Have you considered, I don't know, checking the web site of the government department that looks after licensing?

This is not what SAU looks like.

If you can't work out how to Google an answer to what cars you can't buy and what options you don't have, then maybe you shouldn't have a car with "power". There's a reason why they don't want certain people driving certain cars, and from what I've read of your posts so far you're it.

Get a honda, say a prelude VTi-R. You could most likely find one for under 10 grand but in my honest opinion, get a working, reliable car with that 10 grand and wait until you get off your p's and then get any car you want. Everyone else has waited, I'm sure you can too.

Good choice! If UR in Sydney (but it looks like it could be Melb), you can have a try of my VTiR 4th Gen (although it ain't 4 sale). They're going for about $8500 now; + or -.

Great Car

Great sound when V-Tec hits

Great cornering with 4WS

Hard to find

Hard to break

Hey guys ,

IM JUST ABOUT TO SELL MY R33 SKYLINE.

ITS A BLACK 1995 NON-TURBO COUPE WITH A FEW EXTRAS

so have a budget of 10k and on p-plates.

if your in to skylines you could consider the following.

R31 skyline- Aussie built RB30E has pertental and a grate car for a newby driver IMO.

R32 skyline non turbo- RB25DE bloody hard to find or put a RB30E in it.

R33 skyline non tubro- i dont know much about them

R34 skyline non turbo- may be out of your price range by a few k but still a great car

i know most about the 31 since i owned one for 4 year.

avg price 2-4k for a decent stock example about 5-6k for a moded one.

has a 3L eng and can easerly get some decent power (i had 120rwkw after apx $3000 spent of performance mods in n/a form after a stock 70rwkw).

can find manuals

heaps of performance parts avalerble.

then you would have any n/a 4cyl car or 6cyl car

i.e

corrola

falcon

best bet jump on carsales do a search with your buget for all n/a cars with a max CC of 3500 (3.5L) i think thats the biggest you can go.

this will then give you a list of all current cars that are up to your buget that are non turbo/supercharged and have aeng capacity no bigger then 3.5L

hope this helps

The only problem with buying non turbo 32/33/34's, is that they're a tad on the gutless side. (no offence to the non-turbo boys, I'm sure you've all got your reasons why you own one.)

The kid next to you in the SSS or civic or integra will hand your ass back to you in a second.

A good P plate friendly car list whilst having some enjoyment while driving:

R31 if you like a RWD basher

Pulsar SSS

Integra Type R or Civic Type R

VTiR Prelude

MX-5

Set them up to handle.

Someone close this thread. This topic has been done to death

Keymaker, I would prefer to drive a gutless skyline than a r31 or mx5 i would prefer to walk

Like I said dude:

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
