it did get patched, i dont think you cant do it anymore. The only way i can think of getting money fast is doing regionals with the log in bonuses?
 
Funny i mentioned it yesterday, but i got my new copy of GT6 in the post today, so i guess you guys will be seeing a lot of me again :sly: Currently in the process of updating..
Whilst i'm waiting, may as well ask now rather than later, what is a good way i'm gonna be able to get money straight away? Because i'm a little behind..

You can repeat the RedBull events as many times you want.
That's how I keep getting money.

Edit:

Omg I'm dying of laughter :lol::lol::lol::lol:
RB30 said to me over voice chat 'yeah you better leave before I find out where you live'.
I left just so he felt tough.

Lucky you have a reason for doing good in school.
And with thinking about what im trying to work towards with both of the cars just makes me think, I'm going to be spending most probably 20k if not more on the R31 before I will think it's track ready and with the Volvo with how much parts cost for it plus how anything I want done to it would have to be 100% custom made it end up being stupidly expensive.
And at the end of the day is it really going to be worth it?
Because the R31 could be ****ed in the first time I take it out on the track and then it's like what now? There goes however much money of replaceable parts and labor that went into that.

Dude you are kidding yourself If you think of spending 20K on an r31 save that cash man and import a track car from japan for 10K completely ready for the track. Use the r31 as a starter car get it drivable and use it on the track don't waste money on it. There is so many options out there don't get bummed out about it R31 does not have to be road worthy just pass the scrutineers at the track any experience at the track is going to be experience. I don't know the full story bro but from experience with cars they are always drain on the piggy bank and an R31 to me aint worth that money. Just an example I looked at an 180sx with a rb25 for $4000 ono unregistered add $10000 to that and you have a great track car.

@Stavingo,
Yes it does but have you tried tandeming with them?
If you try to lead with them they just sit there and ignore you, also if you try to chase they either leave the track or start abusing you, sometimes even both.
If they actually wanted to be a decent drift team they'd drift, but no first thing on the agenda lets piss off another team because we can't move on from the past...

But what would I know right, 'I'm in a team that's been around for how many years now that still needs to learn their place and respect others.'
A quote from RB30.
The quote would be longer but the only other words used are 🤬,🤬,🤬 and 🤬. :P

Thing is I don't want to buy a car that already has this and that done to it.

I hate buying peoples "finished" and unfinished projects mostly because I've had bad experience's with that before and I know alot of people that have bought other peoples "ready to drift" cars and they have been full of shifty mods that have only been half assed.

And the 20k would be to have it pretty much done but a big part of that is the drive train I want to use and since I'm in Victoria a full CAMS spec cage.

Also I have another R31 on the way and that's going to be used as the starter car.

But the whole point was just anything can happen on the track and I know the R31 will get beat to **** probably but just one heavy hit to the front and it's GG for the whole car.


Also Sai I see dat clip you sent to TheSlapTrain for the top 5 drifts.

You can't really expect to go all out, so early. Your only what 19? Wait till you get a good paying job, cut down to two cars. A daily, and the project car. These things take time and money, if you wamt to do them right. Also when you put in that kinda money into those cars. THERE IS NO GOING BACK. You have to keep powering through, life is a risk, this is just another. If I was you, the brick and the Fairlane would go for a EF civic (cheap and economical) and then what ever you fancy from your budget. Plus if your going LS1, then shouldn't be a worry. There is no abundance of parts here for them, and they are quite bulletproof. Imagine the first start of your R31, a whole lot of smoke. It shakes the chassis abit, everytime you give it a squirt, you feel the car tilt a tad, and the electrifying LS sound showing the flaws of modern car alarms. For me thats motivation, thats what I do to keep my drive and determination.

As to what Drifta-AJV said, i see your point. Its cheap and it done for you, but then again. Going over weld done in its "modification" can you say you did that? Its the sense of achievement that we get when everytime get in a car, thats what we all want. But sometimes its not so obvious, a car to me should make me smile with every tap of the throttle. Thats what building a car for me is like, the sense of achievement.

I don't plan on going all out with it, **** knowing me it won't be "done" until im like 25 or something and I'm okay with that.
And I know with putting money into cars there is no going back, already been there when I put about 10k into a VL and it ended up being unregistrable among other things.

And I really can't scrap the Fairmont and go with something smaller because I'm not a small guy at all plus all the EF Civcs around here are full of rust and I have a thing against rust even in a daily beater.

I get that feeling when I start it up still even though it's just a RB30 with straight extractors and a slight cam.

So ask your self? Do you really want that LS? Or not? From what you just said I think you don't.
 
No offence, but start saving up for an education, a house... When you have a well paid job, maybe than you can think about spending even 3k on a car.

21k, is something I wouldn't even spend on a car and I have had quite a bit of track experience. :s It's a solid waste of money, nothing more. :s

Alot of guys i know, regret spending so much on their cars.. But it seems to be a trend, to build a car and sell it for a deposit on a house.

Yeah I do, from the few different LS cars I've been in or driven they have put a much bigger smile on my face then any other car I've been in.

Honestly I've already spent more than that on car's already. Like at the moment I've got atleast 2-3k worth of car parts sitting around my computer desk.
With like getting a education I've honestly given up on the Education system that Australia has and that started at the end of Year 10 because they told me that even though I had grades that where far past the standard that I'd have to redo the whole year because I had missed alot of days but I only missed alot of days because I was sick alot and I got bullied pretty much everyday that I was there and they wouldn't do **** about it and when I tried to do something about it nothing happened.

That's why they are called trends, and not common sense... ^^
But it's all part of what people want to do, some people want to get married some don't. Some want to own a house, some don't and then there are the people who want to spend XX amount of money on cars then there are the people who just want a car to get them from A to B.

Its dead money mate Im 31 have had a few cars in my time the value you see in your car is never the value someone else sees in it. I totally agree with your comment about the satisfaction of doing mods and being proud of them but my point was I guess is what are you doing it for I would rather build my car while gaining experience on the track and let my car grow with me as in the better driver you become the more beneficial your mods are going to be. What I was also thinking was he dosn't need to have that much money to get started his interest in keeping the project going while still driving will always be more than just a car sitting in the driveway or garage.👍

Agree with you a 100%... Because i had the cash, and it was available to me at the time... I went for a build that put my car of the road. Instead of a slight increase of performance as i improved my self. It really just depends on the car, budget and person. $900 KE70, $1900 for the engine swap and transmission. Then another $4000 on just restoration parts, AE86 Dash, Seats, Suspension, Braces, paint etc... Which left me at $6800 for the entire, build worth it for me... In my opinion, it catered to my needs and wants. Also followed the law too, hence why i went full on for my build. Instead of the gradual increase of modifications..
 
I was trying to quote DrifTa-AJV but my tablet wont do it. :I
I know what you are getting at and I really should of worded some of what I said better.
That 20kish mark is what it would cost to do everything I want right away but what I have been doing is saving up for something then buying it and alot of the mods I want to do are ones to improve how the car handles and tye car does sit in the driveway quite abit normally because of lack of tools, weather or I just have more important things to do.
But when it does get driven its not on the track as of yet because its not caged, its been driven on private property and on the street a couple times (stopped that because wanna keep my licence)
And the whole LS thing is something I want to do but its not needed but the instant power, torque and how they are pretty bullet proof would be abit better then running the RB30E and honestly I dont want to mess with another turbo car for a while.
 
ugh... My parents are just ghey after year 10. After seeing some feature on gaming addictions, i can't even play for a hour. FML.. Honestly don't have anything to do, as i live 45 min away from JZX. Studying is getting ******* annoying and boring. Tried to fix the cog in the falcons door lock actuators. But i can't get the door card of because of ONE RUSTY SCREW in the little pocket where your fingers can go. -_-

I remembering my parents watched something about gaming addictions too and they pretty much said that I would only be able to play for a hour or two a week, my response good luck with that.

Also falcon door cards are the worst thing ever, some of them have special clip and screw things that are impossable to get offat all.

Well show them out with some GTP judges, no more running away from them showdowns

With the crash of the real estate market, what I'm about to say isn't completely true, but it will be again in a year of 8, maybe 10.

Cars, will (nearly) ALWAYS become worth less over time. (Except really rare Ferrari's etc.) You can put 100.000 Dollars in them, people will never pay you the full amount of work, and expenses you put in. With properties, (normally) their value increases over time.

I know that 90% of cars don't hold there value at all and modified cars hold there value even worse but can you never expect someone to pay the ammounts that you did for set things.
Like no matter what it is that you buy you can't expect to getback exactly you boughtit for at all.
