  1. If you read the thread it says that the driver is recovering. Pretty bloody lucky though it's a shame about the car. EDIT: He's very very lucky...
  2. That's the accident someonestolecc... Cheers for the info guys!
  3. My car's actually a pretty decent height. It's no lower than my mate's Ford XR6. The car was in Mosman under the gym fitness first.
  4. Hey people, Today I had a pretty sh*tty day of driving. First thing, parking my car outside the RTA (in order to submit my transfer of registration form) I decide to reverse park to show off my elite parking skills to the passenger. Unbenownst to me, I'm not fully straight so I slowly scratch my back left rim (although it's a relatively small scratch it's still my first blemish on the car ). Then tonight, whilst driving into a car park and as I'm telling my girlfriend how I scratched my rim, suddenly SCRRRRRRRR.... I scratch the bloody right back rim on a really sharp cornered and narrow curve in the car park (badly planned carpark - never parking there again). This scratch is alot worse and spans about 20 cms.. I won't bother fixing either for a while (out of fear I'll do it again as I am still new to the car). Also I'm getting new rims eventually (they are stock atm) so it's not the worst thing ever... Anyway, just as I think things can't get worse, I pull out of my mate's street into a road I know has a speed camera (I've driven there many times). This time my mind is slightly off the task, and I give it a bit of gas (not much) pulling out into the street with the camera, in order to get in before traffic comes. Next thing 2 flashes. Now I think I may have been going about 57 - 58 km/h in a 50 zone. But I was heading towards the camera, and at the same time 2 cars passed the camera going in the opposite direction (I had basically passed out of view of the camera when it would have flashed). The other cars also seemed to be driving pretty fast. I'm just wondering if you think I'll get a speeding ticket? I've always thought the cameras could only get you if you are heading in the direction the camera faces (not towards it). It really pisses me off since I know there's a camera there, and I've been driving everywhere really cautiously in the wet (learning the limits of corners in my new car). Also I wouldn't even consider speeding since less than 2 weeks ago girls I know were in a horrific accident in which one was killed due to speeding. Anyway, cheers for listening to my whinge. I know that I probably wouldn't even lose points if I did get photographed, but I'm just interested in whether speed cameras can catch you from the front or not.
  5. If its a lightning decal, that guy goes to my uni...
  6. Hey, I got this Playstation 2 free with a mobile phone deal. It has been used less than 10 times and still is in its box (the DVD remote hasn't been touched). The package includes 1 x Sony Playstation 2 Console 1 x Sony Playstation 2 Controller 1 x Sony Playstation 2 DVD remote and the driving game Burnout. I need to sell it since I just bought an Xbox, and already have a gamecube, and owning all 3 consoles is a tad excessive. Price is $200 ono I would prefer to do a direct face to face deal with a person in Sydney, but am also willing to send interstate at the buyers expense. Package comes boxed with instructions, and the actual console should still be under warranty I believe (since I got it less than a year ago). Please don't hesitate to contact me with questions or offers, by either email ([email protected]) or PM. Cheers!
  7. Hey everyone, I've been told by my dad to try and sell our 2 person Kayak (it's has been replaced by 2 single person kayaks we bought a year or so ago). It has been used about 5 times and is in excellent condition (near perfect). It was manufactured by the Aussie kayak company Q Craft, and is the Estuary model. It comfortably holds two adults and has a handy storage compartment, as well as a foot pedal operated rudder system. I will measure the dimensions of it next time I visit it in storage (at my other house). Pictures will also be available on request. The price I am asking is $1500 ono. Obviously it would be a very difficult item to transport interstate so I would prefer a NSW buyer. If you are interested interstate, but are worried about the condition of the kayak I will happily take more pictures and even video footage if requested (to get a feel for the dimensions etc). If shipped interstate, buyer will cover the costs of postage. Please don't hesitate to email me ([email protected]) or PM me for further details or to express interest. I will also pass on further contact details if you are genuinely interested in speaking to me in person. Cheers!
  8. Hey, I won this steering wheel about 4 years ago in a magazine competition. It was the top model at the time, and it's in perfect condition (used once), and comes with all the relevant software. It has been boxed it's whole life, and is being sold to try and account for some of the money I just spent on buying an xbox. Details Name: WingMan: Formula Force GP Price: $80 ono (please if you think it's too expensive, PM me an offer!) Details: http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm?page=pro...19&languageid=1 I would really prefer it if it was sold within NSW. Otherwise buyer pays for shipping. Please don't hesitate to email ([email protected]) or PM me for further details. Cheers!
  9. Ok thanks, I'll have to get them checked out.
  10. I assume you mean 2 controllers? Please pm me or reply to this thread if you are interested in my offer. Please don't get offended either.
  11. Oh another thing, when I try to adjust the passengers mirror, and I press it all the way down (to look at the gutter for example), when it gets past a certain point it starts an awkward clicking. Maybe that entire mirror's electricals is screwed...
  12. Hey guys, I just have a few questions about my driving experiences so far in the new car (an N/A R34 25GT) 1.) Is only the driver's side mirror meant to fold in when you choose to fold in ur mirrors. 2.) Sometimes I struggle to get the gear box back into first if I am still above 20 km/h. I know that you generally only goto 20km before changing, but I'm wondering if this is normal anyway. Also I sometimes struggle to get into 3rd from second (there is slight resistance). Maybe I'm not getting the clutch fully down... 3.) Is the auto window always meant to work? For some reason it will always go down auto matically, but will only go up automatically if I'm in gear or have driven recently. If say for example I just turn the car on in neutral and try it, it won't do anything. I'll probably post a few more things as they come to light. My handbrake is pretty lose at the moment, so I need to get that straightened out. Other than that I love this car
  13. Jeez it sounds like you've had nothing but trouble from those sprayers. GL
  14. Ill give you 475$ and I'll pay for the shipping? (cash on delivery)
  15. For weight figures/dimensions and general information about any skyline, check out this site: http://english.auto.vl.ru/catalog/ Hope this helps
  16. I guess I should really check if my CD stacker supports MP3's (doubtful though since its close to 5 years old). At the moment I have a 4 stacker CD player linked to the stock Skyline tape deck. So I plan on getting a replacement for the stock tape deck (I'm assuming I can set it up so it performs the same job but with proper FM frequencies, a better looking head unit, and more functions). Maybe I could even install an MP3 or MD player instead of the tape deck.

  19. That's quite a decent effort sock. I like it. I would go for a darker look though, perhaps gray? I just seem to like gray in websites (as seen here - http://www.nsperformanceclub.com) I think that gray would suit that header better. A nice effort though mate!
  20. Oh and by the way guys, if you're a fan of trance sign up for http://www.trancetribe.com Its a great underground Aussie trance site which is quickly gaining recognition from sponsors such as nova 96.9 Check it out
  21. Fark I'm glad to hear other Skyliners listen to trance. I always have 3 out of 4 cds as trance (I have over 1600 trance tracks). And I'm not talking DK Sammy, I'm talking Solid Globe, Filo and Peri and the more known AVB, PVD, Corsten etc... I love playing entire sets as well. ATM my fave set is a classic Chicane set from 2000, and a newest tunes selected ASOT from early last year...
  22. Incorrect - Just Cars and alot of other insurance companies don't differentiate between turbos and N/As
  23. I would prefer to keep my engine if I can. It's in pristine condition with low kms. I just don't know if it's a possibility though. I always thought that you should be able to tune your aftermarket turbo to outperform a stock turbo, but with all the discussion of low psi, compression ratios etc, how is this possible? What exactly is the discrepency between low boost and high boost. Different rev ranges? I'm a clueless newbie in this department :|
  24. Here are some more pics. I'll post even more when I get a memory card for my own digital camera. The other cars pictured are my mates Series II 180SX and another mates Aus Spec 300zx... I think some of you will agree seeing the whole car from its side, that the wing actually looks great in perspective with the rest of the body.
