people are more annoyed when they hear an alarm. its like the boy who cried wolf i guess.

Agreed...

Car alarms are just like everything else these days, with all the visible crime that happens - only a small minority of people are willing to involve themselves in such injustice towards others - and car alarms are bloody annoying!!

At least the alarms are still useful for deterring thieves when they are in your car, panicking with adrenalin. I can bet that if my alarm was not going off when my car was broken into, i would have lost much more than some spare change and my freaking ash tray.

Anyone got a 32 ashtray for sale btw?!

I think Commodore owners cop it alot worse.

Oh well these days thanks to the media, anything that's got even a hint of modification is a hoon car.

We're all essentially in the same boat really.

Wog stop your moaning and get back to work.

If i saw you in the street id give you a serve as well just for driving a R33 :P

On a lighter note we need to catch up for a beer...

So i can slap you for selling the bike!!!

its all cars in general not just skylines or holdens

has any1 seen that anti speeding add on tv with the xr8 doing a skid n the vl slideing around the corner.... funniest add ever because its anti speeding but no1's actually speeding LOL shows u how dumb the politions are, half of em couldnt even tell the difference between a commodore n a skyline

Old people just like to complain, besides anything sounds loud when compared to a grandpa's Camry.

I think there is a lot of people out there that don't do any young people any favours.

For example P Platers these days, any one who has P plates is portrayed by the media as hoons or casualties waiting to happen.

I had one Young guy in particular in my street that liked doing doughies on my neighbours lawn and burnouts in the street at any where from 10pm - 2am in a 180SX. It's guys like this that spoil it for everyone - old guy hears or sees an import an automatically it's assumed that this guy is a lunatic like the clown before.

The young guy got caught doing a burnout - drunk, whilst on a suspended licence for you guessed it DUI - He also tried to be a bogan hero and punch his way out of it - needless to say he is very well behaved now.

theyre just pissed cos theyre to old to drive it properly and want to vent at someone .....but young enough to still have enough faculties left to get frustrated at the aproach of the grim reaper......lets face it it you learnt to drive inthe kinda tin boxes they had 40 or fifty year ago youd be jealous too....

ive already promised myself that when im old and grey and need the walking frame and stick...every time a car goes past with a decent note tothe exhaust im going to pause and remember that skyline smile........far better imho that pishing it up the wall of a friday night .......

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
