Only just bought my R33 GTS-T :D

Next up... hmmmm

Depends when I finish at uni I guess...

Perhaps an EVO of some sort if I manage to score a good grad job? Or an S15?

Planning on keeping the 33 for a while yet though :)

for the last 3 or 4 months i have been trying to lay my hands on a semi built 427 AC COBRA replica... hard to find >you gotta be ready when a good one comes up!

My big dream would be to 4x4 one with r32gtr running gear :D

current car: RB25 R32GTST, probably selling soon

Next car: EVO 8 MR or........maybe a chaser in manual of course

Why: well the EVO is the newest fastest thing I can afford..and the chaser well im not sure why but I have always loved them

the skyline is my first car and i plan to keep it untill i am off my p's. then when i am 21 i wanna buy a 2nd hand DB9

your kidding me right? how in f*cks name can you afford one of those? wanna be my friend? :laughing-smiley-014:

current car: VL

next car: soarer? but wont be for a while im broke as a joke

Don't do it man... who cares about straight line speed... it's all about how much fun you can have on the corners & how fast you get through them.

I would never buy a jeep... and I used to work for the company! lol :laugh: You're better off with a real 4x4 like a land cruiser, or maybe a X5.

Unless of course you need to tow stuff or drive through rivers...

I think i'm over the whole car thing.. time to settle down and get myself a JEEP:

'Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT-8'

http://www.webwombat.com.au/motoring/news_...erokee-srt8.htm

http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Drive...rticleId=108449

http://www.caradvice.com.au/3234/2007-jeep...srt8-road-test/

Power: 313kW @ 6000rpm

Torque: 569Nm @ 4800rpm

20†alloy wheels with Brembo brakes

Priced at $85,990

"5.2 seconds to 60 mph, 13.5 seconds in the quarter-mile. That makes this a 4,800-pound SUV that easily smokes a new Mustang GT, Pontiac GTO and, its most direct competitor, the Chevy TrailBlazer SS. And, you may want to sit down for this if you're a Porschephile, it's even quicker than the $90,000 Porsche Cayenne Turbo (0-60 in 5.9, quarter in 14.3)."

"Let’s put that into perspective. The 2.1-tonne 4WD will out-row a HSV GTS in a straight line run to 100km/h and will also beat one of its double-priced rivals – the Porsche Cayenne Turbo."

This is being realistic can't wait to see these for sale on the second hand market :domokun:

well so far my car list goes-

1st- Honda CRX si (excellent A to B car :laugh: )

2nd- mark1 MR2 (bloody rot box :D )

3rd- mark 2 MR2 turbo (nice car with a T-bar that leaked in ;) )

4th- mark 2 MR2 turbo (tin top no leaks + very very fast :( )

5th- current car R32 RB20 (a bit slow wish i had bought a GTR :domokun: )

So going by my past rides im thinking i might get another import probably a RX7 series 6 :)

GTShortie - My dad has one of these ...... i hope you got a truckload of money because you will need to own an oil company to run the bloody thing .... guzzles lots of fuel. It's okay .... its not really a jaw dropping machine.

Mine is going to have to be something with 4 doors and im not liking anything thats out there at the moment. So far the shortlist goes to: New/Demo Audi A6 or New/Demo Subaru Liberty 2.5GT Tuned by STI. Hopefully in the next 12-18months they bring in a really nice Soccor Mumma car with some balls.

    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
    • Yeah man, absolutely. You can try pushing me all the way in swapping the R34 for an E9x M3 
    • It's almost certainly going to be some amount of pads compound transfer onto the rotors. It will probably go away after you've run them for a bit. If not, pull it all out, lightly sand the rotors, scuff the pads, and rebed.
    • no one recommending speedtek gearsets?   i'm in the same boat as Cosline but rwd, I am holding boost back in third to 600nm at the hubs to save the gear as i make nearly 750nm at the hubs on a mainline
