I was driving home with the wife in the passenger seat, boot full of toys and stuff from shopping, minding my own business driving the 60Km speed limit. The road was slightly wet, due to the rain and there wasn't many cars on the road. by the way i drive a R34 GTT stock.

This is what happened in point form:

1. Driving on punchbowl rd just past intersection of belmore rd, a white R32 GTR with black rims with a red strip on the rims drives near me.

2. The R32 starts to be aggressive in that he's revving the engine wanting to race me.

3. We come up to the coronation pde intersection, the lights just turned yellow. I have the option to:

a - Speed up and beat the lights or

b - be a good citizen and slow down.

4. I chose B as i'm thinking the R32 would speed off but i was wrong, he decides to slow down to.

5. I'm thinking oh crap, he's his chance to show how good his car is against mine (mind you it was a nice looking GTR, but needed a wash).

6. At this time, the R32 was revving like crazy but when the lights went green his car stalled.

7. My wife and I laughed so hard i made sure the guys in the R32 heard us.

8. I drove off like a granny when the lights went. He finally caught up to me while i was turning into burwood rd.

So if you see a white R32 GTR with black rims with a red stripe and a large sticker (of some performance place), point at them and laugh!!!!

P.S if anyone who is on the forums with the above car i'm sorry i laughed so hard.

I drive along that road most nights of the week. I do regularly see a white GTR usually parked around near the shops at croydon park, One thing I do know is that that road as it has only just been resurfaced is apparently a bit of a hot spot for late night drag racers of late.Which may explain why he wanted to run you so badly

...............???? and theeeeeeeenn?

and then at the lights again........"OMG BRO....im from puncbowl/lakemba.......how dare you laugh at me couz *pulls out a gun*, Wulla...swear to gawd i will shoot you...!!!"

    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
