  1. spotted about 4 million emergency vehicles tearing about the roads today, i do wish people would behave when its raining...
  2. sorta why i liked the celsior; "its just a camry with a fancy badge." "its a bit loud." "yeah, toyotas and exhaust leaks go hand in hand...*cough*"
  3. and she was probably a swampy. so your point is null and void. even though i know swampys are your type... no one else is gonna want a car that only pulls that...
  4. lulz. i have that spoiler. shame it wont be painted til next week.
  5. yup, still got the nismo item. it was a shits and giggle purchase, gonna use it on sunday.
  6. oh, har-de-har-har. no, its mine, i bought it for extra jdm rep points.
  7. its elizabeth. i hope none of that actually surprised you.
  8. stupid gearknobs are awesome.
  9. 2x 225/45/17 Antyre HP188 tyres. have shit loads of tread left, one has a fair bit of camber wear though. but mount the worn one on the left side and youre set. probably more suited for someone that needs a set of thrash tyres, but whatever. chasin $120 for the pair. PM me or gimme a call or message on 0408961657
  10. having a problem with a ballast. PM sent.
  11. sigh, had my HID's installed by Ric today, worked awesome, had em on most of the time i was getting around (had to get tyres, wheel alignment, wanky gear knob, stuff to make my car look respectable on sunday), get home mid afternoon, realise id forgotten milk (funny that, never forgotten milk before), jump back out to the car, start it up, pop the headlights on, and bang, only one works. so i head back to Auto Perfection, get there at about 4:30, just as theyre about to knock off and have another customers car to drop off, Ric checks everything, diagnoses a faulty ballast (swapped the good side to the faulty side and it worked), and spends the next 30 odd minutes undoing the HID install, putting in new halogen globes, and new arctic blue parkers (one of each was blown), and sends me on my way with working headlights. so yeah, basically, another big +1 to Ric at Auto Perfection. /shameless plug. now i just need to send my HID's back to the guy who organised the group buy, and hopefully get a new set... wait... wut?
  12. WHAT?! I DIDNT HEAR YOU!
  13. nope, for a start the air lines and valves are WAY too small, along with an asthmatic compressor and tired pump, theyre pretty useless, takes forever to lift and drop. only way youd get it bouncing (or moving faster than youre average snail) is a very large airtank, one pump per axel, upgraded compressor, 1/2 inch or bigger lines, and suitable valves... and you know, new struts. haha, yeah, its pretty ordinary...
  14. can i interest anyone in a GTR vert?
  15. yeah, factory 'yota bags are pretty average, especially at this age, while its mad fun droppin the ass and liftin the nose on hindley street, theyre pretty useless really. dampening sucks. you can buy 're manufactured' bags from an american company called 'arnott industries', but they have a fairly short life span apparently. hell, you can even buy air struts with bilstein inserts through them. pumps you can find second hand, but even then theyre crazy expensive ($1000 private, up to $2000+ from a wrecker). just get coilovers. dont be put off by the rather high spring rate you tend to find for coilovers for these things though, theyre heavy beats, so 15-18kg front springs tend to be the norm. :edit: pm sent dude, also check this out, stance in the us, theyve got 5 types of coilovers, from your base model stuff all the way to remote reservoir racing stuff, thats a link to the GR+ which is 1 step above entry, 18/10kg springs, which is normal for 'yota gear. enjoy. then theres; HSD TT Series, HSD HR Series, ISC N1 (says its only available for 97 on though, might wanna check with ryan), and racing logic.
  16. nope. coil struts from the local delivered models bolt straight up. aftermarket gear will be the same. then just f**k off all the airbag gear, done.
  17. get coils. airbags are shit. yes, i can say that and know what im talking about.
  18. yeah, talk to cara, she knows all about high quality and very awesome authentic japanese sports car looking graphics.
  19. spotted matty's truck at adelaide tyre power, left a message with the guys for you. also spotted a vn/vp commodore (bear with me...) sporting altezza tail lights. no, not altezza style tail lights, but altezza lights that had been molded in.
  20. aside from theyre faster than skylines? nothin.
  21. i iz sry for tkn bad piktarz.
  22. i wasnt attempting to be artsy with that one, just snapped off a shot. but yes, i have heard of macro.
  23. lol, yeah... that too.
  24. yeah, tomei dump is about $300 more than the one i got. but hey... shit happens. everyones gotta buy some cheap shit at least once.
