Haven't visited this site for a while now, but thought i'd say that whoever owns the white fully kitted R33 GTS with R34 GTR wheels, that deliberately cut off and blocked several cars to within an inch of an accident today - you're an absolute fool (yes you know who you are if you are on here). I really hope that your driving and lack of road education isn't a reflection on the skyline community, cos most of the blokes i know on here have done an awesome job in maintaining a reputable name for the Skyline drivers.

Spotted this on the way to work and had to take a photo....

The most embarrassing example of a Skyline I have seen in a while and the reason why the missus thinks they are all rice boxes. It had a shopping list, "Street Racing" in that SPOOKY font and some muztek looking spec bloke/girl (I couldn't tell the difference) driving.

/FAIL

my god that 33 looks horribad. How can one look at their own car when it looks like that and think to themselves man my car looks good.

I always have a good ol' laugh when i see ricers the misses always tells me off.

Saw a very clean (ie. shiny) R31 last sunday on Maroondah hwy. Quite surprised to see a young driver behind the wheel as I didn't think there would be too many fans of the older skylines.

i lold so badly, hes running a stock setup with stock rims and a *hektik* boddy kit, i know this becuase hes tried to race me 3-4 times from the lights, along springvale road near wheelers hill / glen Waverley area down to spingvale area...

Yeah was some hektik driver... >.< i actually beat him the first time and i was like LOL, he was racing? Then he went flying past me doing like 120km a few hundred meters down the raod to prove how tough his car is.

anyway yeah :banana: nice spot atleast u got a picture, im pretty sure its a rip off of smoking Joe's racing colors *Honda CBR racing colors*

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
