Some people are complete f**kwits. Unfortunately some of these people band together and start clubs and forums.

I remember the first Cruise for a Cure I went on (back when it was still the LS1 Forums arranging it). During the presentations, there were a couple of condescending remarks about the "slow 4 cylinder" imports. Nothing nasty, since they weren't unhappy that we showed up, but still that misplaced superiority complex guys cars that just discovered IRS across the range seem to have.

All I could think was, "We might be slow, but we weren't the pussies that stayed on the Princes Highway instead of going through the Nasho as the cruise was originally advertised".

There are plenty of decent Supra owners out there. Unfortunately, they get lost in the noise. Just like the guys on ns.com - there are some decent Silvia owners there, but you'd never know it from all the children chucking their toys out of the pram.

"it would be better off if your friend didn't come with us.

there are guys here that don't like skylines or their drivers".

I don't know, but I didn't think that was very nice. On sau cruises, cars of all kinds are welcomed.

The 1 & 2jz are good, but come on, you too would be jealous of an RB engine.

Actually had this situation a while ago with a mate and his R34.

"I might rock up to the cruise"

"Erm, their are only supras on the cruise, no other cars"

"Oh ok, I guess thats kinda cool, we let any POS on our cruises. It would be nice to just cruise with skylines :P"

Guys Im a member of the nsw supra club and just wanted to clear something up.

I didnt attend that particular cruise but I know it was organised by the nsw supra club,the reason you probably werent welcome was because they firstly didnt know and if you act like a dick on the road you would have given the club a bad rap with the cops.

The club has rules about how members act while on an official club cruise so any bad behavior would reflect on the club and leave us prone to more attention fom the police.

Yeah its true some bag skylines on the forums but 99% of the time its just in jest.You guys are afterall on the darkside :P but I do hate gtst's with GTR badges on them (unless they have rb26's)

To the member who was rude to you,Im sure was only speaking for their own opinion because most of us dont care who cruises with us as long as they don't carry on like idiots.Some members attended a cruise with the silvia club and some of them started drifting and doing burnouts in a carpark in a residential area,this is what we dont want.

Cheers

I really want to just apologise for the dickhead that spoke to you like that, 97r33gtst-typeM. I have a feeling I mite know who it was and I can tell you now, no one in the club likes him, but we try not to descriminate. :O Officially it was a NSW Supra Club cruise and so only Supras were invited, but that being said, the organisers would not 'officially' tell you to piss off. It's just some of the n00bie club wankers seem to take it upon themselves to spout club policy when they have no clue how we operate. Unofficially we would have been happy to have you join us. The majority of us bought Supras because we're enthusiests and so like all types of performance cars. Unfortunately there are a vocal few that bought them because they were in some famous movies once. :D

It is in my opinion that 20% of all Supra owners are nothing more than pretencious showpony f**ktards. It's just a shame that they're more visible than the other 80% who are actually nice people. ;)

Maybe this little incident will open the negotiations on a Skyline/Supra joint cruise. I'd definately be up for it. :(

A joint cruise is a possibility

    • On 12th June, the mechanic could not figure out what the issue was, but the car seems to be flooding with fuel. He was suspecting the tune, thus referred me to a tuner. Although the tuner is not familiar with Nistune, last Monday (30th June), he came over to try and re-map it. Despite the tuner trying to completely stop fuel, it kept sounding like it was pushing fuel. Tuner ended up suspecting either the ECU or Injectors. I do not believe the ECU or Nistune is the issue, as the Nistune software reads and communicates properly. Today, I removed the (new) injectors to see if they are clogged or leaking. Surprisingly enough, after those 3 days of driving, injectors 2 and 3 look very blocked. You can see the difference in the picture. I blew a bit on 3, that is why it doesn't look as clogged as 2. I am still unsure if this is what is causing the no start issue, but I am now feeling that I may have bought the injectors and Nistune without the need to do so, as the problem seems to be coming from somewhere else.  
    • haha this shit box doesn't drink coolant, for now       Let me guess, they make heaps of power, use the car for straight line driving and don't care about noise
    • They’re so great that I know of someone pulling one out to go back to a sequential 
    • Hello everyone. I've recently started the research into R34 GTR front bits and running into eye watering prices. On the plus site it looks like some places make 'replacement' fender liners for these cars. At eye-watering-but-less than stock prices. I also noticed there's plenty of diffuser options available too. What I would like to know is if my following assumptions are correct. 1) The OEM guard liners are actually only 'half' the liner. They go together with the OEM brake vents which are a separate item which looks to be quite a large 'panel' that is part of the liner. The GTR bumper has bolt holes along the front. I assume the ones in the vent correspond to the ones the OEM liner does not have (circled?)   2) The V-Spec front diffuser supplants the brake ducts in the above item. I am assuming these still work with the guard liners as there's no alternate part that I'm aware of. I don't see how they go together, so I'm making the assumption that they have to, somehow. I know the center splash guard is different on the V-Spec (and is the price of the damn diffuser alone). How does the liner interact with this? 3) There's alternate front diffusers that do away with it all. Annoyingly, a lot of the clones and CF different ones... have no brake ducts on them. I like the idea of them though. My brakes get hot on the track. These alternate diffusers are a lot cheaper than plastic splash guards. I'm assuming you don't have to/aren't supposed to remove guard liners to run a diffuser. I suspect that quite a few people actually do not run the guard liner because with a front undertray you're getting a lot of 'splash' guarding anyway, and most people remove liners given they're probably running a pretty aggressive setup with a diffuser at the front. It would also be nice to know if anyone has ever run the 'reproduction' guard liners and know whether the fitment is OEM quality or "OEM Quality". Example: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/356254671561 https://carbonetics.net/products/nissan-skyline-r34-gtr-plastic-front-wheel-arch-set Is this knowledge still around?
    • Really, effort is pretty low. You hand fistfuls of cash over to someone else and pick it up when done...   And at least this shitbox isn't drinking coolant right?
