I love dr30's

[Ghostrider]

I can only relate a story that came from the guy I bought my car off.

One day in sunny down town Campbelltown NSW (sorry Ben) a guy was standing beside the car for over an hour and when Brian got back to the car this guy said to him, "I know what it is, but it's different, but I can't see where" and when it was pointed out that it only had 2 doors, the guy sheepishly left the scene.

But I love the idea, the fact that all these dumass bastards that think they're the proverbial expert, (and we all know what an expert is) when it comes to cars.

I think it's quite amusing and look forward to the day when I can stick it up some of these young so called experts.

Ben, yeah thank christ mine doesnt have the stickers

[DR JOSH]

I was once told by a local nissan wrecker that my car was a DR30 but it must have had a HR31 front end transplant because r30's never came out with that style of front end, as soon as they said that I just walked out the store.

Pretty much every dickhead that comments on my car calls it a bloody R31.  If I'd wanted something softer I would have bought a GTS or GTS-X, but I went for the harder edged '30, but no-one seems to see the difference

Don't worry mate, I see the difference. One thing I get with my r31 is people coming up to my car complimenting it, then saying to me "this has got the VL engine in it doesn't it?" so I just turn on the car and let the wastegate open. It get's on my nerves after the first 20 times

Ben, yeah thank christ mine doesnt have the stickers

:Oops:

haha, I'm a bit of a ricer at heart. I've got the 24 valve ceramic turbo on the side of mine.

i'll be putting the gts-t badges on mine at some point just to confuse people even more, half the car is r32 anyway.

Which half Matt???

The RB20DET is from an R32, but the gearbox is identical to that in an HR31 and everything else is either a/mkt or DR/HR30.

Do you have a problem with the stock GT badges?

[Boof]

Whats broken now?

Nothing's broken on it, i just want it to be painted/straight again, and i was getting quotes to get my ecu/injectors/pump installed and ecu tuned and quotes on fixing my clutch....I hate cars

Josh can i ask what workshop that was son?????

Sorry guys, but this is the only sticker on the side of my car and the GT guard badges.

How much confusion can this create?

engine, brakes some s-13 bits with that too,master cylinder, booster, radiator and i think the tail sharft thats enough for me. Even though its a hr30, the dr front means i have the RS badges on mine :headspin:

[discopotato03]

All mine has is the two RS badges and the DOHC RS Turbo on the boot lid . Adequate . For eleven big ones you can have the keys .

Primarily as it was a stock option and will comply with cams regs as is not adjustable.
