See at least when i was going like 200-300 ks a day when i first got mine (once again... not going anywhere in particular) petrol was around 93c for Optimax etc :action-smiley-069: so it wasnt too bad

Damn that must have been in the days!.. Not so cheap anymore :P

Personally dont mind paying up to $1.00/L for petrol, but anything more is just getting to be a rip off.

Thanks guys :D

I'm already feeling the money thing. Gotta fill up again (50litres in 3 days :O) but i had to drive around to show my mates + uni etc. :) Its worth it anyway! Plus i bought the pod filter and some new speakers for it. Turbo timer next i think.

I keep trying to make eye contact with other skyline drivers to give a thumbs up etc. but no success yet :) I'm sure if it was one of you guys you'd return it!

Going from a lancer to a 32gtst makes it feel like a ferrari!!!

Makes me want a GTR even more. I took a girl for a drive today and she described it as faster than a roller coaster :yes:

powerade still costs more than petrol..

no its not... i bought a 24 slab of it the other day $9... theyre 310m cans... which means that it works out at 37ish cents which means per litre its around $1 and seeing as petrol is 1.28, its more economical to bike to work each day and drink powerade to refresh and replace your electrolites then drive.

think about it

Thats good to hear mate... just dont go driving it like it is a ferrari... dunno if uve noticed but most ferrari drivers cant actually drive. Plus the last thing we need is more hoon stories ;)

Hey mate,

Congrats on the car, I got my first car (R32 GTS) about a year ago now, probably the best decision i have ever made, take care of it and you can't go wrong ;)....however I'm a tad jealous of your turbo ha ha, i got mine NA cauz i was worried about the new turbo laws coming out, turns out i could have got one anyway but ahh well.....32-GTR is only a year away lol :sorcerer:

If your thinking about tinkering with your stereo check out my DIY thread on installing a sub and amp,

Have fun mate,

Best regards,

Sean

never seen powerade in a can.....

Dont know where you get your powerade..

Powerade/gatorade is usually like $1.50-$2.50 for 600-700ml (whatever size the bottle is)....

don't know where you get your petrol....

read in a wheels magazine, that petrol is at its cheapest ever when compared to several years ago.

The price of water, electricity, food etc has increased by a much larger percentage than petrol and is more expensive.

Article in December 2006 Wheels magazine :wave:

Congrats on your purchase?

Any pics yet?

What uni do you go to?

congrats man

i remember when i first got my 32

i posted up here in excitement and spent about 500 bucks on fuel that weekend

    • A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.
    • Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.
    • Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.
    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that
