Well it's all official, payment goes through for the Chaser in an hour and I will pick it up soon after. I have never been so keen in my life! I just turned 18 today too so this is such an amazing gift to myself .
I shall keep you all posted!
Ah, good old pearl paint, don't scratch it! Nice car, really great it's a manual I'll bet they're rare. Have fun trying to insure it!
Congratulations on your birthday, and on your epic birthday present Legendary.
Much better than staying in shooting terrorists on COD.
Plus.
HOW COOL IS IT OWNING AN ACTUAL RARE CAR FROM GT ?
Hmm?
Kudos and all that.
👍
Yeah...you know...it's kinda cool
Here's one photo i've put up, i'll do the rest tomorrow I think. Nice and wet, cooling down after being a bloody handful. The second boost hits in first and second in the wet its sketchy as all hell .
It needs to be raised a bit, it is on coilovers so that's good. The front bar needs to come off (standard one is behind it) as it's too damn low and scrapes on everything. The exhaust needs to be mounted higher if possible as it also scrapes and the car in general needs to come up a bit because i'll get murdered by police for having it that low and the undercarriage has already scraped once so far.
Duuude don't lift it, it looks perect as it is :0
Ummmmmmm... His last car was an Impreza? The last car was definitely in a lot of GT games, including GT5.

Ummmmmmmm...
If I had bright headlights, and drove 300 km/h, yes, I would be pulled over, and ticketed for everything, including the headlights.
A couple of things. Manuals are pretty rare in Australia and almost impossible to get for this price.MrMelancholy15👍
Not all that rare. Every Japanese drifter and their mom and grandma has a manual. There's quite a number of them. What's rare, is seeing them outside of Japan. For that, Legend is awesome.

Remember, aim for the bigger gaps in traffic, if you're worried. If you've got nowhere to go in order to catch the oversteer, you're in trouble. If you've got room to catch it, you're golden.
1: Police shouldn't care, as long as you don't attract their attention. I've got "illegal headlights" on my car, according to niky and SlipZtrEm, but I've actually gotten the old highbeam-flash from a police officer, but never been pulled over. If I had bright headlights, and drove 300 km/h, yes, I would be pulled over, and ticketed for everything, including the headlights.
2: Nothing wrong with scraping, just make sure it doesn't snag. If your muffler gets pulled clear off, that's when it's a problem. My go-kart scrapes because it's definitely hellaflush... And the local drifters (they drift on public roads, like idiots) scrape all the time.
I say what's above because this.
ClarkLegendary, I don't know much about obscure (at least to me) Japanes cars, what engine is this?
Straight-six (a la Supra) or a turbo four-pot?
KorzaYour asthmatic Impreza wouldn't even get close to 300, let alone 200km/h.
We need moar pics Legendary.
What rims on your car? They look really familiar but I can't seem to place them.
LegendaryAnd yes cops will ruin my life because it is law here to be at least 100mm off the ground at it's lowest point.
nissanfanaticLowest structural point. Exhausts and bodykits are not structural. Hight looks good
I didn't see that. Go on, insult me for missing a word.

Pretty much this. Im saying it needs to be raised because it is THAT impractical. The front lip came off yesterday so now thats just a standard bar. It looks funny but it also looks normal and is much more driveable. If I can just get the exhaust a touch higher without raising the whole car i'll do that but at the moment the exhaust continues to be a small issue.Lol at all the 'Scraping is fine' comments. Some people actually like to drive their cars regularly, without annoyance, and not have to remove bits. Raise it up dude. It will still look rad, and it will be a lot less annoying it drive.
Saw that photo, and wow, is that a beautiful car. Congratulations

Sorry for the slight de-rail, Legendary, but...
Just because you haven't been pulled over, doesn't mean it isn't illegal. But we've already covered how you're fine with putting others on the road in danger 👍
Now, back on topic: that is one clean, clean Chaser example, well done! I'd say a slight raise wouldn't hurt, but either way, I've always been a fan of that car. Congrats on her!

MrMelancholy15And I've discussed plans on getting the headlights changed out, for both safety and appeal. It's just... I'm too busy using the headlights to take them out, and then have them replaced with housings designed for HIDs. Now, get off of my back. I don't need to be reminded of the same thing. I drove through Toronto, and you didn't notice.
Legendary, what's it sound like? Judging by the muffler you've got, it's not very OEM, from the muffler, at least. ...Does it even have cat. converters?
Muffler... What muffler, what cats?
Nah I honestly have no idea, it's loud and sounds like a supra, aka, sex. I might record it sometime for you guys.
