    Unhappy 'nother newbie in Brisvegas....

    ...Greetings alla you folk out there. I was recently blessed with a fresh(ish) import from Japan.
    I landed a 1997 VR-4 Legnum around 2 months ago here in Brisbane....
    Looks like a great site with plenty of eye-candy as well as news and advice, I'd say it's real nice to be here...
    ...righto, off of me soap box now, thanx for having me, looking forward to chating with some of you.

    I could start by requesting any info on any reliable mechanics/ garages with good enough experiance to look after her if she falls ill.
    ... actually, need it soon, as I may have already done her in....

    ...yesterday I lost power. The turbos are spooling up, but you can hear the air pressure 'leaking' past somewhere when reving up.
    If it means anything, the car still runs normally (mmmm?!?!?!) just no power and no overheating ...

    Plz help...

    Hi Wazza, welcome. It sounds as if you may have a split hose/pipe or one is not properly attached. As you're in Aussie, you might also want to check out http://ozvr4.com/forums/forum.php for some folks who can give you advice on local mechanics etc.

    Don't be a stranger
