Off topic- Does it anyone else get slightly annoyed that other people in R32/33/34's don't acknowledge you as a Skyline driver? I usually wave to anyone in a Skyline but don't seem to receive it.

I have seen so many V's and R's around in the last week or so in Adelaide, whilst driving my 4 door V and I never get a wave back :angry:

Feeling a little invisable. Someone please spot me!!!!!!!! (I even had a very nice Black 2 door V35 drive past me yesterday whilst I was turning into On The Run at Plympton and they still didn't acknowledge my :action-smiley-069: )

Andrew has a nice black v35 coupe. Maybe it was him. Bad Andrew Bad! :spank:

Spotted a Black v35 coupe on Parramatta rd heading towards the city i was heading out of the city, a girl on her green P's was driving it :)

I thought our car was restricted for P platers here in Sydney. Ive seen a few p platers in G's.....i dunno why i waited to be on my full to get mine.

They're restricted, those people just run the risk of getting caught. I want one so bad!

Also, spotted white/ pearl coupe on yesterday noonish going down bourke street heading to Cleveland! Pearl 350s look really solid!

Correct. Nissan Skyline V35 350GT is on the "restricted list" in NSW. However, in QLD there are no records at all of them being restricted. But they are actually illegal for every P plater due to the power to weight ratio. I have had my V for 5 months on my Green P's been pulled over once for a RBT other than that i drive sensibly and have no troubles.

I don't think they are illegal in Qld actually.. I checked it out a little while back.. the rules are weird.. Qld has the normal 'No V8' and 'No turbo' rules, but for others, the limit is 210kW. And since the 350GT produces 206KW, it isn't restricted.

However, if you own a restricted vehicle and want to apply for an exception to allow you to drive it on your 'P', then one of the requirements for the exception is a maximum of 125KW/tonne, which the 350GT doesn't pass..

So if they ever do decide to ban it.. you have no chance of getting an exception..

Yes that's what i wrote, there are no records at all of the car being illegal in QLD. I have a mate that has the same car as me and thrashes it has lost his lisense for 12 months and has countless speeding fines and everything but has never been told the car is illegal for him. So basically i'm keeping it on the low-down and keeping out of trouble and trying not to draw attention to myself incase i do meet an educated police officer who knows that the car is illegal for me.

I drive past Plympton alot. Hope that wasn't me....what kind of rims and headlights??

I haven't seen any black Coupes like mine down my end of town.

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
