hey guys, after stupidly speeding, and geting cought, i coped 6 months, i get my Ps back this week, i was contemplating geting a non turbo r34 skyline (sue to p plater restrictions) but now have decided to go for the cheaper, but better all rounder (initial cost, insurance, performance, fuel economy) 5speed SSS n15 pulsar.. do u guys think this is a better choice? i mean i would totally prefer a skyline, but non turbo skyline? dunno doesnt appeal to me that much and after asking a few ppl on this forum, seems to be the same advice from everyone, DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON A NON TURBO R34.. so ye ive taken this advice.. what are your views on the n15 SSS?

now i just wanted to aska another quick question.. my license is currently restricted to automatic.. if i drove the 5speed SSS and happend to get cought what is the penalty? and after the suspension do i get my 4 points back?.. i will be going to getr my manual license soon, its just that im extreamly busy and just need to delay geting them for about 4 weeks.. im sure i could go undetected for 4 weeks... but ye anyhelp would be greatly appriciated guys ,

my advise mate stick to the guide lines of your licence or you will end up in a world of trouble. If you arnt licenced to drive a vehicle then you would most likely void your insurance and thats not worth the risk.

Be on your best behaviour you admit what you did was stupid so dont make another silly decision potentially throwing you back in the same shitty situation.

oooh for fu ks sake seriously what is evryones problem.. i need a fu king car and im gonna get one, im sick of people saying save your money and wait three years.. would you wait three years?????????????? sorry to blow up, but im sick of it, i went from thinking i was gonna buy a 20 000grand non turbo skyline, to saving 10gs and buying a 10grand pulsar

when you get your license back - you will have no points at all for the remainder of being on your p's. so 1 slip up and your off for another 3 months . you get 6 points when u reach your black license , where most people will have 12 . ... better play it safe .

as for buying a car - why ask other's opinions , at the end of the day its your money and your the one who is going to have to live with what you buy . so buy what makes you happy mate.

I see why you lost your license.

I see why you lost your license.

Amen..

I dont think they meant dont get a car at all.. I think what was meant was get the cheaper option and save that extra money you are saving by getting a pulsar..

Pretty simple?

easy noobs, at the end of the day it's his life, his car..

All he asked was for some advice (dis-advantages/advantages) so take it easy

In my opinion mate, the SSS is just as fast as a r34 n/a. It's great on fuel, and around the same to maintaine.. if it makes you happy buy the sss and save 10g's for a mad car later on... Do what makes you happy because it's your car.

Why ask for peoples opinion if your just gunna blow up?

Get whatever you want, no-one really cares what you get.

i get the shits cos everytime i ask peopel opinions on a car they give me the same bullsh it save your money get sumthing cheaper.. SSS is cheap enough.. i bet of i said i wana get a 500 dollar vl commodore hunk of sh it again, people would say save your money and buy something cheaper for now..it just gets on my nerves,

I wouldn't call buying an NA R34 a waste of money...at the end of the day its what you can afford and what you like. To me buying a SSS pulsar would be an even bigger waste of money...but thts just my opinion.

hey dave.... personally id much rather the N/A 34 ... a) its a much nicer car.... 2) it says skyline on the back .... 3) i would neva b seen in ne thing other than a rwd car.... 4) your going to have it for 3 years...

5)... which one would pull the chicks? LOL

na but thats my 2 cents... i have had my license taken off me for 1 years... coming up on 1 year now i am on green ps.. just got another 33... i was going to be restricted to the conditions but got out of it as i owned a prohibited vehicle before the laws were introduced...

get mine back febuary....

only disadvantages of driving a 34 over a SSS after just getting your license back:

COPS dont look at if the gt badge is blue or red.... (turbo or non turbo for noobs out there lol)

COPS look at the words skyline and then their next reaction is to flick the pretty lights switch and if theyre feeling randy theyl even throw in some funny noises.

lol

also drivin a rwd car i would b tempted to spin the wheels every now and again specially in the wet...

fwd car i wouldnt thrash personally cos i went through 3 cv joints in my last car and it costed me alot lmao...

thats my 2 cents...

thanks steve for being one of the only people to give me a decent answer..cheers mate

well i ahvent bought anything yet so i take everyones opinion into account, just hate it when ppl tell me to save my money for 3 years.. its not possible for me to work, go outy and got to uni with no car, public transport just doesnt always cut it..and i love cars so id like somthing nice.. but ye sorry to ppl i blew up at before

yeh man being restricted to non turbo really killed me like i was wrongly accused for racing someone.. couldnt do crap about it with a speeding record / burnout.... had my 33 impounded.... lost license for 1year for no reason... wasnt even speeding and he called it racing...bad coppa..

luckily i am not going to be restricted anymore...

3 years is a long time..

if i was restricted...id simply buy an r32 or something and get an m3 engine put in ...lol :P plenty of power...

i drive said sh*tbox and its really not that bad, although its probly not what you want. N15 seems reasonable, how about a V8 soarer, they're legal as far as i know for P platers, have all the luxuries you want. its a luxury car, so its less tempting to speed in it, its just a cruiser.

not legal man.... check the rta site.... download the restricted list...

theyre a smooth cruising car... but have similar stats of a truck.... best luxury for money though.

    • Only thing I'd add...is on recommendation from a good diff shop, I've used mineral oil in my diff including the race car for years. The synthetics can be too slippery and glaze the gears
    • 75W90 GL5 is fine. If you aren't sure about the type get one with LSD additive. 
    • Because you're effectively rushing the shift and forcing it to go in - with greater leverage against parts that don't _want_ to go together. Short shift = forcing the gear in harder. Also Redline Heavy Shockproof actively says not to use it in anything with Synchros. Well, it says "not recommended" which is basically as far as anyone will ever say in a product statement to "Do not use" Generally the Redline makes the gearbox feel great... until it fails faster. https://www.redlineoil.com/heavy-shockproof
    • 99.9% of them are viscous diffs. The 0.01% are helicals. They were only option-able in the series 2, as well. I have redline heavy shockproof in my helical. It seems... fine? I don't think anyone is ever going to know until something really breaks and at that point I'm not sure anyone will blame the oil. I just chose it because it's extremely heavy duty and my car will see not-road-legal duty for it. I've also had sadness with various diff oils in the past sweating out everywhere and/or other 'fun' things, with clutch diffs. Given you have a 1.5 way on the shelf, I'd not even bother with the diff in the car and just get to tinkering with it. I would spend the $90 on oil toward the labor of someone else putting the diff in if time poor even lol.
    • I believe mine is helical and not clutch type. During drifting one wheel was spining as if it was open diff so bought kazz 1.5 way and has sat on my shelf for the past 5 years as I want to learn shiming process and do it myself   in meantime thought I change the diff oil hence post here. So any 75-90?   i am pretty sure r34 are helical not clutch lsd as standard . That is gtt ones
