is there a reason you dont have a valid license?

you should be able to take out a personal loan, even if your underaged, as long as you have a guardian (someone over 18 in other words) to cover for you

i was gonna do such a thing with the commonwealth, then my parents decided to do the loan for me :whistling:

no interest ftw

and for the record, if i had the money, id go a NA S15 over my car...cheaper on fuel, and alot sexier imo

Just to add my two cents...

I was in the same situation a few months ago when buying my first car.... had a look at plenty of r33's and a few r34's.

In the end i went with an r34 for its amazing looks. Make sure you've had a drive of both so you know how they both feel.

Thats probably what will sway you in either direction... unless your all about asthetics like myself in which case how could you say no to an r34 :whistling:

Take your time with the decision and dont get one over the other purely because of what other people think...

the last thing you want is to see the model you didnt buy driving along next to you and regret your purchase..

As I always said when I got my first R34 (steps back into the time machine to 2002)

I had the choice between a very nice R33 GTSt or an R34 25GT (no turbo!!!) I picked the R34 because it simply outclassed the R33, even the turbo couldn't sway me (stuck one on the R34 anyway)

But this was back when an Auto 25GT was $34K (ouch) and I don't regret the choice one bit...even when it was stolen and written off, I bought another R34 (GTt this time)

Did you tell NAB what you were buying?

i wouldnt say the r34 has less km's then the 33.

a mate just bought a 34 yeah its nice but my 33 has done 15, ooo less than his.

i like the interior more in a r33 its more comfy and real race type i believe the r34 even tho it is nice is to over the top.

my 2c but i say test drive both and see which one you feel more comfy in and enjoy more.

are you sure yours has really done that amount of km's cause i remember hearing and seeing that they wind back alot of r33's and with some ive seen they are wound back way to far to be believable.

      Dose's Sometimes DIY and Pay Someone Home & Boat Improvement Thread

      Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.

      In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.

      Front facing Intercooler

      By BuiltNotBought · Posted

      I’ve read the previous posts so just looking for latest information on how people have dealt with front facing plenum is it a defect etc or didn’t pass roadworthy or was it not noticed? Have a r34 and deciding if I should make a hole on the driver side or not.  I know some people have said blitz return flow but I might get rid of the stock intake down the line for a plenum so I rather set up for that now plus I already have a standard Intercooler. Car is mainly stock  Thanks.

      American owner: what scanner for JOBD port?

      Actually, if having and keeping the stock ECU is the plan, the correct answer is to put Nistune into the ECU and improve the situation, not just look at it.
