  1. Don't wanna do same colour cause to me that's always been like spending a few thousand on having it look slightly better than before. I like to justify the expense by doing a colour you can't get that model of car in, so that it's more a modification than a repair.My current favourite contender is this, which I think is dark metallic blue running slightly into dark purple. These things come in all sorts of custom colours, including this blue, which is quite striking but may be over the top for a non supercar? Anyway, keep the suggestions coming and feel free to show pictures! I'm pretty open at this stage, though a blue or red or any colour that 33s don't normally come in has good odds. It would have to be a damn good silver to make me want to respray same colour.
  2. I'm not buying a legit 375rwkw with traction in first unless you were running drag slicks!
  3. lol @ one of Alvin's defect reasons... "Rear spoiler mounts are too sharp" In case you hit a pedestrian while reversing backwards? 1. There's only so many colours, if enough are named it will likely be one of the suggestions 2. I do hate some people who ask for opinions when they've already made their mind up...though some people wanna be assured by others they have made a good choice...I hate the ones who do it and go against what everyone has suggested 3. I was thinking of a metallic blue or dark purple which have been suggested
  4. Also, respray colours for R33...come on I need ideas.
  5. I'm also deterred by the cost of hiring a full time security guard
  6. This You're not just avoiding the EPA, but having to prove yourself right in the first place which is the real pain in the ass. Testing paid for by yours truly in either case.
  7. The specific rule mentions intake modifications, so I guess it depends if the officer recognises or acknowledges it as a modification. At 270 I'm still using the standard intake pipe, but I think Chris put a spring inside there or something from memory?
  8. Unrelated; After hail damage, front bar scrapes, bonnet chips, mismatching panel colours from previous repairs, aging paint and now a rear ender...I may be respraying the R33. Colour suggestions?
  9. Fair call I think GTRs had a bit more value to them when GTS-T modifications weren't so available. Can make stupid power with GTS-Ts for so little cost these days...even with a RacePace tune
  10. Unrelated, Penrite Racing 10 @ Autobarn for $55...score.
  11. You can do that with a GTS-T though, to much the same degree...injectors are my only give away cause I cbf spraying them the standard colour. Return flow IC is legal as long as you don't have a pod. When I drove a GTR I wasn't impressed. Maybe it had been talked up or I don't hit the corners enough to justify having AWD, but having come from a well sorted GTS-T, I wouldn't pay the extra money.
  12. Do love cordon bleu though
  13. Yeah but I meant blue which is like spraying it with blue paint for Aussie flag look Shut up
  14. I think I know what's going on here
  15. Chef's recommendation coincidentally blue everytime for less cooking effort inb4 Hamish hates me
  16. Grant is like one of those guys who turns a box of matches into a Porsche by trading back and forth on craigslist...only in reverse.
  17. Congrats to Leesh on winning her first comp, a bodyweight bench contest (women half bodyweight), beating out some very strong powerlifters, with 26 reps
  18. Jet, why won't you answer his key question? I've seen him post it plenty of times now and each time I saw you dodge it in a follow up post, my previously unbiased opinion of you shifted further into unfavorable territory. Where there's smoke, there's fire. If there's even 2 people not directly connected to each other, and saying you're dodgy, there's a good chance something is going on. Random assortments of people don't just make up vendettas or waste their time trying to hurt someone's reputation for the fun of if...but I know that being stolen from is a shitty feeling and good motivation to go out of your way to pipe up and say something. I think you're either a scammer or a very, very poor seller to have this kind of rep following you around. Even if you can explain every story/complaint and purportedly resolve some issues, why do these issues even appear so frequently in the first place? For future peace of mind, after my first couple of issues as a seller, I would acknowledge I'm doing something wrong here and take a look at the stuff I'm selling or the method by which I send items. Use parcel tracking and wrap my items better. A 50% success ratio with transactions is not acceptable. Whether you delivered some items to people and others not, I wouldn't deal with you in the first place and take that chance that I'm going to have headaches. It seems to be a roll of the dice with you whether the transaction goes well or not and I wouldn't roll. Unfortunately people buying car parts are usually so desperate or opportunistic for the parts and a good price that they will jump at the opportunity and even ignore the smoke that surrounds someone like this. Then wish afterwards that they had been more careful.
  19. That's fkin cool Worth half that, though
  20. No good dude, that must suck seeing your car like that
  21. 86 nah don't bother with drags, that car is all corners and a decently quick daily driver. If I was a fresh P plater I would, cause I'd be taking on Preludes and V6 Commodores and I wouldn't have been in anything faster, or beaten anything faster for that matter. I'm all about taking down fast Euro these days Have put a Perrin exhaust on since you last saw it...sweet music to the ears when you rev it out...but now hunting down forced induction kits and then maybe the above will change
  22. - Skinny Gym Random, 2014
  23. Both It's only fun winning car races cause the bike is no contest
