R33 GTR or R34 GTT?

by Dan_Turism0, 18-05-2017, 09:43 AM

Hi guys just curious to what people would go for out of a R33 GTR skyline or R34 GTT? :confused1:

Personally I would be leaning toward the R33 GTR in midnight purple with a nice carbon lower lip however the R34's do have a lot better looking front end.

R33 GTR

RB26DETT engine 2.6L Twin-Turbo all wheel drive 300bhp (approx) and it's AWD

R34 GT-T
(pic is with the GTR face lift though)

Terminator vs Transformers

by parthiban, 18-05-2017, 07:05 AM

Anyone seen either of these films? Saw both of them last week, thought I'd see what everyone else thought of them. I really enjoyed both of them, Terminator was probably the "better" film, but transformers was hugely entertaining!

As far as Terminator is concerned, don't compare it to T2 - that was simply awesome and in my view still one of the greatest films ever made. This film is quite different in style, and pretty good as long as you judge it in its own right

Transformers was not serious at all, so go in expecting a pretty light hearted action film. I found this much better than the first one, the CGI was fantastic whereas in the first it was all too close up and you couldn't really tell what was going on. This one seemed to move more towards the bad boys style of movie making, action and massive explosions separated by comedy - although don't expect bad boys as then you'll be disappointed :lol:

Both are definitely worth seeing :thumbup:

My First RX-8

by Bobby, 18-05-2017, 04:32 AM

Well after selling the IS200 which had been a great car & one of the first I had seriously modded I opted for the RX-8 PZ, thats the 230bhp prodrive/Oz version. Completely different for me as my last few cars had been autos but this time back to the manual (6 speed).
Well did not take long to start with the mods, a few suttle ones to statrt but I am sure the serious ones will happen soon.

So this was my Lexus IS 200


& this is the Mazda RX-8 PZ (unmodded)


Stayed with the Grey colour this one is "Galaxy Grey"....where do they think up these names for colours !!

Anyway will update with modded photos & if there are any other RX-8 owners on site drop me a pm.

Cheers

Bobby
