Excellent Advice couldn't have said it better myself. I would deff recommend any type of driving course to help you develop better driving skills and get to know your car better.

for a R34 GTR, i was just wondering about the exhaust and what size/type to get price isnt really an issue just wondering if i could get feedback if it was worth it or if it would sound decent

It'll sound the same regardless of auto/manual.

If you look around, you'll find heaps of skylines with the exhaust already done; aim for them.

Can't agree more with Terry.

Eastern Creek Advanced Drivers Course; 9th April... fark yeah

Terry's the man, advanced drivers course is the way to go. And yes you may be an amazing driver, for all we know you might have the genes to be the fastest racing driver in the world.

But you have to wonder how many young males wish theyd learned some advanced driving while looking at the tattered remains of their pride and joy. I wish I'd done one, I still might. I sure as hell was glad I'd hit the tarmac karting for a year the first time it rained driving my r34 gtt.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
