You will love the AUDI - they're tops cars :whistling:

Although they're a bit of a "wifes" car - good for her to do the shopping and get the kids from school then dad can give it a bit of punishment on the weekend

Was it like this one?

I tell ya what the GAYEST part of this whole thing is....

Starting the thread with...

the time has come!

FFS! can someone be a little bit more original :blink:

Oh.. and AUDI sucks.

Induction Twin Turbo intercooled

Power 195kW @ 5800rpm

Torque 400Nm @ 1850rpm-3600rpm

Acceleration 0-100Km/h 5.7 secs

Kerb Weight 1615kg

Chip it and get an extra 60 or so kw and alot more torque, then exhaust and intake and im flying!

Sorry mars! ill change it to

Id rather have a big debt and a newer car than an old skyline when i can afford to pay off a new car!??

buy a 180 ya fag

...and be like everyone else? :P

It's sad letting a car go, my current runabout goes on the market as soon as the Stagea lands from Japland.

As much as it has cost to keep it on the road and caused me a lot of problems i'm going to miss it. :google:

Best of luck with the Audi! :nyaanyaa:

servicing isnt too bad actually... its the parts that are a tad more expensive... but still not as bad as getting them overnight delivered from jaapaaaan

im over my imports at the moment, its twin turbo sleeper time!

A mate of mine who used to be on these forums went from a R33 gts-t to a 2.7l tt S4. Said the same stuff as you. Cat back exhaust set him back 5k and took 6 months to manufacture and send from the US. Getting someone local to chip it was a rort they wanted $1600 to load some software.

Things may have changed since then but i doubt its cheap yet.

Dont listen to them Ed! you will love the S4, i used to have a B6 1.8T Quattro work car and that was a very nice drive. Just remember with euro's you go through more brake discs compared to a jap car (usually every 2-3 sets of pads)

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
