Um I'm not sure if I even did this when I joined, so here goes.....better late than never I guess.
Here is a bit about myself....I'm adopted from Thailand & came to good ol Oz when I was 4yrs.
I'm 30 now & have 2 kids, 1 my step son Maison & 4 months ago had my
first son called Lyrik. Bestest feeling!! I have a awesome partner of 3 yrs.
I work in a printing firm and looking to get into security industry maybe next year. I play basketball when I can to keep fit.
Love my UFC but not as much as my Aristo of course.
Best car I have ever owned thats for sure & can't wait to do so much mods to it both cosmetic and mechanical.
Aristo's/GS300's out their,..if you see one & you get a chance, say wassup.
See you all out their
Peace & safe driving all. _________________

Unfortunately im not the proud owner of an aristo yet, but im trying to offload my R32 GTST so i can get one for myself as a chrissy present. Hopefully ill be cruising out with you guys very soon.
cheers.

Welcome aboard guys!!!!!
HEAPS OF INFO HERE!
Unfortunately, i find the search function frustrating to say the least. I would recommend trying Google to search the website. It works much better. Use the advance page in Google and type in this website and what you are looking for.
Hey guys, my name is Jason,i am 39 and live in Brisbane.Just picked up my Aristo last week and so far im very happy with the car.
Previous rides are a bit of a mixed bag of makes and models including:
* 1963 Prince Skyline
* 1982 Mazda Rx-7
* 1977 Ford Escort
* 1979 V8 Ford Fairmont
Had heaps of shitty A to B cars as well,looking forward to learning about the Aristo and moding her as it is pretty much stock except for a cat back exhaust.
My name is Iain and I live near Gosford/Woy Woy on the NSW Central Coast. I've had a long history with Subaru RS Libertys, V8 Holdens and E30 BMWs, but I'm looking for a change to something more comfortable for commuting duties but still have enough grunt to put a smile on my dial. I started looking at JZ-powered MX83 Cressidas, but they're a bit too close to an RS Liberty for me (ie: old and bunky) so i've been looking at JZS147 Aristos and 160/161 GS300s.
I'll be lurking for a while until I sell my current Liberty RS wagon. I sprayed it myself at home (first time i've ever done that), it's got a full 2005 STi Impreza drivetrain (box, diff, cradle, arms, etc) and plenty more mods. It's a lot of fun, but I want something more cruiser-spec than racecar for the road.
Hey my names Steve. 26 years old from Sydney, have a gf & no kids. Im currently customer service manager at St. George at Kogarah. Been there for nearly 6 years now. Previous rides include:
1982 Mercedes Benz 280SEL lowered on 18's tints, aftermarket light
1994 Nissan Maxima J30 stock standard cept the head unit
1998 Nissan 200sx S14 Series 2 coilovers, Chargespeed kit, fmic full zaust rims etc loved this car
1994 Daihatsu Mira L200 coilovers tints sticker bombed best daily till someone decided to run in the back of me and write it off
1989 Honda Civic GL Hatch had it for 2 days then swapped it for the next car
1991 Honda Civic GL Sedan (Currently for sale $1700 ono)
1984 Daihatsu Charade turbo love this thing!
and now...
In the process of buying my 1st Aristo test drove one the other night and im AMAZED by the power they have such a difference from my 200sx!
I've also got an AE86 Corolla that I bag through the mountains around here. I'm a technician at a Toyota dealership and now I finally own some Toyotas!
Some of them died a grisly death and others were way too good to partout. Alot of boys on here own cars ive sourced or done up & either onsold to them or sold as is for cheap.
I love the cars but theyre getting rarer by the day around the world. _________________
