Fark I go away for a few hours and shits been happening in here....

TL DR version

Ants getting low and tyres

Storage shed guys are dicks

J-Rad is getting a gtr

Martin has a Sore brain

And saw some engine stuff :P

I'll have to catch up reading lol

Ruxis, GTR's are very expensive to maintain (also due to the fact they are AWD)...that is their only downfall

I was contemplating the 600ps Gunmetal Gray R32 GTR for 29k that Iron Chef had in stock at one point, which was immaculate and Grade 4 condition. Until my mechanic talked me out of it and said I wouldn't be able to afford to run it/maintain it. The thing would have had over 100 grand spent on it. HKS 2.8L stroker, T51r etc.

I asked my parents to lend me 14k as I only had 15k at the time, but naturally they refused to lend me money.

Which is why I ended up with a Rwd S15, as cheaper to maintain. But its so slow...sadface =(. And I've already blown all my money on it....and the thing is incapacitated atm.

Buy a shit one, maybe... Buy a good one and you should be right, pretty standard running running costs of any performance cars...

It's just when things go bad, it can get ugly...

But after owning mine for a year, only basic servicing costs have been there

Yeah it should be right. If I do FIFO I'll only be home like 5 days a fortnight so really how much am I even going to want to drive? Haha will have that many jobs on the house to do before I can do anything!!!!

Benji I havent bothered even reading this but thought I would offer you a cup of STFU :)

It's in your best interest :yes:

That yellow one looks pretty good actually. But I have seen yellow 33s that seem to have a pastel type yellow that I'm not a huge fan of... There probably rare like yellow 34rs too?

    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
    • Probably. I take it that they are also mentioned to be for R34 Skyline? For example.... RDA has that part as RDA7957. I have the dimpled and slotted version of that on my car https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/285518478694?srsltid=AfmBOopKxMuAFpsxZJdB1cam4D5RAj1f9yJyOttPZLAwXVNCOiwlhrIy This is DBA's top one piece equivalent https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364246686631?srsltid=AfmBOorbb0XHQgqTvZLgQPhg70nqJtGvdojKnugum3O2LFSr2h-obp8D
