  1. yeah, my first one was midnight purple, current one is the blue in my sig.
  2. Yeah, I miss that car =( was immaculate!
  3. Yeah there's a few around or all types. Some nice GTR's. We used to do regular trips out to Jims place for BBQ etc. Wow, it looks fully Blue in that pick! Here's my old one Been in town long? Get out to the drags when they are on next and you'll meet some great people.
  4. Hey, welcome to Silly Asses United!! Nice choice of car mate, not many Blue ones around (compared the the black/white/silver) I Grew up in Alice, been south for a few years now though. There's a few guys that drop in here occasionally.. very occasionally. You should get my 'Cruise Alice' thread pumping again =)

    Legality

    Yes, i thought so too. But people still want to do it for some reason.. I guess for them its not about the money or the legalities its about the project, and they can then complain about the whole process and unwanted attention.

    Legality

    still need to meet the requirements and have it all approved. converting NA to turbo you need to prove the car is still safe and can control the extra power.
  9. The terms 'speeding' and 'rapid acceleration' are very difficult as they are dependent on perspective. Grandma that take a minute to get from 0-60km has a different view as say us, or any variant in between. Does 'speeding' mean going over the posted limit? or some other interpretation. If the circumstance you mention, time/conditions/traffic/vision/etc all provide a safer environment (than peak hour traffic in the rain), then yes it is safer to do so. Is driving ever 'safe' at all? is another question........ depends on opinion and perspective. Now, assuming you have the ability then it should be safe to accelerate fast, also assuming your not dumping the clutch and doing fishies, etc which is not in discussion here. yet.... That sort of 'reckless' (for lack of a better word) increases the risk greatly. But simply making the car do the same thing at a faster pace and changing gears later is hardly dangerous in my opinion. I'm 38.
  10. Knuckle sandwich
  11. yeah only do pod if you want to change the induction sound and the look under the hood. cops love to see pods because it means mods to them which means defect potential.. No performance gain, just a personal styling thing. so your choice to do it or not, don't let anyone tell you one way or the other =) K&N also do good pods. Same with cold air intake piping, very little gain, and not usually noticeable,(maybe more at high power), so again only a personal choice. I don't 'know' about vic law, but not likely to be an issue as its not really part of the intake system, only directs air to flow into the engine bay. However, the above CAI requires you to use a FMIC which does not return through the stock holes, which frees up the space. The heat shield is less a heat shield and more about looks again, and keeping things tidy. Also looks better for police, and helps keep the pod secure which is one of their problems with them. Welcome to the world of import modding! You have many many many more hours/days/months of searching and reading to do, so learn to use the search functions and get comfy =)
  12. Hey Barra, let us know if this has been collected yet. If not I'll pick it up tomorrow =) cheers
