Yeah, i run their hubs, i feel their headsets are cool, but overpriced, i can go through 5 cane creeks and still not afford a king headset.

Now, all you need are king wheels.

I ride a Dobermann Pinscher, the paintjob on my frame is a little pitted due to perspiration and general non-maintenance. I'm planning to bring this bike over from singapore, is the pitted paintjob and issue to the quarantine people?

Is there a difference in rates if you're insuring a gts or a gtr? I would think there is.

Yeah, i'm not exactly keen on taking a loan, and i'm not all that desperate for a car. Before i get my own, i'll have a honda accord to drive around, till my girlfriend gets her license anyway.

Will be studying in RMIT, will do foundation year first, then on to chemical engineering. But first, i'll need to part time job to be able to get my car.

I ride a bicycle quicker than that roadster.

Ujin Nice to know there's a fellow Singaporean in Victoria too. Still serving my NS liability, and i will ORD on 15th June. Will be flying off from Singapore on the 25th of June, since my semester starts in July 14th. Are you studying in Australia too? And how much did you pay for your R32 GTR? I drive either my dad's Renault Megane CC or my Renault Clio 1.6A shared with my sister in Sg. Yes, my dad is a major Renault fan. And a very big thank you to all for all the usefull information provided. I really look forward to meeting you guys in Victoria when i can finally afford a R32 GTS-T. I currently only have about 3k in AUD, so i'm still really really short.

Well, if you were to compare the Victorian traffic laws vs the Singaporean traffic laws, i would say there wouldn't be much of a difference. Just that in singapore, we're allowed +20km/h on the prevailing speed limit. Singaporean laws on car modifications only allows cosmetic changes, anything else and the fine is hardcore, that is, if one gets caught. And yes, i've got a full Singaporean license. For us, its only 1yr on our P's. Whats the limit on highways in Vic?

Those are great links. Thanks. They were of great use to me. I now understand that to renew my registration, there is no need for RWC. RWC only comes into play when i'm getting a new car. Now, i'm not here yet, but soon i will be, and what kind of registration rates do i have to pay for a r32 gts? I guess thats the only skyline i can afford right now, not counting the r31s. Petrol in Australia is about 10% cheaper than in singapore i guess. We pay around 1.60/L for 98RON fuel. Considering our currencies are almost equal in value now. And one more thing. I'm coming here as a student, will i have to do a license conversion or can i drive with my singaporean license throughout my tenure as a student. Thanks a lot for your patience, as i wish to get familiarised before i come, to understand how things work so that i won't screw up.

Hi, My name's Alvin and i come from Singapore, but i will be coming to Victoria to study at RMIT in about 3months time for about 5 years. So, because cars in singapore are ridiculously expensive, i have decided to get a car here while i study. I'm torn between a skyline, either a r32 or a r33 gts or a 300zx. They are all beautiful cars. I know you guys would definitely recommend the skyline. I'm confused about rwc and rego. Do i need the car to be roadworthy before i and extend the registration of a car? I was told the rwc is needed only when i'm buying a new car, is that true? And whats are the petrol prices like now over in Vic? When i was in rockhampton, around october/november, the prices were like +- 1.20/L. Oh yes, and i will be living in Blackburn. Cheers.
