Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

mate, when i drove my skyline day in day out (have done for 7 years, 31 included), it tends to just feel like another car, you get used to it and how it handles, drives etc....becomes a bit repetitive and the novelty wears off, however now i got a corolla (which doesn't handle all that bad) day in day out, its cheap, reliable and i dont put km's on my 33 and you get used to the power, but the most important thing is, the one or two days out of the week i do drive the skyline, I appreciate it soooooooo much more. Every time i get in it i can justify all the money ive spent on it, makes me realise why i still have it! thats the best way i can put it.

i put 50 bux in the corolla a week, probably 40 bux in the skyline and yea rego for 2 cars is around 300 for 3 months but i dont have any kids, no mortgage and im on a good dollar so at this point in my life its what i do... :)

When I'm just driving to work, I might take the silver Stagea or my MV Agusta Brutale. When I'm taking the GF out or going for a cruise, I might take the black Stagea or the Suzuki TLR1000. When I'm cruising with the biker boys, I'll take the MV Agusta and the GF takes the Aprilia. Don't even ask what I pay in rego/insurance :woot:

      I refer you to this thread on PF, by someone who knows what he's doing. Paints a good picture of the humble AD09.

      I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.

      Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!

      I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
