My old man said the same thing. I brought it and took it round to show him. He was like you didn't!!!! Why would you buy a car with a hair dryer as an engine. I handed him the keys and said I reckon she might change you mind! We proceeded to a road behind the golf course in Sandringham. I said stop here. Now give it to her. We reach top end third and went off the clock. He slowed down to a stop, pulled the keys out, handed them to me with a look of dismay and said it was nice knowing you son. You just became a temporary Victorian driver. lol. Since then he is warming to her more and more I go around. He's always peering out the window at it but trying not to get caught. Stubborn old bugger. I still love taking his GTS for a burl though. They sure do fly and it's a real constant power. I just love the feeling when full boost comes on and hearing people go Jeeeeeeessssuuuussssss!!!! hahahahaha.

I hear ya! Thats what hooked me on the turbo's! It's not just about launching in a straight line. Don't get me wrong there are awesome handling 8's out there but it just seems to me the Jap cars are focused on so much more. Weight distribution, Power output, drivability, handling, stopping the list goes on. And what better car than a GTR to get it all in. I sooooo wanted a GTR but my last car was stolen from the Melbourne Zoo hence why i was 30k short. Bastards I hope they hit a pole and burnt to a crisp. I was only left with 15k hence the GTST. Don't get me wrong. I have got her flying and hopefully going to squeeze a bit more out of her in the next months.

As a young kid I was raised into a family of V8 lovers. My first memories are going sideways in a old torana and progressing through the years hearing my old man jabber on about the wonders of Holden and V8's. I cannot deny that nothing sounds as good as a fully worked 350 Chev on full tilt. The sorta sound that could shake the pillars of heaven. You have to admit it sure gets you attention when a monster V8 tears ass from the lights. About a year ago my Cuz went home to NZ and left me with his R34 GTT for amonth. I have never looked back since! I had never even driven a turbo car before and I was truly converted instantly. The power delivery is f*ckin awesome on a high powered turbo car. The difference in acceleration accompanied by a lighter well handling vehicle makes me think. Why I waisted so many years working Holden V8's that were only really good for a straight line. So now whenever I go to a family function I am always faced with "how's you Jap crap" or "what happens when the rubber band breaks" you know the story i'm sure. What i'd like to hear is how everyone else feels! Are you all I hate v8's and vice versa? I pearsonally still love V8's (well not as much anymore lol) at the same time as falling for my newish 12's bracket machine. How do you feel?

hahahahahahah! Crack up! maybe it's pure brain wash but I still think nothing sounds better than an off it's face V8 at full tilt. The sort of sound that shakes the pillars of heaven. lol I am however a converted man now! To be able to have a car that runs high 12's for less than 15k is unheard of in V8 land. I mean sh!t my old man paid 70+ for his GTS and still can't keep up. I think he's secretly in conversations with HPF and getting the CAM and EMS upgrade. Then it's on. Let the war begin I say.

Here is a pic of my 3rd tat! It's my family tree. The left side represents the females and the right the males. I can try get a closer pic. It also incorporates the gods of wind, fire, earth, water and war. I had the god of war put in because I am in the army.

Deren, Wow. I have just spent about an hour reading this whole thread. You are living my dream. lol. Your attention to detail and commitment to your cause is commendable. Good luck and I hope it all works out for you? Looking forward to seeing more pics!

Cheers for that. That would explain why my car doesn't stall anymore now that I have removed the Blitz BOV. Note taken on board. I was doctrinated V8's like a freakin religion from a young age. This line is my first turbo car to which my old man still gives me greif about daily. lol. I don''t mind cause now I can beat his VE GTS so I say suck sh!t old man. Thanks for the advice. It's funny how many dudes on here like to bag out any question that may sounds stupid to them. Really enjoying being part of the turbo scene though. So much more technical than V8's. lol.

Yeah. How much you want for it? I can even swap for some cash and a blitz BOV if you want.

I want one of the HKS SSQV BOV's Willing to buy but also willing to trade. I'll give you a set of GTT R34 Rims! Do have other stuff to trade. Full sound system also. PM Me. Here's a pic of the rims

Dude, Just call a bearing and Industrial supplier and give them your car details. They are cheap as from the supplier. I used to work at Bearing and Industrial supplies in Melbourne. (03 9587 8282). They'll sort you out or at least point you in the right direction. They are cheap off the right people.

hahahahahahahahahaa Nice one. Nah mate not after that type of noise. lol.

Wow, Sorry for asking a question Mate. Why the hell would I want to look like a wanka? I just like that noise better than your standard BOV noise! It's not like i'm runnen around with neon's, fluffy dice and lacookeracha air horns. lol. ATM I've taken the BOV off but have been told I should put one back on as to prolong the life of my turbo. If you've got some better suggestions i'd love to hear them. Although the Mafia is normaly tight lipped. Well in most occasions.

Sorry dude but hills Area? What city. lol

F*Cken pricks man! Some people are need the living snot punched out of them. Good luck dude.

cheers

OMG dude. It's like dangling a f*cking beer in front of Barney Gumble. lol I need these wheels! They are the exact ones i've been chasing up. I only hope they are still around by the end of March (commission payments quaterly) How many sets do you have? Not that I want 2 sets just to gague on how long they'll be around for. Will the fit an R33 GTST with stadard calipers?

Cant see that being an issue dude! PM me

Yeah bad ha! The time it hit 130 or so was on the free way and I accelerated in 5th from 80 to boost. I shouldv'e changed down first. I dropped the oil and changed the filter which has done her a treat. She has not gone over 25 now and thats over a 2 hour drive. I'm going to get her re-tuned in the next few days. $ just been a bit tight which sux. Not to mention the missus who's cracking it over the neglect on her civic while all the $ pour into the skyline. eh i'm like a drug addict. lol cheers for the advice.

Man I'm in shock about this freak. He says his front wheel drive car makes his front end nearly lift off the ground. G thats different. This guy has some serious issues. I have met dudes like him though. Theres a dude i know who drives a Soarer TT. He keeps saying how he put an exaust on and it's pushing 260rwkw and does a 12.2. Man I hate that dude. I keep saying come out front and run me but as usual awww the diff's playing up la la la f**ken la.

That looks hot dude! You know where and how much it cost him?

What a mad idea for a thread! Yeah those rail lines have to be the best pic on this thread by far! oh and the car mid air is close second. Nice storm pic to over the Harbour Bridge! So what's this weeks theme?

Hey, Lately (more so than ever) I have noticed my nock sensor on the Apexi power FC has been going through the roof if I accelerate in like 5th. It jumped up to 133 the other day on the freeway. I nearly spat chips. I can go as nuts as I like and the nock never really gets over 30 but if I try take off in second (say you were just about to pull up and the lights turn green) and give it some gas, sure enough the nock goes f**ken crazy. My odo is at around 94k so I'm thinking she may need a 100k service a bit earlier. Obviously a bit much stress on the engne. Any ideas?

All well and good! However if you have a FMIC and a pod the pod must have a heat sheild. Or else Nixon's little piglets will jump all over you! Damn coppers! I'm sick of their sh!t.

You gotta love guys you do a favour for than get smart cause it was late. Every one want's something for free don't they! I think it also looks like a great mod! I'm going to look into it a bit more. Doesn't look to difficult. Hope your finger gets better! You are a Dr anyway so you should be fine. lol
