Yeh I know it sucks balls so im gonna apply for exemption with as many reason as possible if failed ill swap car with Parents while I save money =) or I could be a daredevil and drive it on P's but itd suck to get caught

erm insurance? not sure they would be happy to cover a driver who is not legally to drive the vehicle.

all i can say is if you ever ran into me i would sue your ass into the ground to get as much money as possible, accidents dont just happen from been stupid, it can happen to any1, maybe you are driving normally and you just arnt concerntrating enough because of been tired or what not, shit happens, and when it does it will cost you big time,

my car has cost me a shitload of money, i hate how they put on my pay slip earnings to date,

plus if you get a daily, say spend 1-2g on a daily, save while your on your p's, then by time you can drive a skyline, say you have 40g saved up, you buy the car for 12g, then insurance will be another 2g, drive the car how it is (mostly stock) and then as you drive it more you can figure out which way you want to go with modifing it, lots of people go different ways, so best to decide from driving the car not just reading stuff all day long, then when you go to work on your car you have a get around car,

Lol , youve all destroyed my hopes (nah jokes) , I didnt explain the process of the car very well but I have another idea. The Non Turbo GTS is P-Plate legal and ive actually been thinking about buying one of those instead as I have heard they arnt too fast. Ide just have a Stock One, with a 5 stud conversion and a quiet exhaust and in the mean time save up for an RB25/30DET Hybrid which will be built as a seperate engine and will go in when I have my full licence. Ide drive the car through conservative power stages like havign the boost low and gradually upping it so I get used to the power. I think thats a better Idea cuz the car will be legal on P's and I will save alot more money. If you guys hadn't of flamed me I probly would lost alot of money doing it in my 'stages'. Thx to all cuz uve made me realise ill save money doing it way later down the track.

dont bother with a 5 stud conversion.... get some koya drifteks, they are drilled for 4 and 5 stud 114.3 ad when you build your 2530 you can use them as throw around rims if you decide you want to upgrade :happy:

Yeh I would have to eventually upgrade brakes and a 5stud conversion would minimise stress. I plan on Volk GT-C, Speedy Cheetahs or Starcorp Racing Fusions (19") with factory Type M bodykit and clear indicators. I dont really like ricer bodykits.

good choice! , now you can start with suspension/lsd/brakes/strip stuff outta the car to make it lighter :blink:

driver training will fix it

do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

+1 :happy:

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
