I'm probably gunna get bagged out for this, but my first car was a 1978 VB sl/e commodore with a worked 308, turbo 400 tranny and a nine inch. It ran 13 sec quaters and had a top speed of about 240km/h.

I've still got it and am planning to rebuild it (make it even faster), as soon as I finish saving up for an R32 GTR.

95 Hyundai Excel 3 Door Hatchback......Laugh all you like. Punished everyday of it's life, has driven over 310 thousand K's and still going strong. It has been the best investment I have made to date.

Mods: One big arse stereo (in it's day). Infinity Kappa splits, 6X9's and a 12 inch in the boot. Recall racing a "Devil Yellow Mini". Now those were the days. LOL

1979 Torana

- 202 stage 1 with a stage 2 cam (about 25/65), Genies, Holley, the usual stuff

- M20 & about 3 or 4 diffs (kept braking them).

- yellow with a black bonnet, hotwires (heheh) & no bumpers

- plenty of camber 225s on the front, 185s on the back for dodgy dorifto Oz Style

My first car:

GTR R32 T88-33d, Cams, etc etc etc....

400kw@ wheels

Lucky first car aye!!!

So your actually dead right & this is like the brother or relative telling people what your car was? FMD 400kw @ the wheels for a P plater is a tad extreme.... I hope Daddy didnt buy it.

:headspin: I'm amazed at the amount of PPl who can afford the $$$ to get something pretty flash as a first car!?!?

1. is it that either someone else fronted up with the money for you, or

2.you used other peoples cars for most of your early driving life, or

3. you lived at home riding the train / tram / getting a lift, not spending the money that you earnt??? :headspin:

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
