  1. The 996 911 is always a rewarding car. Great handling and braking but a little under powered (around 190- 200rwkw for an early C2) compared to our usual lightly modified skylines. Not that an average driver would complain about it on the race track but, under powered nevertheless for its status as the iconic performance car. Exceptions are the Turbo models and GT variants, which I assume would be out your price range even for an used example. A Boxster S would still be a better car than the Z4 coupe in terms of both handling and performance, unless we are talking about the Z4 M coupe. However, a Cayman S is always more special and a better all-rounder. I would not recommend a RS6 if you are after a performance car. The previous generation RS6 was too heavy and was only fast in a straight line. An E39 BMW M5 would be a better choice assuming you want a family car that is also capable on the race track. The E46 BMW M3 is the pick of the bunch in my opinion. Great all round car, comfortable enough for daily usage and is a proven weapon on the race track. If you do intend to track the car, make sure you upgrade the single piston brakes as its the only area of weakness for the M3. Again might be slightly underpowered for your liking but the glorious sound track of the engine more than enough makes up for it. Cheers
  2. I could sell you my factory front bar for less than $300. Same color and style as yours. in perfect condition. If you are interested just pm me.
  3. Yes there is apparently called R34 GT-R (IMO). The one that superseded R33 GT-R (In Nissan's Opinion). I love democracy BTW
  4. Actually, thats the difference between have taste and have NO taste. R34 too boxy? R33 = big fat boat
  5. The R34 is way better for everyday use. Get the S15 if you are into drift or circuit racing.
  6. the C pillar looks to be genuine r34 item.
  7. This is true. People always say how tunable RB series engines are, but I am yet to see a standard RB25DET make 300rwkw reliably. I remember Bavaria Motorsport or someone had an old 5 series with a turbo charged beemer 3.0l straight six which made 350rwkw in stock form. And the engine was never designed to have a turbo on it.
  8. I probably would go with the exige for a change, GTRs are too common in Sydney nowadays. Get a base model exige stick in a S2000 engine, now you've got something really unique.
  9. Thats cheap for S03. Can I ask which dealer is it?

  11. could it be this
  12. not this one?
  13. no frameless windows? civic coupe?
  14. Some nice pictures of the car in subject.
  15. Hey Daniel, My Bilstein shocks arrived within 5 working days of placing the order. Sway bars took a little longer coz whiteline had to make them fresh, received 2 weeks later. Best thing about this group buy is SK always keeps you updated and very prompt with pm replies. Cheers
  16. Yep. Micheal Schumacher's last race. Bad luck for Ferrari once again. Alonso had some gay luck. Hamilton shouldve been allowed to race him in the later stages of the race, he had the pace! Screw team orders.
  17. Got my kit installed on Friday. Excellent products! Top service from Sydneykid! Just want to confirm something with other GTT owners. After install Bilsterin shocks on the lowest setting (3 circlips down or all the way down) with factory springs on all four corners, the front end of the car looks lower than the rear. Measuring by eye there are narrower gaps between the front wheels and guards than rears. Is this normal? I though factory GTT is lower at the rear? Cheers
  18. Thanks for sharing, maybe I should stick to the Exedy light flywheel thats already in the car. Not sure of its material though, only says "lightweight aluminium and alloy metal" on their website. How does it compare to a billet steel one?
  19. The problem is not every "visual inspector" or policemen that pulls you over would be retard. If the police gets a metal wire into your rear end and find it straight though, you're busted. They wouldn't care if your car passes emissions or not.
  20. Obviously you want all fours be the same being an AWD car. Unless of course you want to make it rear wheel drive. Yeah all 17x9 would be ideal, go 10inch width if you have monster power.
