  1. i have a few different circumstances iv seen and been in. a friend if mine was chased by police on his motorbike wich i dont condone, none the less he was chased and got away, when the police arrived at his doorstep the next day and got taken into custody, long story short the lawyer got him off as his house has always got people over with the keys living in the garage, it could have been anyone riding the bike. and here is one from my own experience, driving up to mildura from melbourne for work at about 9:30pm 110kph i take a turn dow another highway, 30km down this next highway im doing the same 110kmh. mind you i was sticking exactly to the limit at this stage as i was on the 1 pointh in 12 month system. as a police driver drives past me and does a u turn 3 hours in the middle of nowhere and sirens are blazing, im thinking whats going on here. anyway, he pulls me over and he says do you know you where doing 110 i said, whats the problem, he says where in a 100 zone, i said i didnt see any signs, he said theres a sign on the 30km mark. so this guys obviously pinned blokes on this road with this misserable sign on the 23km mark wich i did not see. to cut a long story short, i played by the rules, i told them my sad story, and they where not lleneant on my at all, "sorry there, but you are admitting you where speeding then you broke the law, and maybe you should talk to vic roads about getting more signs up, $220, 1 demerit point, $50 court costs, the beauty about my situation was that by me taking the fine to court in the first place, it gave me time to get one of my previous fines revoked due to someone else being the culprip of one of the other fines got out of losing my liscence, got the 1 demerit point in 12 months off and all my points came back in a matter of 2 months due to a bad patch in my youth. what im saying is that in my case of pure missunderstanding and an honest lack of signs and pure bullshit, the good guy being me still got screwed, i mean 3 hours away in the middle of nowhere, 110kph on all highways, and 1 100km sign at the "30km" mark of a 100km highway should come with atleast a little leaniancy, come on. anyway thats my rant hehe, sorry its been on my chest for a while but i came out the victor in the end so thats good good luck with it all anyway, but dont do what you can to get off it, do what you have too. all the best speak to a lawyer and see what he says, but sometimes total honesty and being a good guy. makes their job at revenue raising verrry easy.
  2. iv seen this car for sale for a while now, i remember it was 32000 not long ago and seeing a price rise out of it. the good thing about the price rise is you know that the owner knows what he is selling, fo i think its worth 35??? not really. maybbe 29000 and i would have a real think about it, maybe even 30000 if it is as beautiful in the flesh as it seems to be. the gun grey on the rear struts has to go, but the enginebay could look goot seeing as it will be mickey mouse. and personally, i would probably take a mickey mouse wine red gtr over a gun metal grey one. on the subject though, find out if that 2.8ltr r32 gtr that someone on here was talking about is still for sale, that spec list is insane
  3. no i havnt really thought of the asus, whats it like, havnt really been a fan of the look recently. also the only reason i thought of the apple was because a freind has one and recommended it highly for its features. toshiba seems good so ill do some searching, and ill have a look at the new f series vaio. cheers

  5. need it to be a laptop, im traveling 9 months out of the year, it doesnt have to be too light either as once i get of the plane im straight home. theres pretty much 2 other laptops i was looking at alienwares m15x, but i heard that they have terrible support and reliability (the reports i saw where all old, is this still true for the new machines? and maybe the mac bok pro, the specs im looking at on the mac book are core i5 4gb ram 500gb hard drive @7200 rpm 1580x1050 hi res antiglare screen Intel HD Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M with 256MB this comes in at around $2100usd wich is a little over my limit, also removing the high res screen and downgrading to a 320gb hard drive at 5200rpm reduces the price to $1800usd but those otion boxes are painfully addictive hehe my question is will i notice the difference between the above computer and the macbook with what i need it for? and how would the macbook pro i have chosen run games? also will most games work on the mack book? thanks for the info but i really need help. cheers
  6. im looking at buying a decent laptop in the next few weeks and after searching around and tossing up between a few different systems, i just wanted some advice on what you guys think.. im buying it mainly for music photos and net, but sometimes i see a pc game i get excited about and dont want it to run slow with a good game, in saying that if its a really demanding game i dont mind running medium settings. the laptop in mind is the new HP envy 14 beats edition Operating systemGenuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-biteditProcessorIntel® Core i7-720QM Quad Core processor (1.6GHz, 6MB L3 Cache) with Turbo Boost up to 2.8 GHzeditGraphics card1GB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650 Graphics [HDMI] - For Quad Core ProcessorseditMemory6GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm)editHard drive500GB 7200RPM Hard Drive with HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive ProtectioneditOffice softwareMicrosoft® Office Starter 2010editPrimary battery8 Cell Lithium Ion Battery (standard) - Up to 3.75 hours of battery life +++editDisplay14.5" diagonal High Definition HP BrightView Infinity LED Display (1366x768)editPrimary optical driveSuperMulti 8X DVD+/-R/RW with Double Layer Support (Slot Load)editPersonalizationHP TrueVision HD WebcameditNetworkingIntel Wireless-N Card with BluetootheditKeyboardRed Backlit KeyboardeditIncluded AccessoriesBeats by Dr. Dre Solo Headphones From Monster® with ControlTalkeditIncluded Software BundleAdobe® Photoshop® Elements 8 & Adobe Premiere® Elements 8editYour additional options:Click edit to modify.

  7. depends how bad it is and the overall condition of the car. does it run? is it driveable? whats the engine like? how many kms? is the rad support damaged? are the pillars damaged? is it a small dint or a lrge dint in the qauter? is the roof kinked? aslo from what it seems its just bumper front gaurd bonnet quater dint Im guessing the drivers side headlight aswell? it sounds to me like approx a 3500 job and that depends on the 1/4 damage, also i guess depends who you take it too and how much bog you want in your quater. so im guessing anywhere between 6-8000. 9000 if your lucky. but thats just my opinion. but you could get more as iu havnt seen the car. what year? how much reg? colour k´s. and last of all, throw some pics up.
  8. have you thought of a gtir? i had one for a while and although they can have there little problems, all in all, it was alot of fun to drive
  9. thanks alot for that infor, now by rolling the gaurds you mean like lipping the gaurds is that right? (romoving the lip from the wheel arch0 or do you mean actualy streching out the wheel gaurd a little and make a slight flare? does anyone have 19 x 9.5 +12's on there r32 gtr? if so how do they go, there is information on this i know, just thought id ask while im here
  10. thanks for that buddy, im actually planning this build not too far down the track if everything goes well, im 5"9 so the head room shouldnt be a problem, thanks for the information
  11. i like these below, im really into the black for some reason these days wich is goodd for you because i think they go great on a silver car. advan rzd - http://www.yokohama.com.au/media/RZD_mat_b...argel.12475.jpg volk ce29 - http://api.ning.com/files/xmhNXbyW*T*Ee5Jh...M/CE28_JPEG.jpg volk re30 - http://daliracing.com/v666-5/catalog/x-ima...e-30-colors.jpg nismo lmgt4's - and this is why im all for black on a silver r32 gtr http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http:/...%26tbs%3Disch:1
  12. if those side intrusion bars where bolt ins, would this cage be legal to have in a street registered car? or is there too much obstruction of vision in this paticular one. also, could something like that be fitted to the same car with retaining the whole intirioir minus the back seat? this may be a silly question, just interested in a street/circuit car with a serious cage like that. cheers
  13. ok as the title says, im guessing they are 19" at most likely 10.5 but im interested in the offset? my question is will a set of these rims in 19 x 9.5 fit under an r32 gtr with lipped gaurds and some camber? car will be lowered. also what ffset would be best for the above size aswell? one more question, if the rim in the picture is a 10.5" rim then will a 9.5 have the same depth in the dish. main reason for this question is i think the size and depth of the rim is perfect, just need info on the right combination cheers also, sorry, having trouble uploading pics. cheers http://lh6.ggpht.com/_NRSDCBt4i-U/SkfZ5i7I.../GTR%20te37.jpg http://lh5.ggpht.com/_NRSDCBt4i-U/SkfZ5jlr...volk%20te37.jpg
  14. hehe yeah that seems to be the case, just thought japan would be interesting to move to for a couple of years, all the best with your search, it pretty much only looks like south america (where we currently are) the states wich where not interested in, africa and the middle east are also there but we would rather stay here or europe, wich i think is our next destination.
  15. anything wrong with the rolling chassis? if not how much you want for it with suspension and a price with suspension engine and box, cheers
  16. theres no doubt you can get traction, but how much? i ran that power figure on 14psi and boost was coming on quite early so if i didnt baby it taking off it would spen, once bost kicked in in first, it would also spin, and if i changed to fast from ist to second, once again it would spin. what i did have to do was gently squeeze the excellerator and let the boost gradually build otherwise "wheelspin", thats only first and 2nd, after that she was sweet, and yes, i would have been in the 4-4.5 sec bracket. and sure you can drop your tyre pressure for a quick stint here or there, but in reality, most of the time, our cars took babying and frustration to take off quick.
  17. hi mate, if you could send me some pics to [email protected] that would be great, i know someone who will be very interested in this car. also if you could let me know what else it exactly come with. cheers
  18. Just wondering if there are any jobs for a petroleum engineer in japan? iv searched the net but it didnt really come up with much, just though id see if any of you guys living out there might have a clue, also is a high level of japanese a must? my girlfriend is a petroleum engineer and where just looking at our options. cheers guys
  19. my car had 256 rwkw and i had the following setup - bilstien shock absorbers - pedders lowerd springs (%100 street legal) - whiteline adjustable swaybars - whiteline camber kit front - whiteline camber kit rear x2 - whiteline castor kit front - whiteline subframe align/lock (pineapples) not only that but i had bridgestone so2's on the back and it still had major problems with traction, in all honesty it was alot of fun, but it didnt take long before i was over it and just wanted it to get going, 3 months exactly and i got rid of it for a gtr
  20. how much do you want for it with everything minus engine and box?
  21. hi mate, i passed an epa full emission test with a standard airbox, hks front mount, hks 2535 turbo, big fuel pump, dump pipes and front pipes with a tiny exhaust from the cat back and power fc on my r33 gts t, no worries, all i done was rub of the hks print on the wastegate and remove the power fc hand controller. easy job
