  1. hey dj, yeah i think i know what you meant - like there is only like 2cm of movement in the clutch pedal between no contact and full contact?
  2. how much does a clutch similar to the factory r33 gtst cost?
  3. i didn't know speed cameras went off for going too slow, you queenslanders are a funny sort! (jokes!) sorry to hear about your mishaps. i always chirp the wheels in the wet cos i have crap wet tyres (simex). i went to bob jane a couple of days ago and they have falkens there for like $175 each which the guy reckons perform reasonably against the dunlop fm901s in the wet (and dry), so i think i am going to "invest" in them for my next set of rubber
  4. the chicks in imports could also just be girlfriends borrowing the car
  5. hi guys, i am thinking of getting this front bar instead of my stock S2 + chin spoiler. this is a photo of my current front bar. check out the attachment (the front bar i am thinking of getting) which one do you think looks better? and does anyone know what brand/style that new spoiler is? -tim
  6. garyd: they should insure under 25s (i am 21 and they insured me) but it's their discretion based on your record

    when is the tokyo motor show? do you think they will unveil it in 2003?
  8. if you're a NAMED driver and do not hold the policy in your own name, you have no NCB. If you are with, say, GIO, they have their own *INTERNAL* NCB schemes. They told me that they give me an increase in my GIO NCB at half the normal rate of increase (e.g. 1yr no claims normally means 10% increase, but I get 5%). If I get my own car and get a GIO policy under my own name, they will honour my internal GIO NCB, so I don't have to start from scratch. But it doesn't mean jack to any other insurance company. It's their discretion whether or not to honour it. Hope this helps.
  9. summoner, they had no issues with insuring me and my friend (both 21) for a skyline and s15 200sx respectively.
  10. I'm with famous. no claims (touch wood). Robyn and Tommy were helpful and gave me the best price for my car. I'm pretty happy with what I've read on this thread in regards to their reputation. P.S. I got my policy / receipt within a week of signing up for those who didn't get it.
  11. suki sucked. latino chick = H-O-T-T
  12. the convertible was a mitsu that is all i recall. eclipse convertible maybe?
  13. ahah i bet they are saying "if the supra didn't crash it would have taken the skyline" on the supra forums
  14. agreed, i love the new banner was that photo taken at milsons point? or was it a photoshop job with 2 photos?
  15. it was funny when he calls "brian" and asks if he wants to run and he goes "yeah i need the money", then proceeds to get into a 150k+ car. anyway, hot cars, hot chicks, it's all good! i'm not normally a rice fan, but it was the time and the place.. you couldn't really have cars WITHOUT stickers in the movie! i loved how they filmed the first race scene. and at least they kept it correct (skyline and supra in a diff league to the s2000 and rx-7! *flame* *flame*!)
  16. so they wind from the front of the dash (where driver sits) and not the back (engine bay)?
  17. mmm i hope against hope that it wasn't a wound back odo, but i have no real way of telling - the car itself is in fine condition
  18. http://202.139.242.57/pricelists/Price%20l...3%20Styling.htm do a keyword search for "chin" on that page and you will see it. i have that nismo chin spoiler on my car
  19. mmmm very interesting not very good news if it's true
  20. i'm more interested in having a fully functioning car than getting a couple extra grand resale and having 1 mega pissed off person i sold it to
  21. Hi, My odo is stuck on 49999 and my trip counter has also stopped on something like 23.6km. I reset the trip, and they are still not incrementing. Does anyone know what component could have failed? Cheers, Tim
  22. Okay, I'll contribute more than this... I love the WRX, it used to be the car I wanted but bang for buck and 2nd hand Skyline was cheaper than a 2nd hand WRX (I wanted MY98+). And I didn't realise till I started looking at the 'line that a 2 door was what I really wanted (before I was 100% set on a sedan). Anyway, good point - if you need practicality, I'd go the STi. I think the new STis are awesome, they look hot and they fly. But a 350Z would be what I'd pick if I had the dosh cos it suits me right now (the whole 2 door thing). I haven't had the luck to drive either a WRX or 350Z though But I really doubt either car would be disappointing [enough to change what I think].
