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 :)

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
