A better excuse would have been

"I just watched Tokyo Drift and thought police cars where factory tuned to 180kph, so if your doing more than that the cops don't even bother chasing you"

What a the sphincter of the universe

What's an 18yr old doing with a 32gtr? Daddy's boy?

Hey cuz.

pff like it's hard to own a 32 gtr when your 18. There an 18 year old car. If his parents opened a savings account when he was born he'd have no problem having enough money. Heck if he started working at 15 part time he could easily afford one by the time he's 18. There a dime a dozen.

Suppose. They are pretty affordable these days.

whaaat people like that give us bad names plus what sort of an idiot weaves through traffic like that :laugh: , i reckon he played the ps2 a bit much

x3 not that i'm saying video games are to blame (everyone needs to be responsible for their own actions), but no one can deny that playing need for speed most wanted for a few hours doesn't make u want to fang it on the road. his girlfriend should have :rofl: 'd some sense into him.

no, fastest i've been is 170km/h in a subaru impreza lx when i was 17, and that was scary enough. and that was bloody stupid. i guess when ur that age u think ur bulletproof. i dont condone ridiculous speeds on commercial roads, every1 shud save it for the track

He should get his car back because he paid for it. BUT the question is has he learned from it, lets face it he's a teen he still thinks life is a playstation game. Once he gets his car back he should be taken to an advanced driving course within 1 month and given a very graphic video of crash victims. Sadly it just isn't going to happen like that. I hope he learns a lesson without hurting someone else.

That's one of the stupidest things I've ever read, and I've been on ns.com.

Should Martin Bryant get his rifle back if he ever gets his arse out of jail, just because he paid for it? Yeah a rifle kills but hit someone at 200km/hr and, unless they're in a truck, they're not likely to walk away from it either.

If you prove yourself untrustworthy with something, then maybe you should have your toys taken away from you. Consider it a "fine" if you have to, but I've got no problems with people going that stupidly fast through traffic having their cars confiscated with no "recompense".

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
