I was cut off by an idiot in an R33 recently, it sparked a responce from me. !0 great driving tips!

1: Dont play chicken with a bus! You weigh just over 1 tonn, we weigh over 20, you and your car WILL loose.

2: Not all buses are slow!

3: Dont tail gate. Its stupid and dangerous. I ran over a roo near Gladstone and spattered it all over a suzuki that was tail gating me. lol

4: If you cant see a drivers mirrors (truck, bus, car, 4WD or bike), they cant see you. Dont drive in their blind spots!

5: Turn on your freaking lights on dark or stormy days. If you dont see them, maybe they will see u.

6: Keep a safe distance. This is your saftey zone. you need a 3 second gap between you and the vehicle in front.

7: If you want to drive at 90km/h, thats fine, but dont speed up on overtaking lanes.

8: Dont EVER buy or drive a campervan, caravan or winnabeigo!

9: People die from road rage, so get away from bad situations, dont agrovate others.

10: If a bus or truck wave you through an intersection, they probably need the space to get into a tight spot. Get out of the way!

Now that you have read this, I am sure that you will need to add a few of your own. Please keep them relative to the topic..

My old man gave me a sage piece of advice when I was a youngen. "drive like everyone else is trying to kill you" were his words.

I tried that and ran late for everything so i figured he got it wrong. Now i drive like i am trying to kill every other prick out there and i am never late.

Lol. Somehow I'd have thought you'd be quicker, or did you not see the guy behind you with the knife?

Give way to Skylines..... :happy:

Seriously though, I got pissed off today by one of those tards who decided to change lanes at the last second to turn off a road. Don't leave it till the last second.

1 Use f**king indicators, it lets everyone else know what you may be thinking

2 don't swap lanes on roundabouts

3 don't indicate right if you're going straight ahead on a roundabout

4 KEEP LEFT (It's the new black!)

5 Try merging at the stated highway speed, it stops a wagon-train of cars clogging the left hand lane and makes life easier for the car you "were" going to cut off while you're doing 70 and not looking

6 Get out of my f**king way!

As Dan said! Also, have respect for the Skyline, it's quicker than you think. Don't try merging in front of one when they are coming at high speed , you may think your 200m is enough room. IT'S NOT, we will be on your ass in no time!

1 Use f**king indicators, it lets everyone else know what you may be thinking

even more important when you are going left around a car that is waiting to turn, almost had a crash at Stafford just over the railway crossing because stupid bitch in a massive BMW 4WD decided the change lane swithout indicating. pulled out just in time for me to see the parked car right in front of me.

think of the sence from that movie "distubria" at the start!

5 Try merging at the stated highway speed, it stops a wagon-train of cars clogging the left hand lane and makes life easier for the car you "were" going to cut off while you're doing 70 and not looking

this one annoys me the most... purely because some morons don't realise that cars are travelling at 100klms on the highway and these wankers are merging at 70 - 80 ks..

F**KIN MOVE.. cause more accidents entering slowly.. and for the record retards.. they can see you coming so they know to let you in if ur on 100..

ps.. obviously not aimed at skyline owners :D

Keep left is the biggest one for me. If you wanna travel at 90km/h in the 100 zone fine just do it in the left lane so i can pass you.

AND even more important. If your gunna do the speed limit don't do it sitting next to someone who is also doin the speed limit. MOVE THE f**k OVER that has got to be the most annoying thing on the road.

Strange thing I notice when driving the R32.

Everyone has a point to prove or they really want you to notice them.

Someone will decide to do something silly like speed off only to brake 1 second later. We're stuck in traffic buddy.

Or they'll speed up just to cut you off. When you're in the slower lane...................

Didn't really have the problem with my previous cars. =\

"Driving Tips Everybody Thinks Everybody Else Knows"

Don't go 20 below the speed limit..... I thought everyone knew that? Apparently f*king not.... sigh. Im pissed off at the moment thats all :D just home from work some tard was going 60 in an 80 zone, i've gone to overtake and then the f*ker speeds up to 80 while im trying to pass in the on coming lane.... love it...f*king love it.

that gets worse especially when a truck does that.

A while back, we went to Broom with another family in a rented sh*t box van (thanks alot mum...) & going on route 1, there was a truck going about 80km/h in a 110km/h, but as soon as we went to the other lane (incoming traffic lane, the line was dotted) it f*cken speeds up, & since the van was a rented from a cheapo place & it was loaded & it was a pos we had to break & go back behind him coz it had sh*t all acceleration. As soon as we are behind him, he f*cken slows down to 80km/h again >:D.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
