current car: 1997 180sx type x

next car: another GTR, S2000 or perhaps a mazda FD3S

quick why?: i switched from a GTR to sil cause i like dorifto. but i miss the RB26 and 4wd grip sometimes. so may want to go to another BNR32 or BNR34

or perhaps a S2000 as i like the lightweight high reving engine.. good mix

then maybe a rotor..??

or a MX5...

i buy cars for fun rather than commuting

My last car was a 98 MX5. i'm currently in the market for somehing new, and am torn between an Evo 6 and R32 GTR.

Yesterday I was dead set on the GTR, today I saw an EVO and changed my mind, tomorrow it'll probably change again.

Decisions decisions!

I'm waiting till I get behind the wheel of both of them before I make any decisions, but what you guys think?

I'm awaiting a totally unbiased answer of course :)

R33 GTST to be replaced by 996 911 S. Probably a year or two away. That said the BMW 335i has caught my attention of late especially in it's performance during the Bathurst 24 hr.

My charade 1 ltr is to hopefully be replaced by a Renault Clio Sport.

I'll finally be happy with my garage (I hope).

Current Cars: Nissan 180SX ('92 model), Nissan Pulsar N15 Sedan.

Next Car: Well the 180sx is a long term keeper, so the Pulsar will go first. I think maybe a crewcab ute would be good. I need something that can carry four adults in relative comfort. Would be good to have a tow-car too, and something to carry spares around, so the ute would be ideal for me.

The next car that I upgrade will probably be my daily driver from a 1991 Peugeot 205 GTI to a boring 5 door VW Golf Mk V TD. I'll keep the R32 GTR for a while yet until an R34 GTR M-Spec Nur comes along or I can afford the new GTR.

  • 1 year later...

Current cars

08 Prado turbo diesel- Maybe Replace 09 [new shape] or keep and spend money on mods for gtr!

R34 Gtr- Keeping for 3 more years hopefully afford to modify more- replace late 2011 with R35

Thats if things go to plan and the economy doesnt get completely screwed!!! :thanks:

Edited by Duncan1

Fuel embargos not considered, I'd like to keep the R34 and then add...

i) a replacement R33 GTR for the one I sold 5 years ago and

ii) an R32 GTR (from Oz)

Yes, am a bit sentimental, but I figure that now I'm used to the confined space in the 4th Gen Prelude,

... I'll find the R32 quite spacious by comparison lolz.

Tez :thanks: ...the 3 GTRs will look nice together

    • They are, a good friend of mine bought one to replace his blow factory turbo, running a Toshi Tune reflash. Just use their supplied water/oil lines and you're good to go. At the time, they were like $900 delivered.
    • This is an option for 100% bolt on, the GCG high flow -  https://gcg.com.au/turbo-charger-upgrade-skyline-gtst-2iu-xtrgts-s1.html Also, I'm pretty sure hypergear does a high flow that is 100% bolt on, it just doesn't make as much power as their bigger high flows.  Even if you get a hypergear turbo that requires you to chance the intake piping, it is a really simple modification. It can be as simple as a piece of silicon hose and you pop a filter on the end. It doesn't have to be some crazy pie cut titanium work of art intake pipe.  If you have the ability to swap the turbo yourself, you would be able to sort the intake piping out. 
    • Just as a thought, if it's in neutral, thats your drive line disconnect, not the clutch. Clutch slip at the dyno with pedal fully out, is actually adding a second disconnect. So it's not a clutch issue if you're in neutral. Just a bit of friction dragging the output around while in the air.
    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD?
