Honestly I rate my driving 2 on your chart. I have been out on the track at oran park a few times and had a ball, I have excelent car control although I have yet to full master the skyline (as far as pushed it to its full potential)

I think you're rating system is a little skewed...

Just because you can do EC in 2:02 (which really isn't anything to brag about), and Wakefield in 1:17 (*really* nothing to brag about), it doesn't mean you're a good driver at all...

Lap times are very dependant on the car... I'd say nearly everyone would be able to pull off a sub two minute EC lap in my car, just purely because of the power...

Out of 5, I'd rate myself a 3.

aye yay yay, can never please everyone.

your more than welcome to structure a scale of your own that makes more sense to you.

I agree it's not the best rating system but hey it's not exactly the bureau of statistics!

Having stepped out of a stationwagon and into a Skyline I felt that my driving skills increased tenfold but they DON'T.

Overconfidence is something that I know I've been guilty of on occasions, where you pull something off and then think to yourself, "This could have ended in tears!"

Rating oneself is hard to do so all I will say is that I can reverse park OK and I hit the Natio with gusto when I'm there.

One day I'll go to the track and find out just how poor my skills are!

I abstain :P:)

I'm a reasonable driver, I understand car control and can push the limits once I'm familiar with a car. I'm no Fangio, even though an undercover cop likened me to the great man once.

I only made it to 0 yesterday, 1.22.03 at wakefield!

edit: I think I may have posted these out of order...

Hey duncan, is the skyline difficult to throw around wakefield??

I would've thought a skyline would be doing mid teens?

What mods do you have?

Or were you just BSing about your time :)

EDIT: oh...you mean 1.03.22??? ;)

lol! the 1.22.03 was in the daewoo, on road tyres.

my skyline best is 1.11, stock except 9psi boost. I think that's the club record still.

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
