  1. welcome to the forums check the events section, there's always something going on. there's also the club meets and events you can attend (mostly track days and social meets).
  2. had a drive of a couple of cars we installed the copies of my kit on... and they're not exactly what you'd call streetable. at the end of the day if I put the kit on my car I wouldn't be able to thrash it around like I do now, and I'd hate to be forced to baby it around for fear of ruining it. Probably OK for a show car that'll sit n look pretty or a drift car with a workshop/sponsor backing that can afford to throw it around... but for me the impracticality kinda won in the end.
  3. no... not really. no points for you.
  4. i just got home... it can wait.
  5. that's 3 swift kicks to the nuts already poite. more to come.
  6. i won stage 4 gear for my poopra (when you take on the drag king... or queen... whatever). Did a 1350m wheelie and 7.12 R35 GTR with stage 4 suspension/tyres/wheels and stage 3 engine drives like its on rails and accelerates like a dog with deep heat on its testicles.
  7. wtf? do you sit when you pee too?
  8. undercover anti street drifting cop car flanked on sides by TMU. watch out for this car, they use it to infiltrate street drifts then swoop in with the others. if you see the driver, give him the finger, swear at him and punch him on the cock. true story.
  9. 350Z's are huge in the US, cos the Z33, the G35 and the RX8 are the only decent RWD japanese sports cars they have available to em atm. we're kinda spoilt for choice with 2000 - 2002 model R34's, RX7's, S15's, Supra's etc. I doubt the 350Z revolution will hit Australia as hard as it has hit the US, where its now being used for circuit, street, rice, drift and showpony use. That said there's heeeaps of parts from the US and japan available. 350Z's are oddball in japan... there's lots of parts and support, and lots of tuner built demo cars, but hardly any that are built up on the streets.
  10. Just finished cleaning my kit and did a mock assembly for some photos to put up on ebay... thought I'd share em wtih you.
  11. ahem... consider your rear end buffed
  12. did you spin? looks worse than it is... can be repaired though, we've fixed up ones more banged up than that. Bring it down to driftline if you need a quote.
  13. i'd suggest mark hocking, but I'm not sure if he'd be willing to come up to the tokyo area to accompany you. send him an email and try your luck I guess. As Richard posted above, they can waste all day with one person and make a commission on one car, or they can make money on multiple cars by sticking to routine... so finding one to help you can be a bit tricky. If you're simply after buying a car thru dealers in japan, I'm sure one of our forum members in japan like Laurence or Streeter could help you do some negotiation.
  14. the last stagea cruise I went to had a decent turnout: *runs*
  15. Wanting to see every car that's available to you kind of works against your favour in that the best car for you could be anywhere in japan... its kind of like someone wanting to inspect every single ford falcon in Australia before buying one. What area of japan are you going to be in? That might help narrow down your options so you can personally inspect them.
  16. its been whored around enough it should be common knowledge by now.
  17. talk to any of the following: Japco Wholesalers +61 8 8347 3599 Adelaide Japanese Dismantlers +61 8 8369 1156 http://www.adelaidejap.com.au and D1 Garage http://www.d1garage.com They all bring in containers regularly to adelaide from Japan, and if you're nice to them and share part of the cost I'm sure they'll be willing to offer you some space in their next shipment. Your best bet is having one of the companies who brings in parts regularly ship it for you, or ship using a partially full container load, where you rent space in a container with others like you, and together you make up a full container load. Kiwi specialise in roll on roll off and fully packed containers, so might not be of much help.
  18. lol to be honest i think geoff's the kind of guy that the mob up in qld needs to keep em in line and focussed on the club instead of personal agenda's.
  19. garage zenitani... they do some awesome work.
  20. not at all... have a flick thru this blog and you'll see why that's kinda expected: http://myqcs.blogspot.com
  21. nice... we usually go to the kebab shop on brunswick st if we're in the area... will make sure we come to your stall in the future please tell me you do hotdogs with kransky's instead of frankfurts as well... there's a place on little collins st that does what I've nicknamed the "heartattack hot dog" with a kransky, crispy bacon, onions, cheese, chilli and bbq sauce. sooo f**kin good... no other place I know does it. anywho... google map for your stall
  22. oh yeah... eug is the new mod as of.... now.
  23. some poor sod made you their leader? oh dear. heads will roll.
