  1. Nope, that was another member from ozvr4.com
  2. While I agree a hilux isn't a small car and wouldnt fit the criteria, the VR4s and JZX100's are the same size as a 4 door skyline... and I didnt see any remarks against the 4 door in the photos
  3. Thanks mitchy, I think the AVS Model 5 style really suit
  4. When the wife learns how to NOT plow the parking stops in car parks with the front bar... which she has already done once
  5. From the carsafe.com website (a little old but doubt times have changed)
  6. Oh the ironic timing - I recieved this via email late yesterday:
  7. Luke - neither did mine, but Chef's got plenty of stickers which he would provide you one if you ask
  8. Maybe I'm odd - but I added my badge of honour..... I believe in helping those who help us.
  9. That's not actually necessarily true. He could take the car, drive straight to the bank and cancel the bank cheque stating he no longer requires it. You go to the bank to deposit the cheque, and what do you know - no car and no $$$ Deposit it ASAP if you want the money for your car
  10. Welcome (soon) to our humble little town. Technically all you need is an ID inspection, BUT if they suspect the car is modified they can send it for a full inspection. I dont think re-shelling is required (as mentioned), BUT you will want to have the car stock looking. If you have some photo's to see what it looks like will definately help. Drags is dead in the water (as mentioned) but circuit and drift is still pretty active. We only have the one track Mallala, which is a pity, but its usually pretty busy there with practice days, club sprints etc. check out www.mallala.com Workshops recommended in adelaide include Boostworx (for all things nissan) Morpowa, Southern Hi-Tech Dyno, etc. Plenty of choice with parts being just as avaialbe as the rest of aust. Definitely idiots and enthusiasts. For enthusiast best joining actual clubs that participate in events, eg. Club PSi, Nissan Datsun Owners Club etc, forums tend to contain more idiots than enthusiasts. If you can afford it, eastern Suburbs like Norwood, kensington, magill etc. Or inner south such as Unley, Clapham, even Blackwood etc are all good. Again, welcome B)
  11. So comparing to some of the other lap records: Porsche Cup Cars Matt Coleman (Porsche GT3) 01:11.8 4/08/2002 Saloon Cars Bruce Heinrich (EA Falcon) 01:20.6 29/06/2002 Improved Production Adam Allan (Datsun) 01:16.2 22/08/1998 V8 Supercars Greg Murphy (Commodore) 01:08.1 13/07/1997 Super Touring Brad Jones (Audi) 01:10.3 19/07/1998 That's pretty damn impressive - enter it into improved production without any improvements! LOL
  12. The magic Question I think
  13. To all those saying you must buy "jap rims" this is what wheelworx can supply It's all about knowing what offset you need and ordering accordingly, NOT going to Knob Jane and asking for "rims that will fit your skyline" because then you will get whatever they have in 5x114.3 in absolute shit offset
  14. What can I say flick, having a child changes you - as you can see I have put on weight in my guts, lost height and gone bald!
  15. I find that quote interesting. At Targa West an R35 GTR won over many well setup cars such as Evo's, 911's etc. So surely it wont be too long before an R35 wins other Targa events ahead of the older GTRs? (none entered in Targa West unfortunately)
  16. Here's me:
  17. mmmmm, new shoes for the Leggy! 18x8 +38 HR Racing 109, 235/40/18 Federal 595ss tyres
  18. BIM Zeit alloys (made by bridgeston Japan) 17x7.5 +47. As came from Japan with my Legnum. They do have gutter rash on each wheel, however I can sand them back and can have sprayed in whatever colour you wish. Tyres are 215/45/17 Yokohama S Drives with approx 70% tread left. Tyres are absolutely fantastic, very grippy, and with the wheels cleaned up will be excellent package. Asking $650 with tyres, or $400 without tyres and I will sand and spray the wheels to remove gutter rash as seen here on my legnum ROH Drift R's sold
  19. ROH Drift R's Sold BIM Zeit still available
  20. Offset iof the Zeit's is +47 (as stated) so would probably need some sort of spacer to fill the guards of a skyline. Example of the rash is here:
  21. Item: Set 1 - ROH Drift R, 17x8 +35 & Falken FK452 tyres Age: unknown Condition: Excellent - 0 gutter rash. Price: Asking $700 with the tyres, or $550 without tyres To Fit: Skyline (32,33,34), Stage, Legnum - 5x114.3 Location: Adelaide - Souther Suburbs Contact: Post here or PM me Comments: Perfect offset for Legnum/Skyline/Stagea with 0 gutter rash!

  22. Agreed on that point steve, east west does become a pain to work on haha, I've had both a 33 and a "magna wagon" But still, running a legnum against a 260RS isn't really a fair comparison. Against a normal RS4 is reasonable
  23. Blasphemy!!! Stags are Volvo wannabe's - just look at the boxy ass end and bug eye headlights?!, How can you say that's sexy?
  24. Keep spotting a gunmetal Grey R32 GTR in Sheidow Park with R34 GTR wheels & some sort of aftermarket front bar, veildisde maybe? Dont think much of the front bar but the 34 wheels on the 32 is just sex!
  25. woh, thats some farkin wide tyres Agreed - I wish I had 3 meter wide slicks on my car
