rs 73, you have PM.......

mate, if no ones got picks of a car painted in candy apple red check out a few hot-rod sites....the colour was THE colour to paint your rod in a while ago so I'm sure there are heaps of examples.......I know for a fact that 'House of Kolor' do a sweet candy apple red....maybe contact them for pics or samples.

hippy, I think legally it is upto the dealer.....if he/she wants to be a real prick about it they are under no obligation to give it back........esp. without any paper work to go with it......did your mate even get a receipt for the deposit?

The car was featured in speed a little while ago with an identical yellow one......article was about the shop that converts them. It costs about 20-30k just to do the conversion to wide-body and get wider rims to suit!!! Apparently it takes months to do with the hardest part lining up the side panel creases......

Hippy, Mate as far as I know (my wife is in the legal field) a deposit is a legally binding arrangement between a buyer and seller.....esp. if there is signed paperwork involved. If the buyer never comes back the seller keeps the deposit (compensation for turning people down) and in turn if the seller sells the item to someone else after you have put a deposit down, the seller is legally obligated to provide you with the same item at the same cost as what was agreed to.

love the side, like the rear....hate the front!!! I agree with James though.....cues from 2000gt are obvious

swap some words around mate..... SAU 'servicing' cruises.......lol!!!!

Hey Carlo...maybe we should offer this as a 'service' of SAU....hehehe!!!

Duncan, Fair nuf......but wasn't commenting on performance just the whole real/fake GTR thing. Gotta admire the dedication though.......although why they didn't just buy a GTR in the first place who knows???

I agree with most on this thread......kit & guards are okay but don't badge it unless it is the real thing!!! To throw a complete spanner in the works does anyone know about the purple 'Gracer' R33 GTR (not sure which tuning company uses it but is used in a few ads)?? Apparently it started life as a R33 Gtst and the ower completely stripped it and rebuilt it as a GTR using all the original gear - guards/kit/engine/interior etc etc. Who is going to deny the owner the right to call it a GTR after all that work??!!!!

can u send a pic of the clarion amp........how old is it & do you have a model no?? Thanks.

from what I know regarding ADR rules and steering wheels. If u have an steering wheel with airbag the aftermarket one has to have an airbag as well. The steering wheel can't have any sharp edges. The steering wheel can't be too reflective. Apart from that you should be right........as for the centre pad thing I've never heard of ADR rules regarding that.....maybe with it off it leaves a reflective surface??

lethal, From what I've heard the K&N filter for the stock box is the way to go. Also I have a custom FM cooler out the front of mine with the stock airbox......it depends where the pipes for the cooler are run. You can get FMI kits with pipes that need the stock box removed or not.....its your choice!

Erica, As with all the other interstaters on the cruise.......a big thanx for a great night......well org for the No of cars....just hand out more maps next time!!! Once again thanx for showin' a vic plater the streets of SA

Jimbo...Don't know whether it comes on during key-turn...as I said I've never seen it!!!.....so either my car doesn't have it or the bulb blown in the dash. Anyways if you have the manual check it out, I have the manual but the car isn't here with me at work so I can't check.....

JimX....I think you might b right...I'll have to give it a go!!!

According to the owners manual...all R33 with an active LSD have a warning light on the dash saying 'slippery' and apparently lights up when going over slippery surfaces. Either mine doesn't have it or I've been too busy concentrating on applying that opp lock!!!!

can U pm me with a price???

check out carmates site on the web.....heap of carbon fibre (the real stuff) & frp ones.....

Leewah, Mate have a look at any of the TAC speeding adverts and even blind freddy can tell that in all cases speed was a FACTOR not a CAUSE.......the tac/govt/police seem to have forgotten this....(or maybe the big dollar sign is blocking their view!!!) I don't know how much info is on the net but look up M.A.D. from england (motorists against detection)....very funny stuff!!!

I have parked there a couple of times but as I said only a couple of times so if you see it more often than that it can't be mine!! Glad to hear you've been lookin after skylines man...keep up the good work!! You can check out my car in the 'who is who' thread in the vic section 2 confirm if it was me or not.....

Wardest, Black R33.....it might have been mine mate although I wouldn't say I park there reg.... Oh and if U ever want to hook up for a cruise or something I live up the road in Glenhuntly......

Hey everyone....while I was on the cruise I saw a couple of people runnin' around with cameras etc. Anybody got some pics to post??

Pred666, Mate I've been done 4 being too loud 'bout 3 times now and mine has the std exhaust system from engine to just before the rear axle (incl std cat, std resonator etc etc) with an aftermarket barrel muffler at the end. Got tested at 95dB......

pawson, I'd be interested for sure......just not sure wether I'll be back in time. I am in Adelaide on work at the moment and am expected to be back in Melb by the end of Sep so hopefully I'll be there. Keep me informed and I'll let you know how my contract end date goes...... Thanks.....
