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

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must me missing something?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
