, have a good squiz there and that'll give ya an all rounder on whats on sale down here

Yeah It's nice and warm here, its been a raining a bit lately but bright and sunny outside at the moment :)

Also just a quick question.. what the chances of finding a 6 speed, aerotop, j-spec RZ , TT around? I havent come across many in my searches at all and just wondering how rare they really are? thanks

Welcome,

I hope you find the Supra of your dreams but a word of warning. I will ban you forever if you post pics of it bathed in sunshine. ;) :D

On a related note: I hear the Police in Australia are super strict about speeding. True?

Like proverbial rocking horse manure :)

They were never made officially, but I don't know for sure what the Americans got!

I think they are all auto to manual conversions, but then again, they were non-turbo SZs and twin turbo GZs (like mine, although mine's still an auto), not RZs (facelift).

Hello and welcome, by the way :)

Whats that you want pics of her in a swimsuit near the beach? no worries :p

Yeah the police here are quite strict with regards to speeding and hoons in general, if you so much as look like you have something hot under the hood they'll pull you up and get you to pop it. Anything like a BOV venting to the atmosphere and you get snapped with fine for defects. As with speeding your allowed 10% over the limit any more and it'll cost ya 1 point and 100 bucks up to 11 k's over then its 3, over 25 and its 6, any more than 40 i think and bye bye license
