what do you wanna get?

Won't be getting anything for a while yet, but don't have a clue what I'd get...Nothing new really does it for me....

Few things that always cross my mind are 34 GTR, V35, 32/33 GTR...that's about it really...so who knows

Nice drive to Marysville today. 3 of us got pulling into drug bus in Lillydale. RX7, silvia and myself and didnt get defected, infact all the cops admired our cars and let us on our way haha best :thumbsup:

your lucky i got fkn :domokun: on toorak rd by a chick cop on those drug bus stations she was a fkn hooch and a hald kept me there for 15 minutes, wasnt int he skyline thank god..

V35 if you plan on supercharging/turbo charging it otherwise has to be a 34 gtr. personally i wouldn't spend 40K+ on a jap. some euro luxury/build quality would be nice for a change..

There's a few different things to consider before I chose obviously, but if I was spending $40k+, a lot more options start to present themselves

GTR would be mainly about performance, while still looking good

V35 would be more a nice cruiser first and foremost, but I only like them if done right, so it'd need to be low with a fair stance etc, supercharge/turbo would be nice but would probably be a longer term goal

euro, not sure what I'd get if I went down that path, but like I said, if you're spending 40k+, you'll have a bit more to choose from...

you'd want more for your money if you were spending that much i just dont think there are any jap cars old or new that offer a good all round package. 40k i'd go a bmw e46 m3 (if you want a straight 6) or audi b6 s4 (if you want a v8)without thinking twice coz it has everything luxury, performance, looks, quality etc. if you find a jap car for less than 40K with as much spec and goodies then by all means go for it

And the repairs/maintenance bills to go with it :P

that just depends on -

1) how much of a lemon you buy

2) how useless you are with tools

bout 40K for one with about 100Ks. pretty similar to 34 gtrs

id like to own a hsv coupe but they just aint worth the money people are asking for!

local spare parts, no cop hassles, v8 and a coupe!

Although people want like $50k for them!

coz one day they will be collectibles

V35 if you plan on supercharging/turbo charging it otherwise has to be a 34 gtr. personally i wouldn't spend 40K+ on a jap. some euro luxury/build quality would be nice for a change..

you have a serious euro envy problem... just cos it's made in EU doesn't make it better than anything made in japan...

imho the onlymain thing the euro's do better than the japs is charge

    • So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House  
    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?
