Anyone Feel Left Out?

start /rant

Was wondering if anybody feels discriminated against just cause your Skyline is NA. I kinda feel it a bit.

Haven't been on a dyno day yet, still waiting till it's $40-$50 again. But it's gonna be pretty awkward cause all the fully sickers are gonna expect 99999kW just cause it's a Skyline just to be heart broken cause it's NA. Also the community and it shows on this forum too; it's like if your Skyline isn't turboed it isn't considered a Skyline or something, people don't wanna help you as much, all the comments revolve around 'get a turbo' etc. Maybe i'm just biatching but you know it's true lol.

just ignore them.. if you like your skyline, whether its na or turbo, isnt that all that matters? Its their problem, not yours.

well im from canada and i understand you guys in aus have stricter driving/vehicle compliance rules down there so my comment may not really apply but up here if your going to get a skyline there is absolutly no reason to get a n/a one seeing as how the price difference for importing one is almost non existant. there is no reason or us to import a n/a because you no longer have the perormance factor. might as well buy a comparable gutless 2L domestic vehicle which has the steeringwheel on the proper side for our roads (we drive left hand drive) for less money and substancially cheaper/more available parts. up here if you have n/a you get looked down upon because it just doesnt make sense. i understand my comment may not apply because of p platers i believe there called(learners licence holders???) who cannot drive modiied/turbo'd cars?

Because its true - best bang for your buck modification for an N/A Skyline is to go down the turbo route... anything else while keeping it N/A is going to cost you lots of money for very little gain.

Unless your restricted by P plate laws in which case I dont think your allowed to modify the engine at all anyways regardless if its N/A.

if your Skyline isn't turboed it isn't considered a REAL Skyline

fixed

Yeah it's annoying. Some people just like n/a more damnit.

You think that's bad..try owning a v35 skyline - the discrimination is worse lol (was my previous ride).

You can be an enthusiast and own a gogomobile

You can be an enthusiast and own a 911 turbo

The losers are the ones who...

i) are condescending at others and their cars

ii) don't know how to treat a car (-yes even if it's a 911)

iii) spend $$$ on grog/drugs instead of upgrading their car

iv) are jealous and discriminate half-cocked

v) try and pretend to be something they're not

An enthusiast can be proud of his/her car!

I'd rather have a NA skyline than any sort of commonwhore, except maybe a VL which at least had the right engine in it (but it's turbo so not an option for P platers).

Dunno what you're whining about though. My first car was a Charade, and you think an NA skyline is a sorry option? You should harden up a bit, princess.

[C33Burgerman]

^^^ agreed

my next car will be an NA

we dont have P plates over here (new zealand) so turbos are no restriction (yet) so every second person has or had one

hardly see any NA tuned cars

I don't feel left out.. Now all you N/A's go stand in that corner.. And you V series go stand in that corner.. And those volvo drivers...

Hey mate, everyone has to start somewhere.

I started out in a Gemini then went to a Niki 650.

Now i have a boonger R31 and a C33 Laurel. My missus has a Stagea.

Point is, you gotta work up in the cars, no point (in my case) owning a Niki 650 then jumping into a R33 and almost killing yourself with the added 250kw extra power than the 3kw Niki.

If i could get myself a N/A R32 and sell my R31 i would in a heart beat!

i only don't like the NA drivers who somehow think that their car is going to flog every commodore out there. they need to wake up and smell the bullshit

[Munkyb0y]

^ yeah but you dont like anyone

n/a ... turbo ....v8 ....whatever the fuck it is. doesnt matter. it's your car. you like it. it's all good.
