Hey Guys. Looks like a sweet cruize. From Tassie so there arent that many nice skylines around.

Off topic but there's a white r33 in the pics (asv400114.jpg) just wondering where the rear skirts came from. look sweet. very nice car.

Cheers

hahaha...now I am starting to think the radio wasn't worth it - nah, I would have got lost without it.

the tripod, dad got from a garage sale for $10 and the umbrella was Durk's (robocop). He was the only one there with one. Even though it had rained all day

Who Owns the white 33 with the 400r bar? You have the top secret rear bar like me, AND SIDE SKIRTS!! where did you get them? I have the front and rear bar, just want the sides...

Ive been looking for those skirts for months!

Any info would be fantastic

4doors the pics were excellent, the fact that it was rainy night made everything glisten in the night lights, top job mate.

What modifications have you made to your car since you first met ben at BWCP a while back. Cos I remember absolutely draggin you on the way back home from mudgerreeba servo. ANd on saturday, the tables had obviously turned, when you totally blew us away out near ipswich. Ben was sayin though he reckons he can still beat ya - he said he had decreased the boost as a result of hearing a hissing sound when he'd giv the car abit.

Theres always next time I guess hey?

    • 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.
