Well my Evo VII went to its new home today...... Question is, what do I get next???

Im kinda wanting to have a break for a while, I love my import cars, but I'm a bit over it right now. Dont really want to jump straight back into something just yet.

Anyway.... Suggestions??

That's a nice looking evo you had mate.

Anyway, what to get next? Why not go VIP style if you're into that thing. Get a bit of a break from performance, getting faster lap times and go for a good cruiser? If not that, get a house if you don't already have one.

Depends on what you like I guess.

Ash - Yeah kinda just made up my mind & did it, wanted to pay a chunk off the house too......

Alan - I thought it would of sold quicker too, bloke who bought it couldnt believe the cond it was in & how well it had been cared for.... and yes, I love that shape too!

Warren & Ronin09 - 350GT & 350Z are on the test drive list....... not sure if im all that keen to go buy something yet but it'll be a fun way to spend a Saturday morning!

Arch - I think I miss teh powa!!!! Dont miss the bills though!

Snowy - Nah I really liked it, had a lot going for it & it was white... (I love white cars ) but other things are more important in 2007 than the Evo. Like owning my home quicker! :blink:

Troy - They just look sooo tough in silver hey! Pity I cant steer as good as you can in yours!

Im a bit keen on driving an F6 Typhoon, I like the idea of a Luxo barge tweaked to 350+ rwkw......

Only GTR I would consider is a late model '34 in Grey, but im not sure I could keep from playing with it! Price sorta rules that one out right now.

Evo IX is awesome value.

350GT I like alot too.

350Z ive never driven, but my ex boss has a Black manual Track I could have a fang in no doubt.

VE Clubsport Ive driven, liked it too.

MY06 Sti ive lived with for a week a few months back, styling didnt grow on me. Drove good though. HID's FTW!!!!

What else is there? Anything ive forgotten?

Found it. Sell the stoopid house, dont need clothes either, so hock them at the Salvos to help pay for the just as stoopid car. As for eating, just rack stuff from the servo when the attendant is out having a hand feed over your new car :blink:

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
