I don't have one yet but my dad doesn't mind and my mum is clueless about cars and hopefully things stay that way.

Having said that I would still get one if my parents were against it. :thumbsup::ermm:

Rhys, tell your mum you need a turbo to attract a member of the opposite gender so you can provide said grandkids :(

I totally agree. U need to the turbo to get the girls. All depends on what type of girls u want to attract!

Anyway, how old r u? Maybe a bit young to have kids? Im 24 and i think im way too young and imature to have kids.

I'm going on 34 so I did'nt exactly need my parents approval but some sort of positive note from them kind of made me feel better.

Myself: "Some Skylines are turbos"

My Dad: "You dont need a turbo in a car that small"

Once my R33 is bought my Dad has fun outrunning speeding b double trucks on the way home from Adelaide so I got my positive note eventually :P

I'm 18, but I still live at home. Therefore my parents can kick the car out of the garage (they're threatened that) and I HATE parking it outside, no matter where it is!

hmm. think you'll need more than a hand :D

BAHAHAHA!!! Good point Eric.

Karl... I'm going to have about $500 in my account soon. $1200 painting the new kit, $800 on tyres, $2500 on insurance... My account is drained :D Gonna stop (hopefully) spending money on my car, and put it up for sale when I have $5k. Then with the money I get from the sale, I'll be able to afford a GTS-t! And all the shit that comes with it :banana:

Anyone want to buy my R33 GTS for $160k so I can afford an R35??? Come on, you know you want to!

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      I'm thinking that this is such a small part of the problem that you could easily forego the vac pump and just achieve 90% of what you need, which is keeping the gate open when off boost. It's not as if there are not already techniques to keep a gate fully closed under boost. After all, you have boost. Just use a wastegate actuator that will allow you to apply the boost on the appropriate side, just like every external gate out there.

      Heres another fitment photo. redrilled the pattern to 5x112, and threw my audi´s rims on. had to touch the upper control arms with grinder, because the "sharp corner" was sticking about 2-3mm on the tire path. i have the "fender lip" mostly cut off, otherwise these (too) would contact with it. 20x9.5 ET25 rear    265/30 20x8.5 ET20 front    255/30 they are temporary, and look too big for the chassis. searching for 19s to it.

      Background: my BMW 225i hatchback (rebodied MINI/X1) came with 3x RE003 and 1x Goodyear Asymmetric something. The RE003 roared and slid around, the Goodyear side was quiet and grippy. Definitely my car was thrashed before it got sent to dealers. My brother also got RE003 all round on his old VA WRX STI, I wasn't impressed with them, car was loud so can't comment on noise. Anyway, Hankook stopped making/updating V12 Evo2. So bought S1 Evo3 runflats. Great daily duties tyre and not that harsh ride. Tyre reviews site/youtube rated them as best stopping in the rain and I believe them. Next set, Goodyear Asymmetric 5 non-RFT. It beat PS4 in tests and is like $100 cheaper, so put them on. Great tyre, more grip then S1 Evo3 but a tad noisier as expected, still rocking them. Next set I am looking to go runflats, probably the new Hankook Evo. Although the new Pirelli PZ5 did well in tyrereviews test. Or go Goodyear Asymmetric 6 which was top tyre last year. The V12 Evo2 on my gen5 Liberty GT wagon did great in cold condition (drove to snowy mountains for a day so my husky can feel his ancestor's roots). Super impressive performance for $120 each lol. Never skimp on tyres, brakes, suspension. There's old pics of my R31's crappy random brake pads bending in the caliper at Oran Park track day somewhere around here. Anyway, my 2 cents.
