Its basically an R33 GTR with a Stagea body slapped on top... a phatacular wagon with GTR powah :D Awesome cars.

Was heading down towards cooma and had what looked like ski's on the roof... so one would assume it was headed to the snow :)

hey guys

just got back from 2 weeks getting wasted, travelling and skiing in new zealand.

to those of you that haven't been over to the land of the small fat ugly non-flying bird you'd be really surprised at the cars over there! subaru's outnumber falcodores on a ratio of about 3 to 1 which is so frigging refreshing! r32 4door non turbos are about as plentiful as r33 gtsts here in australia. with the nature of jap import pricing in nz, it doesn't surprise me in the slightest that people are chosing these cars over your similarly priced 2nd hand camrys/magnas/falcodore's etc etc. levins/legacys/delicas/lines/soarers are all over tyhe place! its amazing!

and i also noticed the nature of the car culture over there is incredibly different. as opposed to australia, where most cars that get taken out and cruised are somewhat respectable, there are HEAPS of stock, sh1thouse cars that parade the streets. your average rust infested 80's corolla with schticker rice and big stereo brigade is well in force.

having said that, i 1) saw and 2) HEARD the most incredible sounding bmw hellrot red-ish r32 gtr on a christchurch backstreet ever. moster black rims (weds sports i reckon) the thing was completely mental! huge completely deafening external gate blowing flames out the bottom of the car with smoke pluming off all 4 in 3rd (after doing the same, except more violently in 1st and 2nd). must've been making obscene amounts of power! the sound this thing made was frightening. to those that can relate (sauact dyno day read: luch's beastie) it was the kind of noise only a really nuts output car can make... something with rebuilt everything and big compressor(s) sort of noise. i'm tempted to dip over to the sdu nz darkside to see if i can find this beastie's owner!!!

anyway, i'm back in town, so i'll seeing you guys round the traps no doubt.

Spotted what is possibly the biggest wanker to grace a BA Falcon GT driving up the Monaro Highway this morning. Learn to drive you wanker, and your car is and sounded like a piece of shit.

wasn't Damo was it??? lol

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
