yes im curious as to what record it actually got, im not doubting that it did, just dont know which one. the worlds most powerful street car belongs to Rod Hadfiled does it not? 3000HP street registered from his 27 odd litre (supercharged from meory) V12... obviously economy wasnt an issue...
-
just watched it before, kinda seems odd putting it up against a jetta and whatever that other american thing was
-
yes one of the videos shows a guy getting hit, the black sedan loses it and the guy tries to run but he gets collected by the car, and goes flying. im not doctor but im damn sure he didnt live
-
the noise.. no idea. but with the car off, u can still put the car in gear without putting the clutch in, its usually a little bit harder, but the synchros are probly just lined up for 3rd n 4th wen u turned the car off

all roads lead to rome, but theres no reason anything should lead here

yeh the arab videos are interesting, tho i dunno if its 'drifting'. they're all front wheel drives carrying alot of speed, with a little handbrake thrown in for good measure, dont get me wrong, im damn sure i couldnt do that like them, and its fun to watch, i just dont htink its drifting. and as for the titles, crazy arab drift should be renamed 'stupid arabs stand on road side while different stupid arabs attempt to lose control of there cars at high speed'. a bit long but much more fitting PS - just saw the one where the guy gets hit, and im sure that killed him, so yeah, my new title is even more fitting!

a mate of mine wrecked his car with no insurance and damaged another car, from memory the court ordered him to pay back thousands at $2 a week for however many years it was(heaps) LOL
-
yeh get the previous owner to do it if possible. you might not know anyone who can help you in this situation, but he might
-
well, this is kinda off topic, but a mate of mine bought a 33 GTS-4 and whenever the doors are open, the hazard lights come on until u close the door.... i always tell him to take it back coz it sh*ts me, but he never does, any ideas what it might be/what wires i should cut?
-
wasnt it called the gt-x or gt-v?
-
yes, very very old, but still good

which workshop did this to your car cefiro? is it some no-name place with people you'd expect to thrash you car, or a well known and respected place with people you'd expect to 'test' your car thoroughly?

yeh i saw one tv where they did a turbo kit like that on sum POS ricer, think it mighta been a civic, there excuse was underbonnet space (might not have been a civic, coz i think the exhaust manifold was on the rear side of the engine). not only would there be massive lag from the length of the cooler pipes etc, but the exhaust will have lost almost all of its heat (from 900 or whatever straight out of the head, to cool enough you can hold your hand over the exhaust tip) and there would be sweet f*ck all thermal expansion and all those wonderful things that actually makes a turbo spool up. leave this one for the civic with full sick neons bro

dont buy ebay turbos, they will die within a week. i dont think i've ever heard of these lasting that long, let alone getting good results. the KKR turbos have been getting alot of attention lately, and they are similarly priced to your first quote.
-
i picked being cut off or not being able to merge, altho i dont really get to angry about specific things like that, the thing that annoys me is just when people are plain stupid, seeing people just do stupid things sh*ts me, altho i'm no perfect driver ether we all make mistakes. for those that hate tailgaters, my cousins has an awesome solution. in the back of his corolla he has a nice big hella spotlight facing rearwards moral of the story, dont tailgate any corollas lol

ahahahah its so funny to see that people are waiting like 4 hours and saying to go at 5am, i went.. last thursday i think, about 7pm and only waited like 20 mins lol i must say tho that i was seriously dissapointed, being a bit of a lardo myself, i can appreciate a good donut, and i was expecting great things from KK, but meh. when fresh n warm, the classic glazed were quite nice, a bit too sweet, but still good, other then that, i like the donut king cinammon ones (wen they're fresh) better.
-
lol u might wanna get back to the shopping center ASAP. i would not want to leave a GT-R there with the keys in it. u might not want to do any damage, like breaking a window, but whats gonna stop some random doing it? breaking one window is nothing if your gettin away with such a car. you've taken all the hard work out of it for the thief!

Putting 20 Inch Rims On Skyline Need Help
VB- replied to Cro_boy_Mario's topic in Exterior & Interior Styling
will 20's fit in the stock 33 guards? -
personally, i'd like to run premium (95) or higher
-
yes, and i believe they are banned in NSW. read my post near the top of this page
-
there has been much speculation as to whether or not the 32 GTS-t is legal or not, but the general rule is thats is legal (the early models were just out, the later ones just in as they were a bit heavier) but i havent heard much about people being done for this in a 32, 33's seem to be a much more popular target for police. as for fuel consumption, no idea, but i'd guess around 400km a tank?

the system that was already in place (125kw per tonne) i think was a good system for its purpose, but the list of restricted cars thing like in NSW is just a load of sh*t. last time i heard about that, u werent aloud to drive the merc C180K, with its nearly 2 tonne mass haveing an awesome 108kw to propell it, smart cars i believe were banned to, with blistering acceleration of 0-100km/h in 11 secs, yet things like S2000's were perfectly legal the list has probly been changed now, but i think even a brand new M3 was legal for a while, probly still is. im hopefully gonna get my Ps in a few months, and this is something i've been watching closely. i personally think these laws aren't gonna make things worse, but they aint gonna get that much better like you think it would. why do i say this, well think about it, im going to get my P's soon and theres nothing i can do to get a reasonably quick car, so what am i to do... eureka! im going to go down to my local honda/yamaha/kawasaki/suzuki dealer, hand over my small sum of money (and by small sum, i mean i couldnt even buy a decent R32 with it, bikes are that cheap), and straight off the showroom floor go out and do 200km/h+, and it'll get there in half the time of a car, with the added bonus of being less stable than a car with none of the safety, which last time i checked, added up to a grand total of being about 20-30 times more likely to be killed. and no, i dont plan on buying a bike myself, but everyone here seems to know how stupid and irresponsible young people are, so theres gonna be no shortage of P platers that do want a bike.

check the for sale section. check carpoint/carsales/trading post. i would probably buy a 32 GT-R here rather than import, as they are gettin farely old now, and it would be worth it to see it in the flesh and get a mechanical check on it to foresee any potential dramas which is inevitable on one, just go find the one with the least issues. PS i know that there are always good ones without problems, and im not saying there a bad car, just alot of em i've seen hav little things wrong with them
