seriously

dont go for dr30 if u want first car - unless ur a complete r30 nut

very expensive car to run/mantain

go the vl - no, actually go r31 - hey at leasts its still a skyline

(and a rb20 engine swap is not that much comparive to a r32/3/4)

ohh yeah jasons r31 is off its nut alright - pumping out 187.6rwkw with blacktop rb20 - plus its one of the best r31's i no running around

if u want a sicker r31 check out emancipators/cookie monsters /bretts r31 - 208.8rwkw with rb30 still

And your comparing apples with oranges there, get some pics of some hot VLs if u wanna compare.

Guys I had a Vl and it was just bearble...

Dove it for 5 years though uni and until 3 months ago then

It cracked it's head

I though... First car needs to be cheap to run

Easy to insure NO! 2k first year 1.6k the next

When your at uni 2k is a lot of money!

I aslo ran it on Premiume fuel- that was a waste of money!

Sat in a R31 the other day and I now know what i was missing for thoses 5 years: quality, heaps of comnfort and no bogan!

R31 offer heaps more and won't crack their heads!

Cheeper to insure than a VL and have excellent sleeper potential

GO the R31

PS: Now I have GTR!

--- Do a search this has been covered a bit

Have to disagree champ, the DR30 is NOT an expensive car to run/maintain...I can get anywhere from 450kms-550kms outta a 40 litre tank with mine, cheaper rego as well only being a 4 cylinder yada yada...only down side is if you stack it or something like that, parts are harder/more expensive to come buy then R31 stuff, but if you get a 2 door R31 i bet its just as hard to find stuff for them as well.....All depends on what you want outta a car really....DR30 is more of a lighter car and the R31 is more of a cruise car...my thoughts anyways...

Just to clear all this up, Boosted posted this for his bogan-spec 'DROP 2ND DO A BURNOOOOUUUTTTT' friend.. Who had decided to go for a VL ( Surprised ? I ain't. ) .. Boosted also meant an R31, not a DR30 cause he doesn't know the frikkin difference.

Oh and he was too Lazy to tell people he meant R31, but instead - say he won't buy a Barina..

So yah.. And _8005TED_, stop tugging yourself. You know I am teh loyal 4dr <3.. Thats why I'm buying one. :)

I don't get it ? You posted crappest looking VLs you could find too ? Oh no wait, they all look crap.

Thats a sign of pure jealously :teehee:

Also with those R31 pics, why are they all Jap spec ones? arent the Aussie ones good enough?

Atleast I posted up cars that are from Australia.

      Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.

      From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢

      Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.
