i had a similar problem with my car. all the black window edges and windscreen wipers were all faded and crappy looking.
gave them a good go-over with some black paint to touch it up and now they look great.

i'll ask some people on my forum and get back to you :D

UMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

i typed v35 to say i like that car and kept coming up with " Big Ugly Soap Box Racer " whats that about :? thats why i just wrote that separate to see if it would come up again, can we not talk about the 350gt ? lol

i think FTOs are a perfect p plate car :)
nice and reliable, tiptronic transmission, sweet interior.. pretty much everything you could ask for.
i love R34 GTTs. i've got a few mates with them.
if they werent so common i would probably buy one myself when i get off my Ps


as for the big ugly box racer thingo, you've just discovered the Bens big penis :lol:

you're not allowed to say sky.line on here :P

Posted: Thu Mar 05, 2009 11:19 pm
by ftofionaaa
OMG so you can no say sky.line ? why ? what happened im so confused. lol


Yeah everyone has skylines now everywhere i go i see a million a day i like car that people dont really have many of, definitely the fto is a good car i have been really happy with it so clean inside and out i love it :)

are you going to buy an fto or no ?

my car was giving me a lot of trouble a while ago so i was just gonna sell it for cheap and buy an fto instead but it's running really well now and i've just done about $3000 of mods to it so definitely need to keep it for a while.

after i sell this car, who knows, might buy an fto :)

yeah I like having a unique car. mine is even less common than an fto. mr2s are 'mid-engined' like a ferrari, lamborghini etc.
definitely something different :)

Aww good yeah i haven't really seen that car before only sometimes but it is a nice car and if its running good at the moment then defiantly keep it :D

would you know by any chance any good speakers for the car?
I had some but couple have blown and i do have an amp as-well xplod i think it is, i just want something that can play music half decent instead of getting all the other stuff lol

i recently upgraded my system.

Got a kenwood bluetooth deck, kdc-bt7539u, which i dont think you'l need as u got a detachable dvd which i wanted!!! :cry:

For the speakers i got
pioneer ts-a1702c (Front splits)
pioneer ts-a6972e (rear 6x9)

and i've got a pioneer amp, gm6400f. just recently came out, and i cant wait to install it.

i recommend those speakers, excellent quality, great bass from the 6x9s cos the car is smaller and the boot acts as an enclosure. and here's a tip, go to JB hifi and ask for the a small package of stuff, for a cheaper price, try and push for just above cost. maybe even get it installed there too.

:D

i've got a friend who works in the car audio industry so i can ask him for you if you want :)

or just create another thread on my forum about the stereo coz we need more topics lol.

personally i've got MTX 6" splits in my car. they sound AWESOME

lol too quick robbie!
there's your answer fiona. pioneer make good stuff :)

but if you want a second opinion, you know where to go ;)

Wooohhh.... wohhh...

2nd opinion? i dont think so... :lol: kidding.

and pioneer do make wicked stuff.

here's another tip. Sony. No go. i went to the latest training session with them, and all the features their putting into their products is old stuff, stuff the other brands have had for quite a while. like, 2 or even 3 models previous.
if you want a good sub, go jl audio or cadence. i thought the sony pentagon shape sub was going to be wicked, but i was disappointed. you can hardly hear the bass when you switch it from the jl to the sony...
