no one has compliance yet. there's a lot of companies running around saying they have the crash data and all the documents etc, but no one has coffed up the plates... so no, you can't import one yet.

meh, not a skyline my arse... you guys do know that the JGTC R34's didn't run RB engines right? they ran VQ's... based on the ones that are now available in the V35s. They're awesome cars in their own right, and they do what they're built to do best... which is to be a family car. Don't forget that the Skyline model was never intended to be the GT car or the Bathurst winner, the first designed Skyline in 1957 was a family car. The sports car model was the Fairlady, and the small car was the Silvia (or Bluebird).

Among other things, when I said Nissan selling their soul, this includes giving away the forced induction. No doubt the VQ series is a well-engineered engine, but that's not the point.

If it's good enough for Opel, Ford, Mazda, Mitsubishi etc to be releasing new models with turbos then why isn't it good enough for Nissan?

Because Renault are f#ckwits & they can suck on my nuts...

and for GODS SAKES people just PUT YOUR TROLLEYS BACK IN THE TROLLEY BAY! ITS NOT THAT HARD! THIS ISN'T AMERICA, you stupid lazy fools.

Hey Racsov500... Fetch my trolley... Chop Chop 'click of fingers * 2 sound fx'. lol j/k i always put'em in the trolley bay.

dont forget mazda have dropped the turbo/s on the 13b too, so both nissan and mazda (and any others im forgetting)  must see some benefit we don't....

Yeh, they get the benefit of a larger target audience with a family car which means they get more money & we get less performance cars. Its all about family cars these days, & all that means is that its all about making the most profit for some prick owner & shareholders.

Yeh and a Turbo Euro Accord too :) But ya see, these cars Turbo 6, & Turbo Euro wouldnt be coming out if the NA ones hadn’t first been out in the market to see how popular they are & bring in some money. Now releasing a turbo model they make even more money with family goers buying the NA models and people with a little more money & or wanting a performance one then they buy the Turbo model. The car companies cant loose this way! More profits, Brilliant.

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
