He says he should have got an SS commodore. But when the gen3's where first released there were a few owners who put similar stickers on their cars, as they had similar problems. I think the first batch of gen3s consumed a bit of oil when thrashed, and obviously if the oil wasn't topped up the engines seized.

That was when the gen3 was first brought in, and the xr6 turbos are still new so problems with a few are to be expected I suppose.

Why is he a cockhead? cos he got a shitty car and you don't believe him? you sir are a knob jockey PHATR32. My dad has a brand new calais that cost him over 50,000 dollars and it was a lemon, things were constantly going wrong with it. So we got rid of it. Chances are the guy was leasing the car so it wasn't a problem for him to get rid of it, cos at the end of his lease the car is taking from him and sold off. Just like my dads car was.

Think before your write something moron.

And having seen 4 examples of a car in which thousands of them are produced anually makes you an expert on there reliabilty?

I thought not.

Actually i prefer my euro's and japanese cars, but at the moment i'd choose a BF over a VZ, but when the new VE comes out this year that may be changed.

Just igronant ramblings like that are stupid and annoying.

That still dosent put me off buying one later this year...

my mates dad has a GT-P with well over 320kw.. chip, exhaust, intake, dropped on its balls, black rims etc etc etc and not one problem

there will always be a couple of duds out of the bunch but it all depends how you treat the car in general..

haha he prob got a EX motor test car or something that had been thrashed hard :D

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
