I just wanted to drop in and say hey.

I'm a transplant from the states married an Aussie and here I am in WA.

I was looking to getting a Syclone/Typhoon brought over from the states but the wife wasn't too keen on it.

Being I wanted something different that I havent played around with and I wanted an AWD car the Sy/Ty was my choice. But since I was told no by the "boss". I decided the closest thing to what I wanted was a skyline. So guys keep a lookout for me on this board because I plan and intend to prolly ask some really stupid questions. I've built my share of street cars in the states.. ( 69 Charger RT 512rwhp, 75 Vette with 400+ hp, camaros firebirds, 56 GMC Pick up (ute to you guys) with 480rwhp 86 mustang, list goes on and on)

See ya'll soon

Rex

69 charger rt

mmmmm

i want one

Bro let me tell she was a beast has a 4000 stall and 4.88 rearend. Wasnt tubbed but with full on slicks she would spin just a bit and just snap your neck. in the quart she prolly run in the high tens low 11's.... which doesnt seem that fast but you are also moving a land yacht. She was super heavy but a real head turner man I miss it just not the petrol bill...lol

Tell your wife to get f**ked, buy whatever you want as long as its not gonna break the bank... whats up with guys these days, getting ruled by a woman!!

She's the one with the trust fund :angry:

or as they once said, "the one with the gold makes the rule"

Either not complaining I'd never would have considered a Skyline if she didnt like thie idea of importing for the states.

      Hahahahah, look, your not wrong 😂😂 and thank you brother 🙏🏼 jokes aside, I haven't driven the car in 6+ years and it's like I'm starting all over again, and furthermore the car is wayyyy more powerful and it's characteristics are night and day different now compared to what I remember. So I'm slowly easing myself back into the groove, the car is literally scaring me a bit tbh.....it feels like it has 200hp more than it does on paper and responds like a cammed Ls v8, and-some! 😅 every single bit of throttle pedal travel and input has instant response all the way to the floor, zero flat spots or labouring feelings, it's nuts. Im shooketh, go easy on me hahahaha or don't 🤙🏼😊

      If the house has ever been sold before too, they have photos from that etc.

      I used to do that, but then I got savvy. The benefits of having your phone photos geotagged outweigh the negatives. I just don't publish any photo straight off the phone/out of the gallery/off google photos, etc. If I'm going to use a photo, other than for SMSing to fam, I will always open it on the computer, copy it/otherwise edit it and save down without the original metadata, before using it. For example, posting photos of my engine bay into a thread on here, to show someone a plug or something - I will just screen-cap the section I want to use and paste that section direct from the clipboard into the post. No metadata goes along with.
