your wife drives a skyline. impressed

mine wants a damn citroen.

Well she drives it more than me... put it that way lol. Its very hard to pry the keys out of her hands when I want to go and have

some fun. Though letting her use it as a daily atleast its getting driven and not just sitting around.

She prefers to drive the line than the SLR5000. Something about being more modern comfort with "go" :) She's a revhead from way back and not afraid to use the loud pedal.

Townsville (out near Ingham)

Saw TZN33 the white r33 with the mercury motorsports stickers all over it...

Was parked round the corner from the house i was staying at in the same little estate, was a bit of an eye sore to see. As i remember it being from Brisbane and all and here we are 2000 odd km's from home and bumping into each other again... Whats the chances... :)

2nd time in a row yesterday, at the exact same spot (which is kind weird, seeing as it was on the highway).

I was heading southbound, a yellow R34 (I THINK it was a GTR, not 100%) and he was coming north.

twice now, same spot. Just north of the Bermuda street exit on the M1.

spotted my twin with (chromies + Stickers) on kessels road last nite , the look on your face was priceless ... if your on here buddy dont race on the roadsspecially when its busy !!!

    • 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.
    • Wow! how times change 2017 $15k seems expensive... now $30-$50k is the price.
