Had a red 83 sigma. Got bored. Got drunk. Got a paint roller out and put white gt stripes over it.

Instant bogan car. Had to kick the passenger front door to get it to close, or it swing open. Had no fuel guage or speedo. Cable tied everything. Drilled a hole in the exhaust.

Sold it for a carton of rum. The dude who bought was soo ripped off.

mate wanted his car painted so him and a mate got spray cans n painted it in a shed... but when they got to the sides there wasnt enough room so they were up close to the car and the cans were to close to car so the paint ran every where. hahah it looked so shit

one time i tried to put a new stereo in my vl but i did it in the late afternoon but then i remembered i had to go pick a heap of mates up n go out. so we drove around with no stereo as i blew a fuse in the interior lights so the dash had no lights so i had a dolphin torch with me and i'd turn it on occassionally to make sure i was doing the speed limit

dodgy and not proud of it. pulled out my surge tank because the relay shat it self for the 2 pumps and i cbf with rewiring it so i used some 8mm pvc hose $4 from bunnings and 2 hose clamps to mate the breather and return together so fuel would return the to fuel tank, very f**king dodgy and stupidly dangerous

my mate had an old kingswood and the seat broke so he drove around sitting on a milk crate
lol same guy went through a red light camera. so that night he went back n reversed over the pole with the camera on it. brought the box into school and they opened it in metal works.. it was empty :happy: they used to rotate the cameras in WA

hahaha tops!

Bullbar fabrication, my mate was sick of running over roos and wombats and denting his ute, so I went up to his joint lugging the welder and he'd bought some steel, he figured he knew what he wanted, but if I had nothing else to do he'd really like some gutter sweepers on it.

Alright, we're country kids and it's not like theres any cops, so bugger it, straight through with 2 hotdogs on each side poking out near the back wheels, it sounded sex and by the time I'd finished getting it all nice an tidy Paulies done with the bullbar.

2 of us couldn't pick it up, I figured it was kind of heavy so we got the block and tackle which in hindsight was an indication of just how stupid this was getting but it did look kind of neat and we got that bastard on the front of the ute good and proper.

It was big and looked mean, sounded mean, f**ken ay! :(

We both sat down and cracked open the beer and smokes on the newly made bullbar and the back of the ute lifted up... :D

on my swift i held my rear bar on only my masking tape. lasted 2 days before i saw it fly off on the great western highway. pulled over and played a game of frogger trying to get it back before someone ran into it. no stratches or damage believe it not. if u ever need a strong mould dont look past www.gtautostyle.com top stuff.

i couldnt b bothered getting a wiper blade for my car so i cut the some off the back wiper and melted it together with the front one with a lighter. still works lol

LOL OMG!!!

THEY ARE LIKE $4 BAHAHAHAHHAHHAHHAHA.. thats great lol

using normal Sticky tape to wire up an old stereo in my datto.

Also using a rag to prop it up when I couldnt figure out how to mount it...

Using chicken wire and newspaper and bog to fill huge holes in an old 180B! Oh, I think I dropped the paper on the lawn , so there was some grass in there aswell...

:laugh:

mate had a 120y

never serviced, never tuned etc etc etc for about 3 years

often took it gravel tracking out in the bush

busted teh front window while gravel tracking so we kicked it out

kicked the passenger window out cause it busted too (another occasion b4 the front window)

steering was dodgier than an italian trying to sell a skyline

often left his longboard skateboard and guitar in there, no doors locked (mind you it had no side window for a while, then no front window) both ended getting nicked

always went to the beach surfing with the surfboard ratchet tied on through the windows

went 4wd in it

at a mates house we got some industrial gladwrap and wrapped the whole car (and i mean the WHOLE car) up about 3 layers

he came outside, jumped through a gap in the gladwrap where the front windscreen used to be, and drove off

drove like that for about a week till teh cops gave a sideways yellow (mind you, they couldnt really put it on for the laughing)

we went on a trip up north for the weekend in a late 70's corolla on 4wd tracks

got airborne, drove it through bushes, knocked down trees, bounced of the rev limiter trying to get over sand dunes etc etc etc

got another mate with a 120y coupe

we put a flame thrower kit on it (illegal count 1)

we put dukes of hazzard airhorns on it (illegal count 2)

he got a PA system that does cop/fire/ambo and animal noises plus mic (illegal count 3) - good for chatting to the ladies on teh street: "hey - nice legs" as we go passed >_<

its got extractors and exhaust on it, we did bog laps on south terrace in freo late at night

revving really high in first and it just pops and burbles and echos off all teh close buildings, then we would do the dukes of hazzard horn and scare teh shit outa the people lineing up outside the nightclubs :(

WE once went to the beach, then forgot we had matches for the fire

so we knicked 2 bog rolls from the building site down the road, pulled the fuel line of my mates ap5 valiant carby, soaked the bog rolls in fuel, arced out the alternator with a big ass screwdriver and it lit up the bog roll, quickly ran over the dunes with a flaming bog roll

instant fire!!!!

tey don't have limiters. that would've been valve bouncing.

lol the most dodgy thing for me was using cable ties to secure my rear neons right up against my stock exhaust,

they ended up moving around and melting to my stock exhaust lol

What exhaust? your stock exhaust!?

I tried to install new cam gears and 4 new belts myself. Ended badly in the name of mobility.

    • Apologies for the long post, but needed somewhere to lay out the entire timeline of events and actions taken:   I've got an 89 GTR with a R34 RB in it. It's been running great all year, driven probably 500KM in the last month. It's not my daily driver, just a weekend fun car.    Build info: R34 RB26 - HKS 2.7 stroker kit, HKS adjustable cam gears, HKS turbo upgrades, Trust intercooler, R34 factory DENSO 440cc injectors, JUN chipped/tuned R32 ECU. All of this work was performed in Japan back in 2019.    Thursday 10/2/25 - It's a nice day and decided I'll drive it to work, I start it up in the garage and I notice it took a few extra cranks and sounded a bit funny. I figure maybe it was just because it was a pretty chilly morning. I pull it out into the driveway to warm up a bit before leaving. As I leave the driveway, it feels very off and sounds like a misfire. I pull it back in the garage to deal with after work and take the daily to work. I was able to diagnose it as a cylinder 5 misfire with the old spark plug test (unplugging each plug until a sound change with the engine running). I take off the whole ignition system, ignitor, plugs, spark. *Important note, it is still on the R32 ignition system with the separate ignitor system. I test each system with a multi-meter and nothing presents as a smoking gun. I put it all back together and it starts up no issue. I go ahead and order the PRP R35 ignition conversion kit. It should arrive today (10/13/25)   Friday 10/3/25 - Another nice day, car starts up great and drives great all day. Very pleased that everything seems to be OK   Sunday 10/5/25 - Decided I'll take it to play some golf, load up and drive to the course about 25 minutes away. Drives wonderful the whole way there, I pull in the parking lot and the engine completely comes to a stop. I do not recall if it sputtered at all, but just remember all of the sudden the engine was off. I roll it into a parking spot, try to crank it back on and nothing.  It'll crank and crank and not even try to start. End up getting it towed back to my house and push it up into the garage.    Items I have checked: Fuel in the tank Fuel Pump relay Fuel pump fuse  Spark Plugs & gap Coil packs Ignitor    I know the cylinders are getting fuel as the plugs smell like fuel after a start attempt. I tried spraying starter fluid into the manifold and cranking and not even a sputter.    I decided to do the live CAS test (removing the the CAS, ignition on and spinning the CAS stalk to see if the injectors pulse and spark is active). All of the injectors were pulsing and I have spark at the plug. The half-moon end of the CAS did seem very loose, I'm not sure how much play is supposed to be there, but it was more than I expected. There was no in/out play of the shaft, just the tip end that is pinned on had quite a bit of play.    CAS Play video   When I put the CAS back in, I stupidly did not re-time the engine. I know I need to do that tonight, however, I do not think it will start given it seemingly was not the issue. My plan is to do the PRP R35 coil kit and retime the engine at the same time.    I plan on ordering the Haltech Nexus Plug-in ECU once they are available again, but ideally would like to get this sorted before firing the parts cannon at it and potentially adding more variables.    Anything glaring that I am missing here, I'm a bit at a loss?          
    • Get it on a dyno. Get something logging Consult. Run it up and find out what is causing it.
    • Looking for a plenum for rb25 de+t neo  Not looking to push much power maybe 300kw at the wheels, is there much difference in flow for Freddy “Greddy style” compared to original Greddy or options like Proflow or Otaku garage?    I won’t be porting the de Neo head for now as I think it’ll be fine 280-300rwkw but appreciate the help and any experiences anyone has between them and any advice. Thanks  Looking at this plenum for now below 
    • engine wise almost no mods: stock ecu Greddy front mount intercooler Greddy forward facing intake w R33 TB stock fuel system, stock injectors, rail etc. Kakimoto racing hyper 3 inch exhaust system Apexi intake filter New NGK –R BCPRES (.8 gap) plugs  
    • Nice one @Pac - looks like a fair few 1600's there!
