I know some of us have our preference of either a holden over a ford or a ford over a holden but still, our main preference is our imports.

Yeah gotta love the whale races.....I mean Bathurst.

When are they gonna let some real cars back in?

What i find funny, is people with absolute shitttboxes trying to race you.

I was in the city a while ago and a little black barina pulled up next to me. Standard with rims.

We were at a set of red lights and he starts revving the tits off the barina...im thinking WTF?

Lights go green, he plants it.....again wtf?

Im with a few of my mates now so we felt like a laugh. I pull up next to him, he looks at me and opens his window. I go "CUUZZZZ Wat you running??? Seat Coverrrsss??

Him: Its faster than your Jap crap......

Us: Pissing ourselves laughing so hard that we didnt even leave the lights when they went green.

Poor c**t. Are people really that stupid?

i had a couple of guys in a mint looking WH statesman which sounded to me to have the distinct sound of a blown v8(think ive seen it in a mates street machines) drive past me down at sufers yelling "get a real car". i wasnt cut or anything, i was quite proud my car got their attention so much they thought they needed to comment. i mean if i was driving a ford laser or something like that they wouldnt have said anything. they weren't just a couple of teens either, looked to be at late 20's early 30's which goes to show its not just the super young with something silly to say.

Hahaha yeah actually that reminds me of some bogans in an old (HG? HK?) Kingswood, saying "we'd race you if it had another 4 cylinders". When I asked him why he wouldn't race anything with less than 10 cylinders and said that a V10 would be a tight fit under the bonnet, he obviously ran out of webbed fingers to count on and replied with something about morons that buy 4 cylinder cars. Given his obvious lack of intelligence I figured blunt and obvious was the best bet here, and just said "it's a 6 cylinder you f*cking retard, go back to school". He got abusive but eventually left when he realised we'd all started ignoring him some time ago.

Oooh another one... I was standing next to a mate's car (oldish MX6) while he was filling up at a servo, some tards came up in an old V8 Kingswood (HQ-HZ) and laughed at us, saying the MX6 was crap because it had 4 cylinders. I told them "I have a stock non-turbo 4 cylinder that will hand you your arse" - they all scoffed and one of them said "there isn't a 4 cylinder on the planet that will beat a V8". So I walked over to my bike and started putting on my helmet... they said something about bikes not counting and drove away. Owned lol

I get this all the time because my car looks stock as a rock, its funny sometimes, but most of the time its just stupid.

When I driving home one night I had stopped at a set of lights, a ute pulled up next to me, guys in the passengers seats started making "whhhoooosh, psssssh , stupid rice burner shit " sounds and laughing at me. ( my car looks stock even had stock rims on it at the time ) this went on for about 2-3mins I was just sitting there not saying anything stewing up untill the lights went green. took off 1st slow as normal ( twin plate clutch :S ) 2nd gear dumped it right beside his window. They heard the lovely sound of a RB26 + T78 + external wastegate and screamer on full niose right in thier faces.

Next set of lights pulled up beside each other again........... didnt hear a peep out of the idiots.

I think you will find the laugh and ignore is the bets method...

I have been around drag cars since I was 6 and it is ONLY the people with no mechanical respect that make these comments...either that or they are not the sharpest tools in the shed or envious to say the least...

I have quite a few mates with 10 second V8's and I still love the sound and still build them, and these is respect amongst us all of each others cars...

Those who do not have respect don't deserve any car...ecept maybe a black barina with mags....

    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers
