Spotted Sam Irving up the coast at caloundra yesterday morning...

Almost missed him and was in the S15 so I didnt flash or toot as he would not have known who it was, plus he went past before I even knew it was him...

My partner has a "S15 S-GT"

As my car is in pieces atm and hers in on a salary package (you need to do 15,000km's per year min)

So we drive her car 90% of the time...

The garage is for the S15 and the R33... They look hot sitting side by side...

The company hacks get the road out the front... :P

Ive seen you getting around. Was out driving with my boss during work time (we were in a "meeting") and you were turning onto park street in milton, I think you waved? Anyway not sure if it was you, but it was a chick in a pink skyline with a black bonnet, clean paintjob. Nice ride.

I was in a grey 32 GTR /w black bonnet btw.

hmm... im not sure if it was me, my skyline is a pearl pink, if it was me, u would have seen it in fully matt paint, it must have been during the time when i was working on it. Now the paint of my car is half done i still gotto gloss the black parts ,also my boot and wheels are black as well. Anyway so far i havent seen another pink skyline on the road so the chances of it being me are good... well i hope there aren't any other pink skylines around :laugh: hehe

I was at car wash, I was already stopped ;) you drove past.

You live local I guess? Got a mate on Browns Plains road with a black R33, not to be confused with the black R33 in Marsden that does skids a fair bit (something PSI plates). Use to stir him up when I worked for dominos driving the echo, go skyline go! lol

I saw a couple cars going the opposite way along the bruce highway... drove to noosa and back, bit hard to wave and didn't pay enough attention to remember, but hello anyway haha.

Spotted Bunta's other car (wine red R33)which has been borrowed by Shanef.

It was parked on the side of the road at the city end of the Centenary Highway near the Toowong Roundabout. It appeared to be empty and sad.

Something obviously went wrong with it.....

Indeedy, did a compression test on her in the arvo and wasnt good, turns out it blew the headgasket. Put her on the back of a truck, and got her home.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      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.
