  1. I love the look of it, lets see if it turns out anything like the concept though.
  2. Hi Steve, how much for one?
  3. What's the difference between the two? (sorry for the noob response) It's not going on my R34, it'd be going on my Pulsar (so it needs to be able to support 200-220kw and 18PSI.) Can't justify a Z32, it'd be overkill.
  4. I'm after an RB25DE or DET AFM in excellent condition. Let me know what you have.
  5. haha yeah, go the '31's. My grey girl was immaculate, I really wish I still had her. So comfy and lounge-like, you could fall alseep very easily driving it It had the most awesome 80's pimp blue interior and buttons galore.
  6. Woot, she's sailing toward Melbourne and should arrive in rougly two weeks. The compliancer has also been chosen, they're less than 2km's from where I live
  7. Like you said, each to their own. I wouldn't expect people to like the N15 more than the R34, this is a Skyline forum after all The N15 was my first car, and I'm extremely attached to it. I bought it stock and poured a lot of time, money and effort into in over the past 5 years. The Pulsar is one of a kind, there's no other SR20DET Auto Pulsars in the country. I could also count the number of SR20DET N15 Sedans in the country on both hands. It's unique, even if it's no-one else's cup of tea. It's quick, it handles well and I'm happy with how it looks. There's nothing ricey about it when it'll be running 7 seconds faster down the quarter mile than it did stock. The R34 could never be 7 seconds faster than it is now
  8. The Pulsar isn't comfortable enough for a daily. It's impractical, loud and obnoxious. I know it's a little backwards but the Pulsar is the occasional fun car, the R34 will be comfortable and more reliable. Hence I'll leave it mostly stock and just enjoy it for what it is. And no to AWD'ing the Pulsar. There's 3 AWD N14's in SA I that I know of (N14 shells with a GTi-R RNN14 chassis and drivetrain.) One's currently for sale. It wasn't done to an N15 in SA. An RNN14 chassis with an N15 shell wouldn't work. I know of the project you're referring to though. A wrecker imported a 1.5L AWD Diesel N15 with the hopes of transplanting the driveline into an ADM Pulsar. They gave up on the idea as the drivetrain was weak as butter...it was designed for a 1.5L Diesel after all. You could have never road registered it either FWD is fun though. I have the best of both worlds. A FWD and a RWD.
  9. Torque steer is just a fact of life in a FWD, if you're prepared for it you can control it. If someone was to jump into my car and floor it, they probably would get the fright of their life and end up making close acquaintance with the nearest car/traffic light :lol: Actually, it's bad but it's not terrible. I have a VLSD and coilovers so they help a little. It's awesome fun to drive, I'm aiming for 180-200fwkw and mid-12's Hence buying the R34 as the comfortable cruiser, the N15 is my project/track/drag/weekend warrior.
  10. Cheers Jenkies. The rims are definitely staying, they're hawt Here's an outdated shot of the engine bay of the Pulsar: And this is why it's currently in the workshop: Disco Potato (GT28RS) with .64 housing, CES split dump pipe, CES Metal Substrate cat, 740cc Nismo injectors, a re-tune and Nismo long wheel studs all getting installed. Full specs are here but they're changing soon with the addition of the above mods: http://members.pulsar.org.au/profiledisplay.php?ID=2397
  11. The car may be leaving Japan on the 6th of February
  12. Nobody?
  13. Hey mate. Woot, another N15 Sedan turbo owner, I don't feel so alone now
  14. As above, I am currently importing an R34 GT-T Sedan that has an aftermarket exhaust which I will need to replace for compliance. I'm looking to borrow a stock exhaust. If anyone can help I would be more than happy to repay you in beer or other beverage of your choice.
  15. Hi all I have finally decided to introduce myself as I've just purchased another Skyline, however this one was more worthy of signing up with My name is Juliette and I live in Croydon, VIC. To say I'm obsessed with cars would be an understatement. After the write-off of my beloved Grey R31 Skyline S2 Ti Sedan last year, and subsequently buying and relying on a nugget of a White R31 Skyline S3 Executive Sedan (which I'll still unfortunately have for a few more months at least) I decided I needed something a bit nicer for times when my N15 Pulsar is off the road, and for daily duties such as driving to work. This is my recently purchased Pearl White R34 Skyline GT-T: It is currently sitting on the docks in Kobe, Japan while everything is being finalised. All going well, I should have it complianced and on the road in the next couple of months. I have ~90x hi-res 5.0mb photos of it, so I'm quite across the car already. It is an auction grade 4; the paint is above average for the age of the car, it'll just need a minor crack in one side skirt fixed and two small indentations were the spoiler was removed and the holes welded fixed - and only because I am fussy. It'll get a good professional polish and the engine bay steam cleaned (this is one area that is filthy.) The interior is immaculate, barely 1 or two marks anywhere. It has just passed 100,000km and has had it's major service with the timing belt changed. I love the wheels and factory bodykit, so they'll stay. It also has a 3" exhaust, turbo timer and DVD player with navigation (unsure if this will work in Australia, maybe someone can shed some light?) It appears to be slightly lowered but I'm not sure. Otherwise, it is completely stock and appears to be in well above average condition for a 10-year old car. I picked it up for a very good price. So Skyline number 3 makes it three white 4-door Nissans that I own, my partner also owns a white S15. We are a white Nissan family haha Here are a couple of photos of my other cars (the specs are linked to above): My N15, my pride and joy: My old R31, RIP: My current nugget R31: I look forward to hanging around. Oh, and I need to borrow a stock R34 Sedan exhaust in VIC if anyone can help
