It's easy to stir this pot.

N/A skylines are shit and slow and will be eaten by a commonwhore.

*runs away and jumps in his 33 gtr because he knows that no p plater in a N/A skyline will catch him (except for a sss pulsar because sss pulsar > my gtr)*

Edited by eat_me

I know the n/a skylines are no performance car, plus trying to get huge amounts of power out of any p plate car isnt the smartest idea (5 points dont last long)..

i drive a non turbo R33 being a p plater and almost every one of my freinds has hung shit on it until they have been in it.. All of my freinds have commodores and one of them even sold his and bought an n/a skyline after driving mine..

I picked my car up for $4800 with rego and rwc.. and it drives 10 times better than any of my previous cars (celica, calais, statesman ect..) point being that even though they may not be as powerful as the turbo ones i dont see why p platers should be criticised against and called posers for driving the cars they have a passion for.. and in my opinion having owned both of them most japanese cars turbo or not are a lot better built and nicer to drive than your average commodore

And just to set the record straight, i have run against a few of my mates with commodores including a worked vs manual, vt and vy s pac and not one of them could keep up.. my car is bog stock except for a cat back..

sorry about the rant.. thats just my 2 cents

N/A 20B PP

2 litres, no turbo, big power.

well either they have massive amounts of kms on the engine and are flogged out (possibly flogged out auto gearboxes), or your mates can't drive. in healthy condition and driven decently they would beat you.

as for the SSS, most people on here know my feelings about them, lol.

I just don't get P platers and insisting on skylines or silvias etc.

take the blinkers off your eyes mate.

go have a drive in a Renault Sport Clio 172.

1050kg

124kw

leather bolstered seats

xenon head lights

throw it in to a corner or 2 and see if you an even remember what a non turbo skyline or silvia is.

that is just one example of many good cars for P platers.

Unless you want to pose.. then my post is of no use to you.

Mine is alright. Bought it off Karl Ryndler (V8 supercar driver).

Has a group N ecu and an exhaust, factory everything else.

By numbers it's a rockin' P plater car;

1) Mine Did 14.2 sec 1/4 mile at the motorplex (consistant 14.3's), and that's not even it's performance strength

2) goes around corners

3) Stops better than the Porsche 911 of the same year from the factory

4) no police attention

5) Safety features all round

6) rear seats come out in within 1 min due to clear design.

7) bolt in cage easy to obtain for track weekends

8) very light weight means track days are cheap

9) 6.8L / 100 km around town ecconomy

No N/A skyline/Silvia will touch it. At the drags even most of the turbo ones were slower on the night ha ha...

+1 for Clio's, my mate had one bog stock on semi slicks and around corners was the fastest car i've been in :worship: in first, second and a little bit of third it use to stay level with my cousins 200rwkw R33.

+1 , knew it

You know nothing.

You said they run 14s. There's a massive difference between a "15" second car and a 14 second car.

And if it was a 15.9 then you didn't know it. No mention of what, if any mods were done to the "15" second car. You claimed stockos do 14s. They do not. Flat 16s, maybe a high 15 is what they will do stock. Do the usual mods, exhaust and CAI and you might see a mid to low 15, maybe.

    • The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.
    • But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...
    • I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference
    • I didn't actually try it at the time but a Launch X431 with the appropriate software licenses/upsell will have the ABS bleed function. The Consult II you can still find some old sets of equipment but they're really, really expensive:   
    • Well I'll start by saying I'm not an engineer. I am going to go with the KiwiCNC ones.  They are made of 7050 alloy have good fillets and radius.  The material alone is in the order of double the strength and fatigue resistance - Those bolts, once torqued correctly place most of the load at the flat face of the mating surface - the 'stretch' you're talking about through torqueing them up would be far more than the extra stretch 'load' placed on them from a steering input or bump. (in my opinion) so I doubt they would flinch.    - but again "not an engineer".      oh and I don't think stitch welding 7050 is a good idea, likely just weaken the material (from what I read)
