if anyone ever considers buying a 350z, seriously re consider.

Because of the fuel leak i have i decided to take my sister z to work.

can believe how shitty the visibility is out the windows, especially the rear one.

reverse parking? nah. you cant tell how close you are to the wall. have to get out like 3 times to check.

power? ehh.. good take off, in the wet, i struggled to keep traction, half asleep you have to really baby it. but then when you expect more power up top. nothing. the car seriously gives up at about 4000rpm lol.

oh n not to mention a PITA to get in and out of.

It makes me appreciate the stag and how comfortable it is.

POS 350z, i wouldve sold it by now.

yeh shes got the HR model..its meant to be 30kw more or something..

but whats the point after 4000-4500rpm it literally just gives up. i think im expecting boost.

one other this i forgot to mention.

the speedo gage numbers are wayyy to small. personally i'de rather them larger as u notice if your speeding.

I dont know what the japs did with it, its a POS. im glad the 370z was a massive improvement.

I finally discovered the real reason why Craig buys Nankangs. They keep sending him calendars...

Edit: Fine, a link instead: http://livesniffpetrol.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/PicNews-101203.jpg

Hmm good point. Make sure tagged links in future then...

Mind you, your work probably doesn't like you on SAU all day when you're supposed to be working either?

Well luckily for me I'm not on it all day :pirate:. See above as per Aaron's comments...

I'm sure other's might not appreciate half nakid (fat) chicks popping up on their screens when their boss/colleagues walks by...

If u really wanna share your luv for BBW's there's the wasteland thread for that...hahaha

just got off the phone with Shannons Insurance...

Not impressed.

1st - they don't know my car. That's fine, not many people do.

2nd - after telling them every little bit of detail about my past infringments/mods etc he comes back and says "we can't insure you because your car has too many mods. It needs to be in a garage"

3rd - I told him as I'm moving to a new house soon which HAS a lockup garage, can he give me a quote. He goes for another 10 min and then comes back and said "no, we can't give u a quote until you've moved into a house with a garage".

I guess I need to ring up again and lie just to get a f**king quote. idiots...wasting both our time. If they don't/can't want to insure me just f**king say so from the start...

Thank goodness JCI's online portal is so easy to use...

    • Well, I'm not clicking on a link to f**king bookface (never have, never will), so I can't really know what the complaint here is about, but.... There's nothing particularly wrong with forcing people to have a higher license category to drive super/hypercars. Note that the laws are not about modified cars - only listed standard cars, because there are not supposed to be cars modified enough to meet the law's category limits anyway. If you have a modified car that falls into those power limits you're already in trouble anyway. What is wrong is the bullshit on-line "test" to get the upgrade, instead of any actual work and training.
    • Meh Don't have Facebook anymore but watched a YouTube about it, they also talked about them not being able to use and "sports" modes, not really sure how they would enforce that apart from logging the Db for the cars that have exhaust valve activation in sports mode Apart from all the high end sports cars and supercars that make the sort of power they are talking about standard, I cannot see it bothering anyone else, unless of course road side tests now include having a dyno and scales on site to test the power output vs weight What is it? 500hp per ton? And if the only additional cost is $60 or so, as the video stated, I cannot see that being a war stopper for the people that outlay a few hundred thousand dollars on a performance car In fact, I see it would be a ego boost for some, because they have a "special" drivers licence for a "special"person with a "special" car And if I did have a modified car that made over the limit, there's no way in hell I would apply for a "special" licence, I could see the authorities checking your licence against your rego, so if old mate applied for a licence, but owns a, say, R33 Skyline, that may trigger an inspection of said car as to why, and how, that old mate has a R33 that would fit the bill of making over 500hp per ton Again, meh, not something I believe will be a real issue to 99.9% of people

    • Hi, I'm a new member who has been lurking for a while. Ive been looking to buy an R32, 33 or 34. GTT/GTST for some time now. I'm close to pulling the pin on one,. My question is around roadworthy certificates in Victoria. What can you get away with as far as mods go?  Would a car pass RWC with a haltech dash, aftermarket manifold and high mount turbo as long as ride height and noise was ok? I come from a muscle car background, I'm learning more about our beloved Skylines as I go. I don't want to drop my savings on something to find out I need thousands to get it on the road. Cheers for any input/advice.  
    • The first year I did Putty Road I was driving the old Honda Jazz work car. Being the rear vehicle of the 2nd or 3rd group to make sure no one got lost. The GTRs in front couldn't work out how I "was with them in the twisties"... They didn't like it when they found out I was only cruising and chilling in the Jazz like it was a Sunday drive with my Nan in the car.
