Hi, im a new to skylines Australia, I am very interested in buying a Nissan skyline, now I just wanted to ask a few questions first. I am bound buy the bs NSW p plater rules, (which btw have proven no help what so ever in preventing provisional license accidents-report in newspaper). So I can not drive turbo or V8, witch is a real shame because I am definitely a fan of the turbo skylines...
But because of the fact I love the look of skylines alot, I have been thinking or purchasing a n/a 2.5litre R34 skyline... My main concern is weather to go for a standard auto all wheel drive model, or a semi auto tip-tronic rwd version. Im not interested in getting a manual at the moment.
Can anyone who has actually owned or driven either of these please tell me your opinions on these cars, power wise, economy, comfort etc...
I have recently lost my license for stupid speeding offenses, which will make me start my time on my red Ps again, which means a good 3 years until I get my full license and can drive a turbo car... so im not going to be speeding much anymore..
um I will be interested in a turbo when I do get my full license, are these n/a skylines easy enough to convert to turbo, weather it be full transplant or turbo conversion on the existing engine, or are there to many hassles relating to this, and a cheaper option being selling the n/a and buying a standard turbo?
Finally I was just wondering about the tip tronic, in the semi auto rwd, do they have some sort of limiter which automatically changes gears after a certain amount of rpm? or do they allow the user to red line and change when needed?
So ye any help would be greatly appreciated guys
