[alr33x]

yehh if i didnt have a misplaced love for 33's i woulda been all over an s13/180 soo good for getting ya slide on and yeh cheap to mod/fix and out of N/A's i dont think any car comes close to comparison .. unless u get a vn on ceptors that'll go sideways but as for controlling it ...well yeh.

[KURAUN]

Dw sau Vic has always been like this. Us guys in the se suburbs have been making our own to make up for the lack of cruises EVEN when there where people that were officIally appointed roles in sau vics "executive" committee to create these small meets for everyone. What a surprise that they did Jack shit and did not organise anything. Of course myself and a few other sau members volenteered for these positions and because of how secluded the executive committee of sau is of course they wouldn't even consider anyone they don't personally like to actually do the job that they are meant to do. I'm already regretting renewing my membership.

Ey i helped with those meets to and im upper northern re

and yeh, part of the reason i didnt renew was the fact most of what i go to are the SE meets

haha

32s arnt that bad (yes the hatred betweens models etc) but for a skyline to drift do it quite well, its either those or a S chassis car really

[Mohsen]

interesting. i've always liked the sil80's but their farkn old. and do they even come in NA?

[KURAUN]

sil80s are made once cars are crashed generally, same with onevia's

[Mohsen]

yeah but they look cool as.

think ill stick with an R33 though.. and then buy a shitter s13 for track days thrash it till it dies!

[KURAUN]

haha funny as

hows about get ur licence first then maybe decide on a car?

[funkymonkey]

yeah any car with a front swap is generally sus.

i'd buy a ceffy. even in N/A form they're fun with a locked diff. great balance of practicality, moddability and stealth. sucks when it comes to panels though.

i want to get somethign and get used to driving it first.

the mercer im driving atm is horrible. handles like a boat, throttle responce is terrible. i have to really put my foot down to make it move, where as the triton is really smooth.

[alr33x]

the sil80 was a 400 car run some are legit..most are smashed 180s as s13 fronts were cheaper more common.. but in all honesty mate for what you want to do a N/A r33 wont cut it.. 32 yes or S chassis you'll never look back.

sure 33 is better interior etc but very heavy without a turbo you'lls truglle to get sideways and do a good job of it you'd basically have to leave stockies on anything with more rubber you want go anywhere

the mercer im driving atm is horrible. handles like a boat, throttle responce is terrible. i have to really put my foot down to make it move, < i imagine an N/A 33 would be sameee

gtst hows the sale goin man? ur car is clean as

[KURAUN]

well drive the triton

[EXTR33ME]

Man...good thread. I must admit, I've been wanting to go to one of the meetings, but not knowing anyone at all there, I'd kinda feel out of place going. I think SAU does need more meet ups & cruises - be it organised by the SAU comittee or SAU members.

I know other forums do have these more often, but I'm personally more interested in meeting others with Skylines than other cars - and some of the other forums do have bad reps for hoons etc (from what I've read)- so not really interested in meeting up with anyone there if it's going to be attracting unwanted attention.

Anyway, that's my opinion on all of this - everyone obviously has and is entitled to their own.

Hopefully I'll be able to make it tomorrow night, will be good to finally meet some people on here.
