Also want to be taken for a spin :D

On another note, after going from shagged 275 NT05s to 245 Dunlops I've gone from traction in 2nd on good roads to 'lols' but I don't feel like I'm going to spin out to a tree in the wet which is nice.

Inb4 flogged out Falcon up for sale at ridiculous price.

:P

lulz.

she needs some work yet...... i need lower rear springs, front and rear sway bars, scotty to make me all manner of bracings, and some freaking tyres.

maybe lsd...

Acid will not help you drive a car

If you wanted a 4wd micra, probably a better bet to start off with something like the Familia GT-R and then mod that... they're little rockets when set up right. 154kW for something that weighs about 1000kg, not too shabby as a starting point.

but they break and break hard. gearboxes and diffs are weak as. few parts drifting around from old projects but people usually stick to them for rally and keep them tame.

generally not too common because ugly + heavy. and those that are still around have been flogged by GTR wannabes. still fetch a decent price since purists will start to restore them. they had heaps of nismo optionals etc. (for a small JDM car anyway)

Up late on a Friday night with nothing to do? Ever been scammed by a guy named Jayson from the Blackburn/Burwood area? Haven't heard all about the massive scammer who has been operating here for years?

Why don't you read this thread from page two onwards, where you can -

- See forum member Jayson F, or gtr2nv, known by a variety of other usernames including jet31 (banned on this very forum) not defend himself ONCE against numerous posts linking him to all his other scamming usernames for a period of 7 years!

- Hear from other users who he has stolen from, and then sold the stolen goods on the very same forum!

- Read about how the post office seems to lose some items for which he can't produce receipts!
- Learn about how when some items arrive, they're thrashed or internally cracked!

On the subject of converting to AWD

Should I buy a gtr with my write off money or is the ol gtt/gtst considered on par around the track nowadays when set up well?

Buy back wreck, buy one of the myriad of sub 1k rolling shells or sub 5k gtst's and swap everything in. Spend the rest of insurance cash on more fruit.

Really actually buy Grants 33, huge KSports, Teins, RA3-DT's, tidy interior. Bodywork is not so tidy so it'll be less upsetting when you bend it again :P

    • Solid update, got all the downforces now.  You going to be running aus time attack again? love the jacking solution, spend the dollars on what makes it go fast is best way.
    • Back in January, I noticed my car felt noticeably weak. I had the injectors cleaned, which seemed to solve the problem -- until now. Recently, the car suddenly lost power again while driving. Suspecting the injectors, I brought it to the mechanic. He recommended replacing them entirely, saying the current ones were getting unreliable and fiddly to work with. I could not find a direct replacement for my current injectors. The closest match I found were 440cc injectors. This led me to look into the possibility of upgrading -- and of course, that would mean remapping the ECU. From my research I found: The OEM Part numbers are 16600-72L20 and 16600-72L21 Both the RB20DE and RB20DET use the same 270cc injectors. There are much better options out there over the old OEM injectors. Nistune could be a viable tuning option. While the RB20DE isn’t explicitly listed on their site, the ECU is essentially the same as the GTS-T version - just with a different map. The ECU code on mine is listed as supported. One concern is finding a tuner who works with Nistune. Aftermarket ECU like Haltech and Link, but this would be the most expensive choice (and possibly overkill for a mostly stock RB20DE) I admit that I am very new to the tuning scene and would appreciate any insight or recommendations regarding this.   These are some SAU links where I got some of my information from for reference: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/380324-rb20de-injectors/ https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477396-factory-270cc-injectors/  
    • The inspectors are not forensic by any means but if you forge your documents and/or badgings on vehicle parts and are found out, the consequences are just far bigger than if you just run illegal parts. And their job quite literally is to cross reference what parts you got installed and what your papers say you got. Something as silly as your suspension being 1mm too low will fail you. Nonetheless I asked if someone knew the damn pipe and I certainly did not ask for smartassery or underhanded comments, no idea why you need to be told this. Great way to waste both our time.
    • As useful as you explaining what forgery is... But then again, I wasn't aware your inspectors were also forensic experts and inspect nameplates on each component to confirm everything is original. They must inspect roughly 3 cars a year at that rate. You're right though, my comment doesn't help you in anyway, so I'll go talk to my wall now. Cheers. 
    • Say that to the guy that is going to fail your inspection or tow your car for illegal exhaust modifications. If you have anything else useful to say, please go tell your wall.
