Give me an example r43_skyline.

my direct quotes are examples.

with highly educated parents like yours. i really dont know why they would allow u to be a delivery boy and take away your time when u already have a job. dont u go to school ? dont u study ? i would have expected education to be the no.1 priority since your parents are highly educated.

My Job at maccas isnt even worth having. I do the deliveries for money, an because I love to drive. Yes I go to school as previously stated, no I dont really study, Im only in YR10. Maybe next yr.....Anyways, I really am sick of arguaing this point. Can we PLEASE just move on? I can understand what you're saying, but its my life and I will live it as I choose. All I want is some advice on the GOLF R32.

Shit i would hate to live in a house and ask how it was payed for and u say. "My mummy and daddy paid for it" Then im sorry, but i would guarantee many laughs from people...

You reckon that people laugh in Jamie Packer or Lachlan Murdoch, whose daddies pretty much set them up with everything? They even work for daddy's business in some cushy management job (wonder if they ever started "at the bottom" making coffee, doing the filing, or whatever).

And in Jamie's case, his first attempt at doing his own thing was heavily funded by the old man and when it crashed and burned his old man bailed him out, leaving others out to dry.

I'm glad that my olds couldn't afford to buy me some shit hot car when I was young (I probably would have killed myself, and never learnt to drive properly) but if my parents could afford to pay for my house (without leaving themselves destitute) I'd grab that opportunity with both hands. People can feel free to laugh.....while they're blowing away their income on rent while struggling to come up with a deposit.

They can keep laughing when they finally get their first home and I'm on my first or second investment property, or maybe a diversified stock portfolio, and they can keep laughing in their lovely job when I've retired young and live off the income from the various investments.

Or maybe I decide to spend more of it while I'm young on things I'll enjoy. The independence high ground doesn't put food on the table, nor does it get you in to the R34 Z-Tune I'd be driving to the 5 star resorts I'm staying at during my holidays up to Far North Queensland or the NSW / Victorian snow fields.

Good sum up! :werd:

got to agreed with that sounds good doesnt it? although not necessarily a happy life....

Happiness is just a mindset. You get the idle rich just as much as the contented poor.

Reminds me of that story about the two kids. One is positive and one is negative. They're put in to a room full of horse shit, and given a shovel.

The negative kid throws down the shovel, and starts whinging about the smell, how cheap the plastic shovel is, and just sitting in the corner having a sulk.

The positive one is having a ball, going nuts with the shovel attacking the pile of dung with a big grin on his face.

When they ask him why he's so happy, he replies back with, "With all this poo around, there has to be a horse around here somewhere!"

I doubt I'd be ultra happy in that life, since I'd always want more, but I can tell you now that I'd be happier than living the life I have now, without the pair of houses and my limited edition, factory 500hp, Skyline GT-R.

All I want is some advice on the GOLF R32.

Forum: VWvortex R32 Golf, its American tho....

do you really want an R32 Golf?, or is it just a car your parents hit with a dart?, 2 cars that compare to the R32 Golf are the Renault Clio Sport and the Barina SRi, both a lot cheaper. And also the Focus ST70.

not a bit little thing.. bit porky at 1477kg for a car of that size.. but I am sure it does go like a dart.. speaking of darts.. turbo kit would make it very interesting.. but the CR of 11 (I assume to get 179kw) probably not the best to turbo charge.

anyways enuff arguing y dont u just prove us wrong by standing next to both your cars in the same photo? one hand on each car :D

geez if my parents put money aside for me id be driving a r34 gtr not a golf rofl... *that ryhmes* lolz

but then again my dad runs an insurance company and i didnt ask for shit off him, infact i bought my own skyline working at a servo part time and saving and getting a loan, id rather have the pleasure of saying i worked hard for my stuff rather than saying "daddy bought it for me" its better to be independent....

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
