QLD Whoretown...

What was the exchange rate like when they were new?

[chaos]

hey hey nex

what was the question?

[Nexus9]

How much did a GTST go for when released in Japan?

$35000

[Nexus9]

What was the exchange rate like when they were new?

Ahhh good point.

probably would have been about 45-50K which seems about the right price for a car like a GTST.

35K seemed a little low.

[chaos]

fark and there like what $17000 - $20000 now on average

[NismoGirl]

The ones going for that price are all oolder than ~11 years.

I don't reackon that's too bad. Especially when you see commodores selling brand new for $30000 and are now being sold for $12000 ...

[predator]

exchange rate is up to 84.5 or thereabouts.. getting higher by the day. Good time to import something if you have the money.

[SmoothLine]

They were much more than even 45k i beleive when new... ie if you brought a brand new 97 r33 in, in 1997

Anyone know a place that might have a top secret front bar? Gordo, where did u get ur new bar from???

[predator]

no idea smooth I got my bar from Jetspeed in melb. Its so hard to get original stuff or something different. try DMD

Otherwise if you have the money speak to Rezz, he should be able to speak to some people in Japan and source you one. Won't be cheap I wouldn't imagine, but may be able to get an original.

It sucks when you want to be different you have to pay much more. All the stuff that jetspeed had looked pretty hideous, or cost a bit more, so at the time just went for the 400R because it was there and still looks good.

Is this similar to yours??

[Nexus9]

Just had a thought which occured to me whilst in another thread,

I think QLD has only one moderator at the moment, I mean check this out......

Squizz: Last post..... 11-12-2003, 02:36 PM

Birty: Last post ............ 11-09-2003, 09:45 PM

BOOSTMEISTER can't be the only one left can he?

Maybe a couple of job openings for those responsible post whores amongst us :Pimp2:

[strutto]

pick me! pick me!

PH1 is a mod too...

[predator]

kinda funny.. not that you really need a stack of moderators though unless there are a heap of posts though. Wasn't Squizz moving, or had moved down to Brisbane or something ?? That was the last i saw of him.

Bit pointless to have mods that never come on, but i'm sure that will be sorted out eventually.

[strutto]

Actually upon further investigation... PH1 is an administrator...

Slip, Gary1 and [ABU53] are super moderators...

[Ska]

Moderation, well I think we dont really need it at the moment, but if we have to then yeah I'd choose strutto, NismoGirl, Pred or Nexus9, as they all seem to have been here for a long time, and they are pretty sane

[predator]

i'm not sane! don't insult me

yeah.. supermoderators can mod any section.. not that it really needs it here..

[SmoothLine]

Gordo, nah that isnt like mine... Ive called j-spec and they are seeing if they can get one... If not i'l get an original from japan...

Im going to speak to prank about getting a private events section and also new moderators for this section...

[Nexus9]

A private events page

now that's a GOOD idea

[SmoothLine]

I have sent a PM regarding the events section etc, so I will let everyone know how it goes.

I also think a gold coin donation when we meet up is a great idea so I mentioned that too...

[predator]

if slip has paid membership that will be good. Even if its only $20 or something.. bit of money for somebody to play with organise some fun events. few $ from that can go to Prank and SAU

:werd: brotha!
