my first car was a R33 gts...i always wanted a skyline but my parents kept telling me no your not getting one till your 21 so ended up with the r33 gts and to be honest it was a really good car to drive and really realiable...yer i coped shit from my mates..but you kno what..atleast i knew my car was worth more then most p plates cars, most drive shitty 5-8k bombs..but anyway im 20 now and im over the NA stage..after driving varias turbo cars its made me want a turbo so bad so finaly convinced my dad to let me get a gts-t which infact going to go look at this saturday. btw for the people who think NA are better on fuel your wrong...i have a mate who owns a r32 gtr 9 second one...he can get around 500km a tank.

Wow, a bunch of "adults" who supposedly share a common hobby trying to ignite e-wars. I guess people don't grow out of the keyboard warrior phase. If a visitor read that it would look real good for the club... morons.

Ehh everyone's pulling such bad fuel economy. I'm getting 600km to 65L on 98Oc.............(Central coast driving, no highway), and its a 2.7 L now

Anyone else getting the same?

This was about commodore drivers, yeah i get a lot of, my car could beat your car talk from them but i have never ever met someone in my whole entire skyline life of 1 year and 2 months that said my skyline is ugly. Not even commodore drivers bad mouth it.

Check it out;)

Well the laddies did do there voting :blush: Pretty sure skyline wins hands down now.

The majority of people in the world love its look and things like the top gear vote are everywhere over the internet. The majority of people like the look so try not to narrow it down as if you think its ugly then it must be because you said it was...

Performance wise i spent a nice $4000 on making my engine new and a RB27DE so mines got the power it needs to perform faster than what it did from the factory :P The PO PO pulled me over today to see if it had a turbo because of my red P plates, NICEST COPS EVER. I ended up talking to them for like 20min

^ yeah thats true, the skyline is not ugly at all. Some skylines look ugly because of their condition. I have seen some r33's that looked so ugly because of wrong Matchin Wheels etc... so who ever sed skylines are ugly is wrong, ITS YOUR SKYLINE THAT IS UGLY.

They look sexy, and i have had chics tell me that its a hot car a couple of times. and i remember once i was driving on Alexander road and two chics waiting at the bustop near ECU shouted sayin "GIVE ME YOU CAR" hahhaha

and no i did not buy the car to get chics, i already have one but i am just sayin that it is not ugly and most people love the looks of the car.

Even my managers GF. lol

Lets stop the shit talk now... if you cant stop then log off

Peace....

:D

haha i wish i got that many k's i get around 350-400 km's but thats a bit of hard driving as well :P

i used to get around 17L/100kms out of my 33, which wasn't much more than my 3.5L magna (about 16L), although if i took it easy in the magna it would be down around 13L, but i never really took it easy in the skyline so don't know what i would get out of it although on the highway though it was down around 10L/100km. plus i did a lot of short trips (gympie isn't that big a place) so it was always either on cold start enrichment or being boosted (didn't drive it hard when cold). also with gympie being small you can't just drive along 1 road for ages without having to stop at an intersection. to go home from work you had to stop 3 times and slow down to turn another 4 times in about 2km. but in brisy when i stayed with friends, driving round in the city you can drive for ages without having to slow down (depending on time of day). plus i was running 14psi

All Skylines have a Nice Ass.

For me, the best part is the 4 circle tail lights on the ass.

Looks amazing at night when they all light up :rant:

Thats how I took notice of the skyline in the 1st place (& eventually got me insterested to learn more abou them), while watching initial D. That black R32 GT-R 4 circle tail lights made it stand out from the other cars shown (which all had boring squarish tail lights...), too bad that guy who drives the GT-R in the anime sucks, he keeps on crashing it :D

I dont get why the N/A haters are in this thread, let alone SECTION

your cars dick is bigger then my cars dick cause you got a turbo

congratulations

My car is fast enough for me, handles brilliantly, looks nice and sounds good.

For some time I was after an RB20DE R32 for a daily. Unfortunately I couldnt find bugger all, For some reason very few made it onto our shores ( So I am told ) So I ended up with a Corolla instead

Spot on :down:

I Get bagged out a bit but my 123rwkws is enough to take on any 4.0 ford or commodore ive come across, in a straight line dont even get started about the corners.

so. in conclusion it looks better, is faster in a straight line against any other 6 NA ive come across, and around corners and its a 2 door coupe and women like it more? whats there not to like?

^123wkw is a pretty respectable number for a 2.5 atmo engine. What mods got you there may I ask ?

Its how i bought it, something is up with it which i am not sure as it only has a cat back but from the looks of the power curve a nice tune as well other then that nfi.. not a happy dyno ether

    • For these last 7 years of ownership, I've always had to use a small scissor jack under one of the front tow hooks to raise the front just enough so my low-profile jack fits under to reach my subframe jack point. I'm beginning to get annoyed of always having to do this. Are there any lower low-profile jacks that fit under the gtr lip on a dropped car?
    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
