yeah, the GTI180 is nice.. about the only small car i would ever consider i think..

Fuel consumption though is pretty high: 11.8 ??

Thats only a few less than my R33 :D seriously!

you'd still be better off with the liberty I reckon.. bigger engine, same or better fuel economy, more room, probably better resale value..

Go a S15. The insurance wont be as much as ur R32.

I dont understand why ur getting a new car just so u can pay $1k a year less insurance? Say u have the car for 5 years than get ur GTR, you've saved $5k on insurance but have to pay a shitload of interest and have a massive loan.

And you wont be able to last the warranty period without modding it.

Oh yes you will, you wont be able to afford mods with the big loan repayments. :(

buy a new corolla,

deal with it for however long, and invest the other money.

sell the corolla and get a GTR.

you shouldn't lose to much on the car and its not like you wouldn't find a buyer for a 3-5yr old corolla.

hopefully you could make a bit of money on the other money to buy the gtr.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
