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

    • Hey everyone, I recently bought myself a 2001 Nissan Stegea M35, and I've had a few issues that I had to fix, my car would start intermittently and I had a bad rocker cover leak, after a couple days of looking I finally found a part number that interchanges with the OEM starter as the OEM starters at $1300 and I can't afford that, this starter was only $270 and I replaced the start and still had the same issues, I posted a video asking for help online and it went very well, some guy said it was probably a bad ignition switch so I took my dash apart and turns out my ignition switch was half screwed in and was loose, once it was tightened it fired right up, I found a local place called "Boost factory" and they sold me a part of OEM Nissan rocker covers, they were $600 which was a shocker but I couldn't find them anywhere else, so I installed them and fixed my oil leak as the old rocker cover was cracked and warped, I now need to replace my boost air inlet hoses as they have some cracks.
    • I am being real ocd and do not want to make amy mistakes so appreciate all help provided. I am overly cautious so asking for opinion even if i know the answer   few questions,   1.re tensioner, should spring be greased lightly?    2.tensioner has two washers , one pressure washer and other has recessed/ seat. I am going to put the recessed one facing tensioner where edges are cut out and pressure washer on top   3. my car has custom triger kit sold few years ago by guy who initially built the engine. I moved the crank gear and it moved in and out easy, only way to remove belt is to slide the crankshaft gear forward which I did. I have seen these being very tough to move , anything to do with my woodruff key?   it has a crank sensor shown in purple which I assume reads from the 12 teeth position mounted to the crankcase gear   4. timing belt doesn’t have arrow stating front or back just a arrow which I think is direction of rotation . Do you agree?   5.i figured out why my crankcase cover was worn as there was no washer installed over the crankcase cover before the harmonic balancer was put in place. It is missing, anyone knows the part number? It looks like this https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-crankshaft-timing-gear-rear-plate-washer-nissan-s13-ca18-a31-r32-rb20-r33-r34-c33-c34-c35-rb25?currency=USD   https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4535.382Zy2 https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4537.382dSz https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4534.382q4U  
    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
