      There is. But it is extremely limited and only for people with a shit-ton of money. In Japan you pay taxes for the Litres in your engine. That's why japan got those 660cc turbo and city cars. A muscle car with a 4.5l + is too expensive for most enthusiasts. But they are very enthusiastic about American cars indeed. Take a look ath the 70s japanese cars. Especially the celica. Looks like a pony car.
      Donut media made a video about that.. I believe xD

      skylinedude951 in 2 1/2 years ive put 25k+ miles on mine and occasionally deliver mail out of it. Delivering mail is hell on the clutch, brakes and cooling system cause its like stop and go traffic for 6 hours and the only issues ive had is the cold start valve got stuck open causing a high idle (free fix) and my speedo cable broke which was like $80

    I have a special tune configured for my r33 that uses less gas /less boost than my agressive tune. not a lot of people do this because its basically trimming fuel close to knock. its fine as long as the rpm is limted low. i get 600-650km on a full tank. to put in perspective i use to get 350 max on stock ecu with bolt ons but im sure i wouldve been at 450-500 on stock everything. its def not fun but its easy to switch set up as long as you do it right. i bet i go from 220whp to 390whp (last max dyno is 420whp). i dont push my car. my engine has 234k on the clock series 1 btw...

  • @Rguy6900
    @Rguy6900 6 лет назад +9

    I used one exactly like this as my daily driver for 3 years before I purchased something that wasn't as mean on the gas consumption. Really reliable and fun as a daily tbh... Personally however, using this baby as a daily took most of the fun away from the entire experience and to me that's the major downside (Unless of course this isn't the 'funnest' car you own). Now that I use it when I feel to and not because I have to, I'm back to full jizz behind the wheel. Anyhow it's really up to the individual after all.. Good work bro, keep it up and keep her clean.

    The skyline R32 is my favorite car and I was looking for a GTS-T simply because its way cheaper than a GTR. I understand that most mechanics in the US don't know these cars and I'd have to take it to a shop to fix it and it's not cheap. How can I learn to replace and fix parts on that car myself? what are good things I should look for like articles or videos? Please I'm dying to save up and get that car but I need to know things about it first.

      Depends on what engine you have, and the size rims. With the RB20DET(manual) you may have trouble taking off from a stop if you're inexperienced due to the lack of torque. Non-turbo might be worse lol.
      With 15" wheels, watch out entering and leaving corners in the rain, with just a tiny bit of speed it WILL get sideways.
      Also, the stock fuel tanks tend to have rust with age, and copper spark plugs tend to work better.
      Once you make sure to maintain it, I'd say yeah.
