Neither were cheap. $4800 to insure a r33 for around 30k (this was 10 years ago remember lol).Had to go through famous cars for insurance which I believe are no longer around....Taxi is more reliable IMHO.

But parts are cheaper for ricers haha.This is costing me $3300 a year to insure, so not much cheaper than a ricer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just sorting out some more stuff for the money pit.....Rusty undercoat? Wasn't it agreed upon here that it was the colour of choice for the cool people?It will be hitting the track for sure this year Dean. And if it doesn't crack a 10, I'll sell up and buy a ricer! Well maybe not that homosexual, but I'll be disappointed. If it doesn't run a 10, I'll say the exact same thing I said to Adrian... TOO MUCH POLISH UNDER THE BONNET! CAR THINKS IT BELONGS AT AUTOSALON, NOT ON THE DRAG STRIP Ricer's are great. Heaps of lag, unreliable, expensive to fix/maintain etc etc. You don't know what you're missing!! HahaRun Sans bonnet? Surely all that shiny shit must be more aerodynamic than the awesome fraud factory paint finish?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drive it down there with it off as well to save fuel via weight reduction. Oh and that would be good for the drag strip too, hahaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon seems pretty keen on them, so I'll be looking forward to the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
