ummm if you just finished high school that means you have P Plates right?

P plates on a GTR

GTR with P Plates

a bayside blue GTR with P Plates being driven by a noob

can you see where this is going???

firstly cops will rape your ass like theres no tomorrow due to the power to weight thing and on p plates you will stand out like do ballz

your still a kid and would have bought GTR as a first car... you will have to give up more then your lunch money and allowance to keep that thing running

but if you can afford to buy it then i guess you can afford to keep it running...maybe

but for a first car a GTR is not the best car to get if you know nothing about cars

dont buy it!

but an NA thats the reason i was put of buying an R32 GTR for my P's!

a nice neat NA import will have to do till your off ur P's

Dude, to drive a car like that properly and not f*ck it up takes a bit or experience behind the wheel of another car.

Take everyone else's advice and buy a corolla or something to get some practice in first.

if you dont listen to any of us and buy one could you please at least do a driving course or something like that. cause this thing is a weapon.

my first car was a old ford eb. then moved to a non turbo subaru rx, then to a non turbo r34, and now a turbo r34 and it can still be a handful if you dont treat it properly. im amazed at how fast a turbo car is when i first got it. but with a little bit more experience and driving those other cars first i have more respect and understanding at how to drive it a bit better. (im no expert driver at all). im just a bit more mature and love my car and dont want to hurt it.

ive had a friend buy turbo cars as there first car even someone i know with a honda s 2000. the guy with the honda died. and my friend in a s15 crashed it badly into a university and severly breaking the passengers leg, he only had the car for about a month.

well thats my rant you probably wont even read or care anyway but ive taken 2 weeks off work and im really bored lol.

Just to add to the twenty reasons not to buy an R34 GTR that's already been mentioned in the thread, to say it more directly, you lack the self-control, even if you can control yourself behind the wheel when you first get it:

* You'll get confident

* You might have a friend or two in the car and the need to "show them" how well it goes around a corner

* It may be wet or dry weather, it won't matter, too much power and you'll be sideways into a pole....

I've been reading these forums for years and the number of stories I've read about both experienced and inexperienced drivers in GTR's abusing the throttle in wet/dry weather and going sideways into a pole is alarming <-- obviously that applies to any car, but GTR's are AWD so often there owners are a little more confident...

Oh, that and you can't afford the repair bill on a GTR unless your rich or working full time and are dedicated to the car :down:

buy it if you can mate...everyone knows that they are an awesome car...just don't abuse it otherwise you might as well have set your $50,000 on fire while making someone drop an anvil on your legs.

oh if your a p plater you also might aswell get some plates on ur car too. "RAPEME".

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
