had k750s in my WRX. were absolutely fantastic, highly recommended!

Been a black V35 getting around on Sydney road in Coburg/Fawkner the last couple of days. Looks noice. Didn't catch the rego.

Long weekend = Profiteering bastards. Of course the toothless watchdog that is the ACCC will come out in a statement saying 'Bugger that's really not much good' and do nothing about it once again.

After years of generally excellent marketing from Holden and generally shit marketing from Ford, it's nice to see the Red corner f**k something up for a change. Unfortunately on the other hand the boredom mongers over at Toyota will continue to crank out their 'We've got the jump' drivel and sell cars to the generally lobotomised general public.

Get a diesel, anyone who tells you they're environmentally friendly doesn't know what they're talking about.

Great idea. I'd be willing to help out compiling a Victorian one. Does anyone know anything about online resources for this kind of thing?

1 Boost gauge on the A-Pillar, no visibility issues. In fact when there a chance to open it up a bit, I don't have time to look at it!

OMFG!!! That's freaking awesome!

Oohh looks good. But still, a REAL simulatior? You clearly haven't played GT5 P with Simulation Physics turned on have you?

There's not many around, seriously, this car is very rear! lol, Nowhere.

Sounds good! Just got my membership through so I'll come down and see what all the fuss is about.

Oh dear son of rajab! 7:25!? *Runs to bathroom*

M3 is interesting, but it's missing 2 turbos and AWD! ...and M3 yellow looks kak

a big +1 for shannons, I switched to them from Just Car when I was 21 with my WRX. Slightly more expensive than JCI but saved a shitload on excess and added a windscreen per year. When i bought the GT-R I shopped around, GIO Custom were way out of the ballpark, JCI were pretty good but Shannons had the best overall package again. Highly recommended.

Skylines and cheap insurance are mutually exclusive aren't they? :s I'm 22 and found Shannons to be the best.

Get a PS3, buy Gran Turismo 5 Prologue and a Logitech Driving Force GT Racing wheel or G25. If you really love cars and racing, that's all you need to know.

I know what you mean! I had a WRX before, but I've never seen people react the way they do to the R! So many people stop and look.

well, we are drooling OVER our babies.... (but not on the paintwork though)

You described the emotions perfectly, I'm going through the same right now, just got my 33 on sunday. what a step to take!

Apparrently there's rules in place that prevent your average run of the mill salesman from selling the GT-R in the US. Only Managers and Dealer Principals are to be dealing with GT-R customers. Bumping up prices on sought after models is pretty normal, the GT 40th anniversary and Cobra Falcons had a much larger dealer delivery fee than a normal car at the dealership I work at. There'll be opportunists trying to sell the cars above market value when the inevitable supply shortage happens anyway. Still, the markups they're talking about in the US are huge. But then if buyers are patient, they'll get their GT-R without the massive markup eventually, it really just comes down to how much people are prepared to pay to get one quick. If there are suckers out there willing to part with that much folding, then dealers should be well within their rights to charge it. Supply and demand.

The laws for this vary a lot from state to state, it all depends on where you are.

How do you know the rims on eBay are DEFINITELY your rims? or more to the point, can you provide proof?

Got home and a big panel had been torn off the garage. Unfortunately it let in all the dust and now the GT-R is coated! Right after I polished it on Sunday too. Ah well, could have been worse.

I bought it from Peter Christopher. Which cruise is on this sunday? EDIT: just found the events calendar section. Hmm GOR sounds like a good first weekend with the skyline...
