Also want to be taken for a spin :D

On another note, after going from shagged 275 NT05s to 245 Dunlops I've gone from traction in 2nd on good roads to 'lols' but I don't feel like I'm going to spin out to a tree in the wet which is nice.

Inb4 flogged out Falcon up for sale at ridiculous price.

:P

lulz.

she needs some work yet...... i need lower rear springs, front and rear sway bars, scotty to make me all manner of bracings, and some freaking tyres.

maybe lsd...

Acid will not help you drive a car

If you wanted a 4wd micra, probably a better bet to start off with something like the Familia GT-R and then mod that... they're little rockets when set up right. 154kW for something that weighs about 1000kg, not too shabby as a starting point.

but they break and break hard. gearboxes and diffs are weak as. few parts drifting around from old projects but people usually stick to them for rally and keep them tame.

generally not too common because ugly + heavy. and those that are still around have been flogged by GTR wannabes. still fetch a decent price since purists will start to restore them. they had heaps of nismo optionals etc. (for a small JDM car anyway)

Up late on a Friday night with nothing to do? Ever been scammed by a guy named Jayson from the Blackburn/Burwood area? Haven't heard all about the massive scammer who has been operating here for years?

Why don't you read this thread from page two onwards, where you can -

- See forum member Jayson F, or gtr2nv, known by a variety of other usernames including jet31 (banned on this very forum) not defend himself ONCE against numerous posts linking him to all his other scamming usernames for a period of 7 years!

- Hear from other users who he has stolen from, and then sold the stolen goods on the very same forum!

- Read about how the post office seems to lose some items for which he can't produce receipts!
- Learn about how when some items arrive, they're thrashed or internally cracked!

On the subject of converting to AWD

Should I buy a gtr with my write off money or is the ol gtt/gtst considered on par around the track nowadays when set up well?

Buy back wreck, buy one of the myriad of sub 1k rolling shells or sub 5k gtst's and swap everything in. Spend the rest of insurance cash on more fruit.

Really actually buy Grants 33, huge KSports, Teins, RA3-DT's, tidy interior. Bodywork is not so tidy so it'll be less upsetting when you bend it again :P

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
