I loved the first one. Clocked it and played days and days of multiplayer deathmatch on lan with a few friends at my home. Second one was shit. Hopefully this one will be like the first one with all the present day graphics and physics etc.
Agreed. I loved the 1st one, but hated the 2nd one. Deathmatch was fun on 56k

Anime/Manga
in Japan
ive just finished watching Claymore and Historys strongest disciple.Claymore was unreal.
Loved em both. Claymore was one of those anime that struck me from the typical stuff I've seen. Though I'd say I was kinda disappointed with the ending (at least the manga is still going, but very slowly
). Though I still want more from History's Strongest Disciple Hope theres still more to come from itSome other anime series some of you might like/dislike is:
- Fruits Basket
- Love Hina
- Chobits
- Byousoku 5 Centimeter (don't get the 1 episode one thats 30 mins long, it's in 3 episodes)
- Berserk
- GunGrave
- AIR TV
- Ah! My Goddess
Wangan Midnight is a bit, ummmm, well there is a magical car in it.Doesn't compare much to Initial D. I kinda liked it, but it at least made me appreciate 240z's a little more
-
I'm just taking a guess but it seems the R34 25GT-V owners are all sedans ? Maybe it stands for GT-5door

Not 100% sure about this but I think in NSW you have to have it enclosed in a box.
-
also IMO, even after 17 years i think it still looks damn fine...
hope this is of assistance to you, sorry about the long post but.

Thanks for a top quality post. No need to apologise. Yeah I have to agree with you, the 300zx looks nice. Just recently I've met one of my brother's friend who had one (only 2 seater). First time I got to see one up close and inside. I was gobsmacked. I was able to check it out from the passengers view. He's getting a veilside body kit fitted. Should be done by now. I'll see if I can take it for a spin to see how it handles.
While doing research I did come across the aus300zx forum but didn't sign up. Signed up now and start asking questions (after searching the forum of course
".It might sound like a silly question because these are N/A cars, but which one would have the best performance (in order?) out of the 300zx, R33/R34 N/A's, Supra, DC2 Integra VTi-R, and 5th gen Prelude VTi-R.

i got a custom in mine, everyone said 2.25" and the exhaust guy so i got 2.25.. now everyones saying 2.5?
Yeah people were telling me to get a 2.25" for any real benefits for N/A engines. 2.5" I guess is acceptable but probably would be better on cars with small turbos/ lower boost. 3" for bigger turbos and higher boost. I think anything larger than 2.5" on an N/A would = higher than 90db defect.
I could be wrong though.

White R33 Skyline at Great Western Highway at around 10 pm-ish. Had a black hood and boot, with GTR engraved in the back.

I've never been here but they do a lot of work on Skylines. I've seen them on a few car DVD's and looks good. They specialize in skylines

Anime/Manga
in Japan
I'm in melbourne and the JB hi-fi at southland has a wall of anime.Can anyone tell me how many "stage's" initial D goes for?? I've seen "stage3"....... is there a stage4 ??
Favorite box set at the moment is "Kenshin hamura, wandering swordsman" , a series of samuri X
JB hi-fi is starting to get in "Naruto" now too! yay! (if ya like ninja's check it out)
Yep there is a Stage 4. Just hoping they make a Stage 5.
I like Naruto but not a fan of the English dub, but thats just me though. I'm a fan of Hayao Miyazaki (Lupin III, Nausicaa, Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle, etc).

@ carizma
I'll definitely be checking your site and comparing the prices.
My question is why are you under the new P Plate laws? You've had 5 cars and the laws only came in last July (I think it was)?Have you had 5 cars since then?
They came sometime in July 2005 (NSW) . Wish I motivated myself to go do get my P's. Heavily regret it now.
The first car was scrapped. Got one for cheap, traded. Sold. Bought. Sold. Then Lancer.
My first car was during my L's. I had my Learners when I was 16 but no car to practice on and I'm 21 now and on my reds, going to greens soon. So I've pretty much have had my learners for erm... 4 years LOL, and had to renew the damn thing and do the test again. But during that time I've went through 5 cars.
The only car I miss is the R32. I don't think the Skyline to Lancer was a good pay off
I think I should get a newer car, so I think I'm gonna be scraping the 300ZX but it's still an option. Skyline top priority then Supra. Or maybe even one of the Honda VTi-R's since I've heard VTEC is awesomo.
Thanks for the help. Btw does anyone have any experiences with Honda VTi-R's and your thoughts about them?

Maybe we should move this to "Game Discussions" instead.
I've played it too, and been a huge fan since PES4 ( always preferred FIFA for a long time
). Since then I've been addicted to the game. PES 2008 I've seen some improvements, but nothing major. I like the new option of putting your own face there. Also I find it easy to create logos and shirts to make them official, but I think I'd wait till someone releases the full kits.Oh and Arsenal's my favourite team and have been a supporter for years.

i remember reading somewhere that.. if the car he is driving is the only car being registered at the place his living.. then legally his allowed to drive it even though its high powered?
you mean this? ( NSW Licensing P-Plate rules )
The principal family vehicle is a moderate-performance turbo/supercharged engine vehicle.I think you'd still need to pass this though, but not sure.
You can prove direct ownership of a prohibited vehicle prior to the start of the scheme or before an overseas/interstate licence transfer.For more info please visit: http://www.rta.nsw.gov.au/licensing/gettin...ons.html?llid=4

My list so far, from top to bottom (top being best
).TOP 3
1. Skyline R33 GTS N/A ( R34 if i'm lucky ) - [ Gotta join the skyline group again
]2. Toyota Supra N/A
3. 300ZX 2+2 N/A
Which of these cars do you think will have the best performance (or best engine?) Soon when I get the time I'll start test driving these cars and start comparing.

PES 2008 FTW! Tried Fifa 08 on PC at a friends house, wow that sucked hard. Ported from the PS2 instead of the next gen system. Also playing some Football Manager 2008.
Just gotta finish the story in Half Life 2: Episode 2.

Is your car turbo or non-turbo ?
Anyway I've done my full exhaust system at liverpool exhaust but it wasn't for my skyline. http://www.liverpoolexhaust.com.au/
They do custom mandrel bent exhaust systems. I've seen 2 GTR's at this place on the one day so it's probably worth having a look and giving them a call.
-
The only stick these guys will be driving is the one owned by BUTCH. Sorry I just had to make a lame joke.
oh what the heck, one more
They drive stick. Now stick drives them.
On a serious note I'm glad they got caught and getting what they deserved. Glad to hear your mate's alright
-
Not too bad. Just need to make sure you don't leave any of the white background when you cut-out the R35 (Back of the car). Keep it up! Hope to see more from you.

I like the look of the Aristos but I think NSW P-Plate laws won't allow them cause they're turbo'd?
As for the looks department anything which looks sorta sporty is more my style. The ones I've listed and the mention of the Supra I'm more than happy with. People either like or dislike the looks of these cars, but I'm not too picky. I'd say performance is important too even though they are N/A cars.
I'm not looking for something to drift in(at the moment). I'm just looking for a car that has enough power in a straight, but someday would like to take it to the track (I know it's asking alot for 16k budget
).Everyone will have their own opinion but every opinion counts.
Oh and I'd prefer if the car was a manual. -
Probably for a few months, but not that long. I'd say less than 3 months (unless I can land myself a job there
). I'll check the dates to see which is a good time to go and better soon take advantage of the stronger aussie dollar.Yeah I love sight seeing. I love Japan's country, people, food and culture. It has always fascinated me. I'd definitely check out Hiroshima cause I remember doing a paper on this back in high school about the war. It might sound really geeky or call me an Otaku but I wanna check out Akihabara. Gonna get me some computer parts while I'm there. Would also love to go to Kyoto and see some of the old buildings.
If I can I hope to see some street and track drifting, and if possible to try out drifting myself while I'm there. Theres so many things on my want to do list, but I just can't think of any right now
.Oh I'd also check out Harajuku. See if I can recognize any anime characters LOL :laughing-smiley-014:

From what my friends have told me it's best to know someone in Japan. They can show you around and meet new people, and help with the language barrier.
Other than the obvious, start learning Japanese if you haven't done so already. I've only been doing it for a few months and plan on going late next year.

Need help choosing car. Felt I needed to start a new thread as the other one was a year old. Current budget is around $15-16k tops for just the car. I'm 21 stuck under the NSW P-plate laws of no turbos, supercharged or V8+ cars. I've had a few cars in the past, changed because of circumstances (plus wanting another car).
Went from:
- 89' Toyota Camry > 89' Honda Legend > 2001' Kia Rio > 92' Nissan Skyline R32 GTS > 97' Mitsibushi Lancer CE (Current)
Honestly I miss my Skyline (even if it was N/A). Currently looking at these cars, tell me what are your opinions and please feel free to list any other cars. Looks are somewhat important but I also like my car to have some power behind it (N/A Power
).- Nissan Skyline R33 GTS
- Nissan 300ZX 2+2
- Ford Falcon BA XT/Futura
- Honda Prelude VTi-R 5th Gen
- Honda Integra VTi-R DC2

Yeah Japan looks an awesome place to visit. Still learning my Japanese but once I'm fluent enough I'll head over there. Keep us updated on the pics, really interesting to see how other countries are like
and to see all the beautiful women over there in Japan P.S. Now I see why they call you the beer baron. How many beers did you drink over there ?!
). Though I still want more from History's Strongest Disciple 
Hope theres still more to come from it

'Fujiwara Tofu Shop' I think. In the brackets has something to do with delivery? Someone confirm this though
For some odd reason I tend to say APA APA alot while I do things that require some effort.
