Stripes don't make 'em a Nismo

Yep, only 1 first last night. Meh, waddya do? and you only "won" 2. We handed you the third out of driver(s) error. No need to tanti because you couldn't win (or get remotely close) in the karts (the only vehicles we were all on a level playing field in). A little more practice and I'm sure you will be able to control one That last race was boring but frustratingly funny. 24km. 99% straight. Rain.... won't be playing that track again. Next time, go-karts at De La Sarthe in the rain and dark lol (kidding, unless you want an exercise in frustration and boredom)

^Haha, aah yes, Noble Park. The suburb that nobody would bat an eyelid if it was wiped out. btw, did you hear that Robert Doyle mentioned Noble Park as a possible place if Albert Park were to lose the F1 GP? And this guys is Melbourne's mayor?

^ That's a damn nice car... if only I didn't wast my money on the Saleen S7 and Speed 12... oh well.

Yeah, definitely need to get about 10 on at the same time. Competition? I believe you only "won" 2 races last night mate Hoping that Chris can get his internet connection sorted for the next go-around

You can always buy a Nismo bodykit at a later date... and nicer wheels

Priced high 'cause it looks nice. A few guys here that own M35's and used to own M35's have been out to look at it and all said that it looks quite rough. I'd like to see it, but be stuffed flying up to Sydney to do so. Maybe ask zei20l and Bise-bee what they thought of it. EDIT: Oh yeah, that isn't an M35 Nismo exhaust. Looks more Kakimoto or Blitz to me. Aaron, here is your link http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars/dealer/details.aspx?Cr=7&R=9871689&keywords=&trecs=99&__sid=12DDC1725C97&__Ns=pCar_YearMade_Int32|1||pCar_RankSort_Int32|1||pCar_PriceSort_Decimal|0&__Qpb=true&tsrc=allcarhome&__Nne=15&seot=1&__N=1216%201246%201247%201252%201282%204294963846%204294960181&silo=1011

NISMO options include Body kit Steering wheel Instrument cluster (speedo etc) Gauge cluster (Boost, torque, battery - all white) Suspension (S-Tunes) Dump pipe Cat-back exhaust ECU Wheels (LMgt4 for 2001-2004 and LMX5 for 2005+) Air filter I know I am missing more, but stuffed if I can remember That one on Carsales is NOT a "Nismo" M35. It has a Nismo kit, steering wheel and wheels (maybe suspension), but the M35 DID come as a complete optioned car from Nismo if you wanted, but it wasn't plated any differently.

Mate, I grew up in the area... You'll get no arguments from me about Frankston and the "standout" residents Hell, sometimes that "eyecatcher" might start screaming at her imaginary friend that she just bought a coffee for and told to "Sit DOWN and drink your fkn COFEEEEEE!" lol All I'm saying is that there are more nice patches in the Frankston area than there are in the Dandenong area.

Oh, I do (only go there for Nissan bits) You really get a different perspective of a place when you have to visit it months after moving to a nicer place Still, better Frankston than Dandenong.

Never said that... but I do prefer from Mornington down to Sorento for some nice eye candy in the summer :w00t:

I used to work in the City, so yes, I know what you are talking about.

yep

^ No appreciation for Nature Damn concrete jungle residents

The grill for sale is for the Nissan M35 Stagea. I believe you are referring to the Infinity M35 (Nissan Y50 Fuga) Maybe try Yahoo Auctions and search under "Y50"

Picked up a new tyre from Tyrepower Frankston. When I dropped off the punctured one the tyre guy said "is that for the Volvo?". "Nah, It's a Nissan" I said laughing. I think he apologised 5 times in the space of 30 seconds! Anyway, when I went to pick it up, the older guy there comes out, looks over my shoulder and says "Oh, is this the one for the Stagea?" "Yep" (somewhat astonished that he knew what my car was) "Yeah, there are quite a few getting around here, well not your one, the older model... the one that looks like a Camry from the back" "Yeah that's the one" (laughing) "What are you laughing at? Yours looks like a Volvo from the back!" "Yep" (laughing harder) The laughing stopped when I got the invoice for the tyre though

Cool. Yeah, I know the ambience thing... but surely you could fit in a nice solo (think Dave Gilmore type of "solo") in there? Always a place for a guitar solo

lol @ Craig's mental telepathy

Maybe your solo's aren't that complex Tom? Can't wait to hear the new stuff. I still want to hear some more of your old Metal stuff mate

^ Perfect timing, thanks Dale (was just looking at these yesterday!)

One bloody whinging POM!! but you forgot the "Shit... FOOK, FOOK.... Aaah FOOK!!" when he spun and hit the wall. Repeatedly. Regardless of vehicle/track. And we all loved it, which is why I made Rob a "friend"

Jeez, how hard is it to charge a battery before you play? Nice to see your GT350 out there though (btw, I usually do a 10min practice prior to the race so everyone can pick their cars, set 'em up and get familiar with the track - was thinking about setting up a 30 lap race at De Sarthe with varying conditions next time, could make things interesting... Maybe Sunday evening? Oh, and karts in the rain are certainly interesting and frustratingly funny) Wednesday night mate, remember? You would have received a txt while at a BBQ in the arvo (as we all were )

Yep, very true. Skyline Crossover

Yep, tailgaters are asking for trouble, I agree but why would you pull into the right lane to overtake at a couple kph faster when there is obviously a faster car coming up in the right hand lane? Seems quite irresponsible to me.

Had my wife's young cousin stay for a couple of nights over Australia Day holiday. First thing he said was "Hi", quickly followed by "Nice Volvo". Ignorant little bugger. But he made it all up to me when I was playing GT5 against my mate who was driving his dark blue V35 GT-8 (he owns one so needed to buy it). "Why is that guy driving a Tiida?" he asked, just loud enough for my mate to hear it through his headset which sent him crazy! Needless to say, my mate now drives a Tiida It's nice to have some ammo that trumps the "Volvo" comments.
