[UWISSH!]

woohoo science just proved that chicks dig GTR's

[GTRsean]

Then me = fail......

[TaKz]

nice car. too bad i missed out on seeing it on topgear ><;

but the thread title reminded me of that yellow r33 gtr which was tested but the original top gear!

[SiR_RB]

chicks love r33's PERIOD ! LOL dnt think that car had 10 subwoofers like he said though hehehe

aus delievered R35 GTR was a f*kn animal and less then 1 second difference between that and the 911 GT2 porsche

[skins]

Pretty funny stuff. I thought all the girls were going to hold up their little pinky's.

[Black Widow]

How good are you Jez!

Legend.

I'm sure with no sound i'm missing half the story but oh well

[bored33]

I just watched the clip, haha now I wonder if it was a wise idea to sell my R33 to get an R34!

Naaaaahhhhhhh!! I love my R34!

[Piggaz]

I thought it was quite a rubbish article. Couldnt they have given it to the stog and take it around the track or something?

[typevu]

Sucks to be a tradie

[Cassbo]

Sucks to be a tradie

Realistically would you try meeting women in wife beaters and stubbies? Seriously

[Primordial]

So you're implying that tradies have another outfit matt?

[GoldZilla]

Ripped jeans and a flanny over the wifebeater, Jon?

[Sinful]

I was in the audience for this top gear episode and got to see the car up close..

Didnt really like the inside of it, very custom but each to there own..

I didnt get to see under the bonnet either which was a shame

I was right up the front of the audience for the R35 too and then they wheel the lap board out right in front of me lol so my 5 minutes of fame was shoot down in flames

[Cassbo]

So you're implying that tradies have another outfit matt?

Would you believe I'm a sparky?

[Sheng]

haha yeah boiiii!

[Beer Baron]

if there is a top secret part on that car it is VERY secret cause I've never found one... had a good look over that car a number of times. not really a fan of all the dr!ft logos all over the interior.... certainly some questionable taste. the car overall is not bad, but I would have thought they could have chosen better. like Blitz said that car has been no where near top secret japan and was built in aus.

[NZM.031]

im just flicking through the particular issue of Speed, Dec-Jan 03, issue 004 (yes im weird, i keep all magazines that i buy)...

now im not saying anything... and i believe baron more than most..

but in the article... Top Secret is mentioned alot. and the top speed run, and top secrets powerhouse tuning potential. it claims to have hks pistons, rods, rings and cams, and a top secret modified crank... now the most suprising thing, is in one of the pics of the rear... it shows, in plain view... a magnaflow muffler.. now what sort of top japanese tuning company, uses a magnaflow muffler, in the myriad of hks and trust pieces... if it was put on for compliance, than thats just plain ghey and should have been replaced with something a bit more 'trust' like

power is claimed at 440kw.

[GTR32X]

dont know if its appropriate to ask, but just curious. apologies if its not and mods please feel free to delete, but -

is this the same gold gtr that a few years ago the owner was murdered and it was at his funeral?

if anyone can recall?

Yes he was, Richard Carruthers.....

He was one of my brothers friends and he was sadly murdered in his house while he slept!!

Its a shame cause he was a very very nice guy and my brother and i and a few friends were planning to go to Japan with him just before he got murdered!!

He also had a R34 GTR with a few HKS parts on it, his close friend is selling it for him.

He was a very serious car fanatic not just with imports but V8s also! They had Torana's aswell that made some serious power

RIP RICK!!
