  1. derp derp but it's not every day you see a GTR doing it.
  2. I got there, had epic heart burn, struggled with coffee so I got a toasted ham/cheese crossaint. Banana bread can be tomorrow when i get paid > i can see people trying to f**k you up the arse for even asking this one.. So can I, but it's a valid question. I can imagine you're right about it being an issue with gearing, apparently this guy was revving out to 6k in 4th gear to get to around 170 then into 5th, but once it was in fifth it didn't go to like 4k or shit it went to 5k and went back to around 6k after passing the 180. It wasn't hitting the rev limiter. Can anyone explain how the gearbox things work? If I were to change the gears so that they were longer or something, but kept the engine the same, would there be a performance issue with acceleration? Would it be a case of faster top-end, slower acceleration? If I had a turbo with longer gears, would the power then give me a better acceleration and top end? Just trying to wrap my head around things
  3. So I was reading on a website that when this crazy p-plater gave his car a bit, he/she pushed the car past the limits of the speedo, doing roughly 200km/h, and his/her car started to make a funny noise that was hard to describe. Apparently it's a sort of buzzing noise. Is this a limiter or can the engine seriously not go faster than this? What's limiting the engine from going faster? Also, should I get a banana bread with my coffee this morning?
  4. bog stock r33 s2 man 166k on the clock 10k flat. check the link in my link in my signature. edit: not bog stock anymore; it's got a 2.5" catback with hiflow cat
  5. pft coke. Nice car though
  6. If you're still looking; mine for 10k flat.
  7. pebkac at it's best, by the sounds of things. Btw; read threads like these: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/358006-daves-thirty-two/
  8. +1 any date
  9. What do you expect? You're comparing a milk bottle to a wine cask. Also, the XR6 is a family car. I'd buy one to tow my 32 to the drifts and take my grandmother out to lunch in.
  10. Unigroup at Girraween seem to be popular amongst my mates. Edit: LOL see? Good blokes. Is Yavuz the tall bloke? If so, he owes me $5 =.= hahaha
  11. Thanks mate Hey.. didn't you have an R32 4door or am I getting you confused with someone else I've seen around the forums? The market is dead atm but I'm in no rush to move my car, so a price drop isn't really neccersary. Thank you for the advice though. Car sales isn't too accurate either, plenty of N/As going for >10000 both private and dealer. Thanks for the vouch Ben Demand isn't that high, but it takes that one person looking for a mint skyline to drive on their Ps. 11k is a bit much for the average p-plater because so many of them are at uni or being hired at stupidly low salaries. +1 to the falcodore idea.. heaps of p-platers I know option for $500 cars sigh I used to think that maybe I should have gotten a cheap basher for my Ps.. but since buying the 33 for my daily, I've felt so much better while driving (and I do a LOT of driving) I don't even look back or regret it. It's one of the best purchases of my life (other than the difficult to sell part rofl)
  12. What about a transmitter which recognizes if a car is stalled and sends a warning off to the guard tower. You could even wire safety cut-off systems so all cars have their engines cut when something like this happens. Then again.. this is just attacking a problem directly as opposed to finding a safer way to starts. Not keen on rolling starts... launches are awesome to watch

  14. You're doing it wrong. > Hey nafags > Today i f**ked this ricer piece of shit civic in a race... f**king burner bro... full thought he was king shit with vtec > f**ked him up mate > anyways my cars f**king slow whys that? either that or just don't mention it was a street race? "So we were at the drags and we did *blah*" Do you REALLY think anyones going to know any different? I know people who "go to the drags" every weekend for three years, yet they've been to wsid once or twice. inb4 p-plate hoon; I just think the guys an idiot for openly admitting to breaking the law on a public forum.
  15. Check fuses.
  16. That makes me so happy If I can get all the required things.. and someone to drive my car there... I'll definitely come along
  17. p-platers in turbos allowed? Also, will joining sau give me my cams stuff I need?
  18. Nah man... I'm like... the next Ken Nomura!
  19. Might go the completely black idea.. I'll see what paint they have. If they have some awesome color I might try do a bit of a edge in a funky color for lulz.
  20. ebay? pick and payless? SCA? Autobarn? Autone? bunnings?
  21. 3k!?! edit: what the heck were the minor issues and how long ago was this?s
  22. No tax invoice is the MFW. YoYo; yeah, I was really impressed by the price. I was expecting much more. As for "get a turbo'd car"... it would be an awesome solution if some of us were allowed Just doing some basics on my 33 n/a, make it nice. DOn't know if I'll spend money on my GTST just yet... I kinda need to sell it if i want to have a disposable income rofl
  23. Know anyone who can do better for a 2.5" catback for an R33 GTS25? I've called the local places, $350 is the best price from castle hill...
