  1. Ian Luff's courses are awesome - I did stage one and two with him about 10 years ago, just after I got my licence. Cannot recommend his courses/company highly enough. Couple of years ago, did stage 1 and 2 again (in a different car) with Aaron Mcgill (as a part of a stage 1-3 SAU group buy) - the first two courses were OK, but not up to the standard offered by Luff and his crew. Not the greatest of organisers or business people either - We prepaid, then between 2 and 3, he got a better offer, and moved the last day - if you couldn't make it, tough luck, no other time/day, no refund, thanks for coming - wouldn't even return phone calls- he seemed to have little interest in running the courses, and appeared to be running them to fill in time between racing - think he was having an off time then, as he had just written off a car (200sx rings a bell) and a sponsor had just pulled out? If he is still running, booking with him might be a bit of a gamble :S Have done a day at Rally School , and a Driver Dynamics stunt day, which was also loads of fun. "Instructional" if you like getting airborne, or driving on two wheels - not sure it will get you any insurance discounts

  3. Kev, I was on the Stunt Driving course yesterday, and would just like to say that it was an AWESOME afternoon....the weather only added to the fun. Thanks for a great afternoon - and I can't recommend this course highly enough. Guys (and girls too), you all have to try it....they actually teach you how to get a car airborne
  4. The coppers used to have a Black R34 GTR, with custom plates (cant remember them)....and i think they kept it in Ultimo (location might be incorect) do a search through the forum....i thin it would have been late 2003/early 2004 that that was floating round and I have a mate that used to b a "p-plate" copper (hes off his p-plates) and i thikn he said that the p-platers can drive if they have a Seargent(?) next to them...there was a condition placed on it, and they have to display plates, just like te rest of us. might also be the situation i the copper has *shock horror* lost their licence, and come backn on p-plates. i might be wrong, but thats what i thought
  5. no to insult you but 30 shipped to sydney?
  6. Hi, is it a 5 or 6 sp manual..... and are they leather seats I see? thanks
  7. thats bs... 3 phones have a USIM, which is basically a regular sim, but the next generation. they can hold hundred of numbers. the early 3 phones were all unlocked, it was only when they realised they could charge an unlocking fee that they decided to ship them locked (and they realised that people were signing up with the free plans, getting a cheap phone, and then selling it for a tidy profit). Most 3 phones can be unlocked for free after 12 months, but some of them also have exorbitant costs associated with them too. you just have to check. sorry for off topic rant ON TOPIC: I have had one of these phones for nearly 12 months and its great. got everything u could need. and worth at least 150 BUMP for you mate
  8. (the subtle point i was trying to make earlier) you dont drive a bentley without the money to back it up
  9. What about a Bentley?.... No one seems to care what happens in uber-exotics
  10. Quality daily driver / first car (I know this is a SKYLINES forum, and this isnt even a nissan, but its worth a shot) I no longer have a use for this car, as I have no where to park it during the week at uni, and take the bus. Grey VN holden Commodore, Executive Seday 3.8L Nov 1990 (I think), 1st reg May 91 Rego till 4 May, 2006 4 brand new tyres, on stock steel wheels (w/ hubcaps 4 that "go fast look")... Serviced 3 weeks ago, new oil, coolant etc brand new thermostat put in - old one was stuck open Reconditioned 4 speed auto half way through last year Currently has no roof lining, because the glue failed, it fell down, and I removed it, along with all the foam above it......I was going to replace it (about $200/230 at a place in drummoyne), but havent got around to it yet Windows tinted beginning of last year, courtesy of B-Mans group buy (v dark metallic) It has a 10 disc cd stacker in it, (I think its sanyo) so nothing flash, but the standard AM/FM/Cassette head unit, stacker in boot. Mid last year, I put in 2* 6" JBL 180W 3 ways in the parcel shelf, and left the standard front speakers as they were (and it all works fine). I havent had any major problems with the car, however the ignition barrel and drivers door lock froze about 6 months ago, but i got two new barrells installed by a locksmith and now they work fine. It was previously owned by my grandparents, I think from new, and I bought it at the beginning of last year. In that time, I had a company car for the second half of the year, so it was barely driven for six months. Prior to me buying it, it was garaged its whole life, and has only lived outside for the past 12 months. There is no sun damage to any of the interior, as I tinted the windows and put SAU seatcovers in almost as soon as I got it. It currently has 1748XX km's on it, and I only drive it on the weekends now I am asking $3500, which is neg, but Im in no hurry to sell, as it just sits in the driveway all week now. Pics should be posted later today, once I find my camera. Inspections can be arranged, but has current pink slip already, as it was only re-registered 3 weeks ago Any questions, PM or email (brendan.mcgregor(at)optusnet.com.au) Can provide mobile if interested, just dont want to post it on the forum. AS AN OPTIONAL EXTRA......I currently have the number plates BU.57.ED (BUSTED) on the car, and will sell them too: with the car for $200 (this includes 1 year of holding them on the car, as I have just paid it), or by themselves for $500
  11. why drag this into the gutter?.....no one has shown any form of obsession with excrement...so where the hell did the hostility come from???
  12. dOnT u gEt XtrA rWkW tYpiNg LikE tHis??? or is it some form of secure code that requires extreme l337-n355 to crack??? personally, it gives me the shits typing that slow and who invited the fun police????
  13. isnt that what the ADR's are for???? i know dotars are pretty confused at the moment, but isnt that why these rules are implemented?....ive never seen a copy of them, so i dont know how specific it is, but shouldnt "mods" be covered somewhere?

  15. werent the speedos in them defective? or the calibration in them changed over time?....and then the cops hit subaru with a damages suit?
  16. try the motorcycle shop on epping rd, lane cove, cnr of centennial ave.....they had a big range between $100 and $200 abt 6 months ago
  17. i got 15% with a slight mirror done all round on my vn commodore....they r awesome...... but be very careful of them for the first fortnight or so.... i put a lil scratch on drivers widow with a buckle on a bag, and get annoyed with my self every time i see it would extremely recommend getting robert to do them (and i would pm you his details, but i have lost the email....) are they not in the thread somewhere?
  18. perhaps he bought a torana (and upsized even more? j/k ;) )

  21. I didnt receive the last mailout, hence my confusion as to his current whereabouts surely the company doesnt just disappear?
  22. Does anyone know what has happened to Aaron McGill's Auto-Motion Australia? In going through my recepeipts a tax time, i realised that i never got a one for the 3 stages of track day, and need to get in contact with him. His website has disappeared, and i have lost all emails from him Any info would be appreciated Thanks guys Brendan
