yeah fair enough but thats easier said than done for someone in my position. i would rather get the job done , route all the piping close to the chassis railing and have all in matte black to make it look somewhat stock. otherwise just drive it stock turbo, keep it a sleeper and if i get caught sell up and buy something legal.

So

you can get pinged for- Modified vehicle, Power-Weight, Unroadworthy vehicle, Major defect, EPA, plus the offense for which you are pulled over. This will be expensive, prob get the 5points needed for a loss of license too if you don't have P's up or are speeding etc.

Then if that doesn't put you off, If you are in an accident, TAC injury insurance and your Property insurance won't cover you after they inspect the vehicle.(Assuming write-off accident).

Have I put you off yet?

Buy something sensible, drive sensible, spend the money on other areas of the car, and just enjoy the freedom and learning to drive. R34 GT-V is pretty much an R34 GT-T minus the RB25DET IIRC. Any skyline with an RB25DE will be quick(not fast, fast doesn't matter due to speed limits) enough. R32's do come factory with RB25DE if you look hard enough.

My opinion.

screw it, I'll take the risk and drive a turbo 32/33, when i get pulled over I'll say its my dad's car hopefully the cop is nice bloke, otherwise the worst thing that can happen to me according to vicroads is 3 demerit points and a fine. and then buy another Fiat 124

LOL @ people who try and claim non turbo RB's are in any way fast (RB30 is slightly better, but no rocket).

IMHO don't bother with a Skyline til you can legally drive (and by that time afford) a decent turbo one, you'll thank yourself for it.

Please then don't post up in 6 months like every other idiot that gets busted and then wants to have a cry about it :P

I wouldnt man....A guy in the qld section, i wont say who, has done just this and he will get screwed

Any officer that see's a kid that cant shave yet in the drivers seat of a turbo car....and doesnt take action is fkn reckless.

Is it really worth it? :P

And what about insurance? If you hit a new bmw, you will be paying it off for the rest of your life.

i was thinking that if the car's registered in my dads name and insured in his name with me as second driver i would be alright but thats a risk i don't want to take.

theres a R32 with an RB25DE for sale right now which is is obviously a very sensible idea which I'm considering Plus if i were to do internal Mods theres no way for police to check, right?

you'll find you 'won't' be right. Just because you can have insurance, doesn't mean you are covered.

DE & mods - why would you waste your time? Dead money.

Drive it, save the cash, then buy whatever you want 2-3 years from now and spend the cash you've saved.

yeah makes sense, sounds like a good idea .

someone else hit the right note.. buy a skyline later down the track and drive something else for now. vtec is good mmmkay. no really it is..

expensive to modify + FWD - but top motor's none-the-less that go very hard

You can't be a secondary driver on a turbo car, forget that bullshit right away. The most important thing is this. If you are driving a car that is banned for you to drive and you get into an accident that kills some one, even if it wasn't directly your fault you will be screwed for life, no insurance, no CTP, nothing, just jail. If you think that is worth the risk than go for it, but your an idiot either way.

wasn't thinking about that stuff - All i thought about was trying to get away with an illegal car.

guess I'm after a GTS25 then, there's one for sale in my state ATM too

NO, what your after is a corolla and save the rest for a gtr when you have a full license.

Hey Jordan, whats the point? u dont need to prove to anyone that ur car can go fast. And no, u cant get away with an illegal car. I was extremely, i realized, to never hav been pulled over in the 33 till 2 weeks before i got off my p's. Tryin to hide your turbo,,,blah blah blah will just cost u more and you'll be major screwed with insurance if u crash.

...2 months of school holidays left

No dont buy a corolla..........if your going to get an old toyota atleast get a crown/cressida. OR buy a cheap non turbo gts4 :P and do a 26 conversion when you get on to your opens :D easy peasy. That is if you are really intent on buying a skyline now. Otherwise then yes I would drive a shitty old vl or something like that around and just get a gtr when im on my opens. But a corolla.........noooooo

Lukas, please change your avatar. I can't stop staring at it, which is a bad thing at work :D so hot

Also, you guys need to l2ACT P's, no restrictions other than BAC ftw?? I think so....tho I'm on my fulls now, so it makes no difference.

My mate's currently on his L's in a ~200rwkw GTT...lovin' the ACT haha

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
