[Just Car]

Hey guys,

We’re putting together a project on behalf of Just Car Insurance we thought you might be interested in. It’s called Canvas2Kickass, a workshop to build the ultimate modified car from the ground up, where you can vote at each stage of the process. And the best part is someone gets to drive away in the car at the end, plus there’s heaps of prizes to win along the way.

You guys are into Skylines, and the first stage is picking the base model - one of the options is a Skyline! So if you wanna get on board check it out at www.canvas2kickass.com. And if you’ve got any questions, post them below.

Cheers,

Zac

While I wish you guys all the best. I find it a bit rich to call the finished product the "ultimate modified car" from the ground up, considering whatever car thats chosen will be non turbo. While I can understand why you may of done this, with the whole under 25 thing, one of my criteria for ultimate modified car would be some serious horsepower. And I will be very suprised if you get huge horsepower numbers out of any 1 of the 4 cars with out either a massive engine rebuild or wacking a turbo or supercharger on them.

If you do get some good HP numbers on the NA motor all the better to you, but I'm not holding my breath.

All 6cyl non-turbos???

This must all be about R.I.C.E. then hey?

If the Skyline and Supra were turbo models I might be interested, but I've already got two modified turbo Nissans.. a Rice'd up non-turbo R34 is just that.. a Rice'd up non-turbo R34.

yeah i agree. you are creating the ultimate rice machine, not the ultimate modified car. the only performance mods seem to be exhaust and brakes. more is going to be spent on graphics than actual performance mods.

on this basis, i refuse to vote. no offense, but the last thing we need is another riced up natro skyline on the street. also calling the supra "the king of the rice burners" won't win you many fans.

will this car be legally insurable by the end of the project?

Ultimate Street car = riced up sex spec, no doubt

I've got $5 here that says it's illegal to drive due to some modification.

[funkymonkey]

$10 says it ends up being habib spec.

Smart money would be on this thread being closed for spam though.

While it's a good idea in theory the main problem is you are letting the public vote on modifications. The public is 99% tools that know nothing about cars. Therefore on this alone the car will end up looking like shit with 24" chrome wheels, multi coloured graphics, neons, 100 subwoofers, 10 downlights and a snakeskin interior.

At the end of the day i'll still watch how it goes just to have a laugh at how the car turns out.

$15 says im right *see what I did there?*

Well i know the workshop that will be building it Had to even sign a release form if im caught on the camera hahaha. They do awesome work and im sure it will look good. Its non turbo because it will be made to be p plater legal.

[PM-R33]

What workshop? Or is that a secret?

[krzysiu]

Im not sure if its secret or not :s lol dont wanna get in trouble with the boys down there if it is. Ill be checking in on it quite a bit

habib spec for sure then.

[Basti]

lolshan. kris get those kents to keep doing more nsayne tv eps.

[TwoCents]

If its p plate legal.. then the engine wont even be touched. My guess its going to turn out looking like something like a Frankenstein car with mismatching mods, unless you really limit what stuff can be voted on. Because if there is a whole lot of stupid options to choose the car is going to turn out horrible.. say the skyline wins to be the base... then the other people what voted for the other cars are going to try and make the skyline look horrid. cbf rewriting this to make sense
