hi guys, im alex. i live in melbourne...... I'm only 15 and there are probably older guys here that may turn a cold shoulder thinking im a kid who saw the fast and the furious too many times and wants to be like those guys on mtv cribs. But actually no, i've been into cars all my life especially into aus's modified car scene since my dad bought me my 1st autosalon magazine in the year 2002 at the melbourne airport. I'm planning on getting an R34 Gt (manual ofcourse) as my first car as i've always been fond of them since my dad took me to N1 distribution years ago and i saw a bunch of R32's. I'm here cause im eager and enthusiastic about becoming a skyline owner and a skylines australia victoria member (once i get the car in the next year or two). I'm here to learn so i can squeeze the most enjoyment of my skyline "cause the truth is, it ain't a hobby" (+10 pionts to whoever might know where i got that from).

O yeah, my favourite bands Blink-182 forever and always. I've been playing guitar for 1 year and drums for 4.

Please do your best to respond to any questions i might ask throughout the forum (if any, theres a thread for everyhting here),

"i like to think i'm nice and my mum says i'm cool"-Unknown

Cheers guys and thanks

Alex.

    • More photos are up, and the price has been dropped to $16,000. It's just had a service and a new 12V battery, too.
    • I agree on doing some better than factory pistons, rods, and oil pump. For anyone using the vehicle on the road, I don't get why everyone wants big cams. The stock cam profile, with some more lift would be mint for road usage. Everyone going big cams and then wondering why it isn't as responsive in traffic, when they've shifted the torque curve upwards an additional 1000RPM. Make torque, at lower RPM. Sure it's not as cool as claiming "500KW" and revving it to 8,0000RPM, but that same torque 2,000RPM earlier... Then you don't need the extremely high end pistons and rods, and blah blah blah.
    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
