hahaha when i first got my liner i used to drive around and other skyline drivers would wave.. i was fully like 'wtf' and then squish told me its a 'thing' they all do.. i'd usually wave back but i kinda felt like a knob waving to someone i didnt know lol but nah i didnt have any abusive ones.. they were all nice, even if i was waiting for traffic so i could pull out, they would stop and let me go.. aww so nice ;) lol

are you good looking?

if the answer is yes, then there's your explanation :D

i wave and flash my lights at any skyline driver ... some wave back beep or flash back ones that dont i found out are usually boostloosers with stickers everywhere .. causing havok in traffic trying to show off how fully sick their bov is ? otherwise generally speacking 90% drivers are pretty cool pull up for a chat etc.. thats how i met lynden ! ma white kiwi twin !!

ive found that other skyline drivers ignore me if i wave at them in brisbane. in smaller towns like bundaberg and toowoomba skyline drivers are more than happy to pull over and have a chat to you. i guess people in the city are just rude...

Its really wierd.... I used to own a RX7 and fellow Rotary drivers would wave all the time, if i knew them or not! now i would be lucky to get a nod let a lone a wave (not that im looking for one-- i dont give a shit) in my skyline, and no most rotary drivers dont wave any more! (lol) :(

I have seen many rude skyline owners. Personally I tend to smile and nod not so much wave. Vish I was too busy drooling over your car and trying to read the plates backwards. Theres one chick in particular and its not Amy Lee, with a white 33 and black bonnet, along Johnson Rd that has snobbed myself and my friend in his car .............totally rude.

All of us cefiro owners give the nod or the wave... But the numbers are still pretty low.

I guess its to do with them being more common, its not AS special to own one these days as compaired to when the whole thing started. So now its just another skyline. Where as even 3 years ago it was hey look another skyline!

Thats my theory anyway.

a turbocharged bronze r31 stole fuel from my work this morning around 3.30am

rude prick has no idea how much paperwork i have to fill out when that happens :):)>_<

heh lucky i had a whinge, someone from the 31 owners club spotted this and pointed me at a thread where a 31 had been stolen on the same night.

yep it was the same car.

so working with the owner and the police to track the f**kers down.

this thread pwns :)

Yer hopefully he can get it back in one piece, putting a RB30DET in a 31 is good, but you need alarms in them to stop this happening...

I drive a 31, most people in 32, 33 and 34's don't take much notice of me. :(

i guess u only take notice if you are a previous owner of a 31. Then again alot of 31 owners snub me :cool:

I see plenty of lines between home, work and uni (between Munruben and Upper Mt Gravatt).

I can count the number of friendly liners on 1 hand... and that was a certain Yellow R34 with a nice loud stereo :cool:

Usually I get asians or middle easterns (no racisim) here, and they look at me confused when I wave.... they just don't understand.

That said, I saw a little white boy today in his car "SMOKE U" who seems to visit browns plains... nice driving dude... honestly, just put a new sticker on your car that says "Pull me over".

I use to have a Silver 4 door R32 with a big front mount who'd wave at me along mt lindsay highway in the 90 zone (around granger/stoney camp rds).

Now I'd be lucky to see a line not driven by a bogan. But that's what happens when the locals get some cash and realise the potential of a skyline... bummer they usually don't pick decent ones that are clean and tidy :(

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
