Higher base cost for the car though.

Either way, different cars for different purposes.

I'm sure he didn't pay the current market value for the car when he bought it 7-8 years ago lol.

Probably not 50k but still expensive. Plus stock for stock.

Well, there's also a thing called technology.

Tis huge difference between a R33 and a taxi with bonnet bulge, a spoiler and some stickers.

You aren't seeing the point.

People were giving him shit about his tune costing 1400. When all it cost his was $1400.

Your tune may cost only $600, but does the tune alone get you to 370kw on a stock car? No.

Hence my point.

When you do all those mods to get it to 370kw is it legal? And was it free ? No

And if you then wanted to compare Leigh's car to the current g35 skyline being released which is roughly the same price if not more good luck getting it to 370rwkw with just a $600 tune

Don't see how people can give me shit with the ECU costing me $800 brand new and tune was like $600 which is like normal? :s

Power FCs are what $750 second hand?

Duno why haters hate just because it says "ford" there's faggots/ricers in all brands of cars.

I got your back!

Aaron, again, it's all about technology, many of new cars can be flashed with stock ecu, and whereas majority of older cars can't.

Leigh, why did you have to get new ecu for the taxi?

Tony, already told Matt to call Jack.

G35. New car new technology. $1200 tune still won't get u there :)

Sorry not new ecu, just a flash tuner module.

this guy got my back!

basically I wanted a brand new, legal car with good power and decent handling for $55k nothing else came close - sure i've spent $5k on 'mods' but to me wheels / coilovers were gonna go on any car I got.

Didn't want fork out like $20k building up my 33GTR sure, would be quick but still a 90s car that i spent too much on imo

Yep, cos I can't work out why you'd say G35 in the equation when we were talking about ye olde r33...

BTW, Leigh knows I like to give him a shit about his 'fancy taxi'

Sorry not new ecu, just a flash tuner module.

Ah makes sense.

And nope back to square one, dads VZ has the basic low weight tow kit

if you find a tow car, i wouldnt go with BP trailer. You will need to remove frontbar to get on.

I recommend this;

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
