Hi all,
My name is Scott, I'm 28 and work as a Mortgage Broker. In my 10 years of driving, I've owned 21 cars so far, so whilst I can't claim to have any kind of loyalty to a particular vehicle or make, I have tended to own mostly imports.
I signed up some time ago as I was interested at one point in buying an Aristo, I think at the time I ended up with a Legnum (fantastic car!) which I sold then bought a Stagea (not nearly as good) which turned into a Silvia etc etc, I find it hard to follow myself!
Now I own a Twin Turbo kitted V35 Skyline and thought I should get posting as I'm looking for a less expensive car and was hoping somebody on here might be interested in trading an Aristo in for a newer car!
Check my For Sale thread if your curiosity is piqued!

Gday fellow forum people!
My name is Joel. I'm creeping up to 30yrs old, am married and have a beautiful 5 month old daughter.
I have owned various cars but my '93 RZ Supra is the only one worth knowing about, which I sold a couple of years ago.
I have recently sold my '06 Navara ST-R and am in the process of acquiring a Blue '96 Aristo with sunroof and leather. I can't wait to go for a long drive in my new baby.
I'll post up some pics once I take delivery.
Gday! My names Jerry im 24.
I Do sales and Admin for Toyo Tyres in Adelaide.
If u have any Toyo tyre/or Toyo Drift related questions im your man!
Ive owned my 92 Black Aristo for almost 3 years now.
Bought it almost from dealer at 65,000 Ks now just hit 85,000.
I recently tried to sell it and get a Supra TT but nobody would give me what it was worth,
so i decided to keep it and pimp it instead!

hi all. Matt from Perth here. I'm 26 and a converted Toyota nut, having lived and breathed Nissans previously. Im engaged, got a house, 2 dogs and lots of toys
i work in insurance, but Im not going to say who, for fear of being inundated with excessive PMs! Haha
Car list over the years includes;
1993 Ford Laser S - Mazda BP 1.8T engine swap, Wolf 3D, Koni susp, FMIC, big stereo. Cool for a P platers car!
1993 Nissan Skyline R33 GTS25t Coupe - auto, 17" chromies, 3" catback zorst and limo tint. The import bug had a hold of me!
1994 Nissan 180sx - 5spd, 3: catback zorst, coilovers, HKS SSQV. Insurance (at the time) was too expensive so I sold it.
1987 Holden Calais Turbo - Had a mild RB30ET in it (zorst/cooler/boost) then I pulled that out and fitted a RB20DET, what a fail that was! Still one of my favourite cars though.
1991 Toyota Soarer - 1JZ and auto. Only mild upgrades including zorst, cooler, SAFC, pod and boost. also had super low springs and 17" chromes.
1993 Nissan Skyline R33 GTS25t Sedan - 5spd, was pretty stock. only a catback, pod filter, chopped springs and limo tint. Had it 2 weeks then it was hit and written off by a lady who fell asleep at teh wheel.
1993 Nissan Skyline R33 GTS25t Sedan - bought another 5spd 4dr 33, this one was modded though. GT30R, Power FC, 750cc injectors, EBC, full exhaust, DEFI gauges, Recaros, 20" DUB wheels, limo tint and coilovers. made just shy of 400rwhp then I sold it.
1999 Toyota Supra RZ-S - The car of my dreams, a stock body white 6spd Supra with Black Work Meisters. then the mod bug got me again. GT35R, F-Con V Pro ecu, 800cc injectors, EBC, Blitz cooler, HKS GTII gate, HKS manifold blah blah blah. made 442rwhp on mild boost (1.4bar). Went really good!
After the Supra, I got bored and now I am here and about to buy a JZS147!
Another Perth boi here, i am 18, got a gf, thats about it.
Names Sotiris, dont worry if you cant say it properly(LOL) just call me soti!! I am a full blooded Greek and still speak the language!
Just put a deposit on a Black 94 Aristo last nite, so ill get that within a fortnight. Have been into Toyotas for 7-8 years now, i am a very hands on car enthusiast, i do all the work on my own cars and mates cars, i will only let a shop touch it if i cant do the work (i.e. clutch)
Previous rides:
1988 GZ20 GT-L Soarer 220rwhp, now dads daily (140rwhp or so)
Current rides:
1984 Ma61 Supra-5m-ge 140rwhp(recently sold, still waitin for buyer 2 cum pick up)

Hiya, my names Bruno, 23 and married with a 9 month bubz...
Ima 2nd year apprentice electrician, and currently own a 96 JZS147 GTE... and bloody proud of it... Ive previously had a 94 Accord VTi-R, WRX impreza 99 GC8, and then the aristo... i picked the aristo purely for family purposes and also wanted power under the bonnet incase of any commies that piss me off...=D
The only thing on the road that im afraid of racing against are the XR6 - XR8 turbos... or the GTR's, but yeah since my mate had a supra RZ crushed for getting caught illegal drag racing... ive come to my senses, and felt the pain of losing another 2JZ... anyways loving all the pictures u guys are putting up... awesome bodykits =D

piss an aristo owner off....... and u will come out second best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (what a buzz!!)
cheers nick.....
I am selling my GPsports kitted S13 (stage 2) at the moment and hopefully I ll find a nice Aristo in the UK or import one from Japan. I am working as something like the marketing assistant to the marketing assistant..
Aristo attracted me as they seem to offer enough room for tall people and surprise others with the glorious 2jz.
Plan is to keep the used rims i bought and make them fit on a Aristo. I dont plan to make it look VIP, it should look like a sleeper..
Wheels are 10x18 ET22 front and 11x18 ET9 in the back (Veilside Andrew Racing dish) .. working on fenders ftw
