welcome mate!

i swear you should've got a rwd! awd is boring, with a rwd you fly into a corner at high speeds, you can get rid of the understeer with a bit of throttle, then keep it on the limit of grip by balancing the throttle and then it's time to call for a tow truck! :dry:

Welcome mate!! This lot will instill the knowledge of the skyline in your head :)

haha , this is my first manual car so i thought id start out somewhere :P

Nothing to blush about mate, thats a great attitude...You've gotta learn to crawl before you can walk and learn to walk before you can run...Step it up slowly and gain respect for the car and what it can do! Remember with great power comes great responsibility!!! :(

That's just begging for a DEt conversion - baby GTR! (hey Steve) :)

yeah thats right Lee baby GTR ftw

ohh dont get Steve started haha, Full autech conversion Steve? :P

rofl well i have GTR guards to go on just need bonnet front bar reo :( rear pumpage

mate , the rims are the utmost FIRST THING GOING OFF THE CAR

i cant stand the size and offset at all , makes it look like a go cart at the front :(

thats what its getting after new wheels and tint

with an rb30 bottom end of course ;)

Rb30 isnt an easy exercise in the GTS4 as the standard pelnum will foul the bonnet and you will need a adapter plate to fit the sump on

>>Like This One<<

Kid knows his stuff. RB25/30 FTW. Wanna buy some drift teks? :)

sorry Damo unless the previous owner has done the 5stud conversion on it no love for you

Nice buy. Those offset are horrendous - should of gave the previous owner a slap for putting those wheels on such a car lol

how quickly we all forget i was sporting the worst offset on my last rims due to being 4 stud alot of 4 stud rims are made for small cars not skylines so they dont come in that great an offset

haha , tell me about it , afaik they came with it from japan , i sure hope so .

but im selling them to a mate for his car haha, thinkin of gettin some work emotions or lmgt4's

once im out of my little debt :D

has it had the 5stud conversion yet??

HELLO welcome and beware of the some times scary and angry ppl on this forum.....

Only Sh**ing ya there not that bad

WHO YOU CALLING ANGRY ;)

Speaking of manual, anyone do free lessons on here? :D

supply fuel and insurance and i may be convinced or is it convicted

well i highly recommend Boostworx for fitting up the new hubs

will cost you about 3k-4kfor a 5stud conversion that will get you hubs, rotors, callipers and rims and probably tires

i did my 5stud in about 3 stages and bought 2nd hand rims to try and keep the cost down and the callipers and rotors i bought from a dude wrecking his car and the hubs i bought @ 50% off due to a wrecker having a closing down moving sale :P be thrifty and you may get the job done cheaper like me

Hello and welcome, and congrats on getting a GTS4 :P

but can you imagine a non turbo awd would be more fun than a rwd? gtr's though, boring? no! mainly because when i did drive one i felt i had to live up to expectations, it was more intense than joyful! maybe because it wasn't my car but with a rwd even though not as fast as a gtr but knowing you can easily fck up and do fck up is a hardcore adrenalin pumping moment of oh shit i almost hit the tree! that's how i feel anyway, like when i drove a ss with tsc off, maybe not as quick as skyline around the bends but it was exciting because i didn't care about keeping up to the skyline infront of me! i was in my own little world being throttle happy :)

      🚨 Need Advice! Overcharged for Engineering Report 🚨

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Geez, engineers fees have definitely gone up. Mine back 2007 cost me all of $300. Mind you, I had to go back to him a few times to get him to write the correct things on the report after he'd inspected it. Things like wrong exhaust size, wrong wheel sizes, etc etc.

      🚨 Need Advice! Overcharged for Engineering Report 🚨

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Can we see a scan of the original quote? The problem with engineers (and by this, I mean, all engineers across all engineering industries) is that there are "engineers" and there are "engineers" (you'll have to imagine the two different vocal emphases on those two versions of the same word. Engineering is a mindset - your farm kid who spent his life rebuilding the tractor will likely make a good engineer. The farm kid who spent his life taking photos of butterflies.. perhaps not. But on top of that mindset, the modern engineer has to learn how to write so that there is absolutely no way of being misunderstood. Proposals/budget estimates/quotations are one place where this is absolutely vital. You have to delineate your scope of supply with extremely hard boundaries, and anywhere where there is any possibility of not being able to have such a hard boundary, you need to write language that will cover you from scope creep, cost overruns, the inevitable interference of the client or their "engineer", etc etc. Now, if your clients are the BHPs and the Rio Tintos of the world, and similar, then you get good at this. If you are an automotive engineer, pitching work to the great unwashed masses, your skills in this area might not be well developed, because you're only dealing with knuckle draggers trying to get a big block legal in a Torana. And when I say "might not"....I'd suggest there's a better than even chance that any such skills might be completely absent. So, we might be able to look at your quote and see what the opportunities are for rebuttal.
