simple as this really, would you consider a 32 gtr a supercar? no. whats so different about the 35 that makes it so super? essentially the same platform with modern features.

can you stroll into your local Lamborghini dealership and buy an aventador off the showroom floor? no, but you can walk into a nissan dealership and buy a fancy new skyline. and chances are you don't even have a local lambo dealer anyway.

lol essentially the same platform with modern features.

Half of the "supercars" you buy ATM don't even have a funky transmission.

GTR isn't classes as a supercar simply because of the price tag.

If they tagged them at 250-300k, everyone would call them that.

And no - you couldnt walk in and buy one off the showroom floor initially either. They were pre-order for a long time.

But where do you draw the line / price bracket to define it this way? That sounds more like the definition of an exotic than a supercar.

Agree with Jamie & Hamish. I think the stigma of Nissan being a family car producer gets in the way of people thinking the R35 is a supercar. If it was the only car that Nissan produced, people would certainly think of them as a supercar manufacturer. Being that there's only one R35, it's 180k and it's bloody fast, I consider it a supercar.

Though going by the supercars.net definition, every car is a supercar lol.

Also don't forget cars over here are HEAVILY inflated price wise due to dealership rorts and LCT.

You can could purchase new in Europe and import yourself - even factoring in taxes etc, for significantly less.

I'd say at the least 20%, saving yourself 100k on a 500k car.

Moh, I see you lurking!

You ask me to be regular on S/W and Y U NO POST?

Been a crazy busy week nigga.

Working 8-5 and then till late on the 32.

So happy it's actually a clean car. Less work.

Got an XR6 turbo in at work getting a 6 speed put in it...the kid mentioned that it occasionally stalls. Pop bonnet - induction straight off the turbo, no pod filter, nothing.

Hmmm, hearing from a lot of people that I'll get bored with a 250 Ninja real fast....

Don't wanna go straight to a big bike but don't want to buy something that I'm aiming to keep for ~12 months if I'll be over it in 3 weeks

Also don't really wanna spend more $ on something like a 650 LAMS Ninja when I'm just gonna be upgrading in a year either...

Might just have to settle for the slowness of a 250 Ninja, ride it for a year then step up to a negro gixxer 750

does it dose? fundamentally thats whats important.

Yes it does and, these XR6 are much laggier than I thought they would be...kind of ordinary at least on stock boost...when you look at the size of the turbo though :/

why would you get bored of a 250 are you really that obsessed with speed?

sure i'd prefer 600+ but it's purely for cosmetics/frame size. most 250s look meh and are small

had a close up look at a megeli 250r they are tiniy :/ and gay wheels

and how long does it take vicroads to mail me my fkn license

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
