I have not driven 350rwhp car Ive been in 1 with 430rwhp..

just to clarify..the 500rwhp is a part time...I'm choosing ECU with 2 map memory to switch back...500 is only for dyno..just the figures..normal driving, I'd stick with 350...

the efficiency curve for 500rwhp with a GT35 is crap, I think boost kicks in about 4000-4500 rpm....

no boost

no boost

no boost

no boost

suddenly

kabaam...

bang..crash and die..

I voted for 500rwhp because I value performance over bling. My old 33 made a touch over 400rwhp but looked like a lowered stocker with cooler, tinted windows and 17s.

As long as the car is tidy, give me stock body/interior over white leather, neons, stereo, massive wings and the like. My personal preference is for understated before an enormous body kit.

I had 350rwhp & now it's been rebuilt with forgies, gtr rods etc so it's a bit of both. That said I don't really want a sound system & better rims aren't a necessity for me.

All go no show for me (except under teh bonnet)

Yeah im with the go for 500rwhp

even though i have a 300rwhp car, but its gettin tuned to go to 350rwhp

next week.

Just depends what you like doing.

Like cruising around listenin to ya tunes fairly loud, and still being able to go pretty quick.

Or, have a car that can pull 11's down the quarter, have a feeling that you could beat anyone on the street that annoys you.

M preference is 500rwhp, just sounds like a bigger archievement, then nice wheels,nice interior and a sound system.

All comes back to, are you trying to pull chicks, or trying to pull yaself from sinking into the seat.

sound system haha what a f**king joke? what idiot spends 10,000 on a sound system (im sorry but it is just stupid), maybe so other pedestrians can listen to ur rap/dance music? rims are good once you have the power to get it all down to the ground. i would hands down go the rebuild for 500rwhp. without a doubt.

If i could afford this 10k on a rebuild would be the least of my problems. Altogether now 427 cubic inches ;)

18" wheels and bright leather interiors are good for some, but if its going to be a cool show/cruiser then this is where its at ;)

Imports are good for cheap performance, if you want cool you should have stolen your grandfathers car ;)

      Import insurance in 2025

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      And that's a massive problem, because deadshits will deadshit and give you false details. At least in these days of mobile cameraphones, it is trivial to take photos of any ID they are carrying at the same time as the 300 photo extensive documentation of the state of the vehicles that I recommend even for minor incidents. And you get photos of the person's face, any visible tatoos, etc etc, while you're at it. Then you try to avoid mentioning that you're fully capable of making explosives of various power levels and will wreck their shit if you are forced to hunt them down.

      Import insurance in 2025

      No, I don't remember the exact reasoning (was 20 years ago!) but the cops didn't end up supplying it to us either. Actually my mother went through a similar thing recently where she was hit when stationary, flustered and didn't get address (she got plate details, name, phone and insurance company, but not address). Person who hit her blocked her number and their insurance company (naturally) would not provide any details. Her insurance company also required her to pay the at fault premium because she did not have the address, cops did not help as it is a minor civil matter (they said their only course was if the other driver had left the scene of the accident without providing any details). She only ended up getting that refunded because they happened to be insured with Suncorp and she was with APIA so same company owners. For some reason the address is critical in insurance companies recovering money from the at fault party

      Coc or nox of nissan skyline

      If you're driving something like an R32 through to R34, no chance of meeting Euro4. Euro4 came out in 2006, and car manufacturers back then were complaining how hard it would be to meet those regulations. Not a chance a vehicle 10 years earlier is going to be compliant.

      I presume it would take more than just slapping a big modern catalyst on the exhaust? It's interesting though, looking at the old sales brochures and listings it does not mention anything about emissions. No one cared.

      Yeh nice, looks like their part of keep it reet? Will have to swing past. I'd much prefer someone actually look at my car and custom make a part, then get a generic part online and hope it works.
