O K !!! I found it hard to save 15k for my 180sx after workin since I was 15.5!!! Anyway...

I would get an R34 GTR, check all the import magazines for prices. Going cheaper than before, but still expensive.

An r34 will blow the clothes of any chick without even requiring a stereo!

Good luck finding one, lucky bastard :stupid:

70 grand in the bank and you want to go buy a very expensive first car) Sounds like fun but is also a stupid idea to spend that amount of cash on your first car. If you get a 34, do it up and insure it, youll pretty much have nothing left! Think where you'll be in 5-10 years, wicked car now, king amongst your mates, but nothing left later.

Your most likely to crash your first car. Be smart and buy something nice but more sensible like an s13 or cheap R33, learn to drive it, and use the rest to buy a house/unit or something thats longterm sensible. Then youll be set!

Not many 18 yr olds have an R34, but even less own realestate!

Yeah i would prob get a GTT i love the GTR but i would prob kill it. And i would have no money. But unless u are still gonna have tons of money rollin in dont get a GTR or anythin too expensive just get somethin to learn in. That way if yo have an accident you wont be as pissed off

bak on the subject of power to weight rule in victoria, to me(and most skyline p platers) i dont even consider it a factor in chosing wat car to buy, if they threaten to take my licence ill move interstate :(, less revenue raising and i can drive a ferrari enzo if i chose to(or can afford it) lol

Yeah buy an s13 or r32-33 and play with that and hope you dont kill yourself. Put the rest on a unit and rent it out, if u can save 70k then u can afford to keep paying it off to im assuming, and then keep expanding :(. 1 vital point CARS DEPRECIATE, realestate in general doesnt.

just my 2c an what id do, but i dont have that kinda $$ so no investment for me just an r32.

whuts wrong with a 70k car, if you can afford it then go for it..but if you only have 70k to your name, then buy something cheaper (R34 GTT) or even and R33 and keep the rest to insure / run the car and also to invest elsewhere..

when you purchase a car for 70k, it doesnt end there, rego, insurance, fuell bills, servicing and things breaking on you add up quite fast...

that said, i was given 50k by my parents when i entered high school which was invested on my behalf and now at 20 i have some nice change hanging around. at 18 i possesed an apartment and several acres of land in my name which will only increase in value.

having said that, i only buy 2nd hand cars with my own money as all it does is depreciate and the R33 is no exception. in abt a month or so, im going to sell the 'Line and open up 2 shops one of which is a cafe, im always on the lookout for investments and hope you think carefully before spending your 70k

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
