Autosalon 2006

[shmiddy]

atleast its something to do, better than no auto salon, im not a fan of the bling ether but ya syill have to look at the car and respect how much time and thought, and money might of gone into it then judge it, not wether it;s your taste or not, plus there is always a fair bit of shnanny walkin around there, helps pass the time.

I just found that the cars where plain as, you see better cars on the roads.

Last year there was a GTT there that was auto and totally stock and looked like shit.

whats the point it being there? my car is better?

Well I think you should enter you car then, maybe it will make this years more interesting. Just jokes mate!

I think if we get a good turn out it would be an enjoyable event, I know I'd go to check out our display and squizy at others.

was that the black GTT? with C-west body kit I think....

there's only 1 other GTT in the show the white colour wiht bomex and NOS in the car.....no GTR r34 yet then...so any GTT will look impressive..kekeke

[dan_the_man]

there was also a red gtt at the show on the SAUWA stand.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

OMGWFT - Tim - Black GTT

Scaggs - Jared - Red GTT

Both got a heap of attention, even though the were fairly stock

[MacGuyver]

The dyno comps are always a highlight, I forgot to mention those. I remember one year there was a white GTT that was very low and had a sweet kit on it. Anyways when the tried to get it onto the rollers, it was too low and cracked the side skirts slightly! That same year there was also a genuine Tommy Kaira R34 that was very cool. Like I said there's always a few good surprises such as these!

r u sure it wasnt the white gtst widebody that cracked the side skirts?

I was running the dyno comp that year, and the Tommy Kaira R34 made less than stock power, the owner was disappointed.

Yeah it was a GTT that cracked the side skirts, I warned him beforehand but he still wanted on.

GT Nik managed to get his car on the dyno, except when they use the DynoPak hub dyno.

I've enjoyed some of the previous events as well but have noticed a trend for most of the cars to down the blinged up/big chrome rims route which isn't really to my tastes. *Sometimes* I've noticed better cars out in the carpark! Still there's always a few surprises to be had.

thats funny because last year we saw a bayside glue r34 GTR in the carpark that was pretty dirty but still looked hot as.

whats this circut battle crap about, the scan is a bit hard to read..

are they actually going to use a race track like wanners/collie, or just run some drags?

[SKY 34]

Tommy Kaira R34 <--- it's auto...I think it's white in colour..he bought it off Cannington autohouse if I'm not wrong...that's why didn't do that well in dino

[Flash89]

Wasnt his car too low for the dyno??

[SKY 34]

I bought my skyline from same dealer...they told me it's the only Tommy Kaira in W.A .....dunno what mod's he's done since...I know for sure it's auto

[boostED82]

what kinda dyno readings were gtst's getting last year??

[GTS-t VSPEC]

I think GTNik's car was the highest with mid 500rwhp.

GTR's were close to 700rwhp.
