Why? What's wrong with that at all? What's wrong with someone wanting to make their car look nice?

Ever thought some people *Might* (and this may be hard to accept) like these cars as a collectors item over a track pig? And being a collectors item, people want the parts to match.

Just because you don't think they suit what you want doesn't make them shit.

There is no such thing as a valuable collectors car that has been modified.

Rightttt because *you* don't see value or want it that makes it shit.

#greatlogic

yes because brands like arc, ikea, or even a lot of Other companies around the world make a better product for the same or less money

I completely disagree, there's a tasteful way to modify a car. Especially when you make performance increases and see no mods at all except maybe exhaust. Edited by mr skidz

Tell that to the Nismo edition R32's.

That's why the nismo gear is so popular. It's effectively OEM. Why do you think the nismo keys go for 2k+?

Edit: will also point out that some people (again *gasp*) build and collect said car for themselves and not other people?

or just have smarter priorities in life

Or some people are better with money/earn more and decide that's what they want to do.

Just because they like to spend some money on things like nismo parts doesn't mean they don't have good priorities jesus christ

Not everyone earns the same amount of cash.

Man did you hear people spend $5+ million on cars. Where are their priorities? Oh wait they have the spare cash.....

NIsmo R32 = Factory car

Standard run of the mill GTR with Nismo bits = modified

When it comes to collector cars it's all about the build plate

Yes people spend 5 mil on a car....and those people are idiots

Then you realize them spending $5 mil on a car is less of a % of their income than you buying a skyline worth 10k

Who is the idiot? Apples and oranges mate.

I love how everyone in here automatically assumes that because people think nismo is over priced standard parts that they have no money lol

They have to feel better about spending 2k on a 1200 buck intercooler lol

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
