hey mate i got my R33 gtst series 2 1997 model only at the start of december last year. now i been driving since i was 12 bush bashers and all that and used to have alot of mates with alot of high powered cars. Fair enough im a bit of an odity in that i can adjust to any car in an extremely short space of time. but that said i went from driving an N/A s13 sr20 to my R33. the difference is unreal now bare in mind all i have extra on mine is exhaust, pod , front mount and coilovers and 17 advanti racing wheels. now i dunno if u wrote ur old fwds off in the wet or the dry but even a relatively stock line like mine is rather tail happy in the wet so imagine what a 300kw example would be like. as everybody says from the sounds of ur driving history get a stocker get a feel for the car and a respect for the power and engineering that is behind it before u go messing with everything there is nothing worse than having no clue how to handle the power and it ends up u have just paid 35k to kill urself or survive with a disability and shit load of debt. just my 2c.

i used to work security in a couple of shopping centres. most usually have at least a few carparks that are on camera. maybe find out where they would be at the centre u work at and park there. if the security guys there are ok to just ask them to keep an eye out for u when they patrol. i used to get those kinda requests all the time so i did. i mean it may not work for u but as i said its worth a try

yeah but what they dont realise is the amount of people buyin shit box dailys and building there other cars until they are liscensed to drive it they are gonna be goin from no power to high modded yeah they will have driving experience but wont have the gradual progression in power the way they have been in the past. just my 2c

i gotta agree yer there are a fair few C*nt cops out there but they are not all that bad. when i had my silvia i did a fair few silly things and they just slapped me on the wrist and told me to drive safely for the rest of my trip. and about 2 weeks ago i hadnt noticed the cop 2 lanes over from me on beaudesert road when i not flat strapped but gave it a fair boot in the skyline to the speed limit. and at the next set of lights the cops were next to me leaned out and just said pretty quick car and asked what i had done. now the only mechanical mods i got mind u are the intercooler jazma exhaust and a pod filter. other than that its just got gtr carbonfibre wing , and front bar, 17's and coilovers. cops just commented on it being pretty quick they expected more work to be done said it looked like a nice car and left me be. so i would really say its down to the cops as an individual. could juts be alot of cops want/wanted imports but couldnt afford them for some reason or another. but i know motorbike cops are the worst so keep an eye out for them mainly.

hello all. im new to the forum and only had my skyline for 2 weeks now. its a white 97 series2. just got basic mods like exhaust ,cooler, coilovers and a timer. upgraded to this from my old n/a S13. i was gonna put a 25 motor in it but figured skylines a better car all round so just bought one. plus for some odd reason i swear i get more ks out of a tank than i did wit the s13. neways thats enough from me hope to meet you all on a cruise fairly soon. im often found cruising almost the entire south brisbane lol i like driving what can i say.
