It's funny Mik joked about it being a hillclimb... as a teenager I lived just down the road, and let's just say we spent a fair bit of time in that forest on the dirt roads learning some rally driving skills LOL

First day back at work after 10 or so days being sick (Unpaid leave, CURSE YOU). Anyways, first day back at work I decided to take the monring a bit easy and search for some Skyline reviews. The oldest review I have found is in 1999.

http://smh.drive.com.au/motor-news/250z-gtr-on-nissans-wish-list-20100823-13g9r.html

A good read.It's really interesting reading about such old cars to us, but reviewed as new back in the 90's.

R34 GTR coming to Australia: http://smh.drive.com.au/motor-news/nissan-ponders-gtr-20100823-13gn0.html

#@Sinista32 The Skyline GT-R wont be cheap. In Britain, the price is 50,000; if it happens here, Nissan Australia will be setting the price around $140,000. I remember us trying to find some cost figures for the R34 GT-R on it's release.

Ztune R34: http://smh.drive.com.au/motor-news/skyline39s-the-limit-20100824-13oh7.html

I've tried to find some Drive.com.au articales about the R32 GTR when it first featured or even in pre-production but I'm guessing Drive.com.au wasn't around then.

jeremy Clarkson from top gear did a review of the r32 when it first released. The video is on youtube. It's an interesting watch.

P.S good to see the public servant here is working the hardest in the office today.

Yeah seen that video. Pretty interesting that's for sure. I hate reading, but was looking forward to it.

p.s The work I do in an hour probably admits to your work in a week :P. I work hard when I need to, I also take advantage of slower times in my day ;) Work smarter ! Not harder !

you coming out to a Friday meet soon?

haha I know exactly who that was. He has the car back (so people can chauffeur him in it lol), but license will remain suspended of course. He was busted on the way back from Sydney after an impulse drive up there for the weekend after a rather serious shitstorm with his housemate(s).....was really late Sunday night (hence it being told as "Monday" as it technically was lol), so at least it wasn't during the day when there's traffic....and yes, I realise you can't excuse it :P

He drives (or drove, lol) a Mitsubishi 380. Never usually drives aggressively, so it was definitely a once off that he unfortunately got caught for LOL

That's amazing news ! As I'm sure everyone here obeys the road rules. Police Targeting Modified cars was a horrid month (Whenever those RTA cars with cops going around). Speaking of which. I spotted a RTA / Cop setup stop thingy near Gunners. 4 cops and 2 RTA cars - saw one cop speed off with sirens and as I was passing I gave them a bit of my JDM PSSSSSCH, cops head's turned thinking "there goes our one of our monthly statistics !" as I drove off into the sunset :D

Chris, your taxpayers dollars are being well spent on my SAU browsing :P

I knew of someone who did 180 in a 60km/h in Newcastle. Sped got his license taken away and car as well. Complete moron he was.
