Do you still have the big wing on it? I've only ever had one person try to drag me, and that was a VN last week!! Chop was dished of course. A couple have tried to run me on the freeway....chop dished. Then I remain at the limit, look over as they pass & they are looking straight ahead. :worship:

All I suggest is don't bite. :spank: Drags aren't for the street.

nah mate removed the T wing hahaha u know i figured by the time i mean ahah i know its illegal but yea umm....this honda wants to bOp me aye and i was thinking of standing it up hahah and not even goin to appear lol i mean i only drive my GTS to get around....danno what he does with his family car hahah but he seems to really want to give me some chopping....but yea all i heard was his one was a vtech and has a air filter...and only what i have is just air filter and muffler hahah i wreckon it'd be a close run or something if it does happen?

but i danno hahah maybe hes been watching tooooo much fast and furious hahah i like drift bible aye but its so hard to get the stuff right in my car when its my turn lol

Maybe because you drive a skyline and most people assume you would want to race since the image a line gives off nowdays (damn politicians). Yeah drags are for the strips but we'll all be lying if we say we dont give another car a go at the lights once in a while huh (not that I encourage street racing now kids). Dont underestimate a honda (or any other marks) cause when the VTEC kicks in YOOO, you'll be shock at the outcome haha. My stock lude can take out a stock 33gts with minor mods and its a tip haha but not by alot.

Due to the hunger for power and a more aggrasive look Im upgrading to a 34 but still will be keepin the lude for time being. Also be prepare to get more hoons trying to drag you after FF3 comes out that will definately pump them up haha.

Well vtec is not all that the american boys make them sound like if its a bloody T88 turbo or something. Maybe its because they havent driven a line before since they cant import them in the states =). As for FF3 the movies gonna suck but we're all gonna go see it anyways when it comes out ahha.

Nice to see you removed the wing, this is often the cause for people wanting to race skylines. Although you may lose around 5hp - try also removing any visable asian style air fresheners. I find that having one of these makes people want to race me ALL the time.

i find the best way to respond to any retard in some slow bucket of crap is to do some of the following

. drive dead on the speed limit and not bother (boring)

or

. chop them, but on and off the throttle so you play with them like a cat and mouse, usually waving and or blowing kisses or similar. i did that once and when i pulled up at the lights the dude thought hed be funny and tell me my car broken cos it was stuttering. when i told him what i was really doing, he got emo and closed his window. god its too easy sometimes.

another tip wait to a grap in traffic, then block them in. not only does it save you racing, it also makes them angry. so you win times 2!

these days i just let them go past me, its not worth my car and license to make some moron look like a... moron. end of the day i know a lancer /accent/ excel/ vn v6/ magna etc is not going to be worth my expensive bp 98.

There was this chick in driving along Morley last night thinking she was a rally driver. She tried to take on a soarer and then pulled up next to me revving her engine. When I laughed she stuck her finger up at me and cut me off and was playing with traffic all the way to her street.

i had some guy in a soarer trying to instigate a drag (down here in melbourne). Lights turned green, he did a bit of a wheel spin, and took off. I just carried on about my business as per usual. Dont see the point in risking it. In fact, the worst i have done is testing out the turbo on the freeway entry ramp (which in itself was done when there were no other cars near me).

    • For these last 7 years of ownership, I've always had to use a small scissor jack under one of the front tow hooks to raise the front just enough so my low-profile jack fits under to reach my subframe jack point. I'm beginning to get annoyed of always having to do this. Are there any lower low-profile jacks that fit under the gtr lip on a dropped car?
    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
