Welcome to the jungle dude

Read the forums often, esp the for sale section. Check the national forums in regards to maint, mods and stuff for sale

You'll grow into it. Just start with maintaining ur car as best u can and replacing the worn components to give it another decades worth of use. Once u got that sorted, then u can think about upgrades

Looks very pretty tho. You'll have fun with it, guaranteed

-D

welcome aboard man

best single bit of advice is don't extend your oil changes do them even if you think the oil coming out is all good :)

have fun with the fight in the garage too your skyline wont like the senator :P but the senator will be jealous of the skyline :)

haha cheers fellas. yeah i got the car from a dude i know who bought it from NSW

i live in adelaide btw

the cleaning and makings things how i like has already started with simple things like cleaning it. fixing the dash lights/ putting my dvd player in tomorrow and hooking up my subs and amps in the process.

its only been a couple days, but they really are a ncie car to drive.

EDIT** with the headlights ive been told i can use any polis on the outside with a buff, is this a good idea or just do it by hand?

DON'T mod it?!?!? You've lost it Krish, definitely mod it!

ahhh, God's country!

Bit upper crust for you Steve :P

Hold up, Port Adelaide, God's country?!?! I didn't know God had hit hard time due to the global financial crisis and had to sell up to a crap hole too. Sad hard times indeed :(

    • Thats why I stay far, far away from Eastwood. only go there if I wanna eat Korean food 
    • I have to agree like, yesterday, I was driving down the warringah freeway towards the bridge when this jackass driving a beaten up Honda civic cut me off so suddenly it made me almost yank the wheel to avoid him hitting my car. Honestly and he had the NERVE to flip me off (or some other gesture Idk). Im a calm guy, but really some people just dont deserve to have a license, let alone be allowed to drive on densely populated roads/highways. If youre gonna cut through lanes at least use the damn turn signal
    • HPA do an interesting video on tuning, and Adrian shows on the dyno, moving from 10:1 to 12:1 (And I think even 13:1) and the power moves SFA. However, a couple of degrees of timing has a HUGE impact. Exhaust side of things will more be the length of the exhaust and how many bends and turns you have. The straighter you can keep it, the better. By a lot. Oh, and getting the diameter right. Bigger isn't always better. Going to big can actually lose you power.
    • I have to say, most people I see on the road fit the bill of atrocious drivers. Whether they be cowboys in their dual cabs, bogans in the Commodores, or the soccer mums. Pretty much most people on the road put zero freaking thought into driving. Barely look further up the road then the end of their bonnet, and have never even thought about how catastrophically wrong shit can go, by doing what they all deem as normal driving. Especially their late braking, racing to stopped lights, and sitting half a foot off the bumper of the car in front at 110km/h. Wanna know what's even better? By the time their kids get to be old enough to learn to drive, they've already got in the back of their brain what is normal driving, how annoyed you're allowed to get at people etc, and then their parents who actually have zero freaking skill at driving (Even though they constantly say "I've been driving for 20 years and never had an accident!") teach the little twerps how to drive, or should I say, how to make a car move. Literally watched a parent teach their L Plater, on a 4 lane freeway, that you just slam the brakes on, and push your way over, even with a B Double bearing down on you, and that's how you should drive, rather then, just keep going to the next exit. Same shit happens all the time for side streets etc, watching numpties pull dumb shit turns pushing across 3 lanes of traffic, rather than just go up the road another 30 seconds, and take the next turn that'll get you to the same location... Oh, and the damn right lane bandits. Or the retards driving along with their headphones in, and can't hear the ambulance or fire truck right up their ass about to run them over...   Pretty much, people drive on the road, like ego centric f**ks, and don't actually think how dumb shit their driving is, how it could easily kill them or someone else in a split second, or at the very least, how they're driving is contributing to all the shit they're bitching about on the road, like shitty congestion!
