Australian Claibra = crap as you can see above, however the import european models are good and you should make sure you get thye 6cyclinders as the fours are lemon melons, but really skip it :D

weren't they all just imported from overseas? which makes all of them crap?

like rebadged opels and the like

even though its been said, i hate these cars so passionately from experience that i must tell you they are a steaming pile of automotive crap and I feel we should wage war on zee germans for inflicting us with such horrible devices. they come with a bloody camira motor for f*cks sake. (not all of them you smart arses)

What like all skylines are crap because they're all imported?

I think the best thing to do would be go on a calibra forum and ask if calibra's are crap, at least you'll get some positive responses (albeit biased). Asking if they are crap on a forum dedicated to skylines is bound to generate biased responses (negatively biased>)

Jager had said that the aussie ones are shit but the import ones are good.

KillHSV then said that they are all imported. therefore if the aussie ones are shit then all are shit cause they all come from the same place.

No the import ones are the 4's...the Aussie ones are the V6 (badged as HSV !!!)

Had a brief look at the 4WD Turbo model (NOT the base model) when I was looking at cars to buy. They are quite well equipped (full leather interior, etc) & reasonably quick but be prepared to shell large wads of cash when something breaks.

    • Nah, they'll do it without a receipt, tell em roughly when it was, that it was cash, youll likely only get store credit, but that gets you some dollars towards the newer better shovel, or other item you need/want later.   Still take it back and have a crack at returning it.
    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
