yeah its been a three week labour funkymonkey haha.

yes ant she is now mine!! i am so going to either lose my license or kill myself she is actually faster than the skyline.

Great stuff Niz......I know how capable they are....I was up against one at a deca day in Vic...only power mods were intake and exhaust but it had a crap load of suspension work.....even my 200rwkw gtst was humbled by it (not by much but even so).

Enjoy it and I hope to see you at a track or skidpan soon :huh:

Nice car niz, I have been sorely missing a turbo car and have been thinking about what to get as my next ride. A mate bought one of these a yellow limited ed one and I went for a drive in it the other day (basic modes, exhauast, pod filter, better suspension) and I was amazed at the low down torque and overall acceleration... i might have to look at one of these :)

nah jezz decided it wasnt for her .....its gone to a new home in rockingham so maybe some of the RICE crew might see it around .... but i doubt it. Its this guys first import - had VK statesmens and stuff like that before. In the end it sold for $14.5K

I had a cry! then i sat in my new project :rolleyes:

yeah but when importers are selling them for about $8K and other people with the same configuration are selling them for $15K .... not much of a choice. Unfortunately a vehicle is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it ...... plus it gets paulie off my back about selling it.

Admittingly my R33 wasn't exactly in perfect - there was a little bit of race tape on there where the corner of the front spoiler had been ripped and a trolley ding in the side etc.

Dan Im not going to argue with that its becoming scary in fact!!

Maybe i should even get a job as a carsalesperson :)

I've started even going off in threads (not these forums) "Should I by this car" it's like why the hell do you need a thread to ask every john, dick and harry should you buy a car or not - we aint going to be driving it, we aint going to be paying for it ..... if you like it and can afford it then the only person left ot give it the okay is an mechanic. Geez .... hahaha maybe that should go in the "what really grinds my gears thread" people that have to bring a committee or consult a committee of people before making a decision that at the end of the day will only effect them.

    • Unless you're fortunate enough to buy a newer car, getting an older style plate to match your name/car is difficult because they've already been purchased.  Unlike other countries, personalised plates are locked to the country and not region, so there can't be multiple versions of the same plate but with a different area code.  Hope that helps
    • People use the numbers to make it look like letters to spell words/names, which is where the illegal spacing comes in. For example this GR Yaris  
    • Today's rock removal from my stock pile out the back into a 4m³ skip bin, I still have a bit to go, hopefully there's enough room in the skip bin, it will be close My daughter and her boy was coming on Sunday to help, but, I got possessed by demons and started work as soon as the bin arrived at 1230 today Lots and lots of barrow loads were achieved  Currently I'm sitting on the lounge drinking beer thinking of how I should have waited till Sunday for some help, tomorrow will be a day off, in saying this, my day off will involve prep and paint of my alloy coolant and PS tanks with wrinkle paint (Jackie is in Sydney till Sunday so the home oven will get a run curing the paint....LOL)
    • That's why I said it is a meaningless term. Because there is more than one meaning that people can apply to it. When we said "highflow", that is exactly what we mean, and exactly what is done. In a highflow, they take your housing and machine them out to take bigger wheels, have a better internal profile, etc etc, and fit a new core with the different/better/bigger wheels.
    • Oh sry i do not know if i used the term right. What i meant is upgrade the internals and keep the housing. That is not "hybrid"?
