  1. Hey mate can you PM me your email address. (cant pm till i have more than 10 posts...)
  2. Hey Mate, Im interested in these rims, can you pm me your number so i can get in contact with you. (i cant pm yet ~ under 10 posts) Cheers, MC
  3. Oh if you want a manual buy a gx(not a gxe they are a tad heavier) or a silhouette (put a silhouette diff in the gx, from an auto would be better but doesn't really matter) gx=lightest aussie r31, silhouette= comes with the diff you want no matter what one you end up buying plus comes stock with extractors, + best looking stock rims If you drive an auto definately get a Ti as these are the only ones with stock power windows and central locking and probably has the best looking front end, very nice seats and has extra sound deadening however these are the heaviest of the aus r31's
  4. Vic is probably the easiest place to get an alright r31 for under 3k especially if you are not too fussed about high kms on the clock which you shouldn't be as the rb30e lasts a very long time so long as its not boosted. Have heard reports of cars doing over 500,000 kms!! Try and find one with 200,000-300,000 kms and you will be laughing. Also try and find one that is as stock as possible as it will most likely serve you for longer and more reliably than one that has been driven by someone who thinks their in a sportscar and they are a race car driver. Petrol consumption from an rb30e is pretty good so long as you dont put your foot flat to the floor every time you accelerate, however the occasional opening of the throttle will put enough of a smile on your face to keep you interested in the car for quite a while (even in stock form) especially as this is your first car and are not downgrading from an r32/r33 or other faster car. Dont buy a pintara you will feel like to get anywhere you need to put your foot flat to the floor and hyundais will even be a threat, also you will lose interest in the car pretty damn quick thus meaning you open the throttle more often and burn more petrol. The best thing about an rb30e is that no matter what you are doing whether going up a steep hill or caught in low revs their is suffecient power throughout the rev range meaning you dont have to floor it to get up a little hill this is completely opposite from the pintara which will start reversing if you go up too steep a hill, rant out *edit: GTS1/2's will be more than 3k and shouldn't be bought as a first car as you will probably get the stupid idea of upgrading them too much and raping them of their true spirit (which is not a true full blown sportscar more like a unique part of australian automotive history)
  5. what are the offsets of stock gts r33 rims? (the stock as a rock looking 5 spoke ones)
