  1. Thats alright! to begin with..... p.s. I should be alright with a remap to run the show?
  2. A big 2 thumbs up and thanks to all those who have contributed to this thread.... Effing fantastic! Just wondering if there has been an update to the pdf doc? The latest version I can get my hands on is November 2007? btw this is not the one listed on page 1, that one is 2006. I'm currently in the planning/purchasing stage of my RB30 build up. I currently own an R34GTT and I'm planning for more of a "budget build" where my max power at the rears will be capped at 250-300KW....eventually. With a shit load of torque of course for that V8 feel! Apart from the S2-RB30 block I'm planning to keep everything as is. Sitting at the correct height by modifying the engine blocks I'm hoping to use my standard R34 head, then bolt everything back up for a standard looking engine bay. In the beginning I'm even planning to use my standard R34 turbo etc. Might end up getting it high flowed and keeping it coz the cops here in SA are nazi's and I drive this car everyday. I don't want to be that guy who after 350 pages still asks "does anyone know..."? But if anyone has any thoughts I'm open to ideas, more importantly if anyone knows the right people to speak to here in Adelaide it would be appreciated. Cheers in advance guys.
  3. PS3 is just fantastic, however after buying my copy of GT5 it feels like an Xbox game...... uncool. If the cars wont accelerate when I push the button then whats the point? I've played it once and I reckon I'll be trading it in... Oh yeah, whats with that opening movie and that rubbish piano playing?? Then even after we endure this we have to put up with more crap music in the main menu and then some porn like sax playing during the rest of the menus!
  4. Isnt it amazing how xbox owners want to always stand up for their console and defend its purchase! There is a reason a PS3 is more expensive...... Its just better, deal with it. PS3... IT JUST DOES EVERYTHING. IPhone 4... IT JUST DOES EVERYTHING, except what you want it to do!
  5. Trying to find some info on R34 steering racks. I've been told there are differences between the NA, GTT and GTR models. Is there a difference in turning circles? or the amount of turns lock to lock?
  6. I once got pulled because I was wearing my hat backwards...... no effing joke! Cop apologized to me after looking at my license and realizing I was in my 30's. His exact word to me were "I saw the backwards cap and assumed you were a P plater without your plates"
  7. A lot of ppl here are using the term "JDM"..... Do ppl actually understand what it means? My mum's corolla is more "JDM" than most imports. I'm sick of ppl seeing a kitted import with big rims etc and then saying crap like " Sweet ride man, thats so JDM" "JDM" STANDS FOR ANY CAR RELEASED IN THE JAPANESE DOMESTIC MARKET, IN ITS STANDARD FORM. A BMW or Audi when sold off the showroom floor in Japan is "JDM" As it has been made to comply with Japanese standards before being sold and is therefore "jap spec" In point of fact, for any car that has been modified you could say that its no longer "JDM" Unfortunately the term jdm has been picked up by guys in their late teens and early 20's over the past five years to describe fully modified, "fully sick" imports and more and more is being used in the wrong context. just some fuel for further discussion.
  8. Yup.
  9. As the title says.... Dont worry, this isnt the only place im looking! lol! Just wondering if anyone has had any experiences with a good lawyer they could recommend here in Adelaide. cheers
  10. Unfortunately ppl are becoming less and less interested in traveling to a premier car show such as this, because its a given that we are all enthusiasts and want to drive our pride and joys to the event, but all that happens is that we get defected along the way by the cops. An event such as this is a real economy boost to the local area, but every single person I know, including myself will not be attending due to the associated police presence. Sorry. Organizers of such events really need to take this up with the SA government. Anyone tried to drive an import out to Malalla to watch an event lately? You all know what happens.
  11. Thought its about time someone else did the bumping..... Sorry to say dude, but the reason you gotta keep bumping your own thread is your asking price is what you'd expect from a dealer not a private seller. Sorry.
  12. engine bay looks a different colour to body?

    Finance

    Gday ppl! Im thinkn about bringing over a V35 350GT coupe from japan, coz the sticker prices on these cars I see here in adelaide are quite frankly staggering ($40K plus) and Im suprised people are paying this when turbo, manual 34's are only around the $24K mark... $17-$20K privately... Obviously I like the V35 coupe, but at that price, give me a R34 any day!! Hell I could get an R32 GTR in show condish! Anyway, back on topic... I'm just wondering how people here go about aranging finance for a car that is not even here in the country? I mean, I can afford a $30,000 car, but I dont have $30,000 if you get my drift! Anyone here got a favourite bank etc that they have success with in the past? Is there such a thing as a car loan for these types of vehicles or are people forced to pay the higher interest rate of a personal loan? I've known people 1st hand who have gone for local vehicles such as fords and holdens (new) believing they could not arrange finance for a car that was still in japan.... so sad... Any advice or past experiences would be greatly appreciated.
  14. sounds like a plan.........
  15. 2001 Audi A3 Auto Power everything 87,000kms (thats bugger all km's per year ppl!!) Stock as.... Great car for the missus or up and coming executive/sales rep. Paid $24K from stillwell prestige on main north road a year ago. (Adelaide) $17K.
