Mick for being willing to sell the car, and thereby enabling its full restoration by Machina Magica.

02.01.2022 A DIY tip? Read to the end.

02.01.2022 I believe we call this a total write off! For all those that are still fooled by electric, might I suggest you read this. https://www.google.com//firefighters-dropped-smoldering-/

01.01.2022 It's a no from me Nissan. I would rather chew my own arm off, than drive an EV. Go Hydrogen if you must to appease the hipsters. I would think they wouldn't drive a GT-R anyway. More likely they would ride electric scooters and have T-Shirts with Greta screen printed on the front. https://www.news.com.au///38287d22e04c8aa0323d6a6ba76a381a
