hey all,

as some of you know, i have a formal this year...well anyway some of my friends have asked me about a car because they know im in the car scene and have friends with "hot skylines" etd etc

so anyway, i was just wondering if anyone who would be interested in doing a run could please post a pic (for my friends to choose their fav :rolleyes: ) and also whether it will cost them anything as i know some people charge

it would be cool to get a convoy going, so ill ask a few friends and then we can see from there about meeting places (thats later)

and also, the date is the 12th of december (definate) at erm the convetion centre i think (something like that)

cheers

Gus

disclaimer:the girls will be 15/16 so please dont be looking to score on the way <_<

Gus mine will be finished by December. I can post up pics of it now but you wont get the full effect. As it is in the avatar only with Front mount and other assorted quick bits. The kit will be totally finished wide body (R34 Impul - 1 of a kind) with flat boot. Its got 19's. The stereo (which already kills it) will be finished off. As well as all the usual stuff. Depending on a few things it might have the carbon fibre bonnet done. Anyways enough speculation its guarenteed to look like the pic below at the VERY LEAST but it will be much crazier by then.

I dont set prices on formals as I love doing them but I dont usually turn down donations either.

    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365.

I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
