Where i work i deal with alot of UK imports. Some of the rust damage i see from the salted roads is unbelievable.

My girlfriend lived in Japan for a while and has been trying to talk me into doing a year long working holiday there on an english teaching program. This thread makes it seem alot more appealing showing how interesting living with a huge cultural difference could be. Every time i start self learning some japanese i always seem to get lazy and dont stick with it though. Thanks for the pics anyway Merli!

Hey i live in sydney and i have never been in a gtr. SOmeone take me for a drive!!!!!!!!

Bilsteins are very hard to get. Australia is the last in the chain so we basically get leftover stock. There are also 2 different spec shocks as well with bilstein. One is a Jap spec which is apparently no good for aussie roads and there is another spec but i cant remember the name of them. Much nicer on aussie roads and not much different with track work. I tried to get some bilsteins from heasmans about 10 months ago and they wouldnt even take a deposit from back then as they didnt know what stock or when they were going to get any stock. Buggers me how a would famous shock can work like this.

The back isnt to bad in a gtir. Not alot worse than a 2 door skyline anyway and they have heaps and heaps of room when u fold the back seats down. My friend who has one carts around half his band equipment in his and i can hardly fit a suitcase in my r33 so i dont know how you can say they dont have room for anything. Witha GTiR try to get a late moded. 93-94 and look for one that seems to have legit low k's. A gtir that has had a hard life or 3 extra years of a hard life (they have all had hard lifes) can be alot or trouble and the extra 3 years of wear will show. As always though you get what you pay for.

I went last yesterday arvo/night. I have to say i have never been a huge fan of drag racing until now. The highlight of the night was by far the Top Fuelers and as Two40 said, unfrickingbelievable!!@@!#!#!@. I have seen indy cars, f1 cars GP bikes everything but i have never experienced anything like the top fuel dragsters. Sitting half way up the hill i felt my hair been blown around and the heat hitting my face as they took off and my internal organs been shaken like they have never shaken before. Seeing the cars reaching just off 500kmh at the end of the 400m side by side has definatly turned me into a drag racing fan although i will always be a bigger circuit racing fan. The rest of the cars were good and as said before anything over an 8 second pass began to seem slow. The other thing is the WSID is an excellent facility. We will be very lucky to have a facility like this in sydney which runs weekly street meets. The night also showed me that australia has alot of depth in drag racing. Although there are only really 6 top fuelers the rest of the classes seemed fairly full and the workmanship of the cars was awesome. (you were alowed to walk through all the pits, bloody good). Anyway. I had a great night and will be attending as many major events there as i can.

My work is looking for a Car washer. How about that?

Latest news from Ferrari HQ. Michael schumachers 2006 replacement has been announced.

It happened at the bottom of Oberon street in south coogee/randwick. A skyline t-boned a 4wd in a police chase. The 4wd rolled a few times and ended up in a shop front as Hooligan said.

Ok with the new F1 season fast approaching and myself counting down the days until i head for Melbourne i thought i would post a few pictures i found just recently. They are from an old track in Germany called AVUS. It was basically 2 8km straights with a hairpin at one end and a banked corner at the other. The banked corner was 43deg at it steepest point. The cars would reach 350kph+ back in the 1930's on this track. The driver in the last two pictures was Richard von Frankenberg who actually survived this crash, most didnt. The corner was known as the wall of death.

Yeah that wasnt far from my house. Apparently they got one of the guys in the car. I wonder if the car was stolen?

I was going to go. Now im going to Camp merrick and Rosso. Im missing out on Drag combat so it better be worth it.

pic of them on the car. ZERO: Everything to see is in the pics. they are weather shields, there isnt much to them. The clip is missing on one side.

There is 1 clip missing and it has the old double sided tape which needs to be cleaned off. I removed them the day i got the car about 1.5 years ago. They are perfect, the clip that is missing was gone when they were on my car and it didnt make a difference. Im in the east of sydney.

I live around the corner from this picture. That guy has had a yellow R33 with a gtr kit for a few years. Looks like he traded up to a yellow R33 with a kakimoto kit. I have noticed he is always parked out the front of the police station there in the pic, smart guy.

Thats my mates car. Interior and paint is pretty nice although he has a problem of keeping people from kee scratching it. The car also has a fair bit of blow by, hence the smoke. Some people will buy anything with a nice paintjob and big wheels.

pictures. still for sale.

Anyone know any good aussie datto forums?

Does anyone know how much a fairly origional Datsun 240z would be worth. Condition doesnt really matter as long as it wouldnt have to much rust. I know it would be a hard car to find in a fairly stock form. Anyway anyone know what sort of price i would be looking at?

still for sale. check Pm.

Ok, $80 ono.

I have a set of weathershileds for an r33. One clip is missing but id say it wouldnt matter or be hard to get one. Make me an offer.

Wasnt ONARUN on an old blue pulsar with an tiny little intercooler?

I used to own a Auto sr20de silvia. I got sick of the auto and went and got myself a manual box for the car so i thought i may as well see how strong the auto box is. After most of the night continually dummping the thing from N to D at 7500rpm it finally went bang, spilled alot of oil and wouldnt drive any more. Also got airborn in it and broke the front bumber on landing and one of the headlights fell out. I have been very good to my skyline. I dont want to hurt it just yet.

Hoyts at Fox Studios. Cant get any better.
