I have a feeling the neo engines are better then the old non neo ones ie from a r32, 33 cos well my car has 206 kilowatts stock (flywheel) and about 330 nm, and a stock r33 has 178 or so series 2 (series 1 had less) and 280 or so nm of torque. So what are you smoking?

for insurance it really depends, i heard someone insure their s15 at under $1000 per year

hey dude, still selling ur car? seriously i dunno why but u seem like a car enthusiast yet u say ur car is collecting garage dust? how could that be???

still selling, but looks like it will go VERY soon.

it's my weekend car, but me & my gf plan to buy a house in near future, both of us are now working part time during weekend

i try to drive it as much as i can, but only able to add 3000km to the clock from feb till now ;)

not worth to keep it

fair enough but you will not be able to even buy a flat if your just working partime.

a house is a big investment, need to sacrifice a lot.

The Skyline is definitely cheaper to insure than the s15.

There is no definate on this IMHO. It all depends on age, driver rating/history, insurer and obviously mods to the car...a lot of factors affect insurance premiums...from my experiences...premiums drop a lot when you hit 30 :P providing u had a clean driving history...full comp on my 99 GTT is $950 with justcars...

In my experience the import has always been cheaper than it's locally delivered alternatives. My R33 is $1.5k cheaper to insurance than a S14A would have been (hence the decision to go the R33)

Both are great cars and are hard to compare running costs as it depends on your driving style and condition of the car you purchase.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
