followed a maroon 33 with the plates EER33 from cooroy onto the highway to the bottom of black mountain. i have the following observations to make. 1: one of your tail lights is faded so it is more yellow than red. 2: your car is running pretty rich. i could smell it inside my car with the windows up.

now for comments on your driving.

you weren't able to stay within the lines. for the few kms that i followed you, you were constantly varying you speed between 5 to 15km/h under the limit. then when we go to the overtaking lanes and i tried to pass you, you sped up to 20km/h over the limit so i couldn't get past without flooring it, and then you slowed back down once i was past. you're a deadset dumbass. you may have thought i was wanting to race you because i was constanly getting closer and further away, but that was just because of your poor ability to hold a steady speed meaning that i had to keep slowing down and speeding up.

Try T-Mac, Power Street?

ah yes, that's right. think he may have worked at ford before T-mac, but i could be wrong.

this morning i spotted a white r34 (possibly GTR) with gold wheels heading north on the highway in gympie at the top of the golf course. i was the fella on the bike (in lycra) heading back into town.

and on wednesday i spotted a silver r32 4 door that belongs in the "what not to do to a skyline" thread. it was on steve irwin way heading towards landsborough. had some mildly ugly front bar, eyelids that covered half the headlights and had a strip of LED driving lights under each headlight.

I see loads of young skyliners out southside way and always give the captains wave!! Say Hi back!

34 midnight blue sedan 611MAB is the daily with gun metal rota boosts or on weekends the 34GTT white coupe with GTR wing and BBS wheels.

Must put a SAU sticker on one day!

yeah that's the one. used to live on rifle range road across the road from my grandparents place. i think the guy who owns it works at ford/nissan/mitsubishi.

yeh i used to spot that every morning too on the way to work

Think i followed blackers for a few minutes heading towards 7eleven on the morayfield road, hell no i wasn't waiting 3 times for those lights before i could go. they are a pain in the ass

I moved to Toowong last Tuesday and haven't seen any Skylines around the city at all. Then I went to Sunnybank today and saw heaps. Best two - a very clean looking silver R33 GTST coupe at Sunnybank Shopping center and an R34 GTT sedan with a chunky URAS bodykit - MRR34.

    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home  
    • 1.05 you’ve gotta let it breath 
    • You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
