parking officers just stare at your car for 2 hours straight in the parking lot.

when you come to renew your parking ticket (so you dont have to pay for the non-free time), they pounce and fine you.

i feel like slapping them silly.!!!! :P

When your missus says "you love that F$%ken car more than me"! (prob been said already)

, and when you return to the car after shopping and think to yourself " what a sexy f$%ken machine"! ( it still excites me to this day).

You know you own a Skyline when you spend 30mins checking vacuum lines before you go for a cruise.

....When the copper that lives in your street warns you that there is a blitz on the weekend.

....When you add up how much you have spent and think fark....then pass out...:)

....When your Dad take your mum for a drive in your Skyline and she gets out and goes "what the f**k do you want a car that fast for?"

...When you smile at what she just said and say "Its only on low boost"

....When the first thing people say when they hop in the car for the first time is "WTF is that?" (PFC commander)

....When people scoff when you say its only a 2.5L till they come for a thrash.

You know you drive a Skyline when your undies are worn and tattered and cant be f**ked buying new ones coz all your money is being spent replacing things that dont need replacing on the Skyline!

your girlfiend complains about sore boobs from bouncing around due to stupidly hard coilovers

in a carpark u park about 30cms away from a brick wall on the drivers side, then climb over and get out the passenger side (to reduce to risk of dents/scratches

Can pick the note of a RB-Guilty

- when SAPOL spends more time under your bonnet than you do.

- get more defects than you get petrol.

- you see more cops in your skyline than when you were driving the 4 banger work horse ten minutes earlier.

- you drive through a car park in 1st gear at 4000rpm just to hear the sweet sound R n B, i mean rb.

- you drive through a car park and every third car you drive pass you'll set the alarm off from the burble of the rb.

- you boost it through a car park to get the flutter sound as you drive past people.

EDIT: These aren't funny but true, for some unfortunate people out there.

Lately it seems....

- you see your drive way empty.

- you constantly check your thread titled: My skyline stolen.

- you see someone else boosting off in your skyline.

    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
