  1. Time for another flood of "younger drivers killed" headlines.
  2. Illegal street racing doesn't hurt anybody hey? Yep! Tell me another one!
  3. Intrestingly, they're reverted back to a single keel setup. Wonder why Mclaren are still keen the twin keel setup? They probably still believe the aero advantages outweigh the weight gain. Last year they had major issues with the front tyres wearing out too quickly. I would love to see Webber take the crown. I feel it's time for another Aussie F1 king.
  4. Some pass this thread to one of the F1 teams. Aerodynamic genius at work! :bahaha:
  5. The Jazz has an interesting gearbox. 7 Speed CVT transmission. However the small engine leaves a little more to be desired. Intresting seating arrangements too! I would go the SP23. I drove just the base model 3 and it's simply amazing how refined small cars are these days. They don't shake and rattle going over bumps. Very solid chassis. Motor had a good pull. I can only imagine the SP23 being better.
  6. The NSXR came out in 1992 or so. Wait till 2007 then bring it under the 15year rule... it it remains unchanged by then....
  7. Forget traction control and 4WD with the 'stang and the Cobra. I reckon it's more fun to drive hi powered/torque crazy RWD cars. Adding things like traction control and 4WD to them, you lose the soul of those types of cars... call me old skool but hey. It's like removing the 4WD from a GTR into 2WD. It's just not the same driving experience. I've read somewhere too that the original Cobra's handles crap. But kit cars would have different suspension setups etc... so they may handle better???? If handling is your thing then go the Lotus 7 replica's. Go Eleanor I say. Kit cars will vary so much on how you put it together. It could come out good, it could come out crap. With Eleanor it's pretty much all there ready to go.
  8. Get the redtop. My mate's s14 engine went and finding a blacktop SR20 was more expensive and the headaches that went along with it.
  9. Forget about numbers for a moment and get your ass in a GTR then a STi. The way they both drive is very different. The feed back, the feel of the car in general. I can't say much for the STi as it's changed a sh*t load from my 94 WRX. But I think there are some things that won't change. But I can tell you that a GTR is more of a drivers car. Push hard and it will bite back. Drive at 10-10ths and it will bring a bigger smile than a STi. It's not always about numbers to toss over.
  10. My opinion but a car with good mags will always look better than a car with just a body kit.
  11. Any shopping center is a hotspot for w@nkers.
  12. I want to build a PC specifically for games and was wondering which is better. AMD Athlon64 (754 pin) or P4 (775 pin). AGP or PCI express? Also can people suggest well priced video cards (no more than $400). Thanks!
  13. Pizzona is a test driver full stop. His race performance were never really spectacular. He had his chances this year and he was no better then Marc Gene. They were fighting at the front/mid bunch. Ralf come back and the car is at the front end of the pack. It shows something. The car is capable, the driver isn't.
  14. White R34 GTR travelling city bound on M5 at 7:20pm yesterday. WOW! And a few hundred meters behind was a midnight purple R33 GTR. Oh baby!
  15. How did you find out the AFM is alright? Did you replace both with a working unit? How about switching the little silver box at the back of the plugs (Ignitor I think).
  16. Owner of Oran wants to sell out and buy EC. EC is kinda borning. OP is better.
  17. What new rule change?
  18. Voted!
  19. OP rocks so much, I may hire an MX5 just for kicks.
  20. Well, it's all down to where me and the future missus want to live. It's a toss between here and the US. If it's here I will get a stripped R32 gtst for trackday hooning. If it's in the US, it's gonna ba a yank tank. Corvette or Viper. I hope it's not there cause there ain't many race tracks which aren't oval. Though Laguna Seca would be something to have a go at.
  21. 88 Tarago and a 99 CRV. I not sure if I want another sports car until I get my financal act together.
  22. If SAU ever makes a "Kills stories" section, I'm never coming back. I reckon SAU is the best forum because the mods actively get rid of such stupidity, and for a very good reason too. Perhaps they should make it mandatory for P platers with high powered cars to join certain car clubs. Not your "low-riders", "doof-doof", "I'm a fag" car club. But a proper CAMS affiliated club like SAU. CAMS affiliated clubs generally have mature members who could mentor younger drivers.
  23. I wish I could tell you some spectacular story like it was written off or something. But I just sold it.
  24. My Skyline is no longer in my drive way. I had lots of good memories with it. Track days, driver training, Old pacific, Great ocean.... but time to move on.
  25. How can they do that? What #@*$^%(!!!!!
