Haha I can relate. I told my neighbours to go f**k herself cuz she thought I was speeding in out court (loud exhaust) was actually the neighbours mum. He is a cop. Comes to my door to talk to me and whilst he was talking told him to get off my f**king property and slammed the door in his face :D

Wow great job at being civil. Perhaps if you were friendly and explained the reasoning for why she might have thought you were speeding when you weren't might have gotten you somewhere.

If you talk to a cop like that then he will go out of his way to mess with you.

And if they do that they are not behaving like a Police Officer should be and they get in trouble like an unfortunate Constable up my way :yes:

when you know the servo guy's name and he notices if you don't show for a week :D

I work in a servo and this happens all the time. I have plenty of regulars I see either daily or a few times a week. But none of them are skylines!

Seriously, I see Skylines drive past all the time, and none of you come visit me :P

what servo though haha

-you know that downforce actually helps

-you spending ages thinking/searching for ridiculously sized rims (18x14s)

-you avoid cops at all cost (well maybe that's a victorian thing)

-you plan trips are where BP station are.

-you plan ridiculous modifications to the car, research parts that you ll never buy or be able to afford.

You know you drive a skyline when:

-you have developed a highly sensitive "skyline sense" that tingles the back of your neck and makes you feel paranoid whenever you are within a few hundred meters of police presence and/or camera's, far before any of your mates even realise there are cops to their amazement

-Your car has a strange power which effects the minds of a small portion of australias population. Causing them to momentarily slip into a rage of swearing and making obscene gestures at your car, whilst you drive at 5kph under the limit. Otherwise friendly looking old ladies seem to be the most susceptible to this mysterious power.

-parking your car near a group of 30-40yr old blokes that are standing around chatting, has the uncanny effect of steering their conversation in the direction of bathurst in the early 90's.

Both already said:

You know you drive a Skyline when you see another Skyline on the road and feel compelled to tell everyone else within earshot.

You drive your $30,000 350Z as a daily because you don't want to wreck your $8000 R32 GTST

"..you drive it slowly on the road just to admire your ride on the reflection of the glassy-buildings, and you tell yourself "Damn..that's hot!" lol"

Guilty!

when you see stove plate lights in the distance at night and go to catch up to see if it's a skyline, only to find out it's not a skyline lolz.

when you wash and chammy your car, and you inspect the paintwork meticulously for any chips, bugs and tar, then spend hours fixing, polishing.

when you have the local tow truck on speed dial!

when the local auto parts shops know you on a first name basis.

when you just have to have the skyline under cover when parked.

when your suspension is harder than the V8 supercars(a twig feels like a branch when you run over it).

Guilty of all three. Expect the local parts shop knows me by face only. Not name yet. I keep changing where I buy stuff.

You know you drive a skyline when you rejoice at a local businesses bankruptcy because it means there's a parking spot available where you can see you car from your desk.

LOL - agreed. It takes me hours to get over even minor damage I've just noticed ;p

    • 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.
