That may change if you haven't been for over 7 years. Surely there are other dentisti that you could go to than one with a 37 year waiting list.

Finally got out the window, did two loop-de-loops, and landed at 62m.

Here's a US$150,000 gear knob for a Bentley. http://charu.instablogs.com/entry/diamond-...r-your-bentley/

I just downloaded it from here: http://www.atomax.com/gomoku.stm and have won every game so I think we'd need your exact version to give you some hints.

So is this your first car? Damn Skylines are too cheap these days! My first car was a 1978 Toyota Corolla. Oh to have jump straight into the seat of an R33 GTS-T Enjoy yourself but be careful. Hopefully we'll see you at some SAU events in the future.

Cheers. I'm sure to still see her as the new owner is on SAU and will no doubt be going on cruises shortly. I never did take a photo with both GTRs next to each other so I'll have to ask for a shoot one day... when its not raining.
-
It was the fourth time I had sold the car (one guy even left a decent deposit) but I knew the right person would come along who wouldn't stuff me around. The car will definately see some track time. I was discussing an interstate trip last night with some other GTR owners to go around some tracks (as well as the Great Ocean Road). The username is explained a few pages back. One of the cars started like this and finished somewhat worse.

I think it's funny that you want to paint yours white as this is the one that I just sold. Getting a rebuilt engine capable of 320rwkW but every kW is costing me over $40 (including a new PFC and some other goodies)
-
I started the year with 4 cars and am now down to 2... well 1.5 to be exact as the bearing on cylinder 6 came off of my gun metal grey GTR coming back from the haunted cruise we did in May. It's in the process of having a full engine rebuild at Willall but will be another 4-6 weeks before back on the road. At least I can pay for the rebuild now
-
New??? With 10,000 posts!!! Where it says Car(s): R32 GTR, 205 GTI it used to say 2x R32 GTR, 205 GTI The change is more significant in my bank account
-
Although it's very subtle there has been a slight yet significant chance to my profile. Yay!!!!
-
No worries. I have another Clarkson DVD called Heaven & Hell IIRC (a mate was borrowed it for awhile now)
-
How? Are you a mod or is it because you have over 10,000 posts, or because you are the Cupcake Master? Are you just extra 'special'?

I'd definately be keen for some racing sims. I've been living off GT4 for far too long now. Would people be interested in posting up TV shows that we've 'obtained'? I have quite a few that I'm sure some of you would be interested in.
-
*coin drops* Okay. I think you used to be able to. That's why I wondered why I still had it and no one else did.
-
Wasn't meant to be an e-bashing - hense my use of the word appreciate and the . I was just pointing out that it wasn't recent. My apologies Astro if you felt flamed in anyway.
-
Completely changing topics but how come I still have Warn: (0%) and a bunch of bars below my details when no-one else does? I haven't been caught for any of the murders yet...
-
I appreciate you attempt to lighten the current topic but this is a repost from August 2003: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...;hl=bill++gates which was a repost from even earlier.

Does my username make more sense now? Cheers. As to how to find the time. Currently not working so that answers current situation. In 1995 I was a uni student workming part time in a retail outlet. As the crash occurred mid-November I deferred all my exams and any outstanding assignments that I had and stopped working for a few weeks and then went back to work on reduced hours. In 2002/2003 I stopped working for about a month each time and then went back to work on reduced hours. However, I only have myself and my dog to look after not a family like you so that makes a difference. As to affordability the accident in 1995 and this year are covered by CTP insurance and in 2002 & 2003 I was working as a drug rep and was therefore covered by Workcover so I've never really paid for any of the treatment.

Tangles I can certainly empathise with living with chronic pain. I've suffer back and neck pain since September 18th 1995 when someone rear ended me doing 80kmhr. It took 6 years to physically recover from that (and another year for the court case to resolve itself) and then I was in another crash in November 2002 (car 3 in a four car collision) where I exacerbated the previous injuries and then add some new ones. 3 months later I was in another four car collision which made things worse again. After a long, slow and (at times) painful rehab program over the next 4 years I was finally back in decent physical shape and management of my pain... And then some lady ran a red light and hit me pushing me over four lanes of traffic and through a fence on the other side of the road. I spent some time in hospital and am once again doing rehab. The rehab has been extremely helpful in regaining movement, strength and confidence in my body once again. It starts with physio ( twice a week), incorporates hydrotherapy ( 3 times a week) and now I'm doing pilates (3 times a week) that will eventually lead to gym work (3 times a week). I have to be conscientious of my posture in everything that I do and maintain a healthy body weight to minimse the pressue placed on my back. My aim is to get back to indoor soccer - whether this is realistic or not remains to be seen but I believe I will be able to. Again this is about being proactive and doing something about my pain rather than feel imprisioned by it. ATM I take opiates for pain management plus other medication to assist with sleep. My aim is to get off the medication completely as I have in the past.

Tangles I don't know if you're being facetious above but if you are talking/thinking about suicide and the only thing preventing you is your kids then it sounds like you need some professional help. There are many different forms of medication that can act as mood enhances these days (not just anti-depressants) and therapy from either psychologists and/or psychiatrists. If you have seen them before and think they were useless then see different people (I can give you some contacts if you need them). If chronic pain is the cause of your despair then you can/need talk to people about pain management. As for how to make yourself feel better there are two things that I feel are important: 1. Do something proactive about your pain (I take pilates classes 3 times a week to help me with chronic back & neck pain and more recently knee, hip & rib pain). 2. Be social. Go see family & friends. Make an effort to contact them if they don't contact you. Try make new friends - half of my social activities these days are with people I've met because of my GTRs. Depression is too often diagnosed and treated these days for people that are just feeling a little down or low. But the reason for this is that some of these people are heading towards a major depression that often leads to self harm and doctors etc don't want these people to slip through the cracks.

Anyone know what the commetry was saying? Was a decent driver - looked smooth around the Ring - and did appear to pull away from the 911 Turbo which Nissan set as its benchmark.
-
That would be heartbreaking if it was your car. It's not one of the R33s that have been stolen recently? Anyone from SAU?
-
Been doing some research have you Andy?
