All in all I like NA as there is no lag and thats one thing that used to annoy me with a turbo. NA motor + Turbo would be the ultimate as it appears you have done. Good luck with it!

typevu Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 NA car as first car is the way to go... I still got my limbs attached and no at-fault history under my belt.

Bo0oSt Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 definitely a good idea to go na first. My first car was a toyota celica(gay i know but hey it was my training wheels), Then a mx6(bit more power still gay), followed by a R32 GTST(lots of fun and gave me a feel but wasnt the most responsive to mods) and now a series 2 R33(still alot of fun, doesnt handle as well as the 32 but is more powerful and responsive to mods). If you're not in the position to afford a turbo or haven't had much experience or just simply like the way na's drive, i strongly suggest buying a na.

MissR34 Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 in my opinion there is less things that can go wrong!! hhehehehe! no replacing of expensive turbos when they decided to go!!!! and better fuel consumption too, unless you drive hard, which i tend to do sometimes, but my girl can handle it pretty well.

stormlcc Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 the sound of NA straight six is just amazing, I'm driving a turbo RB20 'cause we seldom come across any kind of NA version of the RB engine here, if they import it in, it sure cost 2 or 3 times more than the turbo one Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/166447-why-a-naturally-aspirated-skyline/page/2/#findComment-3114865 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NISZILA Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 (edited) Heh heh, does aye. Don't want to do any more mods in case the noise goes away lolStrangely, my GTS rallycar with exactly the same mods doesn't make that sound. I got an NA because it was my first sports car with a bit more power. My first two cars were just little run about types that were really cheap to get me through uni. Now that I have more money I wanted a nice car. I got the NA cause I didn't want a car that was more than I could handle. I want to do a turbo conversion later, but I'm very happy with my NA. Its reliable and cheap to run, and I feel I've become a better driver with it. Rather increase in stages rather than go for the whole hog and then lose it. You might think NA's are slow. Yea, maybe compared stock for stock with a GTSt, but they are not that slow. Just a few mods can get you up to similar power figures to the GTSt's with no lag Edited May 14, 2007 by R33-GTS Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/166447-why-a-naturally-aspirated-skyline/page/2/#findComment-3115948 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DivHunter Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 No car is hassle free. You have no turbo lag because you don't have a turbo, just sayin'. Turbo 33s are cheap. Cops don't care as much if they can tell the difference. If you are worried your right foot is going to send you off the road in any car please don't drive near me and see an exorcist about your possesed foot. How the engine gets it's air doesn't have any effect on how good a driver you are. When someone tells you how much of an awesome driver they because they drive an excel what do you think of them? I know a guy who had a 600cc buzzbox, is he a good driver because his car was piss weak? No. If it's not blown, it sucks Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/166447-why-a-naturally-aspirated-skyline/page/2/#findComment-3118542 Share on other sites More sharing options...
