You beauty!!

A nice alive forum with plenty of talk and opinions.

I didnt know about the difference (apart from cosmetic) between the R32-34.

I have always loved the older shape of the 32 and always wanted one.

I definaly will come around to a club night and the skid pan saounds awesome!

Thanks for the feedback.

As for the $20 it was a token figure. I was really hoping to come round someones house and drool over there car without having a sales person try to sell it to me.

A club day would fit the bill perfect

if u get a R32 you will be pulled over more than if you owned say R34

true story

me and my mates crusing to one of the meet ups (2) R34's (1) R33 (1) R32

who gets pulled over? the R32 lol

reason from cops mouth: people buy R32's cos they cheap and they mod them and thrash them, the R33 and the R34's are less likley to be moded heaps

little they know :D

ive owned my 32GTR for almost 5 years now and ive been pulled over a whole of 4 times. 2 random checks. 1 roadworthy. 1 speeding fine.

Drive stupidly and you will be pulled over. it doesnt matter what you drive.

were those 2 random checks really random?...lol

agreed, drive sensibly and you will be ok....most of the time =)

2 random checks as in checked my tread and looked at the motor. 1 of those checks was from Graeme from this forum and his reasoning is cos its a skyline. he had a good chat to me and was genuinely nice. talked about his car as well.

True to a point. But if we are talking about who is more likely to be pulled over if you are both driving the same with say a Skyline vs Camry.. I think we all know the answer :D

come up to a DECA event and you can ride around the skidpan in HEAPS of modded skylines...

as long as you bring a helmet :cool:

^^^Dont do this. You'll drive straight back to Melbourne and buy one after a ride in a quick one around the backtrack :verymad:

Yeah true but thats a different point to what i was making. Im talking about sports car vs sports car such as 32 vs 33 vs 34 vs s15 etc etc. not a daily compared to a high performance vehicle.

A good point here, a cop had a choice of pulling over me in my R32GTR or the VT commodore sitting next to me. The cop chose the VT. Why? because i drove off from the lights sedately where as the VT being the hero he is left a massive burnout and easliy hit 100km'h in the 80.

Which takes me back to where i began. drive within the law and they will leave you alone. Break the law and you will get pulled over.

The people who say drive within the law and you'll be fine have clearly never felt the awful experience of being pulled over when you were driving within the law, and more sedately than the people around you...giving you an instant feeling of "WTF did I do?". Take for example operation pipedown where standard vehicles were getting reported for EPA testing, not just loud. I went 12 months without getting pulled over once, would even drive up alongside police cars without a hassle. Wondered what everyone was whinging about with police and imports, but then one day my perception changed with good reason...

Gotta agree with birds there.

I have copped 2 defect in 3 months, and one full EPa emssions test. Each time doing nothing wrong. the EPA well yea i cop that on the chin my car was loud (all fixed now)

The defects were a rip. tyres and exhaust for the first.

The second was for my wiper washes one of the four was not pointing straight. And my hand brake had one too many clicks, and to make it an Major full RWC needed he said my brake pedal didnt have enough rubber on it....WTF?

The officer was looking at my car for nearly 20mins, and that is all he could get me on. So that says to me he was gunna get me no matter what.

But there is nothing more true than drive like a flog and you will get pulled over. What kills me is we get singled out and painted with tha same brush.

My trust in Police has diminished somewhat over the last few months.

Anyway........34 GTR.

Thanks everyone!

Thats awesome.

I cant believe the cops nabbing you for wiper blades not straight and rebber worn on the brake pedal.....

Extermon8or thats a golden pic!

Whats the go if your pulled over for a mechanical or an EPA test and you got an aftermarket computer, a non standard turbo and a few of the other comon go fast mods onboard?

Are you flogged?

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
