  1. yeh i would like to know that but in reference to victorian laws
  2. since were on the topic of P Plater legal i was wondering if a stock R33 GTS (non-turbo) is legal to drive on P's? as there is uncertainty around the Turbo version of this car... im taking a pot shot guess and saying it is??
  3. LOL that was a speed typing error my bad you just have to source the best places to get your paint jobs, neons, body kits and all the mods you plan to do for the best price and service available thats what i mean by "research research..." and yeh hydrolics would be actually pretty cool lol, as for the cost i havnt a clue how much they would be.. sorry ask around or pm an expert
  4. Hey thats almost the same as me but minus the carbon fibre hoods, the GT wing and the decals (maybe a few little ones) but yeh i love cars that look like that as it takes time and effort to get a car to look good like that. Its always good to see nice looking cars on the road instead of the standard average joe car and to much is maybe when you get hydrolics and neons that bounce with the bass of the music lol good luck and sounds pretty good P.S as i have learnt from my post, Research Reasearch research before jumping into anything
  5. hey thanks for the info on insurance i have seen the adds for Just Cars so i was already going to try them out for a quote do you suggest third party with fire + theft or fully comp?? i did a quote for third party and its $690 i have submited a new quote to find out the fully comp but has anyone got the price so i can compare it to the new quote? i am currently going to the Peninsula School (mount eliza) righta cross from Mount Eliza Primary in year 12 and thats cool i work at flakey jakes in bentons square (right next to mt martha) i work thursday nights and saturday nights (5 - 9pm) so if ur in the area be sure to drop in hehe cheers again for all the info and i will remember not to get the sony amps, speakers etc.
  6. hey really cool website you have some very nice cars good job and nice looking website too
  7. well its definatly giving me something to think about now lol i live in mount eliza (near frankston)...which is suprisingly close to the SAU Vic club address thanks for the links to the sites and car audio help much appreciated my dad knows how to drive a manual, so if he is willing i will get lessons off him *edit* also i would like to say this is a great community for skyline or soon-to-be skyline owners, very helpful and welcoming i will be sure to join the Vic Club when i get the car
  8. thanks i will be definatly sure to give them a call are they based in victoria?? thanks for the info on the spray (i thought it would be that price)
  9. yeh i intend to keep the car for a good 5 to 10 years (if it lasts that long, hopefully) regarding to 2), i know you can get a pretty decent one for 1,500 but i want to create a nice looking audio system that maybe in the future (years time etc.) will goto a few car meets/shows etc. im not buying the car for a full performance car, otherwise i would go for the Turbo etc. i love the look of these cars and want to customize the exterior and interior of the car alot. my aim is to make a stylish car with a pretty decent audio system in it. im just wondering the cost of a full body spray (black) as if i can find one for under 10k and is another colour i will snap it up has anyone got any personal experience or suggestsions from brand names for speakers, subwoofers, amps or headunits? thanks
  10. thanks for all the audio advice someonestolecc i would like SQ far more than SPL. I have decided to spend more on the audio system and wait longer for other upgrades (around 2,500 to 3,000 on audio to start with and then work up) i wont be using the car for street rep, i want to make a head turner car (if that makes sense) also i have looked at the car "Let me drive" and i would loveee to buy that car and its exactly what i would want but sadly its a manual and i drive autos (no manual cars in my family so i couldnt learn it... if it was auto then i would snap that thing up faster than a hungry fat man at a buffet... anymore info or advice for the audio and brands that are good (i hear kenwood is very good, also the sony exploder series is good??...wrong??) thanks again for the help when i buy the car i will keep you up to date on all the upgrades
  11. lol i know i have alot to learn but thats why im asking for help liber8_d you said that my budget for buying the car is probably more than you'll need.... how much would you advice on spending, just for the car alone? i will tone down the audio system lol will only get 4 speakers. (what do you suggest) thanks for the help and i know the audio section exhists but i have questions outside of audio such as paint jobs.
  12. Hey everyone, Im selling my car in a few months and im looking at buying a skyline GTS R33 (non-turbo) for ruffly under $15,000 AUS I will have around 19,000 or if im lucky 20,000 to spend on the car overall (includes purchase) I dont want to touch the engine unless its to improve fuel economics or to fix bits, i have already asked about km's (ruffly 450 - 550km's per tank??) i intend to do alot of exterior work (body kits and neons) note: I know they are illegal but u can install a switch to turn them off, use for show-offs or cruising If i cannot find a black skyline R33 GTS (non-turbo) i will repaint it with Jet Black, but i dont know how expensive it is to repaint etc. as i hear there can be double coat etc. for it (im new to the whole custom thing lol the audio system will be the pride and joy of the car and im allowing up to 1,500 for the system (includes install). I have sourced some ideas for it but i have a few questions which are below. Audio Questions 1. I was wondering if its possible to install 6 speakers (2 front, 2 rear doors, 2 in back near the window) or can you only have 4 speakers?? 2. Is it wise to have more than 2 subwoofers? (i was thinking of either 2 x 12" subwoofers in the boot, or if finances are nice then 2 x 12" and 1 x 15") 3. What type of amp will i need for?? (4 channel 400 watt kenwood or sony) i will have more questions later on thanks alot
  13. Hey disturb3d, do you have a stock skyline or have you modified it a bit? because what bonkers has for his skyline seems to be the norm for those engines and models. what fuel do you use bonkers in your skyline/s? thanks
  14. hey im also curious, as im in the market for a skyline but want a fairly decent fuel usage how many km's would an R33 GTS (1993) get per tank? (Non-Turbo) do you run that car on premium unleaded or regular unleaded? thanks
