hahaha

honestly why sell an R33 turbo to get a NA lancer if you're a performance car enthusiast?? listen to us all on SAU.. we all deal with the cops who hate modified cars. its something you deal with for the love of driving...

so are you a skyline or car enthusiast?

did you even have a choice in the matter or did you dad sell the R33 and buy this for you?

the R33 wasn't yours was it?

God you been on my back all the time havent you, once u reach my old cars stage of mods than you can talk

I was driving around in a manual Lancer in Syd, and just gave back a hire Getz.. Any manual 4cyl is loads of fun on the street. You can rev them hard and your not doing anything dangerous...good fun. An auto means its simply going to be a nice quiet car to A to B in....which means you will be retired whilst im scooping up dog shit from driveways because cars have left me broke :)

Lol, i always use the trip tronic, but yeah the auto goes with the comfort.

:) auto n/a lancer :O

if you really wanted a lancer, you should have got a evo6 etc

I wanted a brand new car.

I hear you going to a cheaper to run car but I would at least have gone for a manual. Not having a gear stick was what I hated most about a non powerful car.

Nice looking car anyway. :)

Thanks man, but yeah as i said b4 just bout the comfort :D

piccies no workie :(

I think they do :)

your move makes a lot of economic and practical sense. after a few more years of thrashing around in my skyline i plan to get a similar car

Thank you!!! Someone understands!!!! :sorcerer:

welcome to MIVEC yo...I've had it for a few years in 6A12 engine....new rims man at least..and some neons :)

Yeah rims are a must! lol. But i will have to pass on the Neons lol

lol kriz... sif not get a sik arse VL on gas and put VZ interior in it if u wanted new...

:)

interesting choice... probably would have opted for an S15 at that price range and being pretty newish.

So whats going to happen once ur off your Ps? Apparently those Hyundais are getting pretty "sporty"

:)

From what I remember Kris is a uni student with no job... keeping a Skyline with no job is um dumb.

Nice car man, enjoy!

well obvious it isnt much of an issue cause i dont know many people without jobs that can keep any car... let alone buy a brand new one.

God you been on my back all the time havent you, once u reach my old cars stage of mods than you can talk

RB20 powah will never make as much as the 33 did lol

From what I remember Kris is a uni student with no job... keeping a Skyline with no job is um dumb.

:P a fine example of one of sau's finest with no idea.

your move makes a lot of economic and practical sense. after a few more years of thrashing around in my skyline i plan to get a similar car

Yeah,... what he said, like when I'm 58 :(

its very sensible but aren't you afraid your going to get bored pretty quickly and just end up back in something quick?

...I am bored just by the thought of it...

but then again I am the king of spending money on unnecessary frivolity so my opinion is pretty worthless as far as financial decisions are concerned!

    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
    • the top black section is bonded to the silver section with some form of rubber. I assume to isolated NVH from the box
