undercoverbrother 0 Posted August 13, 2009 I just googled about Zarnock, and it's confirmed that the 4th edition of his Variations Ultimate Guide book will be released sometime April next year. I guess i'll wait for this one since the 3rd one only cover up to 2005 models. It's gonna be 500 pages! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

netmatrix 0 Posted August 13, 2009 Most of the cars featured there are not easily available here. The guides and books are really salivating stuffs. Last time i always hang out at Borders going though these books. Nowdays they don't have it anymore. And Kino likes to "condomize" their books just like MPH.

That's why like many other playaz here, it's time for you to go international too! There's no shortcut here, either you got thick wallet, or have a good network with oversea boardies to help out. (and greens could help to certain extent too, when it comes to trades) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
