due to a change in situation (Im renting my own house :smt003 ) new car has been put on hold...Infact the car is going in jan and im going back to riding all year round. Not sure if im looking forward to it or not, but will be glad to be riding more, hate not being able to rack the miles up like i used to :(

mate that nissan sunny gti-r (pulsar) is as fast as they say, i went 2 japfest last year nd u shud ave seen them flyin round, not 2 mention round the streets, i was in with my uncle in his impreza 2l turbo nd this pulsar just flew away from us, was unreal man, they are awesome, gotta watch out tho cus they have absolutly crap brakes nd gear boxes tend to go easily, ive been looking into them for about a year because i really really want 1 :smt010

yep gearboxes are shite.
my dad used to import them, most people have them for a month, get used to the speed and then try dropping the clutch too quick and shatter first gear...
most people nick the front rotors and calipers off the skyline R33 and change the wheels to suit though... ooo and watch out for a strong smell of petrol from behind the block, theres a fuel line routed round the back that needs ALOT of work to change.
The bike only goes as fast as you want it to...
...i know, it's great :D
