Yeah Jeremy, dont go all out yet.

Because big power costs a lot to get but..... thats only half of it.

You will need other things upgraded to make it useable and safe.

What some people do is work out a final goal, and buy things that will work for that goal. You dont have to have it all at once.

Brakes, maybe wheels and tyres, clutch, possibly driveshaft, diff centre, better suspension, instruments, etc.

Try and write a list of everything and add up the cost, its not cheap. Its almost not worth it when you look at it that way.

For example if you get a computer, get one that will accomplish what you want before moving on to a better car.

Would you bother spending that much on a gtt or just save for a gtr one day?

This can take a while to figure out, and the more you know the easier it is.

And, yes, google is the only way you will ever find out enough. :yes:

Awww, nice.

But look closer, it has old 32 syndrome, a hit in the front has pushed the headlights in a bit at the centre. (Not as bad as mine)

GTSTs and such were not pampered and looked after like some GTRs.

Also a reminder that some of us are heading to sdma tomorrow for some quality queanbo hillclimbing - http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/446214-sunday-at-sutton-rd-hillclimbs/

You know the deal! The more the merrier blah blah :P

    • I clean my wheels every time I was the car, I also clean the barrels, the only product I use on the wheels is truck wash, followed by wash and wax, cleaning the barrels is easy with one of these microfibre thingies on a stick from Sabco, there also great for getting in between the front guards and body, and tight spots in the engine bay ย 
    • An updated post here. Sounds to me like there's definitely a bit of sketchiness here.ย  Old mate with 10 rusting Torana's in the front yard might be more who they're focussed on. (For right or wrong).
    • Is this not just about people wrecking, and storing, multiple cars in their front yard? I now a tow truck driver that was contracted by the council to clean up housing commission front and rear yards in houses and unit car parks I'm all for working on, and doing maintenance on your car in your garage or driveway, but some people definitely take the pissย  There's one house locally to me that I walk past regularly where the front yard and driveway looks like a wreckers, multiple cars in various stages of being stripped, and the yard looks like all of fluids are basically dumped on the ground I may be wrong, but it seems that the initial reports, which I've seen nothing actually official about yet, may be getting taken out of context, like alot of the latest "the sky is falling" stuff found on the youtubes for clicks
    • have they? Link appreciated. I live in Casey. I can see both sides of the argument in this case. There's a lot of sketchy stuff going on. There needs to be a clear definition of what this is supposed to be IMO. I wager the intent was to be a broad sweeping brush against people who have 4 cars up on blocks on their front lawn, not someone who services their own car behind their own gate on a weekend bothering probably nobody. But it'd be hard to legislate the difference there.
    • Oh, the wheels were already off. I wouldn't normally take them off to clean them although it does make it easier with the ceramic, so I might take them off when reapplying. I don't drive much but now with the ceramic coat, when I do drive and they get dirty I can get most off with the pressure washer. I'll be switching to dirtier pads soon which was the motivation for the ceramic as I usually just clean them and sometimes use Autoglym wheel protector. Nah, f**k the barrels! Haha, I'll give them a quick scrub when they're off the car and a pressure wash, but even I draw the line with the barrels. Yes, dark coloured wheels allow you to get away with a lot! ย
