stereotypes come about due to the masses of the targeted group being in such a manner as to leave a lasting impression on the public/peers.

Hence p platers are hoons/bad drivers, due to most being inexperianced in shoddy cars and trying to drive beyond their abilities.

old people are percieved as being doddering old fools who drive slow complain about everything and are mortal enemies of the youth. Mainly because the majority or atleast the most vocal do these above things.

same with p platers and skylines, they rice them up, they cant afford a gt-r but a badge/front bar is a fraction of the cost etc. Hence the stereotype :)

Fark...notin more i hate den people tryin to make a car into something it isnt. A GTR badge on a GTS-T is already bad enough, but i really really cannot stand lancers tryin to be EvO's. LIke seriously man!! Lancers are a piece of sh*t....farkkk.......seriously man...the body kit for a GTR is nice..but a badge? mannn wannabe cars like the evo etc....jus get laughed at by people who know something about cars.

i would seriously be embarassed driving around in a fake Evo wannabe or a GT-R wannabe. I would rather be drivin around in a nice stock GTS-T skyline or a Stock lancer. At least im not tryin to be somethin im not. =)

If everyone is comfortable with thrwoing opinions around, and as this thread is prefixed by a poll, here's mine.

I reckon gts-t's *can* look great with a gtr kit. I have seen some that are a bit on the cheap side but what you must remember is that it is up to each individual's personal taste - not yours.

I have to tell the orignator of this thread that there are about 6 different reasons to flame/spam/sign-u-up-2-pr0n-lists in your first post. You appear to be close minded, un-intelligent and arrogant beyond your probable 16 years. I'll leave it there because I could tear your post apart but my lunch just arrived...

To everyone else that has posted, thanks for your valuable (mostly) opinions and contribtions. That's what makes this forum so great. To all the people that are down on others for the sake of it, get a chainsaw up your collectives!

Adrian

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
