Nah mine is not really green so much (hard 2 tell from that shot)..it is actually a chamelion style colour - green 2 blue 2 purple

Hope 2 c u guys around :rant:

hi all, saw a skyline with green stripes on gympie rd sunday, thought it was a subaru at first becuase i saw a subaru sticker on the side of it then realised different, sorry for being rude if it was anyone here i was too tired to say hello (been working all day)....so ill say hello now..HELLO!!!

25det - were you in that gunmetal grey 33? I waved, but they just looked at me for a sec then continued staring ahead, so just assumed that they were wierded out by the stripes.

And what Subaru sticker on the side?!!?!? I have the New SAU sticker, Brake Distributers, Bob Jane T-Marts and Automotive Technique in a shopping list on the sides, not Subaru :)

yeh that was me and my gf, i thought i saw a subaru sticker probably not, thats how tired i was, anyway yeh stock gry 33 was me

Wide tyres are the suck, just replaced my 4, 2x235's were $160ea and 2x255's were $300ea.

And you'd be very surprised how much difference a pod and zaust make, when mine was bone stock, yes totally stock, I ran a 137rwkw then put a cat back super dragger on and ran 152rwkw on the same dyno no less than 4 weeks in between runs.

Now I got 177rwkw, hmmmmmmmmmmm mid range ROCKS with an SAFC tuned properly :D

    • 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.
