  1. Nah but the year before I was.... I'd say 1 in 10 women bared some titty.
  2. red shirt red shirt red shirt.....
  3. Only annoying thing about that Ebay Seller is it is shipped from Hong Kong. I've been "watching" the Nokia 6230's and Ericsson K700i's.
  4. They would look smick on a Black R32 GTR
  5. I'll be there again. Hopefully the cops are a bit more relaxed on Braddon as the Nats at the beginning of this year was disappointing compared with the year before. I seen about 20 Skylines last year but I go to the Nats for the throaty v8 burnouts and the women (all 3 of them that showed their tits last year haha). Hopefully the weather is nice and not too hot. I might take my work van, throw a mattress in the back and sleep in that.
  6. Hopefully another groupbuy can be organised in early Feb and I can get 1 then
  7. Would have to agree (Nokia 6230, new , boxed, delivered for ~$450), but each to their own.
  8. That I envy and would be extremely happy if I could replicate this.

    Murphys Law ! Last friday I missed my alarm, arrived 2hrs late at work (which was still only 6am instead of 4am) and caused a lot of extra mucking around for a few other people. So today I arrived 25mins early to make up for it to find the company I contract for is on strike and get told to do a few things and then go home Went and did 2hrs and $100 later i'm back home in bed
  10. That's quite easy to do at the drags just from experience and knowledge. In some races you can make 0.75sec on the other driver just in reaction time and 0.25sec in 60ft time, so theirs 1 full second in the first 20m which has absolutely nothing at all to do with engine power. At 1 of my last drags I did I raced a forum member whom had around 250-260rwkw (180rwkw for me). I knew he'd get me easily in the TS so I made an extra effort to get off the line before him and make him run me down. As above I had him easily in the Reaction and 60ft and even by 3/4 track but in the last 100m when his turbo kicked in he blew past me like I was standing still. I did a 14.1sec and he did a low 13sec pass. They are 2 completely different things. A Dyno measures how much power your engine is making minus the drivetrain loss giving a result. It doesn't matter whether it's your mum revving out your engine or the guy from your local fish & chip shop as it is still going to give the same result on that dyno. A 1/4 Mile drag race measures how good your suspension setup is, traction, accelleration, top end, driver ability, track preperation, weather conditions, experience, knowledge and how big your balls are. I'd be pretty happy with that. I think 108mph (not knowing what your 60ft was) would be good for a 12.9sec pass though, hell I see torana's doing low 12's with only 108mph every wednesday night so its not the TS but more so the first 330ft is where all the time is made, after that it comes down to just pure horsepower. I wish, i'm at ~180rwkw and can't for the life of me beat a 14.1sec I'm determined to break into the 13's before I sell my car though.
  11. If you want to end up behind bars and with a massive fine. Converting VHS and selling on Ebay is just as illegal as burning/selling copies of WinXP.Their is a proper box set of the Bathurst races available at HMV for like $120 http://www.hmv.com.au/product/DVD.asp?sku=804856
  12. Do you still have the center console lid ? (or even just the little clip that locks it shut) ?
  13. www.numberplates.com.au for a laugh.
  14. www.wsid.com.au
  15. Looks pretty clean, good luck!
  16. Can't see ?
  17. *raises hand*
  18. Bah drop your tyre pressure to around 15psi, it works for many others. You'd be looking at like a 13.6sec or so if you could get flat 2's for your 60ft. I was getting consistent 2.0-2.1's on $230ea 225/50/16 Michelins and still my best is only a 14.1 grr
  19. Bahh my work van can fit a mattress in the back, i'd like to see a Skyline do that :wassup:
  20. *subscribed*
  21. Someone mention whores ?
  22. What model are the Splitfire Coils mate ?
  23. Do a search for SydneyKids R34 GTT specs. He has a 500hp GCG Hiflow running ~265rwkw (from memory).
  24. Mine is slooowly starting to flat spot "now and then" again, I only drive it 50km a week tho. If I wasn't selling it I would have fitted new Splitfire coils 2mths ago
