there was a heavy duty single or a 3 or 5 leaf option as part of each kit, but i think they could be bought separately too.
the stage 1 kit was HD single leaf.
stage 2 was 3 leaf.
and stage 3 was 5 leaf.
oh, and the HD single leaf was part # 51300-276 and cost 2,050 yen.
3 leaf # 51300-351 costing 3,300 yen
5 leaf # 51300-278 costing 3,560 yen.
there's some more useless info!!
Seems to have 5 leaves.

Looks like a Bluebird beside the GT , but is it a "SSS" ? Probably not.

Now thats cool!  Isn't the interwebby an amazing thing? The old Bluebird,......Dennis had one of those for a while. Bit slow though, Belletts blew it to the weeds..... Cheers, Matt.

I think it's the price; 1 480 000 yen! But there are a lot of zeros there... and Belletts are narrow!

Today it works out to $14,693... which is not far (but more) than I paid for mine landed in Aus!! I think they put that price on it before they found the rust...

*BUMP* Time for a quick update on the GTR.... Turns out it's got an engine issue. Can't seem to work out what the problem is...it's got this whinging, whining noise and seems to be consuming Weet Bix and Matchbox cars at an alarming rate.... Attachment:

I can't see any problem there...... I reckon that little engine will rev it's head off if you put the right fuel in it  red cordial and twisties should do the trick

Dave mate,
The whinging whining noise may be reduced somewhat by adding a generous quantity of chocolate to the fuel supply, with a reduction of the weetbix portion.
I have previously discovered that the consumption of matchbox cars can cause problems with with the internal components, which may also be a cause of troubleing noises. The underbonnet components certainly appear in good condition, so should only require a little tweaking to provide the desired result.
Glad to help,
Matt.
