My cousin's a highway patroller. He reckons the slight tint on my headlights is enough for a defect - that's how it came out of the factory. All you gotta do it look at ALL tha Audi TT's and they have more tint on their headlights than my rear window.

Lol! I wondered what Duncan had gotten up to Good work there :-)

Just remember the downside of long weekends - double demerits.

Closeup on a rear vision mirror: - A real mans performance modification. That's all I got :-) BTW, everything was done on the cheap... Printed out stickers, racing stripes spray painted on... Umm... No! Contact with the backing still on, but masking taped. Neons were all glow sticks, except for the Glow Wire, and the 2 interior "neons" (Cold cathodes). I had those from another project. BTW, the cold cathodes were sound sensitive and reacted in time with the beat of the mostly shitty music I was playing :-)

Rear Straight - Racing stripes, HSV logo, neons, fake plates :-)

Rear Angle - Pretty much the same shot, but with a flash. - Blue racing stripes again, even on the wing - The plates again - This GTS25T is one of those super fast HSV versions, as indicated by the modified badging

Rear angle dark: - A pretty sexy rear shot :-) - Notice the fake plates again, and 2 glow sitcks above and below the "Skyline" plate on the back

Nos Boy: - Another rear shot. A NOS logo is on the fuel cap. Hard-core ricers probably know jack shit about where NO2 goes - and that's the most logical spot! Lol!

Nismo: - Nismo window logo. Cost about $2 courtesy to nice printing and some website - Red neon

Front Angle: - Same thing, just at a different angle

I just got pics of my own car, but there were other camera about.. Post those pics here! Front Straight: - Blue racing stripes - Fluffy dice - Blue & red neon + blue glow wire - 2 blue glow sticks behind those 2 little grilles - Fake number plate with integra type-r holders

From the Eastern Suburbs, it takes 3 hours on the dot along the M4 / Great Western Highway. From Merrylands, probably about 2:15 - 2:30.. Longer if we take the Bells Line of Road.

Cool! I'll be at 6c, and so will the 180.

A mate in a 180 just found out about this gathering, so he wants to come. He'll probably be by himself and have a little bit of rice on his car for the event

Correct me if I'm wrong guys... I'm not entirely sure about the R34 model types... GT-T is a rwd turbo right? Devilish Angel: You're making a bad decision if you get a turbo car. Anyway, your choice. Crash it and there are more spare parts for the rest of us

No! They're not! All car's have a limit, and when you break the limit in a 4wd, it'll really let you know about it.. My old man's friend *had* a 4wd subaru liberty. Until he hit a guard rail one day and wrote the car off. He believed that his 4wd car would be safer.

"Plenty of 17year olds live to see 25 without having killed anyone or having been a menace to society." How many of those had GT-R's? Lol! I reckon that everyone should have a go at driving a performance car sometime, even if only for the sake of a broader driving experience. The more driving experience someone has, the better they'll likely be (discounting natural talent). It just seems wrong to me that someone would get into a weapon of a car before knowing how to use a more sedate one. My sister is the same.. She's 18 and has her heart set on an S15. The only thing that's keeping me happy about the whole affair is that I know she can't afford it :-) One day, she'll be able to get one and by then she'll know how to drive reasonably well. Between myself and her mates, I'll expect she'll have had the opportunity to have driven fast cars. And when that day comes, I'll just have to take her aside and show that her oldest brother still has the fastest car

By the way, that also goes for turbo R34's... And turbo R32's.

You do not have to push this car. I've got 6 years of driving experience (hardly any compared to most people), and have a stock r33 gts-t. Once, the highway was a little wet, and I went around a slight bend a little too fast - 80kph. The rear flicked around. I'd had the car for about 2 months. I recovered from it after about 6 fishtails, but that's the closest I've ever been to killing myself. If a car were coming the other way, I would have collected them head on - no doubt killing myself, but probably some of the people in the other car. A GT-R is 4wd to a degree, but that will not save you at all. And because of the extra power in it, it's even more likely to come pear shaped. When learning to drive a car, you will lose control of it. And if you don't have the driver experience to get out of your mess, then quite frankly, you're f**ked. So is the car, and so is whoever you may hit. I know this sounds gloomy and the sort of thing a parent would say, but if you get behind the wheel of a GT-R, then the odds are really stacked against you - and it's also been a pleasure knowing you. Bugger the cost of insurance and the cost of the car, but are you willing to place your life at such a high risk? Just for the sake of having the best? To be honest with you, I wouldn't touch a turbo car until I had racked up a few years of driving experience. Advanced driver training won't help here (IMO). The N/A skylines can all be kitted up to look like a GT-R, if looks are really that important. The money you save can be put to things like chromies and a wicked stereo.. You need to learn to walk before you learn to run. If you do ignore advice against buying the GT-R, then park it in a locked garage for a few years. Buy a cheap shitty pulsar or something to learn in, because if you can afford a GT-R, you can also afford to buy a shitty 80's car that you can crash around as a second car.

I dunno... Drive to bathurst, do a couple of laps, then drive back :-) If there's no BBQ, then there's pleanty of places to get some grub...

Well, I changed it for the princely sum of $1.50... Undid the power cable and gave it a small twist with the needle nose pliers. Then it just unscrewed :-) Same thing in reverse to put it back. I don't think they'd ever been changed before 'cause there was that much crap and dust in there... It's amazing the things that never have been changed before... My spare tyre is the original japanese one (although it -should- have been replaced), and it's still got it's dye on the tread.. Never been used :-)

Can't you use your prior RTA check papers to get out of the defects?

There should be an award for the ricest skyline :-)

I believe you can also modify the stock turbo to make it high-flowed... I don't know about ball bearings. Perhaps it's an S2 turbo that's been high-flowed. S2 were supposed to have ball bearing turbo's? Anyone correct me if I'm wrong... You can also change the diff from a manual to an auto version.. It's supposed to be pretty much bolt in, but instead of the standard 4.1:1 ratio, it has 4.3:1 (?), which is supposed to give better acceleration at the cost of highest speed. That's been covered a few times here, but I can't remember the exact details. I don't know anything about gear-box ratios (or gearbox mods in general)... Perhaps it's a gearbox from a different model. I hear that all RB gearboxes are supposed to be interchangable, but I don't know whether or not to believe it. RB20 owners supposedly can upgrade to RB25 gearboxes without too much sorry. Anyway, I know that my S1 GTS-T front bar is lower (and boxier), my rear wing is square shaped, I have a mesh grille with a red S badge, and I don't have side skirts. It also has velour seats (also an option I believe). Not a bad package, but I reckon it could do with the side skirts (if anyone is selling theirs)

That's an R33 GTS-T (aka GTS25T). I believe R33's started in 1993... And chances are that R32's finished in 1993 also. My mate has a '93 skyline, and it's certainly an r33. Anyway, I'm not in brisbane, so I can't look at it :-)
