I personally I am not a fan of custom plates think they're all a little wanky.

I just find it amusing cause it's bagging Gus :)

2cents - IMHO I obviously like custom plates coz I got em. But agree wanker ones like PLAYER, 4DBABES,ONDDOLE, MAXPWR, MUSCLE, etc..meh! They deserve a WTF but MR 032 is fine.

So many Skylines around in standard trim/colours - Oooh Spotted a wine red 33, black 34, Silver GTR32 or white 32 may as well close the spotted thread now.

Id rather spotted "name" or if you dont know them "colour/plates" GTR-34x, JUN, R33-ACT, MR 032 or GTR-94v.

Bagging out freinds can be fun :)

Whoa, hang on a sec here... I am normally the first person to have a laugh when someone says or does something stupid on these forums, but I cant understand why you guys are acting like this when Gus hasnt done anything wrong. :D

Gus can have whatever plates he wants to have and fair enough that someone who doesnt know him might post up a bit of a dig at his car on another forum, but why would people who know him and call themselves his friends laugh at him like you guys are...

I know I would feel a bit offended if I knew people were laughing at me and saying those sorts of things while I wasnt here. :P

We arent in high school anymore, geez.

dude way to make a mountain out of a mole hill.

i wasnt laughing at Gus i was laughing at the post and the opinion of the poster. i posted it up here to let him know that people are talking about him, not to make fun of him.

you said that he didnt do anything wrong.. he must have done for the poster to say that he was driving like a tool.. people dont say things like that for no reason. Note: i am not calling Gus a tool, im saying that the original poster called him a tool

+1

I know Gus and I know quite a few of his friends. It's all in good fun. I'm laughing a little at Gus and a little at the opinion of the poster :P

And obviously you haven't read anything on CC lately if you are surprised that friends are bagging each other out.

Also some homo with a jet black 33 GTR, devil horns on the hood....oh wait.

I think you got confused... I think the homo was in the SKY32R wasn't he? :)

PS: It was great to see so many of you at the Hillclimb meeting (myself included).

I'm not sure if JD_R33 went, but I think I spotted him in the Blue GTR followed by a Silver GTST leaving wheels...

Couldn't believe how many cars were out.

Also spotted a Silver R34 GT-T near the SDMA hillclimb Wheels entry behind the tent where an open wheeler was free revving nicely..

    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
    • My experience with Rising Sun Exports Before agreeing to the sale I tried to do as much research as I could (obviously), his Facebook reviews are 98% and he goes Live at least once or twice a week. I contacted 2 people in the UK who had used him for their imports, both had positive feedback. His explanation and talk through of the import process was thorough, answering any query no matter how stupid it was. It felt as soon as the money was sent, communication dropped off. I asked for shipping updates every 2 weeks or so, not wanting to pester him, he never had any updates. I wasn't informed the car had been dropped off at the port, I only found out by his Facebook story. I asked for the photos taken at the port, knowing he would need some for insurance purposes. I received a few 5 second clips and that's it. When asked again, he said his staff had them. Weeks later I asked again, he tells me he doesn't have any, but does have 50 photos from the original advert. I never received them. I eventually got the documents sent via WhatsApp after I mentioned the port was requesting them. I purchased a CarVX report, to find out the vehicle is a Grade R with recorded accident damage, first recorded in 2017 when it was first auctioned. He never told me the grade, then again I didn't ask. His response was "Grade R means nothing, it wasn't chassis damage". Still, I would have liked to have been informed about it. Jon prides himself on being open and honest when it comes to inspecting cars, it's his main job doing so at the auctions for customers. When the vehicle arrived in the UK I noticed a few little cosmetic issues. It's a 21 year old car so it wasn't going to be mint condition. The side skirts are cracked on each corner and the sealant is failing. The front grill on the bonnet/hood isn't secured very well, mounting studs are missing. Both minor things, but again, it would have been nice to be told. During a Facebook Live walk around video of the vehicle, he mentioned it has a front Whiteline anti roll bar/sway bar. While on the inspection ramp, I noticed the stock item has been installed. When first questioned, his response was "the ARB? Switched? Since when, it never had them". Since sending video and photo evidence I've not received a response. I'm probably being over critical of the overall condition of an old car, but all I wanted was honesty (which he claims to have). I'm aware I wasn't his only customer, he's busy doing XYZ but other reviews praise him for great communication with regular updates and photos, I felt I didn't receive the same treatment. 
    • I was able to get some underside photos while the car was on the ramp The suspension is all Altezza/IS200/IS300 so getting part's will hopefully be less of a headache
