lol @ buying a skyline as a daily. there's much newer, better cars that will be more reliable than the blast from the 90's.

Off it's tits modded Skyline for the weekend, modern car with luxuries and less headaches for the weekday.

Until you drive a post 2000 designed and built (that doesn't include R34) euro or japanese car over a week you won't realise how much stuff you're missing out on cos you're holding onto 90's tech.

Shit like being able to program the car to lock its doors and wind the windows up if your transponder goes out of range. Or even bluetooth connectivity to your Android or iPhone. Or remembering seat and mirror positions for two people based on which key unlocks it as standard. Auto dipping headlights. Xenons as standard. etc etc.

So my AU is pretty much f**ked! I'm hoping it can last until the new year.

Been thinking about Mazda 3 SP23's. CBF with another import, and want something that's not super boring.

MPS?

are you serious? when we had a cement truck decide to go straight through a stop sign we hit him at about 90km/h and if we didnt have those airbags my dad and little brother wouldn't be here today so id prefer to have a car with airbags than none because anything can happen when your driving.

yeah airbags ftw

lol comparing 90's cars to todays cars absolutely no comparison apart from they all have 4 wheels i spose id take a modern car over old one anyday unfortunately a modern equivalent of my r33 is to much for my thrasher budget plus i wouldnt wana trash an expensive car lol

yes you can compare em. there are 70s mercs that have more tech features than alot of cars of today.

what do you need all the tech for anyway isnt that why you have a house? unless you sleep in your car...

wouldnt mind an M5 for daily and an M3 csl for weekends/track :P

but i gots no paper yo

pfft man its all about the featurs

elec everything, auto headlights, auto wipers, active hid headlights, sensors,reverse camera,sat nav, seat warmers, startbutton, keyless entry and on and on i wouldnt consider another car that didnt have all that + more

dont need an s class, my lexus has that, most bmws/audis/merc will offer that these days some are options but still pretty common.

dunno why ford/holden are still stuck in teh 90s with the crap they are offering up to the local market its a joke really.

all those features alex n i listed are available on a Citroen C4 for like 15000. it's not like 2005 where the only way to get features on the cheap was to import.

opinions on 335i? id love a c63 amg but have no hope getting one of those any time soon.

fkn weapon awesome value there is a 335i e93 (hardtop convetible) for 77k with 26ks on it in bendigo premium selection bmw i was looking at in but meh.. dont really wana tip 20k out of my pocket to upgrade

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
