  1. Well I tried it. But it is 12c more than normal petrol where as the ultimate is 10c more... So unless I get something like 700kms to the tank I dont know if I can justify the extra expence. (got 658kms to the last tank, and have a photo to prove it )
  2. Ahhh no. Bugatti also brought out a more powerful version. 1250hp or something. Thing is the Bugatti is the 'ultimate' car. Its got awd, its still quite driveable has A/C all leather, nice pretty interior, stereo etc. FACTORY WARRENTY!!! you just wont get the same with a skyline. Sure you can make it fast. That and it wont do 400kmh.
  3. I've noticed its been out at pretty much every caltex servo. On some info (proper testing) I read a while ago the vortex 98 was by far and away the better fuel to use. But as also noted on the testing is that not all fuel is made in the state its sold in. So I guess transport delays, longer in the heat etc could affect its performance. So the question is, has anyone tried it. Is it any better than ultimate or optimax?
  4. Dude tow it. Little Nisemo boy is right.
  5. Without going over board... I think it needs a name change for 1. Its still skyline based, but the whole SAu site is really more than that now. So I feel maybe the cruise name should grow with its members. Bit like a GTR cruise... Now just guessing here nothing is confirmed or denied. But a few reasons why Erin might (I do stress might) want SAu to come up with a new name (other than the above). For starters we had the chairity attached to it, which was a chairity Erin choose for her reasons. 2nd was the organiseation behind it. They did 3 scouting runs, did a map up, including how many kms to the next intersection, did the best job posible to get everyone attending one of the said maps. Organised pleanty of food and drinks, even if this meant her not having her car there. Even when the same drive was used a scouting run was still done to make sure there were no changes to the roads etc. So as we can all quite clearly see a lot of time, effort, organiseation and her own money (ie petrol, paper, etc) was put in. Maybe one reason is she doesnt want it stuffed up by someone else doing a half arsed job in compairson, not saying thats going to happen... but yeah. Then its something she came up with, I see what the rest of you are saying by its not hers rah rah. But to some degree it is. Sure if we didnt turn up it wouldnt have been what it was, but without Erin it would have been nothing, and nothing we would look forward to the next year etc. But Im sure if Erin comes on and wishes to reply she will give her reasons. So maybe we respect Erins wishes and give it a new ORGINAL name, that reflects the cruise a bit better. Say maybe SAUQLDS ANNUAL *insert chairty name* CHAIRTY RUN!
  6. I have Lucas all round on my cefiro atm (r32 brakes) and I really quite like them. Im not sure of the range they are tho. But not too dusty, pull up nice, dont really seem to fade (haven't had them on a track yet so no real chance to test them).
  7. Looking at it more closely it looks pretty good I think, lines flow pretty good. Other than that back bit above the light, thats a bit messed up with pannel joints. Seats look nice and comfy for the average person whos going to buy these. If its true about the braking then they pull up bloody fast. Stereo I dunno about, I think 11 speakers is over kill if they were to do a true premium sound like the Audi A8 or something, but hey most people again wont know what its meant to be like, so they will think its cool. Really end of the day doesnt matter cause they cant make anymore atm can they!
  8. http://www.eclipse-web.com.au/avx/index.html http://www.eclipse-web.com.au/avx/index_avx5000.htm got the gear.
  9. Well I say this has gone on far enough. Mr gts25t4door Chris seems to of won his bet many times over. So I think its time for him to get his money and shout us all a drink for our hard efforts!
  10. But, isnt this an event... for our beloved events section
  11. Yes, copy around them. I never liked stock floor matts carpet, so Id buy my own carpet, and with a template make some nice ones. Maybe in a nice plush red wool carpet...
  12. Still, looks a WHOLE lot better than the new camarys...
  13. When minis become small again I guess...
  14. Okelys, with the frameless bottom, and the anti glare coating, After MBF tho they are only $450 After 2 hours and 3 glasses shops they were the only ones that felt comfortable and were narrow enough for my face.
  15. RB20DET + CA31 + RED PAINT = Better
  16. How much money, and whats in it for me? And yes, some single chicks (girls...) do drive skylines. Not many, and no they probably wont sleep with your mate anyway. He is best to stay your friend if he wants skyline time
  17. Dan wins hands down. Thats tops. Everyone else is just being a try hard, including Subi, Audi, and BMW. When car ads become like election advertising...
  18. Tops only 2 days!
  19. Hehehe nice one Col! Stick it to 'em!
  20. I meant suspension etc actually Gary. I cant imagion ford forking out for 2 cars of about the same size, when all they need do is design one and change the skin of it. I could be wrong tho. Ones a 5cyl the other is a 4cyl, different engine size etc so they are different engines. And well volvo is ford as well!
  21. Well they were $750 before MBF rebates. Which I must say is worth the money, MBF rocks.
  22. My glasses are ready That means no money again. They are damned expencive things hey!
  23. Think I saw Pred on the M1 around Benleigh at about 12.30. Not sure if it was him, if it was jees man in a world of your own hey I was in one of my work mates 4b.
  24. Astra isnt holdens fault hey. Id still go the focus, I think it looks better. Really the focus and 3 should be the same car other than the engine as its all ford anyway. And the alfa was a V6 for crying out loud, its nuts. Either way I think all these cars could be quite dangerous. If you know how to drive them fine, otherwise look out. Guess its the same with everything tho.
