dubchick95 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I already have an exemption... For a turbo. And hopefully I'll be buying the NA Saturday. If not turbo it is. I rather get an NA now cos then if the cars in good nic keep it till I can swap the engine and it'll be sweet Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/431233-mugabetown-whoretownin-at-its-worst/page/356/#findComment-7066926 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rather get an NA now cos then if the cars in good nic keep it till I can swap the engine and it'll be sweet If that's the case, then why not get an R32 and upgrade to a RB25 when you're ready? Lighter, prettier (in my opinion) and a 2L NA won't chew through fuel like a 2.5L NA would. If you are set on getting a R33 NA, then make sure that it is 100% straight and manual. That way, you can flog the box (lol!) and it will take a beating. Will also teach you how the car moves and then you can put the head on a 30 and boost it - which is not as easy as it sounds but anyway.

t5iv Posted October 17, 2013 Author Share Posted October 17, 2013 I can drive manual. It's just that from first to second sucks. Plus city driving is much better in an auto This is true but you get used to it. If it's a factory or forgiving clutch, then you'll be right. No fun to be had in autos really. Autos are designed to be more efficient and economical. I know that in mine, if I'm in D, the car isn't willing to stay about 2.5k rpm even when I'm hammering it. Eg: going around a corner pretty hard, you lift and the revs drop right down as it will automatically select the most economical gear. Whereas in tip, the TCU switches to sports mode and allows a lot more free revving. Don't know if the older manuals had this option. Also, if it isn't tip, how are you going to chose the right gear? If you're in traffic and want to give it a bootful around someone at 60kmph, the box will have you in 4th and you won't have the torque there. Just saying, that if you plan on building the car in the future, get as many things right now as possible as parts cost cash. You could be paying up to $1k for a decent RB25 manual box whereas buying a manual now may only cost an additional $300-$500. f**k with it, learn to drive it, destroy the clutch and replace it. You'll still be better off financially. Don't get me wrong. Autos are great but if you want performance, it should be a manual or a very smart auto box. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/431233-mugabetown-whoretownin-at-its-worst/page/356/#findComment-7066975 Share on other sites More sharing options...
