My baby performed well, suspension setup and swaybars seemed really nice and planted :) The AD08R's were just amazing, I had no clue that cars could turn corners at that much speed and I still didn't even feel like I was pushing them at all :|

I'm having the same issue when logging in, every time gives me an error page after signing in..?

I think it's to do with the domain change recently. Change your bookmarks to www.sau.com.au instead of www.skylinesaustralia.com and it should fix it.

just for you HSV is putting the GTS supercharged motor in a maloo....

few tweeks and there you go

Whats the retail on one of those? *inb4 more than you can afford pal*

Need to finance it against my mortgage

Still don't quite understand some 34 GTR owners, buying a 90s car for 45k sometimes just doesn't compute.

I mean if you can afford it outright, sure do what ever the hell you want I guess.. otherwise just go the r33

I used to think this way, but when you consider what else is around for the same money and the quality of it (or lack thereof), they aren't a bad buy if you can forget how old it is. Think it's more a case of the other cars in the Skyline range being undervalued for what they are. You get a lot more car than $6k worth when you buy a 33 GTS-T for example. Mine is bulletproof, or has been anyway, at nearly 20 years old. Meanwhile, people with brand new Volkswagens that don't look any good, are slower and breaking in 6 months...

New cars suck so much ass that I'll prolly buy 90s and early 00s cars for the rest of my life

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
