hey guys, after stupidly speeding, and geting cought, i coped 6 months, i get my Ps back this week, i was contemplating geting a non turbo r34 skyline (sue to p plater restrictions) but now have decided to go for the cheaper, but better all rounder (initial cost, insurance, performance, fuel economy) 5speed SSS n15 pulsar.. do u guys think this is a better choice? i mean i would totally prefer a skyline, but non turbo skyline? dunno doesnt appeal to me that much and after asking a few ppl on this forum, seems to be the same advice from everyone, DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON A NON TURBO R34.. so ye ive taken this advice.. what are your views on the n15 SSS?

now i just wanted to aska another quick question.. my license is currently restricted to automatic.. if i drove the 5speed SSS and happend to get cought what is the penalty? and after the suspension do i get my 4 points back?.. i will be going to getr my manual license soon, its just that im extreamly busy and just need to delay geting them for about 4 weeks.. im sure i could go undetected for 4 weeks... but ye anyhelp would be greatly appriciated guys ,

my advise mate stick to the guide lines of your licence or you will end up in a world of trouble. If you arnt licenced to drive a vehicle then you would most likely void your insurance and thats not worth the risk.

Be on your best behaviour you admit what you did was stupid so dont make another silly decision potentially throwing you back in the same shitty situation.

oooh for fu ks sake seriously what is evryones problem.. i need a fu king car and im gonna get one, im sick of people saying save your money and wait three years.. would you wait three years?????????????? sorry to blow up, but im sick of it, i went from thinking i was gonna buy a 20 000grand non turbo skyline, to saving 10gs and buying a 10grand pulsar

when you get your license back - you will have no points at all for the remainder of being on your p's. so 1 slip up and your off for another 3 months . you get 6 points when u reach your black license , where most people will have 12 . ... better play it safe .

as for buying a car - why ask other's opinions , at the end of the day its your money and your the one who is going to have to live with what you buy . so buy what makes you happy mate.

I see why you lost your license.

I see why you lost your license.

Amen..

I dont think they meant dont get a car at all.. I think what was meant was get the cheaper option and save that extra money you are saving by getting a pulsar..

Pretty simple?

easy noobs, at the end of the day it's his life, his car..

All he asked was for some advice (dis-advantages/advantages) so take it easy

In my opinion mate, the SSS is just as fast as a r34 n/a. It's great on fuel, and around the same to maintaine.. if it makes you happy buy the sss and save 10g's for a mad car later on... Do what makes you happy because it's your car.

Why ask for peoples opinion if your just gunna blow up?

Get whatever you want, no-one really cares what you get.

i get the shits cos everytime i ask peopel opinions on a car they give me the same bullsh it save your money get sumthing cheaper.. SSS is cheap enough.. i bet of i said i wana get a 500 dollar vl commodore hunk of sh it again, people would say save your money and buy something cheaper for now..it just gets on my nerves,

I wouldn't call buying an NA R34 a waste of money...at the end of the day its what you can afford and what you like. To me buying a SSS pulsar would be an even bigger waste of money...but thts just my opinion.

hey dave.... personally id much rather the N/A 34 ... a) its a much nicer car.... 2) it says skyline on the back .... 3) i would neva b seen in ne thing other than a rwd car.... 4) your going to have it for 3 years...

5)... which one would pull the chicks? LOL

na but thats my 2 cents... i have had my license taken off me for 1 years... coming up on 1 year now i am on green ps.. just got another 33... i was going to be restricted to the conditions but got out of it as i owned a prohibited vehicle before the laws were introduced...

get mine back febuary....

only disadvantages of driving a 34 over a SSS after just getting your license back:

COPS dont look at if the gt badge is blue or red.... (turbo or non turbo for noobs out there lol)

COPS look at the words skyline and then their next reaction is to flick the pretty lights switch and if theyre feeling randy theyl even throw in some funny noises.

lol

also drivin a rwd car i would b tempted to spin the wheels every now and again specially in the wet...

fwd car i wouldnt thrash personally cos i went through 3 cv joints in my last car and it costed me alot lmao...

thats my 2 cents...

thanks steve for being one of the only people to give me a decent answer..cheers mate

well i ahvent bought anything yet so i take everyones opinion into account, just hate it when ppl tell me to save my money for 3 years.. its not possible for me to work, go outy and got to uni with no car, public transport just doesnt always cut it..and i love cars so id like somthing nice.. but ye sorry to ppl i blew up at before

yeh man being restricted to non turbo really killed me like i was wrongly accused for racing someone.. couldnt do crap about it with a speeding record / burnout.... had my 33 impounded.... lost license for 1year for no reason... wasnt even speeding and he called it racing...bad coppa..

luckily i am not going to be restricted anymore...

3 years is a long time..

if i was restricted...id simply buy an r32 or something and get an m3 engine put in ...lol :P plenty of power...

i drive said sh*tbox and its really not that bad, although its probly not what you want. N15 seems reasonable, how about a V8 soarer, they're legal as far as i know for P platers, have all the luxuries you want. its a luxury car, so its less tempting to speed in it, its just a cruiser.

not legal man.... check the rta site.... download the restricted list...

theyre a smooth cruising car... but have similar stats of a truck.... best luxury for money though.

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
