Yeah THANKS spud, (hope you don't mind the abrieviation),
Only had it 3days and would yu believe that some jealous gronky CU*T has already deep keyed three panels parked at the shopping centre for fu*k sake.
Shit mate this is a lot of car, I am that infatuated, i want another one.
Just wondering which would be the better all round car , ie price , performance, the 2.6o turb'ed manual or the 3.5 natural 6 speed like mine, any opps on that spud. Perhaps one of each, two is better than one they say. Hee hee hee

I love when people say spud haha, 

That would absolutely piss me off if someone keyed my car. 
I'm definitely more of a C34 Stagea guy, remember, when it comes to the Autech RB26 stagea, if something breaks you basically have to uy another gtr. I personally would buy a RS4S (2.5l Turbo Manual) if you want a C34, You could probably build up the RS4S to perform better than the Autech C34 and it may still end up being cheaper. Not really too sure when it comes to the M35 models, but I definitely respect a good looking one.

I'd love to have one of each haha

So its a 2wd manual? That makes it easier to modify if you're so inclined. The latest Link computers can run the 4 camshafts so time for a big single turbo!

I'm pretty sure they're just 6 speed auto, unless someone did a manual swap :D

Yep sweet as 6 speed manual. I think I got a little lucky donut, I mean I really like the only other 6speed the 260s, but everyone has a turb auto right, so if you gonna be different yu got to stand out in the crowd. This is not far off the mark, what yu recon donut .As for upgrades , might look at a chip n cam set, maybe some suspension which is pretty solid anyway, the head unit and thought the 260s wing just to confuse the experts Hertz.
Tell the missus yu can have your cake and eat it too with this little gem.

Good on ya spud. Had a family at school. all three boys we called spud, so it came sort of natural. Well yu sound like yu might know a bit more than a recent convert like myself, so I'll take your word for it on the specs. I'm pretty happy with it stock at the moment, but if I can get my grubby little mits on another low k's one cheap enough I might look some of the stuff yu mention, certainly like to maybe build a bittsa this n bittsa that, using all the best factory bits from across the skyline range, maybe a turn or two might fit that picture. One thing is for sure spud, two in the hand is much better than one in the bush, so yu are spot on, one of each would nothing hurt. All G in the H. Spud

    • With my pre/power I use a remote trigger cable(3.5mm jack each end). I turn tv on, it turns both on via ARC. Or, just the pre with the remote or its streaming software, turns on both. Not that difficult at all. Obviously,  you would also want to actually update/upgrade over other factors in your life(bills, family, other hobbies, etc)
    • Yeah, nightfall was very "meh". And I'm crap at pvp, so feels like everyone has cheats(it's just my lack of skill). Final shape has been pretty good. New raid and dungeon are pretty good. If you want to give it a go, probably wait until it's on sale. But, as usual, most of it feels very familiar. 
    • This morning was Kingswood's Microscopic Wars. It is the album's 10 year anniversary this year and we went to see them play the whole album as a special show a couple of months back. Was pretty spectacular.
    • Yeah I would like to try and get a ADM car to reduce issues with insurance. I've decided if I end up getting this car I will set it up to be a sleeper build, leave it looking stock/dad spec on the outside I wonder if you can just drop in the 400r/Red/Z ECU or better still use a flashing tool to copy the map off one. Backup the factory map and then flash the 400hp cars onto the 300hp cars ECU?
    • Nah, yeah, nah. Speakers have a nominal impedance of 8 ohm that looks more like 6.4 ohm when measured. The receiver's amplifiers (all channels) are all rated to 6 ohm (I think, it's been a long time since I cared). The real problem is that many modern class D amps have aggressive protection circuitry that cuts off the fun if they think too much current is being drawn. And with my speakers having series crossovers, as opposed to more typical parallel crossovers, and big TL enclosures, they can certainly dip down to lower impedances at some frequencies and that easily triggers the protection. Pioneer receivers are somewhat famous for it, but even Denon, Onkyo, et al, all have many complaints against them across various models. It only does it when listening to music at high levels. You have to be putting your ears at risk to do it. But sometimes I want to do that. If I was serious about using it as a listening room I'd simply upgrade the amp for the front pair to a nice Rotel or something, and just use the receiver for signal handling and processing - although that would be a bit of a pain in the arse too. Have to switch on more shit, pre-amp volume vs main amp volume, etc etc.
