*Alert*

Times are bad these days. Two of my buddies lost their cars, a pearl white Honda Civic EG - WFC 400 (stolen on March 19 2008) and a white Honda Civic EK - WEQ 3366 (stolen on March 29 2008), 10 days apart. It is so depressing yet unbelievable to accept the fact that these two cars were stolen. It is suspected that the culprit is the same person, but we are waiting for further information regarding the incident.

If anyone has any information regarding the wereabouts of these cars, do contact:

Thanks.

2008 Nissan Skyline GT-R

What is your child hood fantasy? Swimming in a pool of candies? Eating unlimited amounts of ice-cream? Being an astronaut? Pfft. For me, it is the love at first sight i had for the Nissan Skyline, back when I was a kid, playing Grand Turismo 1.

And now, in 2008, a new Godzilla has arrived. Behold, the new 2008 Nissan Skyline GT-R. The new GT-R is a complete redesign from the old BNR34 model. It offers ultimate performance for virtually every driving situation; be it snow, rain, city driving or a go at the Nurburgring Circuit, thanks to advance technology and driving dynamics.

The new GT-R features an all-new 3.8 liter twin-turbo V6 VR38 engine, featuring plasma sprayed bores and a special twin-turbo exhaust manifold system. This mean that you will be getting approximately 473 bhp @ 6400 rpm at the engine and a maximum torque of 434 lb-ft from 3200 to 5200 rpm.

The power is transfered to the ground using the all-new GR6-type dual clutch transmission with paddle shifters and a Borg Warner six-plate dual clutch for direct control. The Bilstein DampTronic1 system is used to provide the ride with appropriate damping forces to take that next corner or to hit that straight-line road. Large Brembo full-floating drilled rotors, low steel high stiffness brake pads and Brembo mono block six-piston front and four-piston rear calipers offers superior braking power, highly needed for a super car in this caliber.

The car's overall design is also a work of an engineering marvel. Body panels of this new GT-R is a combination of steel, carbon fiber and aluminum, providing a unique combination of stiffness and lightness. BOSE, the pioneer of luxury high-end car entertainment system, has specially designed a sound system for the new Nissan Skyline GT-R, which includes two forward-facing woofers in the rear center arm rest area combined with traditional door speakers.

Personally, i think sound system for this GT-R is a dumb thing to have. The only sound I would like to hear when driving this beast is the 3.8 liter V6 roaring through the hood. After seeing this car, I can't imagine anything that will ever come close to it. This monster is simply unbeatable.
