How does one know if one is "old skool" or "original"?

I was at the last one so I will probably turn up anyway.

Normally, I would've said if you can remember Nik, Ewan and Mark the Drunk downing brews and making us all laugh, the 'Purple People Eater', too many Andrews to count, trivia before iPhones, Jerra's particularly cold(boosting)evenings, Integra Automotive, HKS Type 1 EBC's, wondering which one or if any of the girls were going to show up, Race Snooze's wicked white thing, you'd be 'old school', but now I'm more inclined to think it's a frame of mind. If your Skyline is a 'keeper', not to be chopped in on the next 'fad' car, you respect the numbers 30 through 34, realise the faux pas of incorrect model badging, love knowing your marque is the reason it's a two-taxi race at The Mountain...you get the idea. Thoughts?!?

But the ultimate "Old Skool" moment was when we all bet James $20 that he wouldnt snort a line of salt... We lost :D

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
