  1. Valet switch is much like a valet key... it won't let people enter the glovebox or boot. So when a valet parks your car, they can start it, drive it, but not swipe anything in your boot and glovebox. (prolly not applicable for Skylines... no lock on the glovebox) since when does a skyline not have a lock on the glovebox, mine does?r33 96 na HMmmmm maybe its an aftermarket lock hehe
  2. seems like everyone cant stop talking about blowies gobbies head jobs WOOoo blowies WOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooo come on 3rd page!
  3. i dont know what to think of it i spose anything looks better then a focus
  4. yeah whats the golf engine? turbo ?
  5. spose it depends on how much you got to spend too! r33's are great for modding and a hell of alot cheaper then an s15 if you spent the money on the r33 that you would have saved from getting an s15 you would be able to rip 99% of cars on the road however r33's are older? meh hard choice i guess. have you looked into rx7's supras and so on? if you dont have much money try going for an old school silvia they are really cheap and arnt bad with performance.
  6. im not a fan of the bugatti i would rather the viper twin turbo, that thing is f**king mental!!!! 410.4kmph top speed GAMEOVER http://www.supercars.net/cars/3241.html i spose if you had a bugatti you would have every kind of skyline known to man so there is no point comparing a car that none of us would even be able to sit in let alone drive
  7. i remember when the first shots of this new holden were released someone on here said "dont knock it till you actualy see it in real life because it looks pretty hot" well to whoever that person is, THEY ARE EVEN WORSE IN REAL LIFE, worst sedan i have seen come out of holden in along time ..........i dunno if its just me but for 1 billion dallars i think they should have come up with something a little more original. cant wait for the new fords
  8. iv always wanted a 67 fastback f**k those things are hot oh and welcome to the forum
  9. likewise man, im looking foward to replies to this topic as my na needs some cheap beef
  10. i hate sony headecks even if they have a slight power advantage THEY ARE SOOOOO UGLY!! sound aint bad but yuk!. not a fan of alpine because just about every alpine unit looks the same plus my old alpine headunit didnt have a very long life despite its $800 price tag.
  11. il try not to drain on but yeah r33's especialy series 1 are getting old its a shame nissan didnt make an r35 to continue the legend. however most still would rip a new wrx or heavy v8 super tank and they still manage to turn heads to the legions of fans young and old even if stock. btw isnt a house deposit 10%??..... 25,000 sounds more realistic? however i could be wrong as i am not yet in the market for a house. for what its worth i drive a 96 r33 series 2 auto na (no im not a girl) i got it 4 months ago and payed $11,000 it has 94,000k's and got itfrom a car yard its in almost perfect condition apart from the a stone chip or 2 turbo manual s2's were going for 13,500+
  12. looks like a smart roadster X lotus elise.....not bad
  13. holden sucks....cant be botherd going on about it, where do i begin and where do i stop?
  14. ^ ^ ^ well said. people get caught up with the "untouchable coolness syndrome" when getting a new car sadly stupid things take priority....poor bugger
  15. i wish i had broadband so i could watch that vid,...damn im poor!!!@
  16. i think there is a d.i.y that shows you how to completely pull out the parcel shelf and replace it with mdf, the guy did a good job on it too but there is alot of f**king around involved. as for speaker brands....MMMMMMmmmm soundstream/mb quart make some good stuff
  17. i thought id better ask what usualy wears out on skylines and what would need replacing from your experiances? i have a stock non turbo 96 r33 it was imported around the start of the year and since then i havent had it serviced so it might be a good idea. its done just over 100,000kms. ...i think the shocks need replacing as going over a speed bump at 15km/h makes a strange noise and it rocks like a see-sore, no idea about engine parts. any info would be great. parts/price :domokun: f**k that icon is cool
  18. an mx5 turbo with a few mods would be a blast
  19. i think they look shit too, i seen them for sale on ebay and they look like super rice to me. the stock rear lights look great i think the only differences in series 2 are: more agressive bonnet body kit with foggies color coded front grill front lights/better reflectors/slimmer larger spoiler not that ugly thin one that sits just over the bonnet fabric type on the seats indented line on either side of the roof. ........ im not sure about those last 2 things.
  20. looks like a hunk of shit i want to set it on fire and beat it out with a chain maybe then the styling will be a little more unique
  21. sorry to drain on about a topic that has been covered 500 times a year but im thinking about just cars car insurance? im having alot of trouble finding other companies that insure imported cars!!
  22. wow that picture of the hsv with the bodykit looks like an older tickford style from the te50 or whatever the hell it was called i hate holdens...they would look SOOOO much better if the badge was a chev =)
  23. it funnier then my pic, hey maybe we should have a comp on who has the best avatar or has this been done already? oh yeah fords are ok just so im not "highjacking this thread"
  24. make sure you check out broadmedows/frankston station great tourist attractions both in their own right. ......and maybe mt dandy,rye and great ocean road they make good cruising destinations, oh and chapel st re! ITS FULLY SICK
  25. i have a graze across front left side of bumper f**k there are so many kinds of white for touch up paint i almost fell over i have an r33 s2 and yes ITS IS WHITE! QM1 or QMI is the paint code and aparently its just "white" just wondering has anyone used touch up paint before. i dont just want to spray it on if its not going to match i got no idea what to do. the mark is about 10 cm by 1 cm at the widest point, how much would it cost to get it done by the pros? all ideas welcome
