People Who Give Us A Bad Name


Recommended Posts

earlier today i was at the lights on magil rd turning right onto payneham rd when a maroon r33 came around the corner. As it saw me it hit the gas and ran straight up the backside of a stationary commodore that was in the right lane to turn right. I couldnt see how much damage was down but once both drivers got out of their respective cars the owner of the commodore looked very pissed off and rightly so. Now if i told you that i had never tried to 'show off' in my car, especially to a fellow skyline driver i would be lying however this is just plain stupidity and gives us all a bad name, especially in this case seeing the traffic was very congested due to the norwood food and wine festival only a few hundred metres away. If the owner of the skyline reads this im not trying to have a go at you mate, this could have well happened to anyone and we all have lapses in concentration from time to time but i think with a little bit of common sense incidents like this can be avoided. Anyways thats my story :P

Yeah i have seen some people do some stupid stuff had a guy in a 32GTS(-t?) follow me yesterday he seemed to be a bit carless going around a few of the corners and round abouts near the woodcroft college area.

I spose hes gonna need a good panel beater...... YEp its wankas like that, that make the revenue raisers hate us even more....

wasnt me... but if that person wants to offload any maroon bodykit items from the crashed line (ie rear bumper and after some 400R side skerts) id be willing to take them off their hands.

"One less ugly coloured skyline off the road =P"

Ugly colour -- what the -- its closer to red than most other colours.. so that means it goes faster!!!

Why is there so much aggression between fellow skyliners, ive read some posts that are less than friendly. Were all ment to be enthusiests, just some people have different oppinions.

My opinion is that i was not a very sensible driver as a youngster but since i have grown and matured so has my driving. Now when a fellow driver tries to drag me from the lights i just ignore and watch them blow away knowing that more often than not there one corner away from being caught. In saying that not all older people are mature, i had some idiot the other day the pulled a handbrakie right infront of me on a crowded road and took of in the other direction only to pull over about 300m up the road. The stupid thing about it though was that he was not alone, there were to girls with him so he is not only endangering his own life but others aswell. Some people really need to learn the hard way, and unlucky for this driver he did perhaps he will thinik about it before he tries it again.

well said hr32.

actions talk, bullshit walks.

thats one thing that f**ks me off on this site. People preach about driving sensible(which is the good thing to do). Im sure they do some dumb shit through the week and refrain from posting it on this site dont they? They just fill in time pretending to be noble and responsible and write someone else off!

get a life idiots!

Mate i do some dumb shit yeh......BUT i don't go and post it up on here, so yeh i do refrain for posting it up here because i don't think everyone needs to know the stupid shite i do!

If you have been written off by someone for something stupid that you have done/posted, then it's probably your own fault, most people on here just wanna keep it sensible so others that look on here can't give US or ME or YOU or any other import/worked car a BADDER name than we already have!

good call

They make for some great Beery Pub stories, but!

Fact is this - Every driver out there on the road is unsafe at some point in time whilst driving and 'in control' of their vehicle,

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
