LOL im all for not hooning on public streets and driving responsibly and yes i am a p plater who drives an NA r34 but police will always pull skylines over even if everyone was driving like a nanna.

its because they are in fast and furious and all kinds of illegal street racing games which has given the skyline a infamous name (famous for the wrong reasons).

plus if i were a cop and i heard a car that was noisy even with a slight note i'd flash my lights at you too lol. however the thing that does annoy me are commodores that do burnouts and we get the blame for it.

my 2c worth go to a skid pan or a SAU day ive heard that they're alot of fun although im not inclined to go because my NA 34 would get flamed to the max lol

Cheers.

Not true, I've owned my 32 gtr for just over 1 year, ive been pulled over once, by a lovely copper at 5AM when i was on the way to work. He didn't say a thing, simple bretho.

Mind you, i don't drive like a twat, Give it a little squirt here and there, nothing excessive.

I also had my P Plates displayed for the first 2 months i owned the vehicle.

Some people just have TOO much self pride never to do a burnout or a skid? Bull shit. If you didn't do it in a skyline, you've done it in something else. Why you are all so uptight and anal about it, is beyond me.

I'm not condoning burnouts but seriously, wow. You have a car that can rip burn outs pretty easily. You have a car that comes with the reputation of being a sporty, fast, fun car yet you drive like vaginas?

Kudos to you. People spend HUGE money on cars every day, just because you spent 10k on your 10k car does not mean you need to drive it like a granny in a carrera GT. If he enjoys doing a burn out, let him do it, let him cop the aftermath of it all. He asked for advice, what he does with it is not on your shoulders.

If you want to cheat, roll back a little, neutral, 5krpm drop first, limiter, second, limiter, 3rd and sit. Soft suspension, thinner tyres, will be easier.

Ive only done two burnouts that I can recall. 7 years of driving. If anyone here gives me shit for it, you can f**k your self.

Yeah, this is how my mechanic makes sure he's installed the clutch properly.

What the f**k? That is a joke right? When you install a fresh clutch on fresh flywheel and fresh pressure plate, there is no clutch material on either surface and dumping the clutch on second will really have a high chance of riding the clutch and burning it before you've even driven on it. Sure after 250 - 500km bed in, give it a dump but not right off the bat.

Well for a cheap thrill why not try getting some crappy FWD car and sliding a couple Food trays under the rear wheels. Pull the handbrake on hard , nail the accelerator and presto ...Instant drift horse.....Well at least for a minute or two until the trays wear through

      Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i.

      Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.

      Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.

      Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.

      It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
