This is like the 3rd thread this kid has posted which happens to be basically the same questions we have all answered before..

yer LOL soz mate im just heaps like exited bout getting my first car...yer a non turbo it be for my p'z tho, and sorry to annoy u diff

Buy it you have a stable source of income.

Obviously a non-turbo skyline will be cheap.. So it shouldnt cost you much at all.

Damn straight it was worth buying a skyline!!! Been nearly 3 years now and never looked back!!

Insurance - Well since its non - turbo it should be a lot cheaper!! We can not answe this question for you as there are many factors involved. Best to ring insurance company and get a quote..

Enjoy

Sorry hijaked this topic should i start a new one?

Dont buy it, If your on your p's buy a shitbox.

Save for a GTR and piss off the other kids when you buy a r34 first day your full licence.

Non turbo wont be as fun as a turbo or gtr.

I Rekon it wud be mad having a GTR, even tho rollling up on my first day of year 12 in An R32 Would be just as good to see the other kids looking at me continuesly LOL tht wud be Good

Your first mistake is a R32... Unless its off someone whos spent alot of time on it then id go a r33 or r34 not much between them.

R32's often have problems and the worst thing for a p plated is problems.

haha ask anyone with a "loved" r32 .. Your going to need more money than the cost of the car, btw they are going up in price as you cant import all of them any more.

Buy a r34 auto non turbo 4 door .. $10,000 thats 3g more than a turbo r32.. enjoy the worry free drive and dont crash (which you will prob do, touch wood but id say youd have a knock or two)

a non turbo r32 and r33 are in the shitbox range. you can pick one up for around $5,000 and for what they are they do get around better than a corolla, integra etc.

the real problem is when you actually consider turbo'ing your n/a skyline after you get off your p's.

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
