  1. ey man if u got $10k-$20k on spending a skyline you might aswell get the best you can buy. a r32 skyline is a car that you have to be prepared to look after as they are getting old. i've had a few things go wrong with my 32. suspension is 90% always shot unless it was hardly driven or has been replaced. power steering leaks are pretty notorious with 32's and the 4ws (hicas) system makes it worse when its failed. Not trying to discourage you from buying one and i love my r32 but the reality is that they are getting old. for the price you want to pay go the series II r33 or a nice r34 gtt. if ur a new p plater don't get any of them at all lol as you won't be allowed to drive the turbo models. but another thing to look at is the fact that a r32 makes 160kw, r33 makes 187kw? and a r34 gtt has 206kw. be sure to be ready when you put the power down that you are confident enough to handle it because i've heard of so many people stuffing around in 33's-34's and slamming into a pole.
  2. japcars in fawkner. they are really good for r32-r34. they pick out and source genuine low km, lightly moded and clean skylines. i know this as i was constantly there checking up on their stock aswell as my own 32 coming from there. paint from skylines that they had were almost immac. they will have the catback, exhaust pod filter, full stock bodykits and turbo timers on most of their cars otherwise some clean ones have gone through there. they will usually sell a 92-93 r32 for around 10,500-12,500 r33 series II for around 12000-15000 and r34 ahven't really taken noticed seriously check them out. SSV have some good cars too but abit pricey. but it all depends on what u want. r32? r33? r34? v35? if you want mods aswell. u will find a bargain sometimes in private sales but be careful as i have experienced a bargain but at a huge cost in the following months. though you will usually get a good buy if the guy has looked after it obviously. if you want to mod the car u might aswell find one that has the mods you want as it wil lsave u a shiet load of cash. be weary of tyres especially rears as the guy most likely has already dropped more than a skid bad camber interior like steering wheel, gear boot and hand brake boots check brakes especially rears check paint carefully as might have been in a bingle and sprayed any leaks especially power steering if under or around 100000km check if the 100000km service has been done (belts, timing components, oils, spark plugs, radiator fluid) happy shopping
  3. damn these look awesome...in such good condition for a nice old skool wheel! how much with tyres? new or used? whats the tread like if used?
  4. lol at the guys posting that he was driving recklessly blah blah blah its all ur fault now take it up the ass. he did own up to it and just wanted to know what would come of it. but any way yeh tough break man...pretty harsh to give u a summons...but u'll just have to cop it and not be so fast next time. good luck
  5. hey guys the gf dropped her fone in some water =( so its been liquid damaged but this was a while ago and recently she turned it on and the audio worked but the screen was just blank and white. its a sony ericsson w850i. its a pretty good fone and shes still paying for it so she wants to see if she can fix it. anyone know a place that repairs well, cheap and in the western suburbs? let me know! jake
  6. nice man so u got a new clutch in? what kind is it? hows it perform? we should catch up man.
  7. anyone selling some?
  8. same shit happened to my last 32...some idiots most likely from the area had the balls enough to break into my car at my house and rip out the cd player...not even safe at home anymore mind you my house is on a court kind of hidden away from main roads and have never had any problems...best way to avoid would be to lock up in a garage if your in such a bad area like sunshine. like if ur wallet and few other little things were stolen..they should of smashed open a vl or commohore. nah but sorry to hear man...joys of owning a skyline
  9. does this include alarms!!!!!!!!???? can some one confirm real quick?
  10. anyone got all their powersteering hoses that connect up to the reservoir. need em asap. just aslong as they don't leak and are in good condition. pick up from melbourne only please. thanks
  11. i took my car to kmart as i found a powersteering leak that formed after servicing it there. they told me about a hose leaking. now i haven't seen it myself and no nothing about the mechanicals but have tried to see where its leaking from but i can't find it. its leaking from the passenger side of the engine bay. i asked if they could fix it but they told me they wouldn't know where to get the part. i don't even know what is leaking or what the hose i need looks like. so where can i take it to that will provide hoses and fitment for a r32? would prefer someone in western suburbs as i don't wanna go to far. thanks!

  15. first time ive had to change the indicator bulb in a 32 so i'm kind of lost. i looked at it and said WTF. can some one tell me how to do it? particularly the driver side. thanks!
  16. SOOO TRUE MAN!!...and the emily rose one was kinda scary...especialy when she was fully possessed and talking in 7 different voices of devils!! i watch alot of movies especially scary ones and nothing freaks me out internally like the excorcist does and for some reason my friends keep telling me its a stupid movie and they laughed through it. but its the sense of it being kind of real thats freaky. also watching it alone doesn't give you much of a confidence boost either. i dare anyone to watch it alone and not be shite scared!!!! unless you are made of steel and eat elephants for breakfast. like this guy i hate watching monster movies planning to get scared and then it turns out to be a massive octopus<----- The Mist. worst movie ever!
