  1. Quick release steering wheel + Alarm. Only way to steal your car is if its towed.
  2. hahah Imaginary dyno runs....
  3. Melbourne University. Easily the best university in Australia. One of the best in the world. Heaps of Skylines in Melbourne.
  4. Exactly... LOL tell your dad he SHOULD be using premium unleaded as well. Besides, it isn't a big difference at the end of the day. Saving those few cents isn't going to make your rich, nor is spending those few cents going to make you poor. That's my moto.
  5. Importers always say a car coming in is the cleanest they've ever imported. Judge for yourself. Personally I'd go the r33. Although I prefer the r32 shape, you can't go past the RB25. I personally didn't like the RB20. Only downside is that it is the most popular import going around at the moment. Check out both cars, get the one in better condition at a better price.
  6. RX7? The s6 shape and onwards are PHAT.
  7. I'd say even less. You can get GTSTs for around 12-13k these days. 9-10k max I'd say.
  8. lol. Moral of the story? Spend money on ANYTHING and it will go.
  9. Price dropppppppp Still open to TRADES.... Try me.
  10. My parents bought me an R33 GTS when i was 16 and I was allowed to buy my first turbo car as soon as i had turned 17, ever since then my parents have used school/uni as in incentive for me. If I had the money, i'd buy em a car of their choice. Why be miser if its within your means? That said, hopefully thats a LONG LONG LONG way away. lol.
  11. 1: Power delivery: Much more linear in the GTR, almost feels like an N/A at times. Ofcourse, the power delivery is much more "push you back in your seat" as well, accelerates hard all the way. 2: 300kW? If you're happy with 300kW, the cheapest turbo upgrade you can get are n1 turbos. Add in supporting mods, you're looking at about 5k. I was quoted this much from my mechanic, with a 10,000km warranty on the work. 3: In terms of dusty 32s there are a few outhere. Just get the car checked out by a mechanic with a brain and you'll be alright. Compression test, check for rust is a must. Try and find one that's already had a rebuild. The Supra track is also a good track to go down. BUT, although you might get the power quicker than you would in a GTR, you won't get it to the ground and that's where the difference lies. The GTR will still be a quicker car. So it depends on what you like. If you prefer RWD action, go the Supra. If you prefer the AWD launch and quicker car, go the GTR.
  12. Way too expensive. GTRs hold their value, but not THAT well. I'm pretty sure you could find an immaculate R32 GTR in the high 20s.
  13. Thanks everyone It's coming off, but its a painfully slow process. I used Meguiars paint cleaner and a few other products. Will take me a while...
  14. Hey guys, My car was parked at my mechanics for a little work, the factory next door burnt down, ash travelled from that factory into the workshop, many cars were completly covered, fortunately mine only had some ash on the rear end, most of it just came off instantly, but there is this stubborn section that not coming off with a cloth, the boys at the workshop had already cleaned up the rest when i got there. (refer to pics) Anybody have any experience here? How can i safely remove it? I'd hate for it to spread, or stain other portions of the car, as my car is white... Thanks in advance, Ali.
  15. Can't you switch it off? I had one in my 32 GTST, could be turned off, when on made this annoying humming sound. AND nice car man. Looks clean.
  16. I have 4 mates that have writtten of their jap imports over the power to weight ratio, 2 r33 GTSTs, 1 180sx (SR20) and an S15. All got paid the entire amount on their policy, all were with just cars.
  17. Interior isn't that bad actually, they even came in leather! They have electric seats standard and the airconditioning unit is also pretty advanced. The actual dash looks a bit old, but other than that, pretty good. It's no worse than r32s or r33s.
  18. ^^^ That's actually pretty good. There isn't much difference between series 1s and 2s, if you can get a s1 in better condition go for it. That said, i've seen PLENTY of s2 R33 manual, turbos go in your price bracket of 15-17k. Just wait for the right one.
  19. High 14s? That's not much slower than stock 33s. Either you can't drive, or he had more mods than you. It's not surprising.....i've always liked MX5s, not as much as RX7s though!

  21. Exactly. Try and buy one that has already had a rebuild.
  22. TT, manual ones are going for at least 20k, early series 1 models. Anything newer costs heaps more. Kinda like GTRs actually. (not looks/perfromance, as in cost of R32 GTRs vs R33 GTRs etc) You'd rather a GTR anyday of the week though....
