spotted wrecht on firesport :P

oh and in an upcomming episode of veronica mars there is a bj park in the back ground.

anyway on a serious note, just starting up a fresh thread for astina sightings.

quote from the old thread:
Seen an interesting Astina around lately? Tell us about it! :D

just give us a basic description:

Model: eg. BG/BA/BJ
Type: eg. SP/Hatch/Hardtop/SP20/1.6/1.8/2.0
Color: Noble Green (because they're all bloody Noble Green) :roll:
Mods: if any
Numberplate: well, it might be someone on the board!
State/Country: well, considering we have members everywhere...

go to it! :)

[Cosmo Dude]

I vote to keep the old thread.

Damn, the HT looks almost like a match box car next to the 3's. You don't realise how much size difference there is until you put them next to each other.

[Dogo]

[Ian]

A red Bg Astina with numberplates 321 HEO tried to go me last night at surfers paradise.

The turbo flutter and spinup didnt convince him that he didnt stand a chance, so I flogged the **** out of him, twice.

Anyone here?

[Red Frog]

Saw a white BJ Astina with 2 large, red racing stripes up over the bonnet and roof at Wentworthville on the Cumberland Hwy on Thurs morning. Rego ROB-16E.

[Mad Mat]

i saw a bg astina go thought the richland today the number plate was 270jcr. i know it was an astina gt member because it had the jab tail lights on it. it was grey or a green. but i was yelling at u saying "ASTINA GT MAN", "U HAVE GOT TO LOVE THE BG'S". i was i my mates brown lada. hehehehehe u have go to love the lada's. they do very good hand brake slides around round-abouts :p

Nope not us-no personalised plates, just slimline blue ones..but we are sometimes in around Baywater...you'll see us in heathmont sometimes on canterbury road....there is someone in Croydon with one, highly likely it was them.

The way to tell ours is that as far as I know...its the only one with a sunroof...and has the OMC decal..and black rear lights...but sunroof is the giveaway.

Still could have been you - they were slimlines, and looked blueish (hence why i said personal). And i think it was raining, so no idea if you had a sunroof. The SE was 6 lanes of traffic over!

I forgot to say, my wife was nowhere near there with it that day...lol...knew i forgot something. But she gets around a lot during work going to different clients so its amazing that noone has ever seen it, especialy with so many members living in the same area.

[wicky]

anyone with a black sp20 around the chelt area in vic? sweet ride

[CityEnd]

spotted a red BA hatch on footscray rd before i think that plates were [REDDAZ] or red something, anyway it had an exhust

i was on my bike and we were both at the lights, i tried to drag with it, when the lights turned green, I reved the bike up, let go of the clutch was still standing there not moving, but the astina had taken off, i look down and noticed i was still in nutrual... how embarrassing.. :P

from what i could see it was a clean astina, anyone here?

[pr1mo]

has a big veilside wing and cyber kit like daves yeh?

[Drunknmonkeyau]

Drove past a nice white BA on burwood highway about 7ish on friday night.

I've seen two sports editions in my travels to and from work already... I checked for the tell-tale tail-lights, but they both had OEM's. I pass the Glen and surrounding areas all the time, but I never see your car.

[pr1mo]

I havn't seen you yet i work up near pennant hills and past the F3 to go home on the Pacific Hwy

[Red Frog]

^^ prob cos you're looking out for an astina. i'm in a laser and apart from it being lowered, it looks completely stock, old granny style. thou there sure ain't an old granny behind the wheel! i always flog the car off at those lights near the F3, but then i have to slow down secs later to turn left ;) hehehe still, it's nice when there's a skyline or an SSS next to u ;) lol i will "obtain" an AGT sticker at sum stage and plaster it across the windscreen. also, when money becomes my friend, the stockness of the laser will start to disappear :D

[Rupewrecht]

[Trav]

Well, boys and girls, just got back from Germany. Couple of days in I saw a nice BA, then a couple of days later I was sighting them everywhere. Didn't have any cards with me (DAMN). Most I saw were all modified in some way shape or form (wheels, tips, steering wheels etc).

Anyway, I hope to go back again son, so this time I'll remember to take some cards with me :)

[Rupewrecht]

Where have you been? :P

saw you a few months ago on Heatherdale Rd.

[pr1mo]

hey trav. long time no see!

[Trav]

Thanks guys! Bought land (Rupe knows where - even commented on my sexy car with my sexy trailer attached), went overseaes, and going back over to Germany for Christams :) Since I have no money, I still require the step ladder to get in, however, I have fixed the scratch in the side, the passenger door (where a big freaking rock collected the side), and the spoiler which the paint had started to rub off...

Now getting ready to build my house, but hopefully will be able to make a Cruise soon, if someone can be bothered organising one *cou rupe seems boired gh*

[Tom]

saw this darkish hardtop at West Ryde maccas last night.. had all these greeny yellow stickers and stuff on it..

[ATOMIC]

I keep seeing a white BA with a large black "ASTINA" sticker down both sides of the car

[Ripper323]

I saw a green BA hatch in Mornington this morning. Unsure what sort of body kit was on it but it was pretty big, with a big wing on it. It also had a big Astina vinyl down the side, and smallish (14-15") chrome wheels. At least I think they were wheels, don't think they were hubcaps!

[Lunchbox#bg]

not all bright greens are kawasaki green, that is not kawasaki green!

unless the photo was of poor quality and didn't pic up the colour right, then I'll stand corrected.

[DavoAust]

kawasaki green is more.. well green, not fluro.

thats 'wtf green'. well at least people wouldn't mistake your car for anyone else's.

[RedLineResident]

To put it politely, that car is a tad loud.

couldnt exactly find a specific thread to intro myself so i thought this might do.
I have just aquired a 1996 BA V6 Hatch in the lovely noble green, stock at the moment (except my own head unit) and just browsing around to see what i shall do with it.
The parents have just gotten a 2006 3 SP23, black with all leather interior, very noice, how ever the BA has a bit more grunt, so i'm happy lol.
So yeah thats me... i'm up around the bribie island area so i'll keep an eye out for any of you local north brissy guys....
Rob.

[Dogo]

The v6 astina is a great car.

What kind of things are you interested in doing ? Power / handling / look & Style / stereo

Browse around the site and the readers rides in the menu at the top of the page. I'm sure you'll find some useful information and inspiration for your own car

[Daspiffy84]
