Its really wierd to see so many people buy a car based on what they think they will look good in, not because of the aspects of the car etc....good example is my friend...

He wants an r33 gtr bad, but hes small, and said it wont suit him cause big people generally look better in them, so his vote goes for a smaller r32 gtr, even though r33 was is favourite!...

is it me, or are other people like that aswell?.....i mean comon, ive seen small people in big cars...it doesnt really make any difference to be honmest, yeah they look small in the car, so what?, at least they get the car they want....

what are your thoughts???

That's crazy! The car is so much more than a fashion accessory.. get the car you want for so many other reasons, If you think you look good in it too, bonus! I would only consider not getting a car due to size if I "felt" too small/big for it, not because of how I think i look! People usually look at the car not at you. IMO

your friends ghey!! seriously who reconsiders the car of thier dreams cause they think they wont look good in it.

haha im sorry..but thats stupid

and just exactly how big does he think a 33 gtr is??? they are made in JAP and driven by Japanese, so unless hes a midget i dont see how he could actually think hes small for the car.

tell him to hit the gym and get big! if he is concerned

Is your friend a girl? Or gay? :laugh: Or perhaps just metro-sexual? Pink shirt with the colar up maybe? :)

These cars are made for the japanese, they are all much smaller than most of us!!...

Check out leewah weighing in at a hefty 50kg, driving a 600rwkw R33 GTR (well it used to be 600rwkw) :)

I AM DEEPLY OFFENDED BY ALL THE RACISM IN THIS THREAD.

I feel uncomfortable being in a community where people generalise that Japanese people are all small.

I DEMAND THAT EVERYONE ABOVE GETS A WARNING!!!!!

The rules apply to everyone on this forum right? :P

Tell him if he buys a GTR R33,

"He will be the one driving down the road with the Long (Straight 6) dong with 2 big balls (Twin Turbos) hanging off it". :P

Then he won't feel so small.

Generally speaking, if you think you look good in any car chances are everyone else thinks you look like a tool.

Still, I think we all like to take it personal when people check out our cars... :thumbsup:

It sounds like your mate needs to just let it go a bit though...who cares what others think really...if you drove a lambo they'd all be jealous regardless of how tall/short you were.

yeah.. i got a friend that bought a lancer for his first car.... hes a big hairy fella that had more hair on his body than his teacher in grade 7.

He liked the lancer for his first but everyone else though he suited a ute or something like that.

Not a japanese toy car.

Ah well, good to see him get what he wanted, not what others wanted/thought.

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By suko · Posted

      Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞

      I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat

      Starter motor replacment teeth count.

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
