there's more oldies behind r33's wheels than r32, but it'll change next yr.

ATM the most popular car for middle aged lankan men with a mid life crisis to buy is an R33 4-Door... coz a lot of em are related to some other lankan who imports em.

age really has nothing to do with anything... its whats ontop of your shoulders that counts :)

good on the older peeps who have lines.. they have taste HEHEH

and the younger p platers well.. cmon we were all that ages once... as long as they arn't tools i have no problem with em :/

Its all relative to where you live if you ask me -

You guys could have neighbours around the corner with these cars and you are seeing like the same handful of cars all the time.

I know I see a white 34 GTT in the city every week but I dont say its common unless I KNOW 100% its a different one each time.

Consider the fact that people who use their skylines for commuting - they are gonna be at the same place at roughly the same time each day and [you guessed it] you are there to witness it again.

Only when you can fully distinguish between each car can you say [effectively] that "they are common" or "there's heaps of X around these days"

blah

I agree with Predator, I just like to drive mine and if I see a few skylines on dandy road [very popular road for traffic :/] or whatever I think - nice :) [better than everyday stuff].

how did you know he was exactly 60  

he could have been 59 or 61 ?

No he was exactly 60, and not a day over or under :/ in fact i believe it may have been his birthday. I accosted him when i saw him.. pulled a handbrakey to cut him off in the Falcon .. and i definitely heard him swear "but i'm 60!!!" out the window.. Unfortunately the old man high-tailed it at that point and the slipperly grey little sucka got away :):(

...actually i am sure he was a shadowy underworld figure on his way to a hit now i think about it ..that black attache case gave it away :)

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
