ive been playin with turbos and i tried a larger front cover and wheel on a standard rear sized turbo. down low pulled ok but the top end lacked punch. the small exhaust is like a cork up its arsend.thats my thought anyway.

What was your 60ft / 330ft and 660ft times / also the mph of the 660ft and terminal mph and time. This can tell you where things are coming un stuck.

why turn neons on while at the drags looks silly and potentially dangerous also robs u of power

All after me

Your so rice it's unbelievable, Your so rice it's unbelievable.....

And whats with Soarers, I thought just West Perth was packed full of them it appears their everywhere:eek:

Wow! It seems there is quite some passion about the "Lit-up" Soarer! Well I have to admit to you that - that particular Soarer belongs to me. I respect that everyones tastes are different so some (eg: Skyzerr33, jmp, gradenko and puckish) may think it's rice, butt ugly and/or the person driving it is a tool - and that's all cool - you're entitled to your opinion! I'm not offended...! The car managed to pick up the "Mr TRD" Trophey at the 2002 PAS Western Salon and a 14.2 on the drag night so it can't be all that bad - can it !?

The car is a bit of a project for a number of Perth based initiatives. For one I am also the President of the Soarer Club for Western Australia so that was in part why there was a stack of Soarers down there on Wednesday. And hey, don't knock the Soarers! both the V8's and Twin Turbo's did pretty well on the night! I certainly can appreciate the skylines and if I had a second choice a Skyline would be it.

Secondly the car is a promotional vehicle for my business www.importscene.com.au. Specialising in auto accessories for the import market. And yes I've seen previous threads regarding the "rice" component. But again I'm fine with that. You either love it or you hate that stuff, personally I love it and a lot of my customers happen to be standard Aussi blokes many of whom own skylines!!

So at the end of the day this car is a bit of a promo vehicle for me and it needs to be seen. I also happen to love the neon look (each to their own) and if that makes me a tool in the eyes of some of you well so be it ! I'll still be down at the drags (trying) to kick some whoop ass....! Next time you see me at the plex come over and have a yack I'll be only to happy to listen to you dis me off in person! I think you'll find I don't take too many things that seriously :(

By the way "EXIT" drop by the shop sometime in wangara and I'll give you a generous discount for having such good taste!...

Cheers guys - enjoy the scene... :D

The only soarer I didn't like was the white one with the *huge* wing, long sticker and plate style rims.

It's just not my taste.

However, that blue/green one with neons didn't look bad but I just don't believe that neons belong on the track.

Also - Good luck with the shop lextc, nice to see a import style shop in Perth.

If neons and rice is the best way for you to express the love for your car, then I'm glad you stuck with your first choice.

personally I love it [rice] and a lot of my customers happen to be standard Aussi blokes many of whom own skylines!!  

And thats the shame of it all.

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
