Hsv Coupe 4 (awd v8 coupe :P )

Although they rare and still expensive.

So I would opt for a monaro or regular hsv coupe (around the $20-$30k)

But thats because Ive stuffed around with turbo cars already and would want to try a v8 now. So if I never had the nissan, id prob look at a cheap xr6 turbo or a aw11 mr2 supercharged cause they look like a fun car to throw around haha

You know if i couldn't drive a Nissan then that pretty much rules out most of my favourite cars... And if im keeping it in the same price range, i hate to say it but i would probably buy a brand new Honda Civic Hybrid :)

Possibly one of the most gutless, understeering pigs on the road... But something about averaging 4.3L/100km is just appealing lol. And they aren't bad looking cars, at least it isn't a hatch back. And the engine turns itself completely off when you come to a stop, and on again when you take your foot off the brake, that is f**kin cool!

Thats probably what i would buy, considering the idea was we have to keep it in the same price range... Half the cars people mentioned here are 5 times as expensive as any Nissan!

*EDIT* Knowing how to beat the pig sensor FTW!!

    • It's generally best practise to run 1x run without VCT enabled, then 1x run enabled till redline. Overlay the two torque graphs and you'll find the desired RPM to turn off VCT. Sometimes, it might be even worthwhile turning off VCT earlier control torque/cylinder pressure and using VCT purely to spool the turbo.
    • They sell them in Malaysia for about $4
    • First time I ever have issues with Amazon, but my wife often tells me to keep an eye out for fakes. It finally got me. I wrapped up the conversation with Gates. The gentlemen I was talking to seemed to hate his job but the response time on their technical support is outstanding. He stated that the hose is marked with some variation of "SAE J30R10" but that if you only purchase a 1 foot length like I did, it is possible to get a cut between markings and have a blank hose. To no ones surprise, he stated the swelling and "gummyness" isn't normal and to replace/buy from somewhere else (He mentioned NAPA). I'll toss a small end of the new one in gas for a few days before pulling the hanger out again, just to be safe.  Hose should arrive Monday. For those running multiple pump in tank hangers, you know the joys of getting them out and back in. I'm surprised I haven't destroyed my level float yet.  Lastly once I wrap all of this up, I'm planning on hitting the dyno again in 2 weeks while I'm on vacation. I realized recently that my VCT is set to turn off at 5000RPM. I'm surprised it wasn't increased while I was on the dyno last. I'm expecting I can increase it to ~6500RPM, if not more. Should hopefully get another 15-20kw out of it. I also want him to revisit my knock thresholds. I'm occasionally getting false knock around 3000rpm. 
    • I don't believe you.
    • All jokes aside, OP they're just called R32 oem rims as you said. The Nissan engineers back in the late 80's loosely copied the design from the Koya Driftek which was designed and produced about 18 years later.
