Silver'sR33

Welcome Looking at a new alarm soon myself...still haven't decided. That Viper looks nice but it ain't cheap (esp. after decent installation) and isn't black wired. Some bargains on Ebay for like half price etc....not sure yet.

Seen a black 33 GTR at UQ twice in the last week too rego GTR 29 driven by *gasp* a chick.

Excellent, if you could look it up on FAST that would be awesome.

Hmm it's wierd, I've never, ever had anyone try and take me at traffic lights, or say anything derogatory to me, maybe I just haven't had the car for long enough

Slide just plays the 'respectful' card to get what he wants She must be a girl not to recognise this tactic....

lol funny as... and photos wouldn't prove anything anyway

Yeah if it was a silver v-spec with stock rims...I saw it at UQ last week, never seen it before tho. Looked like an earlier 33 gt-r but had series III headlights I think?

I like xenon-lit dinners, romantic drags and long burnouts along the beach....

Congrats mate Hey what's the difference compared to driving silvia? I've never driven one.

Us Skyline boys like to take pairs of pulsars and drop them side by side into our engine bays. :devil1:

This one looks pretty good to me...bah I can't tell the difference, I'm no professional but this Rhino seems to have all the listed things that everyone talks about and it's $189 http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...me=STRK:MEWA:IT Dunno if it fits insurance standards but my insurance (Suncorp) doesn't require me to have an alarm anyway, they never even asked me if I had one.

Truly though wouldn't it be better to be comparing S15 with R34 GTT if possible? They're more in the same price range. You can sometimes get two R33s for the price of an S15..also the R34 would be around the same age so that wouldn't be an issue either. I've never driven any silvias, what are S13s like to drive? they look like they'd be lighter and more nimble than skylines

How much to put an R32 front on a R34? I wanna sileighty, I used to think they were the ugliest things around, now they look sweet to me how wierd is that.

Well, dunno if it was nissan or the previous owner but it sure is messing with me... You know what would be cool? If before these cars went to auction the sellers had to fill out a (very short) form. Stuff like how many previous owners, what factory options it came with, any modifications etc....and the goddamn service manuals (even in japanese!!)

I wonder if S2s only have this? If so, then what do S2s have that S1s don't...apart from tasteful decor (sorry, just kidding)

Hey if you want fuel economy get the famous GTS "Urban Runner" heh...affectionately nicknamed "Urban Walker"

BTW you'd think there'd have to be a way to get the R34 taillights on there too eh...it's the backend that gives it away.

I'd love to know how he got those xenons through compliance intact. Hey maybe we should put down a deposit and take her for a test drive >

I wish we got the Japanese nissan names and cars here...I wanna see Glorias and Laurels being advertised lol

Well the one I saw at UQ (and is linked up the top) is an 88 coupe that I think is navy and silver two tone

Ok well let's take a count: who else has one of these in the boot of their R33?

Yeah but not cars that (to most onlookers) appear to average 80's japanese sedans

Yeah I saw that blue one at UQ in the carpark last week, had never even heard of a leopard before, almost walked around and had a good look but didn't want to look like a tool cos there were people around Newer one looks awesome from photos

Actually, just put one line in 4wd rego forms: "Warning: if another motorist or pedestrian is found to have suffered a fatality due your driving a 4wd without a professional reason you will be held liable for manslaughter" That ought to scare a few clayfield mums off. Anyway, if you kill someone through negligence or inappropriate use of equipment with anything else it's manslaughter, so why not 4wds? Imagine I'm licensed to own and use a rifle (or I don't even need a license). I'm using the rifle to open bottles in my front yard when I miss and kill a pedestrian walking past. The law would rule that I can't say it was just a freak accident since it's irresponsible to use a rifle to open a bottle. Yet someone can use a 2 ton truck to go to the hairdresser, lose control on the way back and plough into a compact car killing the occupants and walk away without penalty.

On ACA a few months ago they showed these 4wd mums in sydney picking their kids up from private schools, they were getting tickets for illegal parking etc and were just laughing in the parking officer's faces because the fines were nothing to them... In Paris and London the mayors have said that they are strongly considering banning 4wds from the city as they are not made for it, congestion is a critical problem and any car that is larger than it needs to be is causing a lot of problems. They also showed that a large 4wd with a V8 is slower to accelerate (and stop obviously) than a hyundai excel. That means that in stop-start traffic, 4wds cause more traffic by causing a delay every time one has to accelerate. Just ban the damn things.
