coupes aren't the best forms of transport for a formal event, unless your intention is just one person per car. getting in and out of a skyline coupe is not easy at best!

I used mine at friends formal. Pulled out passenger seat and couple sat in the back. Following year had 4 passengers. They were only little

it will only be me and a few mates not the whole grade, 2 - 3 per car.

Hahaha, I agree with above. 1 passenger per car is optimal, 2 a little bit shit.. 3 not an option. I have a large rear cross brace across the floor in the rear of the car so passengers have to contend with that and I also don;t move my seat forward for passengers. AND I do not wisht o have to get out of my car like a chauffeur to let some out of the the back. I did take a few people to Balls in my 180SX, but the GTR is a different ball game all together. Race suspension also seems to make people complain..

I got my dad to drive me in one of his work's rusty smokey diesel truck at my formal.

Pulled more heads than everyone else all in their linmos...

I'm always up for stuff when money is involved, however unless you like being in a AUTO skyline (no street cred @ your local KFC drive through) with faded/peeling paint & a big CCCP USSR symbol... :yes:

Silver 05 350z pretty stock except for exhaust and appearance mods, probably the loudest car in willetton.

Midgnight Grey s15, lowered so far you'll feel like your floating above the road

Pearl White R33 Gtst the one in my pic

Pearl White Lexus Soarer V8, fully done project build

SuperCharged Black Chrysler 300

We're all 19-23 so we won't look that seedy at the formal :P

We'd be more then happy to get abused by teachers/parents/pricipals

    • Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask
    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
