I have seen this guy on Ebay for bloody ages and a couple of friends have bought through him and say the product is very good. Items are likethis (click). But the guy has literally hundreds of different designs (have a look at his other items for sale). The catch is you buy the item for 1c, but the postage is US$29.99 - so for US$30 (around $40) you get one of these damn cool signs. But, he has stipulated that if you buy 5, then the cost is US$130.04 (about $171 or around $34.20 each).

So, I will have 2 at this price, is anyone else interested on some? The designs range from beer ads to sporting teams to pictures/murals (from what I remember seeing previously).

I like these ones in particular: Dolby digital, another Duff, and Coke, Guinness, PS2 etc etc

Obviously if we could get more numbers, I'm sure he would slash the price even further!!

By the way, they are fully compatible with our power, the easiest thing to do is cut off the 2 prong plug (I think it is a HK type plug), buy a cheap-ass extension cord, cut the end off it, and solder the wires together. Easy. But I will be wall-mounting my units, and running the power leads straight into the roof and hard-wiring them to switches.

So who wants one/some? They would even be very cool as a night light in your bedroom or shed!!!

he does Pie, but it is a minimum of 10 pieces and costs US$500 delivered. I am still negotiating a good deal for us.

I am going to have to get payment upfront. PM me if you want to come give me cash (I am in Northgate - near Oakden), or I'll give you my bank details.

The only issue is GST or customs .... hopefully we don't get taxed at all, but we have to be prepared in case we get stung. I would think it would be an absolute maximum of $10 - per unit, but I guess we would have to cross that bridge when/if we came to it. I don't think it would be a problem though.

At under $35 I think these things are an absolute bargain!!! Check out how much similar signs sell for locally on Ebay or the Beer Gear shop - you will be surprised how expensive they really are!!

ok, he has been pretty un-negotiable on price, even when I threatened to take our business elsewhere. The price is A$36 each, which includes insurance, postage and handling (insurance was extra but well worth it I think).

Please PM me with the exact design you want (PMing me a list of Ebay item links would probably be helpful so as to avoid confusion between similar signs), and your postage address. At this point it is not 100% clear, but I am hoping this price is for postage individually, as this is less likely to arouse suspision with customs etc .... after all if we get a batch of 10+ in, then it looks like we would be selling them and hence duteis should be paid. As these are for personal use, I don't think that would be fair. If he won't post to individual addresses, I'll get them posted to me and will have to distribute. Kamikazee33, obviously if I have to repackage yours and post them, I'll have to ask for you to cover postage. Wouldn't be much I suspect.

I will PM all you back my bank details, or you can ring me to deliver cash. Or those coming Saturday night to Matt's Birthday bash can pay there. I am not sure of shipping times, but I would asume it would all happen pretty quickly. As you would understand I am not making any money out of this and aren't responsible for delays. Hopefully it doesn't happen, but there are no guarantees. I am sure it will all be fine.

So let me know firm numbers and let's get the ball rolling.

Kamikazee33 can you please give me the links to all 3 signs u want ... there are a few different design Coke and Duff ones - do the layout like MattRs if you don't mind :P

no worries mate - I just want to make sure I get the orders right :P ....

I will keep the orders open for a few more days, so anyone else interested let me know. And can EVERYONE who wants one (or multiple) PM me their address and how they want to pay. I will need payment by say next Wednesday at the latest. I'll close ordering then and make the order to them. Sound fair?

ORDERING & PAYMENT CLOSES WEDNESDAY 24th NOVEMBER!!! No payment, no order - that's the way its gotta be :D

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
