I think F&F use a brand of oil called United something or other. They have got copies of letters from various motor companies like BMW etc plastered over the walls endorsing it for use in their cars. Should be ok as long as it's full synthetic and around the correct weight. I just bought some Castrol R 5w30 from Supercrap for about $45 to try out next oil change. cheers JD

And the winner is...................Southside!! (Here's where I expect to get flamed or somethin)But I work on the Northside........................

Thanks, appreciate the welcomes. My 'line is silver and pretty much stock at the moment. The guy out at BDL reckons it's an M Spec (whatever that means?), the first mod is out with the standard stereo and in with an MP3 player. I had to drive the car all the way back from Sydney with no cd's and only the AM radio, at one stage I nearly tuned into 1053 2CA, but managed to turn it off just in time. Plans for the future are probably all stuff you guys have already got - FMIC, bigger pipe, filter, cranked up boost etc. Over the last couple of days I have discovered that skylines are "interesting" to drive in the wet - that wanky snow mode on the A/T actually comes in handy for something after all... See you on the street sometime. JD

Hi Folks, Just bought a '96 R33 GTST and have finally waded through all the bulls***t that goes with transferring an interstate car into the ACT, so thought I would drop by and say hi to all you good people. I must say this is a fantastic site, and the stuff I have found on here has helped me out a lot as a virginal skyline newbie . The other thing that I have noticed is that nearly every time I am out driving around I see all these other Skylines that I never noticed before, and nearly everyone waves (can't ever recall that happening in the ol' Falcon, or at least they didn't wave with all their fingers). Tres cool!! cheers John (or "JD" to those more familiar with my drinking habits)
