not sure where that came from, haha but im afraid you may well be right :unsure:

Thats generally what happens when guys misplace their balls.

a woman convinces you selling the car is necessary, and may even drop a threat if u don't.. so you sell the shit to buy a house. Wow 10k closer to your deposit..

a while later you round up the remaining cash and buy the house, and you think to yourself... Gee I'd really love a skyline again. Well too bad. For starters ur Mrs knows she could make u sell it and that she can probably stop you buying too. That and the fact you now have a mortgage and are on struggle street, not to mention your Mrs now wants a child..

all the while you realise you could have just garaged the car and kept it for a rainy day.. coz you still want the thing and the 6k it was worth was only 6 months worth of saving anyway - but now you have a mortgage and will never buy another car again.

I hope this has been educational. Men cannot function without a productive hobby, and women need to realise this by being told. No hobby turns you into a waste of a person, always down and depressed. Don't do it.

get rid of the girl before you get rid of the car. Mark my words.

Great advice. Thinking about it now, being without my r33 for the past 2-3 months is starting to wind me up. Wouldnt be happy at all if i were asked to sell it! ( unless its to upgrade to a GTR, lol)

Never a truer word spoken...i kept all my cars..my mates sold all theres with the proviso that after getting a house they could

buy another. Well i have a house and still have 3 cars...they have a house, no testicles and no cars, and dreams of getting one

and there missus won't let them..lol..f**k that..if a chick does that shit, f**k them of before its to late..lol

I'd rather have a turbo car and redtube..lmao

cheers

darren

this is all golden advice! your car money will pretty much melt away for no significant gain & she will never make 'your allowance' form your pay enough to dream of getting anything, it's text book haha

That is the most insightful thing I have read on SAU in a long time :)

LOL FK yeah!

Honestly, imagine living without a constructive hobby like a modified car... What are you gonna do? Grow a garden? PLEASE.

Gotta agree with Scotty here

Without the car hobby all I would be doing in my spare time would be cleaning the house and gardening lol

Got a mortgage, getting married soon, and even if kids decide to pop out. The skyline will still be in the garage!

You guys know how to handle your shiz.

Mine kicks my arse for spending while were trying to save for a house, but I don't mind so much because I want the house too. Admittedly we don't earn a lot and living expenses are up there. Lucky to save $500 a fortnight so its all warranted.

I have set out an agreement that money I earn working on dudes cars is my own personal cream I can use towards my own build. So its well sorted! She also well and truly understands the car is a vital element to maintaining my sanity. Got it sorted.

Be grateful she doesn't look like this....

    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
