Angus' NB

Postby angusis2fast4u » Mon Nov 03, 2014 6:38 pm

I bought an NA6 as a first car and I did a little bit to it.. I got a bit "eh" with it so it kind of went off to the scrap after a part out: (it had Front: 15x8 6ul's and Rear: 15x9 6ul's wrapped in Toyo R888's by the end of it's life but I can't find any photos of it at the moment :| - I really loved the full grip set up :P )

Then after that I decided I needed more power so I got this... it was a pretty clean R32 but sooner or later I realised that I didn't want to spend big money on a R32 which wasn't a GTR. I absolutely loved this thing I just couldn't justify spending all that money on it.

So I went out and test drove a few cars including a few friends car, FC's, NB's, S15's etc... as soon as I drove the NB though I realised I missed my old NA6 but couldn't do without that bit more power which they really did need from factory

So I was set on an NB and after doing further research I decided the NB8B was the way to go as you get a few goodies which would save money long term. anyways here it is:

It's a pretty clean car all round apart from the aftermarket wheels. only 93,000km on it and it's completely stock apart from the wheels and Yellow speed coilovers.

Plans at the moment are to keep it stock for a while and just enjoy it how it is. Then I might go Supercharger or ITB depending how power hungry I get ( I think Ill be going supercharger though as I am already wanting more power and i've only had the car a week!)

anyways thanks, it'll be good to get back into the community and see what i've missed in the last year or so!

Good to see you came back to the dark side!
Your old BC's are still sitting pretty in my na6.
