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.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
