i will try and find a picture of my actual one, as it had plastic chrome hubcaps, but this ones is close enough...owned by my brother on his p's then me before being put to rest by an idiot my dad gave it to. Still by far the most reliable car i've ever owned sadly enough.

Good idea for a thread.

My love of the RB's originated with this prime example VL. Drove the old girl into the absolute ground. Sold it for $500 to some 17yo dreamer with grand plans; 450000k's on the clock, sill under the front drivers door, rear windscreen pillar and around the front windscreen seal was completely rusted out. If you tapped it hard enough you would nearly put your hand through it.....had some wicked times on the dirt road you can see in the background (and in the back seat) :P

This SLR 5000 was my first car back in 1992. From then I owned about five more V8 Holden's. I wish I had of kept the SLR going by the prices they fetch these days.

I converted to skylines about 6 years ago after being taken for a ride in one. The following week I had my VT geniii up for sale. Have never thought about getting another V8 since

Cool 1st cars....

Mine was a 1988 VL Holden Calais series 2.

Original owner who had bought it from Barry Smith Holden in Castle Hill.

Champagne Gold and only had 114,000kms and was immaculate when I bought it in late 2000.

I actually really like the car. But as my brothers were rev heads I got bored of the power way too quickly. Put it in the trading post when I decided to sell it and was sold that Thursday morning by 11am

2nd car was a 87 Mazda 323 run around while I was thinking of what to buy.

3rd was a Holden Astra Equipe brand new which I made money on...

4th was a brand new 2002 Subaru WRX. It was the end of the bug eye shape so got an awesome deal on it.. Had that for just under 2 years.

5th was a 1991 R32 GTR in silver in 2004 which ran a best of 11.9 and back then was pretty damn quick.

6th was R34 GTR in bayside blue..

While owning that I had a few run around cars. 2 Ford Laser's which were awesome little cars.

Then had a 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 9.

And now a 2011 Nissan X-Trail and a 1998 Mitsubishi Magna.

Next car is probably gonna be a Lamborghini Gallardo most likely a UK one cause they are gonna be more in my price range.

    • To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...
    • Good old Orange Park hey... 😛   f**k I miss that race track
    • lo, it was a death trap. Good times. Got any Fatz Drift Day DVDs still available?
    • Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.
    • Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
