Nooo Nark, ok something new but not the Rex, get EVO 1 or 2 instead, GSR....or Familiar Gtr any of these on my list will nail a Rex easy.......oh yeah Godzilla Junior the Pulsa Gti-R..

Don't know why i hate the Rex but yeah i drove me mate's one before and they goes alright but not midrange and top end though.

Anyway sad to see you leave OUR SKY but like you said you'll be back.:)

hehe i would love an EVO4 thats the evo i reaaaally like but they arent that easy to come by and they arent that cheap... plus they are getting on a bit... im going for something no older than 5 years so that pretty much rules out most imports i love that i can actually afford.

its just a phase im guessing.... time to try other things for a little while until i get another liner :)

just keep the 32!! the WRX aren't that crash hot. I've driven one, cheap feeling throuughout - but they do go ok, and are quite fun. I think it would get a bit dull after a while though driving every day. They make a lot of noise which makes them seem faster than they are, but they're not as fast as a skyline I didn't feel (well a nice 33 anyhow :))

why waste the time or money on a rex just for that short period of time if you really want a 34?.. a rex will still cost you at least $20k anyhow, insurance costs will rape you, etc

the wrx im looking at has quite a number of mods on it already... but yes dave i did say this a while ago when i wanted to get a GTR but decided against it and kept my car... i will miss it ive got quite attached to it.

wouldnt mind an S15 for a while.... bit more expensive but i wont be keeping it for long so wont lose much on it when i sell :)

yeah go the wrx, because you'll buy it for a certain price with whatever mods, then in 6 months you will lose say around $1000 when you sell so it really doesnt matter, unlike if you were to buy an s15 with say exhaust bleed valve whatever, it'll lose more value quicker than an older my 98-99 wrx

Ok Nark has decided i think, oh well instead of loosing a SECOND to Josie, now TWO :( ( with the Rex ) only kidding.

DONT forget their Tranies are very FRAGILE Nark. The guy at my work has pump out 220@wheel but along the progress he has about 3 tranies go walk about.

You can't launch them Hard either, after all Nark, PULSAR GTi-R man, quad throttle, chain driven, attessa. Bolt on some HKS blower or even a T04E and you'll run 12.

Consider man.:D

lol west yeah i know how quick a GTiR is but they are also butt ugly and old... defeats the purpose of something new :(

dont worry i know the WRXs have a shite drive train and u cant launch it hard but im not going to be using it for drags.... i want to take it around my uncles farm do a bit of 4WD rallying and drive it up thru the hills.

That's just like me... i can't decide b/n Evo6, MY04 WRX, GTR 33 or GTT 34..... Not that I'm in a rush, but I want something new, yet affordable and powerful.

The Skylines are at the top of my list though:bahaha:

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
