Hi guys, I've had a TT Soarer for the past 5 years, but I really needed a 4 door car. Thought I would stick with old faithful Toyota but they only had either an Aristo (great engine, crap interior) or a Chaser to choose from. I've had my fill of forced induction so I went over to the darkside with the 350GT-8 and so far I'm loving it. I'll probably meet a few of you on Sunday at the charity cruise, see you then.

Hiya,

Toyotas are still good cars though.

Did you used to have a brand loyalty towards Toyota that was hard to break?

What do you like about the 350GT-8?

I dropped into Berry a few weeks ago and there was a V35 Coupe there with passers-by milling around it in dribs and drabs. We were sitting in a cafe watching them. Even the women liked it by the body language.

Welcome and enjoy the forums - and the cruise.

I enyoyed the one down the Putty Rd a couple of weeks ago.

The fuel usage all comes down to how you drive it of course, but on the highway I used around 10L/100km, and around town up to 17L/100km.

And you are right, I think it is hard to sell as the market seems to be flooded with them at the moment, just have a look at how many are on Carsales. Thats why I'm selling mine for $3500, haha

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By sonicii · Posted

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
