well about the many times mentioned, bullet proof GT-R transmission:
http://www.************/forums/index...howtopic=25361


"I was driving my gtr two weeks ago and I heard a loud noise coming from the rear. I turned immediately had my gtr towed to crown nissan st. petersburg fl. They didn't touch my car only called some techs from tennessee to look at the car and record the noise, 4 days later two guys from japan to download some info from the car then left. Then I get a call from the dealer to tell me the news, and they told me that the car was driven without vdc too much and nissan will not warranty the transmission which they said was destroyed, I asked them how much to fix it they told me 20k, no freaking way I will pay 20k on top of what i just paid for the car. I called the gtr number and also talked to nissan consumer affairs got nowhere, now the car is sitting at the dealer. I know we shouldn't launch the car but why own it if you cant use this function, don't sell a car that goes 0-60 in 3.4 sec if the only way you can achieve this speed is to void the warranty , false advertising. Here is the bad news people were fearing it has happened to me and Nissan has told me there are already three people in my shoes, if you are one of these people email me, we have got to get together on this. Just think if any of you guys have taken the vdc off just a few times you have already voided your warranty, good luck what a joke nissan."

I personally chose a MR at the day of launch over the GSR when i could get GSR way below invoice for months. (good fren of mine is manager of mitsu dealer) anyways, its 2 different experience. If u want a sport/lux cruiser get MR with better interior and stuff. If u gonna heavy mod and dun care abt low quality fabric get the GSR. =]

ahhhh... If I were you, I'd have to buy a Holden. Then again, Holden to you is prolly like Chevy to us. Been around them for so long you don't even give 'em a second glance
I'd kill to have a REAL Holden. Speed Channel used to show "Austrailian Supercar"? Watching a bunch of 4-doors hauling *** around a track, and hearing a bunch of screaming V8's was weird, but damn awesome. Too bad gas prices will never come back down.. GM had just started realizing the American public digs that kind of stuff, and had started re-badging or slightly tweaking Holdens under the Pontiac name. It would have been nice if they eventually brought over some of the more powerful models.
Anyway...good luck
