haha true, there still fairly rare in brisbane. I think ive decided to go with the 34 if it happens. Cheers for the help.
-
suits me more?? can u elaborate on that. Isurance is about the same for both cars for me, so thats not a huge issue. R34's r still fairly rare aswell, i just dont know how long its gonna stay that way. cheers for the comments, keep em coming!

haha, see i feel the same way, ive driven an s15 and they feel awesome, a bit lighter then my current car, but i havent driven a 34 yet, im leaning slightly towards the 34 but still not totally sure and dont want to regret what i buy. MR R32: I'm unsure whether u were having a chop at me, but im not ashamed to say my grandparents will be hepling me out with this purchase if it happens. I worked really hard for the car i have now, and paid for most of the car stock form and pretty much all the mods. Im proud of what i have and dont take it for granted. Please dont judge me if u havent even met me.

i ran a 15.7 i think that was my best, i have full hks zaust, extractors, highflow panel filter, slightly home tuned safc ii, and that was my first time ever at the strip. extractors where definately the most worth while mod, they gave the car a fat mid range and made everyday driving awesome.
-
I will closer to the time if it is definately gonna happen. just trying to formulate some opinions at the moment. Do car yards let P platers take cars for test drives? S15200sxbroda: I searched but there is nothing really relative to this.
-
im not sure, sorry if it has i sould of searched first, ive been holidays for the last few weeks.
-
It has come to my attention that i may have the ability to purchase a new car at the end of the year, just wondering what everyones opinions are on the two and which they would go for and why, ive narrowed it down to these two as there is nothing else in the price range that really interests me, and have absolutely no clue which i would prefer i love both. Ne help? Cheers John

Lesson also learnt make sure kryz isnt spinning out behind u, lesson 2 i need more power. Great day guys sorry for holding everybody up, thanks to all those that organised it. Cheers John

yeah our cars are vct on the inlet side i am led to believe. The RB30 conversion is better then selling ur car and buying a modded gtst any day. Im gonna be taking the V8 route for something different, and my entire family are V8 nuts though my recent meet with the gutter has set me back a bit im hoping to have it done by christmas time. Ive already consulted an engineer and everything is fine to go ahead.

hey greg i now have that sound ur describing. i got the resonator and middle muffler taken out of the hks system and it now sounds so bad i dont want to drive it. i went back and got a new resonator which almost cured it but the car is too quiet now, i was thinking of selling the hks system but im now not gonna bother as the new engine is on the cards.

s'all good dude -
yes there is list as long as my arm of things, basically my mechanic said 10g's would get me there, im not building this engine myself nemore im going a different route but the rb30 with gtr head built right has some serious potential.

boostimports: stereo type me! but seriously, i worked damn hard for my car, and im not ashamed to say my parents helped me out but i still worked damn hard for it, and so did most of my friends, but yes there are those few that are lucky and did nothing for there cars, A good mate of mine has a brand new M3, but no one gives him shit for it, he's just lucky to ahve parents that are prepared to provide him with shit like that. -
haha, yeah im atached to mine to, i cant sell it. The Microtech LTX-12 engine management is about 1500 bucks, a turbo gearbox would be in order, though i never budgeted for that as i was gonna drive mine till i broke it with the new engine.
-
with 10k u can just do it, u take a vl turbo bottom end, balance the crank, shot peened rods, all new bearings, GTR head, Custom Plenum, Microtech MTX-12, Forged pistons, Custom Exaust manifold/s, and a pair or single turbo that matches ur budget, This is an awesome setup, even with high flow GTR turbos 350-400 hp at the crank is very achievable, if theres more money bigger turbo's and away u go!

hahahaha cheers for the replys guys, not in reverse slip got it right. Yeah the suspension is similar to the silvia but the skylines look much better built and stronger (haha to a point!) cars back on the road it was a 2 hour job, only had the replace the control arm and the car drives exactly the same as it used too, its booked in for a wheel this morning alignment but i dont really think it needs it. PVA_GLUE: Drift a WHALE!!!!??? NOT EVEN, we have some awesome footage!!!! boostimports: I go to brisbane grammar -
Congrats MUZ! Am i just insanely luckly? i do some pretty stupid shit in my car not all the time but often enough. I have been pulled over once in 8 months and that was for something really really stupid and i was basically a sitting duck. But i never get harassed??

Hey all, Well last night i got my video camera back from a mate so me and my best friend george decided to go to some private roads (those ones i showed u slip). And get a bit of footage. We tryed a few different places and gained some great footage. Final drift of the night and im about to pull over, but decided to try this one corner in revers thinkin it would be the same. Well to cut a long story short it was OVERSTEER, DRIFT, OVERCORRECT, GUTTER, FRAGMENTS OF MY FRONT LEFT MAG IN MY FACE. I hopped out of the car histerical! Kicking it screaming yelling and what not then calmed down and tryed to think of story to tell dad. Then i thought **** it ill just leave it at home and go to a mates house so i did. I didnt get a chance to check the car out as i have school today and lighting was poor. My question is: Is the front suspension setup similar to that of the S13? I ordered a new lower control arm and radius rod which should be waiting for me this afternoon, and ill try know it over tonight providing nothing else is broken. I only ordered these parts as i could see the control arm was bent and my mate did the same thing a month ago in his S13, is there a possibilty there are more suspension components that i am yet to see? And if neone has done a similar thing, are there any other things i should check or pay particular attention too?? Cheers John

i say u need to bleed it more, the r33's have a self adjusting clutch, not sure exactly how it works.
