Reading the beginning of the thread, i thought ok, this is something different.

I dont understand why people put this guy down so much for wanting to do something different.

Fair enough he lost all respect when he claimed the 200odd kw from the na setup but yeah thats another argument.

All you guys suck because you dont have open minds to people doing different things.

So what if he wants to make a GTR NA, i reckon it would be cool to see something different like that. It might not be the best bang for buck but hey, its his money. Who made all you guys king?

Why be like everyone else? Life would be boring it everything did the same old shit to their GTRs...hang on, it is boring because people do the same old shit to their skylines. Well most do anyway.

I agree, if he happened to be someone who wished to do it as a technical experiment as something unique rather than a 'loophole' to a law (which still fails), i'm all for it

The fact that he is an 18 year old that thinks he knows more about the laws than people who are far older than him.

Bottom line is, he wants an NA GTR to get around the turbo law. In fact, regardless of it being NA, he is still in violation of said law but he continued to argue the point.

Then he tries to claim that his supposed NA setup got 250awkw?

The guy is a joker, a young nieve know it all that has a lot to learn in life.

Another term for this kind a person is an 18 year old male, we are all like this at that age.

Maybe this kid is talking about his GTR in Playstation GT4

I don't see NA 2.6lt engine can make that much power unless you have big cams

18year old should have a 1.6lt to start with, eg something like civic, that's better.

f**k yeah...

Why are young kids stepping straight off trainer wheels and into frekin GTRs!? Madness!

Clearly they have very little respect for dangerous cars, I see it alot these days, driving on the road today, I saw a RED (first 6 months) P plater hanging a VY SS commodore sideways in the wet, he lost control in front of me and spun out, I stopped and gave him quite a verbal for it. In fact all cars are dangerous put in the wrong hands!

Inexperienced drivers and fast RWD based cars are a BAD mix, young drivers need to learn in a sub 2L small car, not a top of the range Japanese (twin) turbo performance coupes!

maybe all young people should only drive fwd cars so when they take a corner too fast, or try and do a burnout or slide it out they end up going straight off the road and hurting themselves and not others lol.

You mean like this guy:

+ 1

Personally I think its all about driver education teach the inquisitive younguns when there 16 and will take any excuse to drive, so that when they do get their P-Plates they can control anything from a 1.8L Pulsar to a 6.2L Clubsport. I spent my P's driving big RWD Commodore and Falcon wagons and learned the cars limits and my own quite quickly, so now I drive more or less grandma style keeping to the speed limits and only really giving it the boot at the traffic light GP.

As far as the NA GTR goes I can only echo my fellow SAU'ers opinions, it is one of the stupidest project ideas I have ever read about on here. OP do yourself a favour and just buy a R31 with the dirty 30 and have your fun, wrap it around a tree no biggie and your not out of pocket 20+k.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
