Can someone please explain what a FLY BY is?

when you beat them from say 0-speed limit, so basically you've beat them...but they fly past at a ridiculous speed when you've already backed off...and in their own small minds, claim the victory.

street racing is bad so dont do it.

Ah ok, I had a idea thats what is was, but I wasnt quite sure.

Yes I agree, street racing is bad and anyone who does it, is a moronic dickhead.

Street racing over here is so much more wankerish though.

I personally find no enjoyment racing some idiot at the traffic lights for about 100 metres, before stopping at another set.

This one time when we were in Newcastle, my old man was driving my VL, anyway we pulled up at the lights next to this Honda S2000, so my old man revved the VL to get the Honda driver's attention, it did so the Honda driver revved his engine as he thought we were going to drag, so the lights turn green and the Honda driver took off like a bat out of hell while we just took off normally pissing ourselves laughing because he f**ked up a gear change and blew out black smoke.

I know its wrong exploiting someone's stupidity, but man it was funny. lol :(

He probably went on a Honda forum and bragged about how cool he was blowing off a N/A VL. :(

the video i watched of street racing and drifting in osaka, the cops over there are pussies. cars drifting on public roads, 15+ cars going nuts with specators everywhere...cops rock up and say wtf are you doing and everyone just leaves...

try that in australia...victoria in particular, and see if the cops are that friendly :(

ahem... sorry to buck the trend here but i thought i might post a picture of an actual sticker

This one's on my much abused rally car... makes for the odd sAfrican American from the scrutineers on race days :D

^I think you forgot the "I wish" part in small letters down the bottom. :)

And just for you "I think your dreamin" because I have driven both VL's & R31 Skylines, as they both share the same power plant.

One thing for sure, if a stock VL & stock R31 were lined up against each other, the R31 would win every time, although the R31 is heavier.

hey so how come the VL turbo (i assume u are talking the stock turbo), was classed as the worlds fastest 4 door production car when it came out?

Where does ANYTHING say TURBO?????????????????

Maybe you should go see OPSM and get your eyes tested.

You want to talk VL Turbo Vs Nissan Turbo, I'm sure there would be plenty to argue the GTR was just a little bit quicker than your precious VL Turbo.

And this is way off topic. You want to have a free for all GMH Vs Nissan or what ever, do it on your own thread.

idoubt frommemory the 1/4 mile time was 14.9 whereas the OLD xy gt falcon was running 14 .4 stock on the 1/4 over 20years b4 the vl was released

In all honesty, I dont care if a stock R31 can beat me. I didnt buy my VL to race stock R31s.

Also what I said was just a bit of a joke, no need to resort to VL vs R31 bullshit. :cheers:

What a load of hypocritical bullshit.

If you take a look on this page, everyone was actually getting back on topic and there was no GMH vs Nissan debate, until you just had to mention VLs vs R31s.

You started the shit, by saying what I just quoted above.

R31 vs VL?

    • Well, the trouble with that ^^ is: The configuration shown is absolutely a 1-way, not a 1.5-way. There is no way that a 1.5-way can be said to offer LSD action only on acceleration. If Nismo cannot get that right, then it is impossible to believe their documentation. That ^ is not a 1.5 way setup. That is a 1-way.   And so now I have allowed all doubts to flourish and have gone back to look at the MotoIQ video. I originally made the mistake of believing him when he said "this is a 1.5-way" at the ~6:10 mark. Because what he did was take the gear assembly out of the 2-way opening and just rotate it one place to the left to drop it into the 1-way opening. When he dropped it in there, the cam was "backwards" compared to the correct orientation shown in all other photos of that config. The flat shold have been facing the 1° ramp side of the opening, not the 55° ramp side. And I thought, "gee that's cute", but I was concerned at the time, when he put the other ring back on, that the gap between the rings looked like it was wider then in the 2-way config. And then I said a lot of things in my long post on Tuesday that could only make sense if the guy from MotoIQ was correct about what he'd done. BUT... I have now done my homework. I grabbed a frame of the video with the 2-way config, and then grabbed another with the "1.5-way" config, snipped out the cam and opening of that frame and just pasted it direct on top of the 2-way config. I scaled it so that the triangular opening was almost exactly the same height in both. AND.... the gap between the plates is wider with the cam installed in the triangualr opening backwards. That is.... it cannot go together that way. There would be massive force on the plates all the time, if you could even reassemble it.  So, My statement on the matter? The Nismo diff is actually only a 2-way and 1-way. There is no 1.5-way option in it, regardless of what they say. Here's a photo of a real 1.5-way ramp opening from Cusco (along with the 1 way option). And the full set of 1 through 2 way options from their racing diff, which is not same-same as what we'd typically be using, but...the cams work the same. A little blurry, but it comes from this Cusco doc, which is quite helpful. AND.... Cusco do in fact do what I suggested would be sensible, which is to have rings that do 1 and 1.5, and 1.5 and 2. Separately.  
    • Welcome Adam. Car looks great!
    • "With a 1.5-WAY, the LSD is effective only during acceleration."
    • Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020
    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now.
