i got to drive to school for half the year when i got my car. i bunged up old lh torana. at least it was a 3litre, had *some* guts. looked like a real heap though. one of the first few days i drove it in, this other girl driving her mum excel or something says 'hey shaun is that even road worthy?' and i was like of cos! ya stupid idiot..., that last part was only thought though. i didnt even really know her and shes commenting on MY car? damn her. damn her i say.

Doesn't apply to That's just plain f*****g stupid. You can learn to drive in one, do the test in one, but then you wouldn't be allowed to drive it home!!!!

In canberra a few of the major learner driver companies have turbocharged cars for the learners (which i find pretty stupid really). So i guess the exemption is for that reason, or if your learning to drive on your L's in your dads skyline etc.

you could image the amount of kids that would rather learn in a turbo whatever then a ford festiva (as i did! :D) when it comes to picking driving schools.. even a turbo astra or something (can think of other smaller cars with turbos) would be cooler to a student then an excel..

Yeah actually that would be the case for a lotta kids hey.

I chose my driving school from others comments. So i chose the most easy going driving instructor of them all so i could get my licence in as little lessons as possible. It paid off, i got it in the minimum amount of lessons, while my mates driving the WRX's spent a good $150 extra to get their licences :)

haha my first car was a 1981 civic....1.3L....it had maby 50hp...and about 49 of em were dead...lol....talk about crap...farkn trucks were taking off from the lights faster than me...lucky my freinds didnt like me cos of my car...

i used to drive my r33 to skool everyone loved it, but there was also a 2 wrx's and a modifed 300zx tt, some nice cars at my school but, my mate had a new ss ute and got it impounded for doing a burnout outside a shopping center lol.

LOL i remeber when i was a youngin in year7 or 8 so 13 or so, i saw a RX7 smoke up the whole street, the busses had to wait 3 or so mins for the smoke to clear. So i contiuned walking to the train station, and abotu 5 mins later it went screeming past with the front gard onfire and a paddy wagon chaseing it. LOL

I guess it was stolen, but still when i saw that ive always said last day year 12, and if i don't pop a stock tired i'll be dissapointed :(

One of my mates has a HQ i think Holden ute, with apparently 350bhp, so i think he'll out do mine LOL but still the more the merrier LOL

could be a good idea to give L plates a go in a turbo car, hopefully it will scare the shit out of them and theyll drive slower because they know how dangerous it is and they know that whatever piece of shiz they drive its not worth speeding coz its not a fast car...... maybe

I'm glad to have driven my car on my L's... If I had gotten it on my P's I would probably have crashed it pretty badly

My first car i built on my l's with my old man we put a worked 5l fuel injected v8 into a vc commodore. The day i got my p's i was the happiest guy alive i could finally drive my v8 out the driveway and see how it went. On top of the world i was.

Thats how i felt, this car was my first car, ive had my licence for about 10months and this was the first car ive bought, i know that feeling, and still very much feeling it today =) I just can't wait for a skyline cruse one day.

so far ive driven a few turbo cars, 3 to be exact. 2 R33's, and a forester.

was the best damn feeling in the world doing laps of a carpark in R33 number one.

and then again hearing the boxer growl from the scooby

and my god, dropping it into second gear in a 230kw R33, and planting it pretty much has garunteed i will be getting a turbo car.

didn't scare me at all, but it did make me realise how much trouble a turbo car could put you in if you dont respect the boost. "second gear, wet round about and come on boost, bye bye road, hello tree"

my first car was my 33 and i drove it to school every day....i went to a private school but paid for my car myself...anyway there was a lot of guy getting given BMW's and stuff like taht one kid got given a 330Ci for his first car...anyway they thought they were top sh1t and would always go cruising round near nepean highway after school on fridays one of them told me my car was jap shit so i said ok let go nepean i showed them why they make skylines with such nice back on them... was quite funny...by the end of the year the car had all the respect it needed

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
