32gtr......

Look i love skylines, i breathe them...

But fk me man, they don't come close to the refinement of a RS4.

Ye i could spend 100k on a GTR and have it taking me into orbit... I'd still have a RS4 given the chance.

Agreed.

You could spend half a million dollars on an R32 GTR and have one of the quickest cars on the planet, yet at the end of the day an Audi R8, E92 M3 etc are still going to be the better cars. It aint just about being the fastest in a straight line or having the quickest possible time around a track, there is a hell of a lot more to top end cars than that.

Who says most Ferrari owners don't come off as stuck up tossers, no idea what they are on about.

Another reason to buy a Euro over Jap, No one can beat them in passenger safety.

Awesome thing to say in a thread about some one dying in a Jap car.

Similar dilema to myself when I sold my 34 gtr...what did I get...E46 M3.

335 is nice but just isn't an M3. RS4 has changed shape a few times now and looks a bit 'normal'. TT is just too small in the back seat. 996 is an enthusiast car but the missus hated it.

I sold the M3 now and guess what I am thinking of.....guesses...no....2001 34 GTR V spec 2...back to the darkside.

Why...well your list scares me to touch...the GTR has this marvellous site to help with parts and issues cheaper.

Personally I wouldn't buy Euro, I work on the stuff everyday and it makes me laugh how people pay ludicrous amounts for basically very poorly made crap.

That aside :down: i would get the Porsche, only one out of the lot I would even consider.

According to a Cars Guide (DTM) Motoring Editor...

"Regardless of whether you are male or female, you'll spend 10% of your time selecting a car (by design as much as performance/comfort) of your choice; and then 90% of your time to justify it! :(

Your thoughts?

totally agree...

and i just dont get the fezza thing... the italians aren't any better at making cars than anyone else, they are just better at telling people they are the best... just like their boring ass cuisine

i dont hate all expensie cars.... I would definately splash the cash for a GT3 rs :(

Id say i spend about 2 % selecting it, 50% thinking about modding it 10% actually modding it, 30% fixing it 8% jerking off over it..

Lifes to short for justification.... :)

I think as you get older you appreciate things more and hence I'd live a ferrari but I'm still a kid at heart so GTR is simple fun.

Don't forget insurance if you are the wrong age.

Ever consider something like an STI liberty or an Alfa GT with your range anyway.

Well basically it looks as if I'm being rat-f**ked into the getting the TTS *awaits tidle wave of laughter* yes you guessed it, it has come down to "what car looks better" to the Mrs.

Currently she says

BMW E46 M3 "Looks dated, interior sucks"

BMW E92 335i "Likes a lot, but looks like an old mans car from the back"

Audi B7 RS4 "Old mans car, has four doors, wtf are you thinking"

Audi 8J TTS "Fantastic LOOKING car, wow I love these (even though your face is screwed up when you mention lack of performance"

Porsche 996 Carrera "I like them, not fussed either way"

I even threw the SLK 350 AMG into the mix today as we parked next to one......she said "What the hell is that, it's tiny"

I've tried saying we can get her a nice cheaper TT that's not Quattro (to apease the 'looks' issue) and me getting something more on the awesome side...but it's being vetoed hard at the moment.

I've suggested we just do the rounds of the showrooms and go for some test drives and see what we can agree on.

She's not a massive fan of my car that's for sure, I got an ear bashing today because of it's noticeable performance increase since she got in it last week, bloody human dyno I tell ya!!!!

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
