Z4 sucks unless its the hardtop ones even then needs to b an M or something.

They suck for space too boot doesn't exist and a4s are just nasty unless it's te new model full specced

more for style than performance. not fussed over space either aslong as im comfortable...

Good idea. I was heading down this exact path a while ago...still haven't ruled it out. Have you driven one yet? I was never a huge fan until I test drove one. They feel like a big go kart, nice and tight, very capable feeling and easy to drive, fun little car. Only thing I gave my Skyline over it was the performance factor. Obviously a lot harder to extract that out of the Honda, but they do alright as a standard car. I think S2000s have dropped in value as much as they are going to. Keeping in mind they were an 80k car brand new, you can now pick them up between 20 and 30, it's a bargain. Try and get one with a glass rear window rather than the perspex.

Nah, I haven't driven one, but from what I've heard of people who own them they are great cars to own. I've owned two Honda Preludes and for a front wheel drive, n/a car they are quite fun to drive. I think it's good to see that they are holding their value since you can get a 350z or rx8 for about the same price even though they are both newer. The only thing holding me back is the lack of power but from what I've seen they aren't that slow. I'm getting to the point where I want something that is nicer to drive, more economical, more reliable but still great fun.

Yep, any criticism I've heard about them has usually been from people who haven't driven them, which is just dumb.

Like all Hondas they hold their value well (look at the CRX). And unlike the Z, there is nothing to supersede them, so that's probably another reason. They aren't slugs, just nothing you'd go dragging turbo imports with. I would have thought the 9000rpm engine would have you wringing it to move anywhere, but they have no trouble moving along in the daily traffic. Anyway, like I said, go drive one and see what you think...but I reckon you'll choose one over your Skyline if you don't mind spending the money on a 10-12 year old car.

yea? they look roomier than s2k's and i fit fine in them but i'll check one out and see how it goes

But do you really want to drive a slow car :D I bet when some P plater in a XR6 turbo rocks up next to ya and smokes you off the lights your going to wish you had gotten a GTR, or a M3 or something :P You should totally get a new Ford GS.. absolutely amazing cars for the $$

And yes I've been in a s2k nice cars but seemed a bit slow (in a straight line at least) and too small for my liking.

he/she would only smoke me if i actually raced him/her :) its only a cruiser, if i wanted to smoke cars at the lights i'd get a 3 grand vl turbo and spend the rest on the engine...

im definitely getting an e46 m3 its one of my favourite cars of all time just cant justify spending that kinda cash atm. not going over 30k.

Yeah fair enough, it all comes down to what you actually want from the car just make sure your certain when you decide! Only thing I hate about my car is the age really.

And nah just keeping the R figure I'll just save for a nice cruiser sooner or later and use the R for track / weekend - really loving the Ford GS but saving for a road bike first :P

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt
