yeah i didnt wana repaint, as it was resprayed a year earlier and paint was perfect. so was limted with how much they could lip it. but if ur gona respray the car, they can be more agressive with the flare.
-

-

Ok really didnt wana sell this setup as its perfectly matched and top of the range quality parts. But as these parts dont suit the setup in my new car, sadly they must be sold. Please note, these arnt the recent chinese sell out versions of soundstream parts. But were purchased when soundstream had a focus on quality rather than $$$. Van Gogh Subs -12" -DVC -600 RMS -$600 each brand new when i bought them. Basically top of the line SQ sub made by soundstream. With these u will hear ur music, not be a one note wonder. Edge Amp -Monoblock -900RMS -$900 brand new when i bought it. This is around the middle of the range in the spectrum of soundstream, however puts out a LOT of power. Box -custom box tuned for the van gogh subs. -fits in a s13 boot, so can fit anything. -cost me around $150 to get made up, to fit a s13 boot, not a easy job. Now everyone knows how shallow and small a silvia boot is, let alone the space inside the cabin. Yet with no sound deadening or tuning the car acustics, this setup made 132 db. No doubt around the 140 mark if in a hatch or went to the effort of getting the setup tuned with the car. As u can see, this setup cost me well over $2000. All parts are working 100%, as i wouldnt have them for sale otherwise. Duno how much these parts go for these days. I would consider selling the entire setup for $1000. If u go for a walk thru JB, u will see how much $1000 will get u. maybe some dodgy sony gear with a box if ur lucky. its like comparing an excel with a lambo. Quality and performance cant be compared. Let me know of any questions u may have, thanks.

honestly i cant be bothered reading past the first page.. yes i dont have a skyline.. but i have taken part in starting a car club in sa, as well has been part of a large one that went under many years back. so take my advice or leave it. first of all dont contradict urself. if u just want skylines, excellent. only except skylines, if u start making exceptions with stageas and ceffy's, where do u draw the line. rb silvias? before u know it u have achieved nothing and will be back to sau. audience; excluding cars is a risk. look at sau and ns.com. yes its oriented around those models, but anyone can come and go. it will always have the skyline/silvia theme. but that doesnt stop people. if u exclude people. u limit how the club will grow. it will increase in size initially and then plateau, simily coz there isnt the numbers in sa to maintain such a specific club. i mean look at the sa section of sau atm. its one of the smallest 'clubs' in sa. and u want to future divide it into segments?? idiots are everywhere. yes u will get them in ur club. as skylines arnt idiot proof, as some of u may wish it is the case. dont emphasise on a name, really doesnt mean much, just have nothing gay. personally i hate SAUSA, similar to PGA-SA. so basically ur club will be called SKYLINES AUSTRALIA SOUTH AUSTRALIA. its redundant. end of the day, u could have the perfect name, perfect set of cars, perfect cruises, not bitching.. but it all comes down to politics. if an admin/mod goes emo and ditches the club at a bad time. or like what is happening now. a group wana go off and start their own thing. it will fail honestly, u dont realise how much money and time u will incur. hosting fee. then purchasing a forum board, bi-annual renewal. banners, mechandise, advertising. then u have to spend months setting up the forums initially, hosting, settings. and everyday checking, moderating the site. time is money, so u will need to apoint mod teams. its not a easy task. basically, its much easier and simpler to just join a club that already exists. all the hard work already done. and after all its adelaide. the car scene is scattered. u wont pull the numbers to keep it going. believe, ive been there. however if ur prepared to put in the hard yards.. and have a edge so peope actually wana join and not leave. ie, GOOD crusies, none of this poser shit. then go for it. hell i havnt even gotten around to closing the club engage domain yet. could re-vamp that if u wanted to..

ns.com cruise is already on this day.. should have checked ur calendar. *edit* - that will teach me to open this page then reply 10 mins later without checking other posts lol.
-
ns.com is having a cruise for the fire thingy on sunday.

like i keep saying, 'doing what u want with ur car' doesnt justify turning it into a bucket of puke on wheels. see we arnt pissed off at all. moreso just dissapointed lol. its easy to have a fancy display like his when u cut corners on every modification.. especially his rims.. umm brakes, suspension.. ok well the whole damn car!
-
i look forward to seeing it at AJD.
-
if u noticed i didnt have any critisim about the power hes 'apprently' making. hes obviously had engine work and i respect that. but doesnt mean u can go all out and make gay pride mobile. theres no specific or elitest mindset u need to judge cars. just use ur common sense.. even tho it aint common lol.
-
oh i hope hes on here. maybe knock some sense into him and knock him out of his oblivious bubble of 'no taste'. people always complain 'oh everyone is different'. yeah and no. if u mod ur car in a homosexual manner its still gay. different, but defiantly gay.
-
oh whos 32 with the angel eyes. they used to be garys.. which was created using mine as a blue print. love the plates. where did u get them?
-
maybe u could have covered it with a sticker
-
dragon.. does anything need to be said? :facepalm: shopping list, chinese (not jap) stickers, neons, mesh, oh so gay rims, ride height, too much pointless red hose, a gay theme primary school kids would have made up. saw it driving down the road once, almost crashed coz it was such a head turner.. woops did i say turner. i mean shaker in disgust. oh well some people are just born clueless. should have got off my ass and taken my car out, meh.
-
aww now im never gona sell my chrome rims
-
im guessing u work at wheelworx lol. what u got in the way of 19x8.5/9 +20/30ish in 3 pieces. and rough prices?
-
^^^ lol. i dont think its a question of do u wana fill ur guards, its do u want ur wheels to 'fit'. shadow spec isnt correct fitment. anything can be shoe horned under the guards, take mine for example haha.
-
someone has been PMing u, instead of taking it up with me.. wow. sorry not trying to spam.. ill go back to building cars, EDIT by SLED and yes i know stagea's are almost identical to skylines bar the body. was just trying to make a point how specific someone was trying to make it for entry. good luck on the day, at least the weather should be much better this weekend.
-
i never mentioned i was gona enter, or even planned on entering. i just like taking shots at people up on their high horse. gota kinda slap them back to reality u know. otherwise u end up with.. lol yeah.. so by ur logic 300's and 350's can enter. and before u go saying its a V configuration, does that mean a R35 is not welcome lol its all loop holes. like its been said, should be more about the cars than the stickers.. um i mean badging.
-
lol i know i only got a auto 1.8lt it makes more than TURBO r34's .. but pfft what good is that. and all my aftermarket suspension is just to be cool oh dang u got me.. lol i really wana know how it feels 'winning' awards no one else enters. winning by default.. classy. and all i get is gay best jap trophies
-
hmm maybe ill enter.. coz i heard the judges like judging the judging, so im gona put some spinners on my spinners dawg! then i too can prance around bragging about my awards i only win coz no one in their right mind wants to win them.
-
since when do people 'own' threads lol.
-
yeah thats it, screw awards. as long as everyone is out enjoying themselves.
-
i wouldnt worry, especially what the 'judges' think. put a BMW badge on ur car, call it a conversion, then u too can win an award for unnecessary shit on ur car.
