Thanks for taking some time out for me (at some stage).

Yes, Mark's car had a Plus-Pak with the Polarizer.

One distinguishing feature is that it had an after market HDT Approved set of gas struts for the bonnet.

The air filter cannister was chromed as well.

"Bat at the window" lol

That reminds me of a terrace house at Woolloomooloo that has a warning sign on the window that says,

"This house is guarded by shotgun 3 days a week - Guess Which Day??"

Cheers, Terry

:P 1 of 30, im surprised that it's not surfaced again; those rare HDT models tend to get noticed even more! not to mention the Polariser loses its magic effect if removed off the car it was originally fitted to lol.

I really wanted a HDT when I got my P's, almost snagged a black VK Director for 8k, then decided they were too old and carbies were for cavemen. Wish I'd made the investment, as the prices tripled within about a year.

I can vouch for the 330ci.

They are a nice ride, honestly, with alot of goodies to play around with inside

-heated seats

-Electric seats

I was going for the Convertibile over the Coupe though for some reason, summer appeal lol.

R32 VW is a very neat rocket aswell.

But yeah, you say you dont like the look of the 25GT, but you want a GTT. They look the same dude :S .

It is rare to find someone outside of the HDT forums who knows as much as you do about them Terry, most of the car mags always seem to get things wrong when it comes to HDT cars. Best mate and I are still kicking ourselves that we didnt try harder to get one back then when Group A's were getting a maximum of $30k, guess the same applies to the recent resurgance in XW-XB GT Falcons and coupes.

Alright so i am 16 and turning 17 in a few months and i want to get the skyline year 2000 r34 GT-T the specific one that i am looking at is this one

http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars/privat...me&__Nne=15

But i am not sure if i am leagally allowed to drive this on my p plate if i am not allowed to drive the speficic car that i showed in the link ... am i allowed to drive any of the 2000 r34 gt-t's while on my p's.

If I had my time again I'd sink some dough and make Honda my first car of purchase. These things are designed for P-Platers like yourself.

Great handling, decent looks, naturally aspirated, fuel and insurance friendly, and not too much of that P-Plater killing power that takes out so many enthusiastic kiddies these days.

Make your life a combination of experiences! Drive a front wheel drive now, a rear wheel drive drifter later, a convertible, a 4WD, and then save the best for that time when you'll truly appreciate it!

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.
