  1. Oh my god.

    He put LED tail lights in it.

    And white rims on it?

    OMFG.

    The black rims I had on it were Jap 3 piece 17's that weighed bugger all.

    Able to drop by and ask how much he wants for it?

    Damn! Why he would change the rims I dunno :S At least its the red LED tail lights and not those chrome ones. Never spoken to the guy, let alone seen him but if he's ever out when I drive by i'll see if he's willing to sell lol. He also has a series 8 RX-7 on buddy clubs which looks pretty mint

  2. Make sure to come to Texi in June, get a good feel for how the car handles/performs (and keep it off the roads!)

    Yeah I just saw the event and read the introduction to what a texi is. Looks like stacks of fun from the video. Might come and spectate that one and see what the go is. A bit nervous to get out there.

  3. The boys at CCS are brilliant - did my daily, and it's a frigging immaculate job.

    Couldn't agree you more man! Awesome guys!

    Welcome Vince nice car! I'm also from St Clair. Might catch you around. There is a western sydney event in the NSW section for Saturday night if you're interested in joining in.

    Enjoy your new ride!

    Oh awesome! Yeah hopefully catch you around. I'll see if I can drop by as I have a birthday party on that night but it is in the Penrith area anyway so I think I can swing by for a bit.

    Definitely get stock lights. Will improve the look by that much more. I had similar lights on mine when I got my car except mine were even more faded, almost pink. Looked disgusting. Change them ASAP!

    Yep mine are pink now haha! Eyeing some on ebay now.

  4. Hi Guys,

    My name is Vince and over the weekend I picked up my first Skyline. I've been on the forums since September last year now researching about Skylines and this is my first real post on here. I bought the car formerly known as FLN57S off Jason and am loving it to bits. It is a 1998 GT-T in the dark blue pearl colour This is my first turbocharged car so i'm still learning a lot but am enjoying this new experience. I'm from St Clair so that's Penrith region for those who are unfamiliar Western Sydney

    The car as I bought it had fitted:

    Mechanical

    - 3in front pipe

    - Hi-flow cat

    - HKS Silent Hi-Power cat-back exhaust system

    - GReddy front mount turn flow intercooler

    - A'PEXi pod filter

    - Spitfire coil packs

    Electronics

    -Nistune chip

    -Blitz Spec R dual solenoid boost controller

    - A'PEXi turbo timer

    Suspension

    - Tein Flex coilovers

    Exterior

    - Origin front lip

    -18 in wheels

    - LED tail lights and middle brake light

    - HID's

    - Nismo front indicators

    Car Audio

    - Clarion DVD headunit

    - Panasonic 4 ch amplifier

    - Kenwood 6in rear speakers

    - Kenwood 12in subwoofer

    It is tuned and running 10psi.

    I'm extremely happy with how it is now and don't have any major plans to modify it mechanically currently as this is my first turbo vehicle and i'm still getting used to the power.

    Since taking ownership I have given her a good clean and degreased the engine bay. I swapped over my own custom plates and went to Carbon Car Systems to get an alarm & immobiliser system installed. Thanks to Daniel and the guys at carbon for doing the install, they did a great job and I would highly recommend them!

    I've also got a Rockford Fosgate P2 12in sub and Rockford Fosgate PBR300X1 amp waiting to go in from my previous car. So far only plan to upgrade the sound system with JL Audio C2 splits up front and coaxials in the back and run a JL 4ch amp with an Alpine double din screen head unit.

    In the future possibly upgrade the turbo but not really thinking about that just yet, i'm happy with all the bolt-ons and aesthetically I love the simple look. Just thinking about returning the tail lights to stock and later on getting some nice japanese wheels.

    Here are some pics of when Jason had her:
