    New P-plate Laws!

    a series 1 R32 gtst is lighter because it does not have side intrusion bars etc. That little weight reduction technically makes it illegal for P-Platers Although im not 100% sure if police know this, and probably would just assume all r32's are legal.
  3. Hey, I have a couple of r32 clear indicators coming from Japan. I currently have the common clears on my car but have come across a new style indicator. The lense cover has been changed in order to hide the ugly yellow bulb which is visible in the older,cheaper style clear indicators Picture here; http://img518.imageshack.us/img518/1781/sklclear321se7.jpg Only a couple will arrive from Japan in 2-5 weeks. If you would like me to reserve you a pair please send me a PM. Looking at about $225 delivered a percentage of each sale on sau will be donated to sau Thanks Patrick
  4. a gtr screen can fit directly and will work on a GTT There is a thread on the forums on how to do it. Can also be made to work on R33 and R32's Problem is they cost $1500+ lol
  5. haha that AUDI ALLROAD is like $100k+ looks real nice but. Also a rare car i found; HSV avalanche http://www.carsales.com.au/used-cars/deale...matchallpartial They're leaning towards the Ford Territory, Mitsubishi Triton, murano and cx7. Sti's can come with tow bars right? Cheers all for the help haha
  6. This car was for sale in Victoria last week? It sold a day after my friend inspected it? Did you pick it up?
  7. zodiac so slow/boring, felt like walking out of cinema. I think its a movie for 80yr old's though lol
  8. Not only that but you have increased your rolling diameter by 5.22% http://www.chris-longhurst.com/carbibles/tyre_bible.html
  9. mm the navara looks alright, but it looks more of a trade/young person car. Cant really picture a 50yr old with a suit popping out to business meetings etc haha Thanks for the quick replies Keep em coming
  10. Hey, Parents are looking for a new car and wanted to ask SAU for their opinions Basically the requirements are; - Needs enough power to pull a trailer with 500kg+ of parts - Able to drive on country roads as his work involves consultation at mining industries. - Doesnt want a hatch; so no VW golf, xr5 etc - Needs to have 5 seats - Large car basically, but not huge like Landcruiser or other big 4wd's - Wouldnt mind an audi, bmw etc dont think something would fit with the above reqs - Car needs to be easy to use around city as majority of business is consulting with other companies. Some car's which we have discussed are; - Ford Territory - Toyota Hilux - Nissan Navara - Ford xr8 or xr6t or force6 or GT - Holden Crewman S or SS - Holden Adventra - Subaru of some sort, havent been to any dealers to check any out - Mazda cx7 Anyone have any recommendations? Thanks Patrick
  11. One thing ive noticed is that cops like to sit in your blind spot haha Happened to me several times, do a headcheck and spot a cop lol Ive cruised past cops, with cops and they dont seem to bother. I travel through Knox every day and never been hassled. Lets hope it stays that way
  12. Can anyone with a 60th Anniversary R32 please post up their VIN number? Would like to see what month of 1993 they released the Anniv edition. Mine is August/1993 but doesnt have any anniversary bonuses Cheers
  13. haha cool! i want a black one >.<
  14. lol yeah a rebuilt gearbox is somewhere on the to-do list. but in the mean time, best to squeeze as much life out of the current one before it dies
  15. meh comes down to your driving attitude and place/time. Ive been driving my car as a daily for a year and not once have i been pulled over.
  16. eh? didnt you miss the step where you blip on the throttle as your in neutral, just before u shift into 2nd? In cold mornings it wont even shift into 2nd for me. Pop it into neutral, a slight blip on the throttle, and then it easily slides into 2nd
  17. haha +1 I dont feel like wasting their time with my r32 gtst either I drive from Ferntree Gully (live up the road from racepace) to recustoms instead
  18. count me in too

    Test Drive

    lol took 3 people to ask when its on; Sunday, 8 July, 2007 Nine 12pm Test Drive (G) Test Drive puts viewers in the driver's seat of the latest cars, boats, motorbikes and gadgets and gives you the inside scoop on what's new and what's hot! from www.yourtv.com.au
  20. BAM!! http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...l=steering+rack I purchased mine from Repco, only a couple of dollars each Enjoy
  21. oo real nice Chris-06R Did yours come with the anniversary key + gold badges? Mine basically looks exactly like yours (1993) although it didnt include all the anniversary features Another 60th anniversary bonus, i believe, is the chrome lip running ontop of the frontbar. http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/7897/chromelipvg2.jpg Also does your horn button blend in with the steering wheel material? Ive picked up a series 1 steering wheel but they have a shiny plastic horn button instead.
  22. you say you were warming up your car outside? Do you let your car idle for x amount of minutes when you start or arrive home? A minute of idling to you may sound nothing but to someone woken up at 2am it seems longer/louder than that. Have a chat to her and possibly change your warmiing up/down methods. Best way to warm up car is to drive it below 3000rpm not let it sit for 1-2 minutes idling. 30seconds is all thats needed and you can start driving. Same applies for warming down, if you take it easy 5mins before you arrive home there is no need for turbo timer/letting it idle for x amount of minutes. Idling doesnt warm up/down gearbox, diff etc so its pointless. If you dont idle the car in the morning/when you return disregard all the above ive said. Sure you can say GAGF etc but she can always report you to EPA regardless if your car is legal or not.. I have same problem with neighbour so I try and keep car quiet as possible when i arrive/leave home
  23. 18. Dont get caught slowing down R33GTS25 cause he sounds like an angry person
  24. yeah the rims dont seem to stick outside the guard. Pulled out a measuring stick and was lining it up to see haha Frontbar has scuff from Japan. The previous owner had no idea (bumper scuff and wrong offsets sigh haha) suspension has been purchased so will see how it goes kyb shocks with hks springs - a temp solution until i can afford some fancy blistein/whitline If there will be problems ill just have to sell/trade the rims Thanks all!
