Maybe... but they're just a 4cyl Camry in drag (unless you're talking about the first front-drive Celica SX liftback, they're excellent but getting on now).

At least the 4AGE Corolla's have some pedigree and racing history.

And don't go bringing up Millen Pikes Peak racing Celicas! :glare:

a second series mazda mx6 would fit the bill too, fuel is reasonable, spare parts can be exxy, but it is sort of sporty and not too many around, a lot of them are starting to reach there useby date though

I know its not a jap car.

But have u thought of a TX3 FF non turbo.

My mate had one and sold it for 6k i think and it was a good little car.

But if your so hell bent on Jap car then get a pulsar. N14 SSS. got some balls if u need it and the looks can be added.

But its not worth putting up on a skyline forum what we suggest. Everything will be RB powered and well I have no problem with that.

Oh whats that ohhhhhhhhh my car starting up gargle gargle gargle. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

nuremburg? i thought it was nurburgring???? well i could be wrong but i'm pretty sure the r34 nur was tuned just for the nurburgring!

yeah pulsars are good to! the n15 1.6 litres go alright!

Corolla SX - an awesome boy racers car. no chance of wrapping it around a pole. More economical than a 2.2 Celica and its much more zippy and easy to park.

FWD celicas are for girls. My apprentice has one and he reckons it uses too much fuel.

Swift GTi or proton m21

      Yeah since those first 2 replies I actually went and put some 98 in it and tbf it's already doing much better than the 95 (which is weird and makes my inner tinfoil hat wearer think the 95 was a crap batch), getting 8ish around town. Again, wonder if it takes a while to stabilize if the fuel is changed a couple of times. I swear cars used to just either run "well" or "s**t* in my 20s, none of this fuel optimisation business haha

      R33 headlight relay conversion?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Any number of different ways. Have the coils draw sufficient current to provide contact wetting. Use different contacts in the switch, either by material or design, better suited to the low current drawn by a relay coil. Etc.

      Hmm, how does the R34 manage to have headlight relays then without getting excessive carbon buildup on the headlight switch contacts?

      Not R7R. Meant to type R&R, obviously enough.

      R33 headlight relay conversion?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Bugger "making it look stock". I put one conventional internally fused Hella relay behind each globe. I just pulled the plugs off the back of the globes and built new loom segments with male and female plug parts to match up to the original loom and the globe, and used the original power wires to each globe coming from the switch through the original loom plug to trigger the relays. Ran a big fat (also separately fused) power wire across the front of the car to feed all the relays. It's as ugly as f**k, but it is wedged down between the headlight and battery on the RHS and the airbox and headlight on the LHS, and no-one ever looks in my engine bay, and on the odd occasion that they do I simply give no f**ks for what they think. Fully reversible - not that you'd ever want to. For f**k's sake. It's a Skyline. They made million of the bloody things. We've been crashing them into roadside furniture for 30 years now. There is a negative side effect to putting relays on the headlights. The coil current is too little to properly clean the contacts in the switches and they get blacked up and you have to open them up every couple of years and clean them manually. I have 25 years of experience on this point.
