Well these P-platers driving GTRs are getting themselves into big trouble once the cops pull them over. If i'm not mistaken, they are not allowed to drive such cars in their Ps.

I don't think they are allowed to drive porsches or AMGs either. Saw one P plater in an SL55,  i reckon is her old man's car. The P's look like they just got stuck on. It was not placed properly.  :lol:

beh im a P-plater with my gtr and it sucks. 24 yr old on ur P's is a bit depressing.

Will be off them soon

I think the best thing i saw someone on their P's was a 996 carrerra (garden variety)

i dont consider P-platers in GTRs to be rich coz its only a 18-35k car, unless u're talkin about a GTR34.

Best car i've possibly seen on P plates are as follows:

1996 ferrari 360, 1993 ferrari testerossa (spelling), 1993 R32 GTR, Audi TT, 8 series BMW and a brand new porsche GT3.

These were all driven by my mate on a day to day basis, his father used to just let take which ever he felt like. However not all these cars were his, only the R32 GTR and the Audi TT were his. But still, for a 17 year old it was a heaps good effort. He used to bring the ferrari to school when he was in yr12 on the odd day.. was pretty amazing to see:D

Really? Damn - I worked (part time/casual) from when I was 15 years old for 2 years, saved everything I earned. I managed to save $6000 (this was back in 1990 mind you) but who the hell would give a the other 30K+ loan to a 17 yr old with a job at KMart/Coles/Hungrys, because lets face it, that's about your average job at that age.

If I saw ANY P-plater driving around in anything more expensive than a 30K+, I would easily assume s/he's getting help from mummy & daddy.

lol yeh, if u put it that way i'd have to agree. but lets face it, any guy can work at coles and buy a 30grand car, these are the average. above average are the ones that think smart and earn smart.

hrmmm, its good to stereotype ppl. but its also good to get the facts right before going up to someone and yell out, hey daddys boy, howz the car going. if that statement was false, be prepared to be yell at. but i understand where you're coming from.

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
