What car was your first taste of boost in??

Mine was in an S13 CA18DET Silvia. At the time it felt bloody quick!!! Me and a mate were thinking that it wouldnt be much faster than our N/A r31's LOL.

I would love to experience how quick a GTR feels!!!!

So when and what was your first ride in a turbo car??? and what did you think of it???

Cheers

1st taste of boost was in my mates 180SX totally stock then when i worked my ass off got myself a 32 OHHHHH BABY it was like heaven on earth..... but laster that week the devil (cops) rained on my parade.... it was worth it!

only ever being around N/A cars as i grew up i thought the vn ss was quick but when i had my first taste of a 11 sec vl turbo i think i had to be revived in the back seat, such a rush and ever since then, i personally, dont know how i wont want to own a car that isnt turbo!

my mates S14a 200sx put me in my seat. he's like "Still think only milk and juices comes in 2L?" my kingo at the time had a 4.2L V8, and it had nothing on the silvia. Thats what made me decide on a Skyline, because i just can't go to 4 cylinders...

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
