South African Auzzie

Sorry to hear - hope you get it all sorted out Jyo - would have been good to have another 32 there... there was only 2 of us so we looked quite sad lol
-
Hey how fast would one get down the strait past the pits there? in a lightly moded R32 GTSt - not a crazy 33 like the one R33_rarcer has The reason I ask is because it's speed limited to 180 and I'm not sure if that will be a problem...
-
im comming too first time though so a little nervous... Ill be in a gun metal grey 32
-
thanks guys!!! after having driven the car for about a month now and experiencing the things you guys are talking about I think I will remove it... now the only question is whats the difference between Sydneykid's Whiteline kit and GTRGeoff's lock bar... I think I understand the lockbar but what is this Whiteline kit you are talking about?

On the third flipside if you lied about your car they might just refuse to cover you all together
