I never said they weren't useful, just that they're a bad investment.

Several political parties...

Depends on how you value your time I guess! As a raw investment Yeah you always lose. But you have to factor in the cost/benefit too! If it was just a money factor no one would have one.

Political parties don't really care. There isn't enough to really care. They pretend to care so the borderline hippies, of which they're are many more get sucked in!

I dunno, if you had to walk or take public transport every where they would look pretty good as an investment in not having a shit life

that would very much depend on where you are located in Oz

For example if you in live Brisvegas or say Sydney I would forget about taking a car to drive there as the public transport system is pretty good IMO and it's not worth the city traffic wait

You'd still have a car (probably a shit box to get around outside the city)

Now you take the GC where the public transport is just epically atrocious you certainly would appreciate having you're own transport to get around

Irrespective, it's what you see as value to you that makes your investment

However, we all generally know that cars (aside from rare collectibles) result negative ROI

The only way to make decent power on your natro skyline is to build one of these babys: 0BWrtSC.jpg

Guaranteed 10rwkw and super sick sounding induction noise, it sometimes even flutters if you back off after hard acceleration ;)

Trolling around in the NA section lol

No point valuing cars interest financially. It's the emotional ROI.

Fair to say that anything that makes you money is nice to have, but doesn't give you a kick in life. Getting a kick will always empty the pocket.

Morning all. The epic busy-ness appears to be coming to an end. Should have the opportunity to regain some semblance of sanity shortly.... Maybe a couple of weeks or so when I'm on a flight overseas and work can't call or email me.

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
