  1. Keep an eye on the R31 forums, they come up for sale every now and again. Alternatively, NISPARES sells them for $440 a pair. But at those prices, it may be worth waiting for a pair to pop up for private sale.
  2. I'd post a pic of my car, but it has a new look every week. :uh-huh:
  3. bah, I'm not a member of that particular Commodore forum, and I'm not going to register just to read what they have to say. Anything a Commo can do, a Skyline can do better! (And look good while it's doing it. ) Pace car: Wedding cars: Convertible: (How many convertible Commodores have you seen?) Police car:
  4. Check out this page too, it has some hot wagons! http://www.geocities.co.jp/MotorCity-Race/5743/ ~*drool*~
  5. I think some people are confused about ctcss. What happens with ctcss, is the radios send a signal to each other (similar to a selcall) to tell the radio that it is OK to receive the signal from that particular station. Enabling ctcss wont help if you are travelling in a group of people. UHF signals are received by strength. Example: If there are 5 cars, and you are at the back, and want to talk to the car at the front, you enable ctcss, and the car in front of you is talking, you will not be able to receive the transmission from the car you are wanting to talk to, because the radio won't be able to receive the transmission of the little code if there is a stronger signal between you and the car you want to talk to. (It will not receive the transmission of the person one car ahead, it will block it, but because the transmission is still there, it will block the receiving/transmissiion capabilities of cars further away.) OK, if you don't understand how RF works, then that may not make any sense, but with all that said, you can just change channels up or down a few from where the main group are talking.
  6. GiJOr33 & acsplit are both named Andrew ash3 and R31 Nismoid are both named Ash Maybe we should just call everyone by forum names to avoid confusion. :confused:
  7. Am I missing something here? Where's the attachment? :confused:
  8. Yeah, I'm gonna bag you in a minute, with lots of plastic and tape. I didn't bag anything. I was just saying, that as far as UHF radios go, theres no point in spending heaps if you're only using it for cruising. GiJOr33 there aren't many active repeaters around Melbourne. There is one in Berwick (channel 3), and one located somewhere around the city (channel 2) but due to the decline in the use of UHF radios, and the increasing cost of running a repeater, the repeaters have just gradually shut down and haven't re-opened. (This includes channel 5 emergency which is no longer available) Don't buy a radio just because it's advertising duplex as a feature, most of the cheaper (under $100) ones have duplex function as well.
  9. Ambz, you don't need to associate with the likes of MCCR. I have some unresolved issues with admin over there, and I am free to post, but I choose not to, because they honestly have no idea about anything. One night a few of us went for a little drive, and we were literally terrorised by a bunch of cars with MCCR stickers on. These cars were speeding, changing lanes dangerously, trying to run us off the road, and just making @ssholes out of themselves. I went and started a thread asking for an explaination of the behaviour. They responded by removing my post, and telling me that "if I have a problem, I should take it up with an admin" Well, the problem wasn't with an admin, the problem was with the illegal and dangerous behaviour of the people involved in games at 80+kph on a public road. I was told off for 'attacking' members, when all I was trying to do, was draw attention to the fact that people see them when they are out on the road, and people notice that they have MCCR stickers on their cars, and how the irrational actions of a few morons reflects on them all. I was fobbed off. Not good enough. /end rant
  10. I think it's rather silly to bother with radios with scramble mode. Mainly for the reason that the hand helds have a range of only around 1km. :uh-huh: Dick Smith sell a perfectly good hand held for $99 for 2. The unit price is $79.88 but you can buy them in pairs for $99. These are the radios that a lot of our members use, and they work a treat! More info, click here Also, those of us that already have radios or scanners can still use our existing ones.
  11. Matt you forgot "The Last Wagon" They have some killer wagons on that site, and if you click the link that says R31 skyline.com, you can see pics of our members cars. hehe the Japanese actually like our cars! (Either that, or they're poking fun at us!!)
  12. He asked there.... but I don't think we were enough help
  13. Unfortunately in Victoria they don't need a radar to book you. They can still book you for speeding if they follow you at a certain speed over a certain distance.
  14. Hi & welcome! This is gonna get moved.... can I start the countdown? 10.......
  15. My opinion....... Leave 15 minutes earlier for your appointments.
  16. Canberra styling gallery also make a (rather lame) body kit for the 31. Click here
  17. I think you have a problem with your browser.. Go to www.r31skylineclub.com and hold down your shift key and hit refresh/reload

    Omg Inasnt!!!

    .....not to forget terrorising the general road using public.
  20. T03 (or bigger!)
  21. oh dear.... I actually thought this thread was someone mucking around..
  22. Mildman, um no, I don't think so. The RB30DETT was never put into a production car. rx7machine, yes the dollar is our currency (AUD$) Here is an earlier model with an RB26DETT, so you may be able to squeeze an RB25 in there.
  23. :wavey: I am. ....and thank you.
