Hey guys, picked up my very first GZ20 Soarer this morning, just so happens it is also my very first turbo car/real car/'expensive' car.

Previously I've owned a stock R31 and a KE70 Corolla with a few little mods, which I am driving now and selling very soon.
I study Marketing & Communication at UniSA in Adelaide, should be finished up next year sometime.

I got this car mechanically checked over before I purchased it, a few little things but pretty happy with how well it went for a pre 90's car.

Looks great :-)

Not a fan of the JDM sticker though (pretty sure the green and yellow emblem is the japanese equivalent of an 'L' plate if I'm not mistaken)

Anyways, welcome aboard.. and lol @ another ex R31 owner (myself included... seems a few on here had them as a previous ride)

Haha, yeh the wakaba leaf is the learner plate but symbolises anything JDM. The sticker came with the car & I'm replacing it with this badboy.




Also sideskirts/pods & series II lights aren't on car yet (obviously), will get new pics soon.
