i use to want to get an R33 because when i would see one i would stop stair and dream of owning one - they where few and far between but now its like yeah skyline here skyline there.

don't get me wrong i love them still but would prefer an R32 nowdays because there are fewer around , but will probably change when 15yr rule takes effect

anyone can afford an R34 GT-R NUR spec... then you wake up, and then you cry. heheh!

nizmo: yeah i know what you mean, "what does it feel like to drive your dream car?". but the skyline is just a toy to keep myself entertained. what i really want is:

1. porsche 911 turbo

2. bmw m3

3. merc benz e55

(all current models of course!)

except i want the m3 first, even though it's my 2nd fav car (it's the cheapest and will prolly give me the most fun).

what do you guys want to drive when you grow up? :burnout:

*edit: those 3 cars are my favourite but are respective of each other. e.g. i wouldn't get an m5 even though i love them, cos i like the e55 a little more and i don't want 2 very similar cars

Turbo IS200 hehe :)

Black 350Z with all the fruit.

old bald rich playboy guy... well i'm shaving my head, but that is all i'm going to do to fit the part when i get my m3!

i love jap cars, but when when it's 150k for an m3 or 150k for an r34 gt-r, i dunno, i kinda like the luxury... and performance from an N/A engine, such awesome engineering

but horses for courses, each to their own, etc, etc.

its just me :) haha we did have a thread about peoples dream cars and a lot chose the European variety. Maybe i'll change as i get older but for now its just to "wanky" for my liking.

At 14 i wanted a Clubsport as my first car - and luckily saw the light in time and got a turbo 300ZX .... but i still have a bit of "taste" maturing to go i think.

I think the denim cut-off's are for a dukes of hazard theme, ala daisy duke.

The problem for me is that I have chest hair, unlike the furious racing boys who must undergo ritual waxing.

      It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.

      Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.

      Possible option to replace central computer 370 V36

      By Vee37 · Posted

      I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out

      Import insurance in 2025

      I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
