Might get intercooler, run a smaller pulley and e85 down the track, however then I need injectors and fuel pump as well which is all $ and don't think the change from 370 to 450 odd would be that different.. would get me dat 10 though best someone has got with a tune only is 11.3 down the 1/4 mile with good tyres

Or perhaps it's time I save for a house

Get one with a garage, or regret it for ages :-/

[UNR33L]

haha ofcourse garage will be the first thing I look at

[emts]

I'm thinking a shed, I need to be able to store at least 4 cars, preferably more!

[Rekin]

Where are you?

In Malaysia

Bro tip: stay away from Malaysia. All to do here is spend money in the shops... Credit card not like this

I'm limited by my sloping block, designing a 6x9 with extra height to stack cars with a hoist, so should fit 3 with storage

lol... do you NEED a 10?

370 is stupid power! why risk blowing an engine on a 50k car for extra power that you wont be able to use?

[llama_au]

don't you hate it when you've lost the rear end (more than once) on your FWD when out on a track, later find out the previous owner hit a gutter a few years ago and knocked one of the rear wheels out.

get it measured up at Tyre Factory when they were doing other work and find one of the wheels to have 6mm toe-in and the other 1mm. then take it to Centreline Suspension (more than reputable from what I've seen/read) and they measure 1mm toe-in on both rear wheels........

grrr

My Pulsar also had near on 0mm toe in on one side and 6mm toe in on the other side - as you know that is within Nissan spec and the only way to get it better is to bend the rear beam. It almost always has nothing to do with accident damage - that's how they came out of the factory.

I agree it makes the car very unstable particularly with quick changes of direction. Could best describe it as crabwalking. Noticed it at turns 11 & 12 at Sandown more than anywhere else.

Polo TDi...I'm impressed. Averaging 3.4L on the freeway. Could get to Sydney on $60.

That's quick! What happened to 12 month wait? Our 18 month wait for 86 has been upgraded to ~6 months too.

[UNR33L]

yes.

Golf GTI is a great all rounder daily. Great tuning potential too. For the money though, Polo kicks ass. Turbo diesel moves off the line and the 7 speed DSG helps. Would get one if it was a bit better looking, but compared to others in the same market it's probably the best looking.

[blah_blah]

I drove my mates new Golf GTi last week. Very smooth to drive, gearbox is silky smooth. Very refined

[Miguelone]

R32 turnflow FMIC fits R33 easily enough?

[Count Grantleyish]

yes.

Do you have the shop, mortage, the team and all their bullshit?
