Sorry about your car, but it sounds like nothing would have happened if you didn't just tell her to f**k off for very little!!! If you do know her, just do to her house & see her straight & then find out why she acted like such a bitch, if her parents are there & there was witnesses, then its a bonus.

A manual GT-T, otherwise the Supra. Can not stand auto's!!!!!!

Well, this sort of starts off like an AA meeting sort of thing, so................ Hi, my names Nathan & I'm an Evertonian........... Am in my the 3rd year of a Pastry/Baking apprenticeship at Burswood, 18 more months & I will be qualified, and possibly moving overseas to work, depending on what I feel like in 18 months I guess lol. Am getting a 33 instead of saving for a house because of this reason, and look forward to meeting some people from here eventually. Bye! :headspin:

I read on another thread that someone was insured with a company (pretty sure it was HBF), and then they stopped insuring imports. But because this guy was already insured with them he kept his insurance going, may have been a loyalty thing. I will be going with Just Cars, 19yo r33 gts-t for 18k will be about $1800. Fairly stock at the moment, but will be getting a few decent mods muwahahaha!

Good to see another female wanting to improve her car. I agree with gun32, if thats the way you want to go. Turbo = bigger brakes needed. Personally, I think you should just keep that car for a while & get used to driving for a start, save up money & then buy a newer car already with a turbo in it after a year or two, if power is what you want. By putting a lot of time & money into converting a car you might in the end decide to change up after a while, so just think ahead about what you want to do, and from there it is easy. If you are going to do it, you would probably be spending as much as you would by getting something similar, like a 180sx. Good luck, keep us updated.

I'm still waiting on mine mate!!! From exact start to finish I would say about 10 days, but it depends on when he can start it. He just got 2 more people working for him, so you won't be waiting as long as me. Mine was cleared in late March, but it is only getting ready for compliance now. A mate of mine went there last week & seen it, said it didn't have the rims on so they might have started on it now. If yours did land today it will be cleared in between 1-2 weeks, and from then it is just a matter of waiting to see how many are in the queue ahead of yours. I'm also hanging out for mine!!! Edit- By 10 days I mean the compliance is only 2-3 days usually, but the waiting on the compliance plate from Canberra probably takes the longest.

What line???????? Congrats, what's the mods/power of your 'line???

What issue number is it?????????

LSD (limited slip differential) equally distributes power to both rear wheels, meaning they both spin at the same time with the same amount of grip. A 2-way lsd also helps when braking too. Maybe you're car dosen't have one, but from Japan it came as a factory option for Skylines.

Regardless, the cops can take your car. There was a thing in the paper a few weeks ago, a security guard took off from a set of lights & his tires squealed, and the car got towed.

Damn, your right!!!!!!!!! I didn't even realise that properly, people caught drink driving get ***k all, a few hours lock up & then that's it, back to their car & they are off home (possibly still pissed), so they are without their car for a few hours. Somebody accidentally loses traction going around the corner, and all of a sudden your car is confiscated & you are a menace to society that must be made an example of. Fricken double standards.

Here is some of their upcoming story titles: "MODIFIED CAR OWNERS CAUSE CANCER" "BOXING DAY TSUNAMI CAUSED BY HOONS" "HOONS ASSASSINATED J.F.K" They really piss me off, in a way it should be boycotted but you can't really because this whole effect will rub off on us. Numbnuts Ray Martin didn't help at the end either, shaking his head "makes you think dosen't it". They will continue to mislead the public until they actually decide to go on a meet with someone to see what it's really like.

Click on the members name, and a menu will pop up. Then click on "send a private message to.........", and there it is. Once someone has sent you one, it is easy to reply to their message. A window should pop up saying when you have a new pm, but if not, when you are logged onto the forums in the top right corner it will say if you have any. This is mine: Welcome, ossie_21. You last visited: Today at 07:27 PM Private Messages: 0 Unread, Total 6 I will send you one now with some questions.

Bit late, but................ congratulations on your wedding, I hope everything goes well for both of you.

Hello & welcome Mark. Depending on what you can get available, anything from performance parts to random accessories would get snapped up all the time. Are you in business now, or have a website etc etc ?

1 hour to get your tires changed is acceptable & f****d up at the same time. First, they shouldn't be below the limit in the first place, but second giving you just an hour to get them changed is weird. :confused: Glad it all went well for you though.

Was tempted to save up for 2006, but am going to wait for Euro2008 in Switzerland/Austria, 2 places I want to go anyway, but because they are the joint hosts am going to that. 2008 will be a better option because I will have finished my apprenticeship & been working full time for a couple of years woohoo :Bang: .

Dan, I sent an email of complaint to them, and invited them to come to Perth with me on a cruise to see what it's really like, maybe you can send one too & offer your headlines. :headspin: :headspin:

The one from Monday????????? Was primarily about the impounding laws, and had a segment on street racing, and it included a couple of Skylines in there, but it really pissed me off. The footage they shown was actually SPED UP!!!!!!!!!! There were some absolute idiots doing burnouts & 360's & that sort of thing in traffic, with cars going the same way or other way, but they showed some street dragging, and with a couple actually sped up the footage to make them seem like they were going faster. There was also one guy taping his digital speedo going 140kph around a long bend at night, and then speeding up to the "incredible, stupid" speed of 170kph. I understand this sort of thing puts a bad name on the rest of the people who use their cars in the right way, but the way the media leant this segment was to bring even more attention to these sorts of cars. The only ones they showed footage of were either Skyline's, VL turbo commondores or some V8's. People who have now seen this will only think the people who drive these cars are hoons, and will only strengthen the backing for cops to pull over cars like this for doing nothing wrong, when all the time there are houses being broken into, people getting mugged/beaten up, as well as all the cars that fly in and out of traffic. over. Side note, anyone here had their car impounded????????

Aye, vtec, am with it now. Good luck with the house hunting too.

Do engines come in 1.6l then???????? :wassup: Seriously, I can't think of a car with that cc, although with my luck it is something common & I will look like an idiot. So what is it then?????????

I will have to register my interest now in a shirt when WA gets the next batch. Any other colours from red?????? Can't be having red, sorry.

I'm only 19 but they still gave me a quote on a 33, but I got a lower one from Just Cars so I will go with them once I have my car. Only found 2 reasonable quotes, so it's very hard for young people to get competitive insurance.

Shameless plug, I would also recommend the excellent Burswood International Resort Casino..................... :wassup:

Yep, got mine today too, number #72. If this won't add 30kw at the wheels I'm gonna be pissed............... :wassup: Thanks Dan.
