Well, well, well... Look what the cat dragged into this thread...

'ol miss 180sx... Hows the tractor going ? Your slightly more respected to these guys. You don't own a Skyline. Your still inferior thou.

it's developing a rebuild history as good as any rotor these days lol

They are not the marque car some like to think they are.

I'm not bagging out your emotional attachment or the car itself either. Its just a fact.

PS. I have owned both an R33GTSt and FD RX7.

I'm telling you now, the Rotary crowd and FD Crowd specifically are a million times more community based around the marque (and no... I dont considar the FD some special supercar better then your GTR's). I have found the Skyline Crowd more based on the Social Scene then anything.

How many of the first 100 members of SAU still have Skylines ???? Food for thought.... I can think of 5 or 6 straight away that don't.

So 5 or 6 out of a 100 - add a few more - this proves nothing more than some people like to sample new/different models. I know quite few ex-FD RX7 owners that have moved on too - they got sick of the engine reliablity issues that come with owning a 13B.

I must say though, how very surprising to see an ex-Skyline owner - mid range model at that - who has moved on and now owns a flagship Mazda model and is vocal about how good their new car is by comparision. ;-)

hahahaha...

GTR's didn't do it for me. The rotor was where my heart always was... Even when I had the GTSt.

Plus... There are never ex-FD owners... Just FD rejected owners...

I'll post what I posted on the video.

'There is very little space to pass on these roads? If the R35 had started the Sudden Death round the GTR would be the winner. You can't expect in a single minute race for there to be any legit passing'

This video proves nothingggg

Yeah I often buy the 'other' brand and model when I prefer something else... it's a hoot.

Hey look, there's nothing wrong with a bit of seal love - you'd get to see those seals all the time with that fragile whipper snipper motor :devil:

Oh, and thanks for the link to the Wiggles video.

Eats popcorn, and reads, looks around!!!!!

Wherever, Whoever, Whatever, people drive, there will always be nobs, yobbo's, morons etc..

You find them in all walks of life and different backgrounds.

Face it we are all sorrounded by idiots, build a bridge get over it an move on!

By blowing ones trumpet on how big there engine is obviously compounding issues in other areas of ones life?

A big shout out to all the unique car brothers out there. :devil::)

i think the comments of people not owning skylines to piss off from using this forum is pretty ignorant. kudos to people who widen their knowledge base other than their own make and model. they might learn and apply something here to their car like turbo setups, tuning, suspension setups and the like. you might as well bury yourself blow hole ass up on the beach if you just think a particular forum should be for those who only own one.

so by your own reasoning you would be a skyline reject? Which means the skyline was supperior to your driving abilities?

Seriously, coming onto a skyline forum and bagging out skylines to get a reaction? Yes congratulations it worked, we are all stunned and excited for you to achieve such greatness. Please accept my congratulations your doing your fellow RX7 drivers proud

Im an ex VL owner and I sure as hell dont go back on Calais Turbo and post shit about how much better my skyline is. Grow up.

In all honesty I like RX7's from about series 3 onwards. I however think your attitude gives RX7 owners a bad name

On Topic: I agree theres alot of people in skylines that probably shouldnt be, which is maybe one of the reasons why some might consider me a snob etc when pulled up next to me at lights. I got sick of pulling up next to idiots in skylines/imports/ricers that as soon as you give them a look want to show you how 'fast' there car is. So i dont bother giving them a glance, and for those who are genuinely being respectful to the car i drive etc then i apologise

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.

      So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
