WTF is a Cordia?

Anyways, after seeing the amount of time that guy spend on that "thing", makes me think that maybe my (once upon time idea) of building my mum's 2002 Camry into a skyline/other imports killer isn't so much a stupid idea...

my second car was a cordia, bought it new after Wheels pictured it on the front cover with

"15.9 seconds 0-400m!". At the time because I was a kid I thought it ruled, and it was faster than

most other affordable production cars out there even the australian muscle. Unfortunately

it had very poor brakes even considering it only weighed 1100kg (rear drums!), front wheel drive,

flat seats, a rubbery and long throw gear change, no airbags and wasn't made to be crashed at any

speed. You could reach an (indicated) 200kmh.. you didn't rev it much beyond 5800 because it

started to sound very harsh.

The best part about it was the pull it had in 2nd gear around 80kmh. But any model skyline would

have been in another world of handling and performance.

Gentlemen, it's a wind up, surely. For those that have watched a few of his numerous youtube clips, you start to realise he is spending a lot more time provoking people than showing (obviously) what the mighty Cordia is capable of. I commend him, he's the ultimate automobile shit stirrer! :P

ohhh shhiii son... where do i get me one of those LOL, notice the spelling mistakes? lol

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
