  1. Anyone know this car? Care to shed some light about it's history and potential problems? Is the owner on SAU?
  2. How wide are your wheels?
  3. ban.
  4. You don't need a metal head gasket for 290rwkw... Just get the tuning right.
  5. Rule number 1 bitchtits
  6. Geez... So much controversy over where to go for dinner I don't really care, both restaurants are great, and I want to goto both of them. Personally I think that you have to add both R&R votes together, as surely the voting is for WHAT you want to eat this month, and the WHERE part is just secondary? Driving a bit won't hurt you, we're a car club ffs!! It seems to me that the Thai Orchid crowd is very passionate about eating there this month, so if that's what gets decided, I don't mind. But I'm going to stay out of the organisation and booking of this dinner... Too much drama
  7. Nah, sorry... I only know of smash repairers that are good with R32s and R33s...
  8. This thread is getting very hypocritical. I agree with Buster, 99% of you guys posting can't point out people like Mr. Exvitermini for doing Nasho runs, when it is an activity that you yourself have participated in. I know I have. I'm not pointing fingers and trying to shame others, because I know I'm just as guilty the next person of past misconduct on our roads. The thing is, I can appreciate that I was sent out onto our roads with minimal driver training from the government, and no appreciation of what havoc I could so easily cause in this 1.5 tonne block of metal I was now in charge of. In hindsight, I understand that it was my ATTITUDE, that caused me to hit unbelievable speeds (you wouldn't believe me if I told you) on our roads when I was a young kid. I was just lucky that those little adventures didn't end in tragedy, and I think that is in part luck, and in part because of my experiences on the racetrack that taught me the limits of my car and it's driver, me. The only way to stop this carnage isn't to point the finger at other people and say "BUT THEY DO IT TOO!!!!"... Instead, we have to target future generations and teach them properly in the first place, BEFORE giving them the keys to the car.
  9. Got the email! Thanks Adam
  10. Thanks guys
  11. Right, okay... That's pretty much exactly what I've been saying as well. Good-o.
  12. No, but does that preclude trying to change the attitude of FUTURE drivers before the get on the road? Or should we just give up, throw our hands in the air and admit defeat? Or should we try and change the attitudes of young drivers so they don't develop into the tail-gating menaces you're talking about? No-one in this thread has tried to address changing old, seasoned drivers and trying to break them of their bad habits. The proposal of increased licencing scrutiny and driver education/training is aimed at the next generation of drivers. Not the current. No, you cannot completely stop all stupid behaviour. But you can try and reduce it. You go ahead and continue to sit on your hands and claim that it's too hard, but I feel that by educating kids BEFORE they get their licences, we can make a difference in driver attitude in the future.
  13. Well... A budget is a budget. Not everyone has $30k to spend on a car. If you want to give him $8000 so he doesn't have to buy "crap", then feel free to PM me Thanks for the link.
  14. Adam, did you get my email? Still no reply from you Can someone please post pics? Especially of the 28%?
  15. It was in an old HPI Magazine, says the owner is Gary Lee? Is he on these forums? Does he still have the car? Does he want to sell it?
  16. So what you're saying is that all 5 witnesses got it wrong and have it out to get him because he drives a skyline???? :uhh:
