For any of you guys and gals who are looking for a motordyne intake manifold, i have a brand new one for sale which i bought but realise to late that 37VHR and 25HR engine mods will not fit each other. Selling for cheap its brand new! 500USD gets it! Cheers!

Interesting, I've read a bit about how difficult car ownership, and car modding, is in Singapore. Are there any turbo kits approved for the g37, and how have you managed to keep the license and registration for the car for 6 years? It must be outrageously expensive.

Hahaha ill get some pics soon once i get some time off work. Well in singapore most mods that deal with the engine needs to be approved by the traffic authorities so there aren't any turbo or supercharger kits approved for many cars unless they come stock with a turbo. Even the muffler must be tested and approved before it is legally allowed to be on your car. Some driver just don't give a damn and just mod it anyway and hope not to be caught.

In singapore a typical car lifespan is 10 years before you got to pay a duty if you wanna drive it for another ten years. Its bloody expensive to own a car here.

The duty which is called a certificate of entitlement essentially is just a paper which gives you the right to own a car and it can cause from as low as a dollar to tens of thousand depending on the demand of the market. The goverment strongly encourages people living here to use the public transport and not rely on private transportation much.

Nice photos. I am new here too and hope to put an 'official' intro once I get a few more pics of my car.
This seems like a great forum.
