Hey :(

I just bought a R33 GTS... and i am absolutely in love with it :(

But like ive herd off a couple of friends "Why even buy a skyline if its not turbo" not to my face of course.. :D

Like they are commonwhore owners.. like vn's.. is it coz i dont fit in.. f**K! im sorry i dont have sagging doors like you guys. geesh.. ... im sorry my rb sounds decent.. i could go on and on..

But yeah i just had to be different and not get a holden liek everyone else.. hell i could have bought like 5 of them.. But ive love'd the shape of r33's for like 5 years now.. Best damn p-plater car ive seen. Like you holdens arnt v8's? or charged... so ha

So yeah, just me blowing steam... coz people cant say what they think to my face... :( Sour grapes i say..lol

You guys have common experiences? Show me some skyline love :)

Nick. :(

lol dw most commodore drivers are like that, some seem to think they;re the top street machine in a dumped vt with chopped springs. even though i drive around in mums VE SV6 black with dark rims aswel, still pretty tough.

JAP all the way though

Haha i have heard that before.

i also have the GTS TYPE S non turbo

After i bought it, most of my friends asked why i bought a Non Turbo and whats teh point.

Its not that fast but its still faster than most N/A's out there.

Plus they look way better than most cars for sure.

lol get used to it from whore owners. i think youl find that your NA will put the smack down on all but the worked V8s haha. Just wait till you see the look on there face when a engine half the capacity in size beats them :)

I was looking at your forsale thingy at school today :) and yah, they look way better, :)

Nothing wrong with a Non-turbo mate, as long as you love your Skyline then it doesn't matter :)

I love it heaps.. i some time catch my self staring at it... just standing there.. then im like.. hey wait a minute im supposed to be doing something.. lol

It's your car, not their's... be proud of you N/A Skyline :) It doesn't matter what you drive, a car enthusiast is a car enthusiast regardless of make or model.

I have the same love my skyline before the turbo as i do after it. :) It was also great fun driving it as an N/A too.. just cause the majority of skylines are turbocharged doesn't make it any less a skyline! I hate that sort of mentality.

edit: speelling

geelong is full of commowhore drivers like that - take a look at eastern beach on a fri/sat night :)

comparing my NA R34 to all the NA commos i've driven (VN, VS, VX, VY), most are auto, and aren't much cop anyway!

Lol, easterns is full of them.. :) . Your from around there?

i love my lil N/A

i chop heaps of shizz all the time - but i dont worry to much about it (or try not too anyway) - alot of the people that pay me out think they are cool for it.....but in the end my girl does me proud - with 18 trophies to her name :) :)

chuck me a NA skiz over a v6 holden anyday

least you can chuck on some coilovers and swaybars and chop up corners

commo's are good for fark all

Soo true, like i used to want to get a classy vx calais.. but my dad was like... "old mans car..."

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
