that reasoning makes not sense when coupled with the fact your buying an NA skyline lol

It does make sense... he would only buy a S15 if it was turboed. He didnt say anything about buying a skyline only if it was turboed... Maybe he likes skylines alot so he doenst mind, but doesnt like S15's enough to get a non turbo version.

+1!!!

I'd go non turbo skyline than non turbo s15, however most ppl would go s15 i think

the 2.0 will totally rape the 2.5

lol yes it surely would.

in alot of cases 2.5 doesnt own 2, that is definitely one.

autech S15 has as much power as aus delivered s15s, which in a light shell its alot quicker then a non turbo skyline

I think if I had my time again.. id buy an NA s13 and spends the diffrence on mods.. strip and cage.. ghetto

But i dont think that was what MR XTC wanted to know.. just a passing thought..

swap the S13 with a 240Z and you've got me sold

i would still choose the skyline becuase im not a fan of the sound of a 4 cyl. the skyline engine sounds much better. if i went 4 cyl id only go subaru becuase they sound really nice.

i know its a silly reason but i like to have a nice sounding car that i like i dont care if there is a faster car out there i get something that i like not what everyone likes.

there are other reasons, the autech silvia is fast which is great but i still wouldnt really want it. if i had to have one id go turbo because you have more possibilities for mods than one that already has heaps on it. even though it would be cool to have a really fast N/A car.

      R34 Diff oil

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.

      Short shifter r34

      By Duncan · Posted

      How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box

      Short shifter r34

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Throws on the FS5R30A in most Nissans of this era are actually quite short and direct compared to any remotely modern BMW with the S6-53 transmission. Those things have throws a mile long with rubbery vague everything. Synchro issues combined with a short shifter is just going to break everything even faster.

      R34 Diff oil

      By Duncan · Posted

      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
