as a matter of fact, R32s have become a new generation of posing cars coz somehow everyone thinks a R32 goes faster than a R33. and thats y they are so popular nowadays.

Skylines in general can serve as posing cars. I mean, there are people who don't want performance at all, there are a few non turbo models with very nice bodykits, rims, interiors etc.

For some reason, Skylines at the moment have more "street cred" than any other car....or as some people describe it, the wank factor. lol

Meh.

What can you do.

I bought my car for various reasons, it isn't a ford or holden, it has potential for much higher power with minor mods, it looks good (to me) and is a well built, reliable car. The same can be said about other imports but I'm extreemly happy with mine.

so when you think about a nice 32 gtr is around about 25-27. if you want something that is atleast decnet.

33's are pretty cheep in this respect.

Hmm 22-25k you could get something decent i reckon.

More than 26k onwards i'd expect a pretty immaculate 32 in all aspects.

Depends on your luck.

yeah they do have a massive "street cred" only because in 2f2f the skyline won and not the supra!!! also alot of people mistake a gts-t for a gtr... i think gtr is what makes the street cred. and word skyline gives the rest of the street cred to the gts-ts

but all and all... every single car theres alot out there!.. well most.. for example i see alot of stock commadores... and i dont give a second look coz it aint a poser or a "racer" etc etc... same with skylines... see alot of stock r33's and i dont give a second look.... but if its got mods... you look coz u know the person likes to mod... so whats under the hood???

or whats up in the hood...

    • All trim back in wired running driving. Few things to follow up on but not far off the return to the road. att.6HN4wP38LTIOISkhA8eACoBFqzfgQMahZPLA8ut0pqE.mp4 att.w2q0ux2PGuqgQTj2Os13cNHQtqcSEcCAhD_CAXy_IQM.mp4
    • The trouble with phone apps is that they really do not know the sensitivity of the mic on each specific phone, whether there is some sort of cover or skin that can change that, etc etc. So the readings off them are not calibrated. You certainly couldn't be sure that you were even within 3 dB. I have the same app on two (actually more than that) different phones/tablets and the readings in the same room at the same time are never the same. I don't mind the apps - they are as useful as a dyno - if you're testing for delta from thing1 to thing2. But not to try to generate some sort of absolute value.
    • I'm gonna use the "Sound Meter" app from the Google Play Store and as close as I can bother to these procedures: 4. TEST METHOD FOR ALL VEHICLES EXCEPT PRE ADR83 IN-SERVICE GOODS VEHICLES AND OMNIBUSES 4.1 Microphone position 4.1.1 The microphone shall be directed towards the orifice of the exhaust outlet and shall be supported by a tripod or similar device not providing excessive acoustic reflection. The general requirements for positioning microphones are shown in the Appendix. 4.1.2 The nominal axis of maximum sensitivity of the microphone shall be substantially parallel to the test site surface and shall make an angle of 45 degrees ±10 degrees with the principal direction of gas flow from the exhaust. 4.1.3 In selecting the 45 degree alignment from the outlet of a motor vehicle fitted with two or more outlets, only the angle resulting in the microphone being farthest from any other outlet must be used. National Stationary Exhaust Noise Test Procedures for In-Service Motor Vehicles Page 3 4.1.4 The height of the microphone above the test site surface shall be equal to that of the orifice of the exhaust outlet ±25mm but shall not be less than 200mm above the test site surface. 4.1.5 The distance of the microphone from the exhaust outlet orifice shall be 500mm±25mm. 4.1.6 [Relates to vertical exhaust outlets] 4.1.7 For vehicles fitted with one exhaust outlet the microphone shall be placed so that the greatest possible distance is achieved between it and the vehicle. 4.1.8 [Relates to multi exhaust outlets] 4.1.9 [Relates to multi exhaust outlets] TLDR: 200mm off ground 45 degree angle relative to exhaust flow 500mm from tailpipe exit. (I probably won't use a tripod) Here's a photo, cause I read the instructions wrong myself.
