I think I have worked out the top reasons people get skylines

1. Performance

2. After Market Parts

3. Body Styling (unless you own a R33 :mellow: )

4. Fast and Furious

5. They think it will pick up chicks.....

What makes me love skylines?

I really only like GTR's to be honest, GTST's dont "do it" for me

I love the way a tuned GTR with good suspension can just murder a corner, awd launch at 8000rpm, so easy to do get loads of power out of, smash uber expensive Euro's around the track....

"SOOOooooo many 32 owners with small man syndrome."

Allow me to put the quotes on that for you.

bang for buck for my particular hoare, massive bang in all deptartments for the $$$ i paid to attain and keep her. I enjoy raping her across the rev range. driving it is a rollercoaster and brings a smile out of me that comes from somewhere inside.

lol... that's deep man..

I love the the fact that nothing else could give me the fun, performance and future potential for the money I paid. And the fact that I can drive it everyday.

However does anyone else get weird/aprehensive responses when you tell peple you love your car and thats it's a skyline? Most people seem to go oh........a skyline.............ok. They seem to make an instant mental not that you are a hoon, out to slaughter innocents on the road whenever you can.

I think you'll find it's not because you have a whale..

it's because you admit to having intimate feelings/emotions about a vehicle.

or it could be that they immediately assume you also like Fat chicks which is a sick thought on it's own.

They're all like "oh.. you "love" your r33 skyline hey?"

they're thinking "what a sick bastard.. I bet he get's his end wet in fat chicks too... *shudder*"

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
