I thought it was my turn to have a rant, so here is the story...

Tonight went for a cruise with my mate up norton summit into lobethal,then back down the gorge, at Kangaroo creek we stop and have a break as im feeling abit tired. Then after awhile a cooner spec VN full of feral skin heads pulls in and starts yelling and harrassing the F*** out of us, so we just boost it out of there only to be followed, but it only took a few corners to loose them.

About an 30-40 minutes later we are getting food at HJ's only to have a junker VL and a VS both full of yobbo's come and start circling around my car so I couldnt drive off, one of them just narrowly missing my car :woot: ... So we just sat in the car looking like we didnt give a shit until the got bored and buggered off.

I just realised now I should of written down their plates and reported them :D

I dont have a problem with commodore drivers in general my brother and one of my best mates drive them and they dont act like yobbos.

Do things like this happen to other skyline drivers or am I just unlucky at attracting these random commodore knob jockeys??

yeh its happened to me a few times... on the way home from work once i got a commodore sitting right up my arse, when i look back into my rear vision mirror i cant see his bonnet thats how close the C*** was, so wat do u do? its farken peak hour so boost'n off into the sun set aint an option... i turn off into mawson lakes, this fag follows me and is hangin out the window yelling at me to pull over.... id pull over and have a crack at him if he didnt look 3 times the size of me. eventually loose him tho as i know mawson lakes pretty good.

a few times i get randoms asking my dumb questions.... like "omg a skyline how much boost are you running??????" and "does it boost hard?????" thaey are my personal favourites.

you always get flamin mongrels like that.. the other day a vr pulled into the car park next to me and my mate.. his music was blazing, we both have 32's so we started up our engines and he shut up.. u gotta set em in line.... just show em whos boss like mentioned earlier dude, else if they threatening, just ignore them... they will eventually get bored... best of luck mate.

I also get it in my daily young commy drivers cutting in frount of me and driving right up my ars. So i slow down to 50kph just to piss them of and when they go to over take i speed up lol then at the lights i just give them a big smile lol

just watch out tho most think they are 50cent or eminem lol

A funny part I forgot my mate was saying after we left one of the guys in the VS was asking his mate in the car "is that thing really have a turbo" :D

I thought having RS-TURBO on the side of the car would be a big enough indication? :D

I guess the only answer is to take them on.... and give them shit for losing to a 2 litre 4 cylinder :woot:

+1 for all the above comments yes there may be some good commys out there but im so sick of them getting up ur ass and wanting to drag u if i had a dollar for every time that happened

no shit, if you had a $1 for every time that happens you would be a millionaire!!

my best mate and his mates all have nice supercharged or v8 spec commy's but i have been cruising with them a couple of times and even they hate elizabethian spec commy's.....but yes i have had plenty of these...i also seen to attract small turbo cars trying to give me a run....but yes if i had a $1 for everytime a commy or ford driver wanted to give me a run i would have a freaking 34 NUR GTR by now

what's going on? they're still spewing over bathurst! they're just jealous because they can't put fully sick nismo stickers on their cars!

but i've had my share of these situations! mainly because my car is rice

Unless they start getting serious n start calling me shit i usually wont do anything. Racing people like that isn't even worth it at all. Im still waiting for the chance to do a keybanger into someones window one day with the corolla. It'll either get them really mad or shut em up. Im curious to see.

ive had a couple of bogans yell stuff after giving em a beating, i usually cant make it out between the bogan slur and my exhaust note so i dont really bother me. usually just laugh at em :)

my bro's gets way worse with his swift turbo, he usually gets the finger. but its funny as hell when he beats the v8s and they seriously get on the verge of crying. we got some of them on film :P

i reckon i prob got more abuse in my dato though back in the day, i reffered to it as fastest bucket of sh*t in town complete with peeling vynle roof. i beat a vs once and there was a lil swerving at me and slamming on the brakes in front of me that followed was quite shocked by it

but when these people do this crap it also confirms they were trying there hardest to win and still got whipped :laughing-smiley-014:

i was travelling around 20kmph and just came out of a petrol station and next thing i new a vl was up my arse..

so he puts on his blinker to overtake and as hes next to me pushing its guts i put my foot down a little, reachin 60 in no time, only for him to swerve back behind me to avoid a truck, he then swerved in front, tried to side swipe me, then pulled in front of me, slammed on his brakes, then went back behind hit my rear bumper, and i had to boost. Not a cool experience, My wallet hated him, so did my rear bumper.. Jerks.

Sorry to say but you asked for that. Accellerating while someone is next to you is just stupid, no matter how nice or crap their car is. The fact he had to swerve back in to avoid a head on collision is just stupid on your behalf, what were you trying to prove? Of course going to enrage someone doing that!

I hope you learned your lesson not to put yourself and others in a dangerous situation like that even if they are being idiots, last thing we need is another news story saying "skyline was racing a commodore when the commodore driver was forced to collide head on with oncoming traffic"

/rant

hah the only sort of 'commodore bogans' I get are the ones trying to get my attention, usually just turn the music up and pretend i cant hear them. The ones that try drag me off at the lights are the best.. i rev the engine a little to make em think im gonna take em on then as they floor it i just cruise off slowly. They will get caught one day..

    • Not that I know from experience, but in theory you'd want your gate spring to be as close to target pressure as possible, so you'd go with the higher gate spring?
    • Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.
    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
