Japanese Man 1: RUN! IT'S GODZILLA!

There was a westfield kit, sorry if i hit a nerve i wasn't the one who brought up a godzilla kit, i was the one who said (and imo as well) that the R32 is the only godzilla if the westfield racing nissan skyline GTR was referred to has "godzilla" on the race track (which it was) and the standard car (as in the aussie GTR) had a body kit that was available based on the westfield racing cars pumped wheel arches and other visual treats that you could get from the dealer when you laid your money down, and people of the time called it the westfield body, do you think that is would be reasonable that a person today would refer to that same body kit as the godzilla kit? also, why would you get rid of an R32, (unless you'd bolted a teatowel rack to the back, and f***ed it with stupid upgrades) no one really likes the R33, the R34 hasn't got a soul, and the R32 (thanks in part to the hat backward brigade f***ing them up) is becoming rare, s***, when they hit 25yo classic car rego it also doesn't take much to maintain that engine, (provided you haven't f***ed with it) a few simple things brings the fuel usage down, and it shouldn't miss a beat for a million kays, but hey, i dont own a skyline, if i did it would be only the R32 because it is the car with the most meaning, it broke the mold, and brought turbos to the masses far more than any TX3 hot hatch, or VL, because it went hard, and lasted where the other set fire to themselves also the R32 is the only skyline that is wanted by collectors, not the R33, or the R34? as for each one being faster, there are many different trims of GTR, and many different specs, but i'm still pretty sure that the 32 is still the faster straight line the even the new one, it is tract work, or point to point that there is a difference, and the 33 being the most benign handler of them all and mission it is clear that pave cares (alot), but it is cold, so he might need all the help he can get |

i don't care that much, becuase i'm right
if you could find some evidence somewhere of another r32 gtr with westfield livery from the factory i will 'say holy s*** you were right' until then, i think you are full of s***. http://www.hemi6pack.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=26459&d=1282187908 that is a stock R32 GTR body kit, front bar, side skirts, rear pods and the wing. along with standard wider guards on the front and rear. so tell me, what extra would they have added apart from stickers to make this car anymore like the race car? full.of.s*** |

1st car was a freebie from the olds - 1983 Mazda 929 BOOM ! Sold it to wreckers for $75 in the end lol Purchased car history: 1992 Series 1 R33 GTST Skyline - RB25 not allot of mods - still my fav car to this day. 2005 WRX WRP10 - crashed this one.......... Someone else lives with it now. 2005 STi 2.0l - current ride. Few mods - about 200 wkw's. Had for 3 years - wants Nissan again. Next car - R33 GTR VspecII. Sure its not the most popular but a 34 is too pricey (well for all the mods I want to do) and a 32 is gettin a little old. Compared to the R32, the 33 had stronger syncro's in the box, fixed oil probs and the Vspec had newer ATESSA drive and upgraded ABS. Tweak a few other bits, forge the s*** outta the engine, whack on some HKS 2530's - unless I stroke that bad boy. Also rims, 6pot fr callipers and rotors etc etc Id rather have the more durable, slightly newer R33 with big HP than a mental 32 or a much shinier fairly stock R34. As for weight - yes the 33 is the chubbiest ... ill just need another 50HP to cancel that out !! But at around 1550kg its not too bad at all. Dream Car (that is possible) - 2006 B7 Audi RS4 Avant. Station wagon V8 goodness. Fantasy Car - 2003 Honda NSX-R. Wonder if you can still even get one ? Price would have to be well over $500k. |

when they hit 25yo classic car rego it also doesn't take much to maintain that engine, (provided you haven't f***ed with it) a few simple things brings the fuel usage down, and it shouldn't miss a beat for a million kays hahahaha yeah man, that's why everyone wants a skyline cause they're a classic car that is good on fuel and doesn't break down you got it in one |

sound staging would be s*** though. Not that it matters though, the limitation in sound quality is the car, not the speakers. And how do you make that assumption, I dunno about you, but my ears face more to the front than anything and that's where the sound comes from. Also when it comes to SQ judging, they sit in the front seat not the back. I don't care what my passengers can hear, all I care about is what I can hear in the front. |

Copius quit while you are not ahead, you are dribbling... a lot. I would really like a 34 GTR, E46/92 M3 next car. Or I might settle for the new WRX/Sti if it's any good. Can't decide :( I hate choices. Might add : Mate did this in Vegas and he said it was insane. Took the Audi R8 around as well. |

How much are you willing to pay to fill up? |
