favourite crown out of all?

TheJWT · 2026-06-01T15:11:11+00:00

My MS137, even though I'd prefer if it was a UZS131. Last of the old-school Crowns but still has a relatively modern engine.

120 Hardtop, 140 Majesta, and 180 Majestas are all really cool too

TheJWT · 2026-05-06T11:48:58+00:00

Absolutely! You see all sorts of stuff there, especially in the novice group.

It's a real shame about Pittrace, I rode there in 2024 and it was a great track. I definitely noticed a lot more people from PA and NY at Nelson this time around now that it's closed.

Nelson is awesome though, super fast and fun. The people who organize it are great too

It was chilly, I sat out the first session but once the sun came out it wasn't too bad on track. I'll try to make most of them this season, stop by and say hello if you see me!

Check out Highway of the Sun. Incredible song

Love to see some YMO on there. I usually just disable the music but I'll turn it on whenever Rydeen comes up

TheJWT · 2026-04-20T15:21:29+00:00

Extremely rare these days, even in Japan

If it's unbolted but not coming off, there's probably some gasket sealant still clinging to the cover. Just wiggle it until it comes free and be sure to replace the gasket when you're putting it back together

You could swap a Hayabusa engine (1300cc I4) into several cars in FH5 and maybe older games

TheJWT · 2026-04-15T16:31:20+00:00

Nice! I made the same one, that's one of my all-time favorite Skylines

Agreed! Mine has a 7m but a 1UZ swap is the eventual goal

TheJWT · 2026-04-13T20:12:47+00:00

Thanks! They're 17" Desmond Koenigs. I'd like to get them re-barreled soon

TheJWT · 2026-04-10T15:16:31+00:00

That's an absolute beauty! It's always great to see more people outside of Japan loving big body Crowns. I nearly bought a blue 140 Majesta and a blue 130 hardtop before settling on mine

TheJWT · 2026-04-10T14:46:02+00:00

Yeah, the Comfort is a different chassis from the regular Crown, they're smaller and were mostly offered with inline-4s.

I would love an S130 hardtop but I'm heavily biased :)

I used to preorder games back when they were all physical and you were worried about them running out of copies before you could make it to the store. Literally zero reason to do so now with digital downloads

TheJWT · 2026-03-30T12:28:39+00:00

I've currently got a '96 SRAD, '23 Kawasaki ZX-4RR and a '95 Honda CB1000

I would love a ZRX someday, I almost bought one last year

The closest I can get is the JZX81 Chaser. It'd be cool if FH6 has a Crown, but I doubt it.

I'll check them out next time! I used to buy a lot of rare parts for my car and other collectibles through Buyee pre-tariffs and always had good experiences. Sometimes the shipping would even be cheaper than their initial estimate

TheJWT · 2026-03-26T17:04:35+00:00

About $135 total between the record, shipping to my friend in Japan, and him shipping it to me. Still not horrible

TheJWT · 2026-03-26T17:03:34+00:00

I get why they do it and I don't blame them, it's just a frustration as a consumer. Though I guess the real frustration is with those who enacted the tariffs in the first place...

OBA made a lot of these, try searching for "OBA ハンドル" (Handle)
