Count me in Chris, but then again you probably already did. How did you go with the language setting we talked about yesterday? cheers Muz PS. Finally managed to get an "update" out of the compliance people. Still no further advanced than we were 3 months ago. Thanks J-Spec. This unhappy and unfortunate saga drags on.

I'm with you, I think MW has to sit on it for another year. Give Newey and the design team time to work their magic afterall he did design three of the fastest and most successfull chassis in F1. New regs permit "B" teams. Think thy're trying to get more cars on the grid before we get back to the 1960's 1.5 litre formula. Muz

Thanks mate, If that is your 'line in the pic then I have seen you about. Car looks great. I think I know where they are. Cheers

This bar is actually a Nissan Sport bar (an OEM option direct from Nissan) and not NISMO. How do I know this I hear you ask, well I just had an insurance claim for a new front bar and ordered direct from Nissan here in Oz. No problems at all. However if you are looking for used, try Slidewize Imports and grab one fron Yahoo Auctions. http://page9.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/k40918522 Cheers Muz

Hi All SAU'ers in the Tropical Capital of Queensland I'm looking for a trusted and proven spray painter in Cairns to re-spray my R34. I'm not changing colours, I just want the original paint work freshened up as the years have not been kind. Also need one pin dent removed. Any suggestions etc will be greatly appreciated. Cheers and thanks in advance Muz

Gees you blokes are dreamin'. Hamilton will never race in a "B" team as Ron has invested too much in him. Are you all so naive to think that Ron has not sold shares in this boy? Team Macca is making an absolute killing on this. And anyway we all know that MW has the mojo, he has just never had the car! cheers

and also if you will allow me to drag you all back a page or two ....... I have had a chance to view said material re one young Keeley Hazel and do certainly admit that she has several very redeemable features and undeniable talents. cheers and many beers Muz

Hindsight is a wonderful thing. Just ask "he who could have been WDC" Mark Webber. He openly admits that having a soft spot for Team Willie cost him a WDC. He should have been at Team Reggie instead of Fisi but as they say in the movies ....... That's Life! cheers Muz

Just what F1 needs ....... another french hothead!

I'm willing to wager that he won't be there to complete the 3 years

If you look very carefully at the video you will see that Gordon actually passed Ambrose just after the yellow 's for the full course came out and then Ambrose tagged him which is why Ambrose was given the leaders position at the re-start. Going to be interesting to see the aftermath of this as Gordon is considered to be Nascar Royalty. cheers Muz

Do you honestly think Webber would let Hamilton get away with the crap he has been getting away with. Mate I think there would be a heavy session of "car park counselling" occurring. Cheers Muz

Ohhhh :laughing-smiley-014: You do know that that outfit was once owned by a Kiwi don't you? And have you ever met a Kiwi who tells nothing but the truth?

And you arrived at that conclusion how?

Yes the only difference is in the little piece of rubber weatherstrip that goes across the top of the light. Slightly longer on the GTT to follow the curve of the bonnet. Some later model GTT's also had different parking light covers. Cheers Muz

Whose? Keeley's or Nelson's missus?

I will definitely follow whatever team she drives for! And she wears my favourite all time number F1 06!

Hmmmmm, sounds like you had already done it and were starting to .......... yourself just in case it wasn't a good idea :laughing-smiley-014:

I too have looked at upgrading from my 34 and then I just take myself off to my favourite stretch of mountain road and amuse myself for an hour or so. An R34 with a well sorted engine and suspension package is an absolute loody joy to drive. Free plug for the boys from Fulcrum Suspension in Cairns NQ. They sorted my Tein package superbly! cheers Muz

Some have the Premium Edition that has the Brembo brake package. cheers Muz

Please don't forget our M35's please please please. Although you do have plenty of time as it failed emissions testing again!!!!!!! Cheers Muz

Quite correct on Courteney. Just reinforces what I wrote earlier unless you have money or are very well established/connected within the F1 community, you have buckleys of cracking the big teams. Even the lesser teams are now being absobed into larger teams such as Red Bull/Toro Rosso and McLaren and the new team for next year. Webber may go close but I think it will be a long time before we see another Oz F1 driver let alone WDC. It maybe time to ressurect the Brabham marque! Who owns the name these days? Anyone know? Cheers Muz

Still no closer to gaining emissions approval. Muz

Actually Skaife would have been very good in F1. Back when racing drivers used to actually race a couple of different classes, Skaife won a F-Holden championship and the ATCC in the same year. I stand to be corrected on this. 3/4 of the current crop of F1 pilots are only there because they have money backing them. Certainly not a lot of talent in the current field! cheers Muz

There is another thread on this somewhere on here but to bring you up to date thus far. My 2004 AR-X 4 is currently in Melbourne undergoing testing with no sign of it making it as yet so as Matt says "the waiting continues". Yes it is very frustrating considering the import broker (in my case) and the compliance shop in Matt's case both said that YES compliance was available for this model. All very frustrating indeed. The AR-X has cruise control but haven't seen it in any of the others as yet. Cheers Muz
