Ha ha.. you should have seen him when he won a 1:18 scale calsonic R32. He took to school for news today bless him!

Hi spranga,

:P Jim Richards signed the award for "Best Concours R32 GT-R" as well as Terry Ashwood.

:P You've been sent a PM with my addy so you can send your "Best R32" award certificate back to me.

Then it can be signed by Jim and Terry and perhaps Alan Heaphy at "A Night With Jim Richards" on Dec 12th (unless you already have a booked seat and do it yourself on the night).

Cheers, Terry

Well this is where the 1/10 scale Winfield GTR ended up, thought I would let it spend some quality time with the winning GTR before it moves inside on display and for our baby boy that will arrive in next few weeks to play with when he grows up.

Looking forward to see some more video footage looks great so far :)

Hi Brian,

:P Jim Richards as well as Terry Ashwood has signed the award certificate for "Best Concours R32 GT-R"

:P Jim and Terry are prepared to sign yours (and spranga's "Best R32" certificate) as well, of course.

You'll see a PM from me with my addy, if you'd like to send yours back; unless of course you're already booked to go to the SAU.NSW Event - "A Night With Jim Richards" which is when it'll be signed (by Terry A, Jim and Alan).

Cheers, Terry

Hey Congratulations on your Boobie Prize Award Jonny!!!

Must say; your car deserved it... LOL

No other car came close! LOL

Tell us what your folks said about it??? Or anyone else for that matter???

Folks couldn't understand why i would put writing on my car

I think writing that stuff about my mate has made him delay finishing my guards lol

The look on people faces when they pull up next to me and read the writing is priceless

Thanks again Terry

Thanks to everyone for coming and for all the hard work in putting on the event itself - great memories of 10/10/10.

Received my copy of PI in the mail today (it's issue #133, with a dark blue Garage Kagotani s8 RX7 on the front cover) - great article by Matt (God_speed), and great photos too! Awesome work!

30 Great Pics in P.I. #133 :thumbsup:

with great quotes like these...

"Those GT-Rs are race cars, not touring cars"

by Jason Round's observation of a 1992 Bathurst 1000 pre-race interview.

"Despite these cars being some 20 years old now, their ability to inspire confidence in adverse conditions has barely diminished."

by Matt Tung-Yep (aka God_speed)

"In my opinion, Skylines Australia has always been something of a perfect club."

by Ed's Perspective

"Collectible souvenirs from this occasion include the cover story featured in CARSGuide in the Daily Telegraph 8/10/10, this article in Performance Imports Magazine, a feature in the upcoming Motive DVD and professional photographs available through the club."

by Matt Tung-Yep and Jason Round

My copy of Motive 11, just arrived. Nice article and nicely spoken Terry!! :D

The spokesman can't crack a smile Kat!

That's what Maria said when she saw it.

Tried to explain how editing works > smile-no-show.

But she still thinks I'm a nasty piece of wk. :/ > :P

PI Mag #133 available now at newsagents! Pages 84-89 and as Nick said, "Great Article by Matt"

Motive DVD #11 available at Easter at newsagents! Over 7 mins on this Celebration + footage of rare Skylines! Andrew Hawkins did a great job!

    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new  
    • Nissan needs to forget about building SUVs in every size possible and bring back the damn Silvia/200sx duo to compete with the 86/brz. Maybe with the Honda type r motor pointing the right way
    • Good to see you followed your heart, got your dream car and have it pretty well sorted out now. I think anyone can get caught out with a seller not being 100% honest about a cars problems. Can relate to all the electrical issues, had similar issues with my first car (mk2 escort) ages ago
    • I just bought the Nexus S3 for my gtt, haven’t installed it yet as I’m collecting parts to do everything at once…so far spent $14,000 The Nexus is nearly future proof
