Congrats on the new car!

Have respect for the car and you won't go wrong. You don't need to go fast to pull women in a GTR anyway :no:

I got my GTS-T at 18 after driving a corrolla >_< ... my advice would be to book a advanced driving training at AHG and get in on a skid pan day. You may think you'll never get into a situation but trust me you will :woot: The AHG course changed my driving pretty dramatically, the skidpan was just fun haha.

It'll show you your limits and the limits of the car, you will come unstuck when your pushing yourself. Its a lot better if thats on a skid pan than a public road riddled with poles and curbs.

Sign up for SAUWA and get in on the next cruise. Once you see and hear some of the other cars you'll be hooked, let the mods begins :O

      Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?

      Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!

      Living With An R33 Gtst

      By shubby0901 · Posted

      End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
