Don't own one yet, but I'm 19 and come off my P's early next year. I just got my construction card last night and I'll be starting a job with a handsome salary within the month. I'm going to get a loan for a 34 gt-t as soon as I can.

The reason I don't have a non turbo 34 is the money, but if I really wanted it I could have saved. The main reason is the non turbo thing, I don't see the point of buying an N/A 34. It's supposed to be a performance car, if it doesn't have the performance to match I'm not keen.

Can't wait to get to the track when I get it :D

If you're making good coin just save your money and pay cash/cheque like I did. Why pay off a loan when you'll have a lump sum later? It will give you time to find the right vehicle also.

I'm 19 and have a 33 gts.

Yes it's gutless but I've had the car for over a year and its still a great car to drive.

I'm not really fazed about the power.

I just like the look of the car.

Its just something different to all the commodores and falcons running around.

    • You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.
    • Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?
    • yess of course im not using 2nd hand parts from my spare engine, but the place where i live is hard to find parts for the RB20DET ,but for the RB20E is everywhere including new ones and a lot cheaper ,because for the RB20DET you have to order it overseas to get one and it cost a lot of money 3x the price to be exact. so i ask this topic because if i can use the new ones but for RB20E is it compatible or not. if not im screwed haha, not totally screwed but i have to save a lot of money first before i can begin repairing my engine, thanks for the information before.
    • Unless my sensor just died, was only a couple months old, I strongly believe it didn't. How can I test it? I never mentioned it being 20:1+?
    • Well, you wouldn't use 2nd hand bearings out of another engine anyway....so just buying the proper bearings is obviously what you're going to do. The crankshaft would be common. The conrods might be common. There is essentially nothing else you would be able to use.
