There are 1GGTE example, but I think the 7MGTE is a better engine. I had a serious 7MGTE in a Cressida, few things to look out for, and they don't make as much power as a 2JZ... I like the old-school Soarer look.... manuals can be rare though.

Yeah, some people do the wrong thing, and give everyone a bad reputation. You go there, you're taking a risk.... unfortunately when people get caught they put the big stereotypical label on the whole group of owners.

I think you need to learn to swin before being thrown in the deep end. I am glad I did not have a powerful car when I was on my P's. By the end of it I was driving a V6 commodore which had enough power to get you into trouble/danger. I agree with Merli that you become more sensible over time, you've got to build up to these things. If you've just started driving, in my opinion, a Skyline, or any other relatively high powered vehicle, is not the car for you. Not only do you lack the experience in situations that you have not encountered, in many cases there is a fair bit of attitude in having something to prove. Tosh, true you could lose it in a Toyota Echo, but put the same person in a car with tripple the power output, a non linear power curve, mix this with the lack of experience in certain situations on our 'roads'* and you've got a dangerous ****tail. My opinion is based on nothing but my own experiences. It pissed me off no end having to wait for a decent car, but I've got no regrets about the way its worked out At least, in general, those who want to buy a performance vehicle know how to look after it, and do go to lengths to learn how to drive. I'd say most people out there travel on the roads to commute. I saw Australias worst driver. Those people are out there... yet nobody does anything about them :crazy: * (thats something else all together... not only is the licencing system inefficent, but we get to drive on fantastic quality roads..)

Hmm... My totals and facts: - 5 cars - 3 x 2L's - 5 x turbos - 26 cylinders - 11.6L capacity - Power approximately 1010kw - Average Capacity, 2.32L, avg power, 200kw flywheel per car, avg power/L 86.2kw/L.

The Departments policy on 15 years old vehicle will be changing on 1 October 2003 all vehicles to qualify under this scheme must be 15 years old by month to qualify for import. In regards to any other changes to this scheme this section will not be privy to any changes until they are announced to the general public as the would be classed as cabinet in confidence. Sorry I can not be of any more assistance. ------------------------------------------------- I just got this emailed to me from DOTARS. To those who have cars in Japan I hope you are prepared to wait a bit longer. PM me if you have a car waiting in Japan and was not aware of this rule.

You're not parked in a no-stopping zone are you Where do you work? At least if the cops are scoping it out, you shouldn't have too bad a chance of some idiot flogging it.....

Do enlighten me how you know exactly what all of the people will take for their car? Did you ring them all up and ask for their bottom line? My uncles cousins son bought a R33 GTR for $14K, so they must all be worth that !

Slip always feels the love You are dead right though, its his car and he can do what he wants... I'd just choose the easiest way

.... but that is such an easy concept to understand... brake and suspension upgrades so he can go faster... ... two turbos that are oversized, attempting to make a never seen (at least by me) setup on a RB20DET, hard enough to get the twins running without messing around with sequential setups... im sure someone more technical minded could expand, but I can't really see it being a viable exercise... The simple (and cheaper) option would be as suggested smaller twins or a bigger single!

If it says off highway use only, does that mean its not able to be registered?

I totally agree. Theres nothing they can do about it, their fault for running out onto the road but they don't know better. Sometimes theres nothing you can do but hit them. I've had a close call in a national park before with a Kangaroo.

friendly tip half a bottle of bourbon will not help your lap times Prank that avatar of yours is that you coming off turn 2?

I can't push it faster than 1.14 Ive done about 10-12 laps, perhaps I could lose a second off that but not much more! Someone faster upload a video of their run Edit: Yeah car is Penz GTR Edit: 1.13.986 sec I can't think of where i've gone wrong. Standard setup.

Hey Steve its dropping oil already CS_180: All 180sx were turbo I believe, except some of the later (late96, 97+) models.. RB20DET and SR20DET are similar strength/outputwise, you wouldn't replace one with another () Just consider that it will likely need as Gary said, brakes, diff, (maybe gearbox) and engineering!

As is this Commodore v Skyline argument. Btw: My sister was born in 1986 too

:bahaha: :uh-huh:

how much over pete which camera

Advan at Silverwater do it.... approx $10K

Yeah nice post Roy

Whatever it is, I wouldn't be turning it on and revving it anymore. Water pump sounds possible, if theres plenty of (non water) oil in the thing then that would supposedly rule out internals, perhaps its something on the belt.. get it checked out... damn thats a horrible sound Dosen't sound like piston slap to me, that will occur on idle

R32 GTSTT (Or Friend?): I find it amazing that you are able to predict the capacity of my engine. However, im afraid to disclose that you are incorrect, I don't have a 2L. rev210: I've got plenty of friends (even buying a Series 4 RX7 for the woman), with Rotors. This guy dosen't do much toward giving rotary drivers a good name.
