Yeh I'm not offended, I'm not new to this forum, been here for almost a year, just cus I don't have 10,000 posts also doesn't make me inferior. I just use this forums to buy parts, I don't really use the forum for advice as its biased and too many champs here trying to be funny/pay out on others.

Shirtstuckedin is hardly underground either, but nice try insulting me. I am no drift king, just having fun and have the evidence to back my claims (Which I am yet to see anyone on here also do) a lot of you people have trouble realizing this and should get their heads out of their asses and stop trying to talk down to me. I would guarantee none of you's would say this to my face if you were ever to see me

Yeh I'd just like to see everyone's personal videos of them doing their sport whether is be drift, drag or circuit. Every one seems to be experts but again. No proof.

And using underwear out of vending machines? I was clearly talking about the car scene, good work!

Jump on shirtstuckedin.com guys. It's a blog, he travels to Japan all the time. He has over 40,000 followers because he understands drift an Japanese culture and understands n/a's are just as awesome in their own way.

Get rid o your redneck mindset that just cus it isn't fast that it is shit

And as with the school holidays quote, funny aye. You probs have a shit paying job and spend your night scrolling through chat roulette stroking yourself in front of guys.

Drifting an na is cheap btw. Like I said, I have had no dramas with my car, I use 2nd hand tyres and get them for free. And a morning session at qr costs 120. Please tell me how it is expensive?

Again, PLEASE LINK ME A VIDEO OF 'YOU' DOING BETTER BEFORE YOU TRY INSULT ME!

Oh god I can't wait to post up my 1/4 mile to shut u the f**k up, dear god.... Your the Human equivalent of a f**king mushroom you think you get rid of them all but u come back

Most of the testosterone getting flung round is by you. You are the one getting super defensive and insisting we all know nothing unless we prove it. Hell you even made a thinly veiled threat of violence.

I don't need to prove myself to someone with a superiority complex, so you feel free to continue on thinking i am just talking out my arse. And yes i would glady say any of this to your face.

lol after watching this thread for a while, i feel bad for fryters. All he originally said was "Na's arent that bad, although they arent fast, they are fun to drift". He wasnt in the wrong, he was making a claim that n/a's arent that bad from his personal experience You guys are the ones who went off topic by challenging him, causing this argument to take place and drift off topic. Then started ganging up on the kid. Even the moderator of this forum stated this topic was about how quick the N/As are but he himself started challenging fryters. Its no wonder his replys are starting to get aggressive, let the guy be jeeze. His a fellow car enthusiast like you, whose passion lies in drifting. So what if he has his opinions on commies, you guys are no different hating on the n/a's with your silly opinions. Seriously i joined this forum thinking people would respect and acknowledge everyone's opinions, turns out they just look down on you if they drive something better, looking for some stupid argument, i just saw another post of a guy asking if he should get a R33 or R34 GTR since he was stuck and didnt know which one to get, obviously he was looking for a fellow car enthusiast to help him out on this God forsaken forum, instead half the guys on that post started having a go at the op for no reason. Ill admit i was also in the wrong in this post, i did curse at one of the members but i apologized for it as well, he still ended up replying to me like a cock. As did a lot of you to fryters. Pathetic, all of you.

Well he did insult my driving by assuming I cant drift/drive and he did insult others aswell because we don't have any 'drift' footage for him. Personally I do have footage of track work, but Im not gonna post it up to prove a point to this jerk off.

I would feel ashamed to own an N/A with this guy trying to be the ultimate fanboy.

As mentioned already theres heaps of guys who have footage on here, they can all drive alot bettter.

Again guys I do have a space shuttle in my garage. I am not going to post pics cus I don't need to prove it to you guys.

And just cus your fit doesn't make you tough lol, the bigger guys are always the funniest to watch fight. Just cus you sit in a room and lift weights and eat clean food doesn't mean your Bruce lee lol.

And again your 1/4mile will be as boring as watching paint dry. 'oh look how quickly that car is moving in a straight line, that would of cost him heaps...'

Well he's only bagging out drag racing because there isn't an N/A import that can get anything resembling a decent time (incidentally not a fan of the sport, but the car going down the 1/4 is only the tip of the iceberg).

The only reason anyone buys them is because they are on their P's.

I found no issues with my N/A skyline. I would 100% own one again if i didn't chose a motorbike as a daily. they make perfect daily drives. Sure they are not overly powerful but you can still drift them and everything is in perspective. If someone takes an N/A skyline to a track to have a bit of fun and they have not driven anything quicker they will have the time of their life. It's like if someone has not driven a 200kw car before they will find it crazy at first. But if someone comes in from a 500kw car it will feel like nothing.

But in saying that yes most people pick them up on P's and then swap to a turbo when they can. However After driving the N/A around and swapping to a GTR the petrol money makes your balls hurt.

Where are these maintenence costs? Plugs, oil, filters are no more expensive than any other car. Some parts that wear may be a bit pricier than for a commo or falcon but are reasonable when compared to other vehicles which also aren't as common. No turbo setup means theres far less to go wrong in the first place...

hmm owning an import for a daily with nearly all of the maintenence costs but none of the power of the turbo variants.... sounds legit...

I had my N/A for 5 years and nothing broke on it. Only general maintenance.

parts mainly, specfically suspension parts that tend to flog out on our shitty roads, and stuff that breaks on 20 year old cars that needs to be procured from specialist wreckers.

Also finding a mechanic who wants to work on imports ($$$ or incompetence, your pick)

Trust me, I've owned both. Not comparing fuel usage as my R32 had a Microtech and bigger turbo, 'nuff said.

I doubt I'd get better fuel economy from an N/A skyline than my LS though (10l/100 or so mostly highway)

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.

      Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
