mainly HPI, but at many of the local newsagents it will come with a 2 extra mags which are usually old episodes of zoom and HPI... I bought and issue of speed also and I liked it especially their awesome photograpy which makes the photography in HPI look really amatuer. I think the content of both is excellent. Speed is a dollar cheaper also.. I can only buy one occasionly cause I'm saving for the skyline....

i have subs to HPI and Drift battle. love em :rofl: i like the pure imports, not just japanese cars in aus. although that is noice. plus HPI make decent dvds, and drift battle has oone coming out soon. i rekon hot4s and autosalon are just the 'trailer queen' cars than are never really driven. whats the friggin point?

I have every issue of HPI and Speed and drift battle, great magainzes.

but I'd have to say that 'Hyper Rev - GTR specials' are my favourite.

Got 3 out of the 4.

Great pictures, good directory of performance parts aswell. too bad I can't read japanese and it's admn expensive.

yeah the Jap mags shame ours in a couple of ways. they are much more expensive though and I think the photography here is just as good. Just that they have a much wider pool of GTRs etc to draw from... when reading (well looking at Jap ones) I like GTR magazing, Club Skyline magazine is equally good and the 'I love skyline 32GTR one' is pretty damn good too.

over here I now like Autosalon mag, they have really picked up there game. Speed is good too and HPI was an old favourite I've had a sub to that for quite a few years. I also buy zoom and sometime motor too. point is I spend too much money on mags.

    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
