yea, most Aussies hate that overacting dimwit... it's the yanks who love him

Can you hjave a link to a page containing all of the pictures that have been uploaded since the user last visited the page, similar to the "View New Posts" link except for images?

ROFL LOL OK, here's a bit of background info for those non-aussies. Collins Class Submarines - Our Government bought a few (3 I think) of these subs from (somewhere?) and they were meant to be totally state-of-the-art, silent, awesome subs. Anyway, once built and running in our waters they discovered they were actually as loud as our battleships... kinda dodgy. I guess someone else can give more information (or correct mine) as I wasn't all that interested when it happened. Big Kev - a bloke who tried to sell cleaning products using patriotism as a marketing gimmick. The goo-remover and stain-remover are great (use the stain remover on your chrome exhaust tip and it comes out like new!), but the rest is pretty average I believe? He's laughable because he's so brash and .. err.. festivly plump. He's got the Nationally-known catch-cry "I'm excited!" You're excited too? Visit www.bigkev.com.au

Yeah that's what I was referring to.. actually the Wiggles are all Big Kev's illegitimate sons.

"Wake up Jeff" isn't just a catch-cry. Jeff is in fact code for one of the dodgy submarines we have noisily making its way to attack Washington D.C. !!!!!!! ROFL

Hi Victor I don't really know - but I know they look very similar... Here are a couple of links I just found then - search on Google and you'll find more! http://members.aol.com/dgdatsport/auto/bluebird.htm http://www.datsunworld.com/610/index.htm

Ahhh great stuff Mike! I always go straight to the Gallery to see the latest pics, so this will make it a lot easier for me (and I'm less likely to forget!).

Mike, it's a 240K because it uses the same 2.4 litre block as the 240Z, only with a different head and a single carbourator. It's rated at 130HP but like the 240Z's 151HP theyre not quite the same size horses anymore... They advertised the car saying "240Z engine with the 510's suspension"... so the handling is pretty good. It is a tank though... This is the Skyline in Japan - the model just after the famous C10 Skyline... I have plans to turn mine into a GTR replica with all the badges and flares and spoilers... but after I was shown some of the brochures direct from Japan with pricing, the idea seems a little expensive :mad: The car was a present to this lady for her 60th birthday present from her mother. She has driven it for 30 years - since new. Yep, I'm the 2nd owner. Fantastic condition. As for the auto box, yes it's fairly chuggish, but makes driving very relaxing. Something the Z doesn't offer (not that I'm complaining!!!). If I go ahead with all my GTR bits I will, of course, change her to manual. ~Lachlan

For those interested, http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showgallery.php?ppuser=1243&cat=500&thumb=1 I've tried to limit the amount of pictures I uploaded of her, as I realise it's a Z site... I have many more!

yeah ... I was just implying that I don't really think the 350Z looks very nice. ... just saying all the Z's are nice and all but the Ferrari takes teh cake Sorry for being confusing ! :cheeky:

Don't worry Alan, I for one find this debate very interesting. I'm sure most others do too - if they dont, they dont have to read it!! McZ has an interesting thought. I'm going to have to check out all of our other cars and then perhaps we can make it clearer as to which side most Auto manufacturers find more ergonomic? Of course, that still will not explain the fact that the rally drivers of LHD Z's had their handbrakes switched over. I think that is the biggest clue as to which side of the tunnel is the "better" for driving. I had another good question but it has slipped my mind now! Maybe a poll is in order Alan?

Mmmmm sexy steering wheel. THe other one makes it look more glossy, but I can see the proper colour in this one yep. My steering wheel spokes have been sanded down at some stage to bare metal...... then they left it. Hasn't rusted yet ! hehe I've always wanted to restore my wheel - I need to find a replacement wheel for the interum first though

Maybe us Aussies should make a list of all the AMERICAN things that are annoying???? ROFL

Why? They sell a LOT of Ferraris in Japan... plus it looks even sexier with that bodykit on
