its interesting anyhow.. so looks like you guys had fun last night Ran into some sort of Soarer cruise this morning at Yatala BP...they all looked at the skyline..lol

lol.. yeah, its bit different to drive, but at its heart a skyline so not too much different to mine. Its series 2 so feels a bit different to drive and the noise it makes is slightly different and maybe a bit more modern feeling, but overall pretty much the same as driving mine.. Except he needs a definitely wheel alignment (or maybe its hicas as the light is permanently on) He's got some nice rice with the Blitz SBC or whatever it is, lots of pretty grraphs to look at it. I think he's turned down the boost for me too as its only running ~8psi but i didn't want to fiddle with it.. hehe

mornin! I'm at work.. woohoo

yeah.. without sub, even with good speakers can sound "tinney" and lacking in definition. My sub is on a bit of a dodgy connection so i notice when it drops out. One day I'll fix the wiring properly... lol.

The ones you have in there aren't too bad I was listening to a CD on the way down here. I got the Hertz splits in mine. They do sound a bit better than I think the kenwoods you have in there at the moment, but not massively noticeable to be honest. Think you'd probably want to go for something around the $500 mark to notice the difference, or go for the amp beforehand. So I reckon go for a good amp first, see when your speakers (and not the head unit amp) are maxing out -- then consider speakers. Amp will allow you to get clearer sound at higher volumes, which you will notice.

morning... anybody home??

Just look for the igniter pack on the back of the engine, ontop of the plastic spark plug cover. If its series 1 it will have it, s2 won't. Don't forget the different ECU's required for s1 and s2 engines.

the oracle says you must have red calipers one day like mine anyhow, i am going to bed.. got work tomorras so hi and bye

for future ref: i have cherry red on my maroney.. look decent. Otherwise maybe silver could be nice. Even yellow if you wanted very bright. I think they look best as either a complementary (different shade of your cars colour), or contrasting colour (otherside of the colour wheel) I am in possession of twoquik's car so it (and its owner) will be meeting there sunday . If you do see it, it will have have 50 cops following it also cannonball-run style (joke). And ooo, yes I saw the interior just before and its quite nice. I'll bring my camera.

I think there is the odd one that goes for $6k for the "rubbery" landed figure.. which basically means they are free in japan (they're scrap metal to them), but then you have to add the engineering, stamp duty, registration, etc. It all adds up to at least another $1-$2k. They are around but who knows the condition. Some look good in the photos. Not sure who is exactly buying these cars, probably noobie p-platers. Some must have landed in the country by now? Don't hear much feedback on any of them.

yeah.. mine goes fast like that .. haven't done it for a while though.

hehe.. "it wasn't my car officer so i thought i'd see how fast it could go"

if reasonably lowered (not to the shit either) + 18" rims + full lock turn.. you'll get rubbing.. which is not good for anything.. if you mainly use your car for nice cruising with the odd fang, you probably won't notice it and 18's are fine. If you push your car to its limits and find yourself locking the steering up on a regular basis, you're probably going to want 17's IMHO.

zoix: sounds painful.. hmmm.. series2 feels weird to drive. So who wants to see how fast we can get a skyline on the m1 ??

let me guess, they crash, the cops get called and the whole "street racing is bad" is preached to the masses. Gotta love public education via sitcoms. How much is the government paying the script writers of Home and Away and Neighbours anyhow to write these things in?

i'm up for sharing vomit! I'm in!!

oh well.. i'm off to pick up twoquiks car..get to drive another skyline. shall be interesting.

maybe some of it, but obviously some clearly don't wish to see any other car other than a skyline there at all.

in 6 months time when everbody is bored of meeting and cruising, they'll probably wonder why too

yeah, pretty lame.. seems like there is those who feel strongly in their erm, stance..

yeah, i need a beer.. fridge is empty and if i have 1 or two i'll probably fall asleep

(above) Well I think all that obvious from this is there is definitely two sides to the fence here. Unfortunately I guess it will be the wingeing side will be the one that will have their sway with snide comments or other rudeness to turn others away anyhow. Bit disappointed to be honest.

yeah, you always say "not going to take it that hard" but when you find yourself breaking traction around the corners you soon find out you've thrown that out the window.
