every thread in general discussion seems to wind up going in the same direction!.

I like the look and sound of RX7s, and ill talk to the guys around here who drive them, being a car enthusiast is more of a mindset than a brand allegiance though the reliability issues and insane fuel consumption never made me fancy one for myself though.

When I mentioned other people snobbing me when I drive my VN I meant people who know me or know that my other car is a Skyline..

I tend to avoid 99% of R33 drivers, and the comment about them becoming the new VL Turbo is justified IMO, there are so many ockers and plain idiots buying them here and promptly getting caught hooning its not funny. No offence to the guys who drive em on here, but its a trend i've noticed that you can't really deny.

I always give a wave to HR31 drivers, mainly because I feel sorry for the fact that they are a chick deterrent and most people think they are the same as the pov pack aussie version lol. Unique imports also catch my eye, and ill always give the driver a thumbs up, around here it seems to be all older wealthy guys with the Stagea's, rare WRX's etc.

p.s I go on Calais Turbo occasionally for a laugh, some of the mods there are a pisser! (not to mention /b/tards)

in my shit town there is probably 9 skylines getting around including mine.... 2 R-34'S, 1 highly modified R-31,3 R-32's and the rest R-33's.

a few Silvia's a couple of supra's ,1 brand new 2008 Subaru sti,1 Toyota soarer and a whole lot of 300zx.

its a small town and ive only had one of the 34 owners wave back at me the others have either given me the finger or chased after me then come up along side me & give me a pshhhhhh then take off.

i think in general its a turbo owner thing going on and most of the guys in town drive like dead set f*** heads,i go out for a relaxing drive as i really enjoy driving my car but i either have assholes yelling pshh pshh through my window as i drive by & im like wtf? i dont have an aftermarket bov or they do that damn pinky finger thing at me and im driving normal.

I love my 32, and i loved my S13 and i love chasers and Fj holdens and XY-XW GTHO falcons..

credit where credit is due..a nice car is a nice car

as for idiots on the road.....ignore them and dont become one of them....

just jumping in. does that pinky thing mean wanker ? or is it refering to the driver's attitude as top shit ?

i think its means something like your trying to compensate for having a little penis or something like that....what does it mean???

hey ToF,

you havent come across a white nissan stagea on the keysy-dandy bypass late one night have ya ? a while ago ?

I think I may have. I can just vaguely remember, I saw it and I wanted to give a thumbs up but no one ever looks at my Camry. :cheers:

Yes Skyline drivers are losers.

We are Gen X onwards

We love playstation and console games

We love technology and gizzmos

We love Beer

We love SBS

We love Channel 10

We love the Internet

We love Skylines

We love exoctic cars

We love track days and racing in controlled conditions

We love Police

We love Cars shows and moves

We love every sport under the sun

We love free money

We love free porn

Most of all we love and respect eachother, from experience all skyline members give a wave and say high!

Skyline drivers avoid Commodore/Falcons for a wave for the following reasons

1. Noble Park

2. Noble Park

3. Noble Park

Do I go further?

80% of cars impounded are Falcons and Commodores

60% of above are drivers under 25

20% of above are 21 below

So while these drivers drive around with no regard for the law and drive up insurance premiums for us all, they do not command or warrant my respect, for a wave.

Rotary Drives I much respect for I know alot of Mazada owners personally, and they are great guys! But they take the opinion of hating all Piston powered vehicles not one car imparticular. Obviously by having a mazada owner ranting on about GTR's and Skyline drivers being losers, then obviously he feels threatened that it is a car that doesn't fit into the generalistic peg hole to place it with all Piston Vehicles. What there is a car that compares to your die hard idles of Rotary's in performnace and looks.

We all admire and love other vehicles and have a healthy respect for them. Don't feel threatened embrace us and share the love. We can all get along and be happy.

ahh ok, cause i remeber this one chaser came up, looked really neat and almost standard (like yours)

right next to my window lets go a dose from his BOV. stayed side by side, all the way till keysy pub then the Chaser gave a little juice and slowly crept off into the distance, not saying it was slow. but it wasnt hooning, maybe 4ks over the limit, while my speedo reads wrong, i was like 76kph

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

Oh My...

Your the saviour of the thread, the Skyline owners of the world should have your photo of on their dashboards.

Re-Read the thread from the start matey... You might find that the trend is actually slightly different then what your trying to protray in heroic post.

I'm not even going to entertain the IQ level that requires one to suggest that only Skyline Drivers are welcome on this forum.

Its very interesting that you feel some people don't deserve to drive a skyline... gods gift to the GTR ?

just a word of note:

Rotary engines are not really unreliable. A Stock 13BREW block is quite strong!

You hear rotaries go pop because of:

1. unknown history (as are all s8 imports now)

2. owners who have no clue how to properly maintain the car

as for skylines, ive never been a fan of the car.. even the 34gtr.. it looked too much like a box but i appreciate and respect the rb26

Definitely not me because mine doesn't dose and I probably wouldn't speed off on the street. :cheers:

Out of curiousity, if your not a fan of skylines (assuming you do actually own a series 1 R33 as it says in your display) why do you own one?

Go keyboard warriors, fight, fight, fight, fight. :cheers:

Im reading this thread and listening to a fight scene from rush hour 2 in the back ground, quite fitting really.

Are they assholes? my honest answer would be yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, and hmm yes. but in that view i think most people who buy them do it for the looks they get. Try being female and driving one....its a attraction for assholes!

guess i cant say its all of them :cheers: remeber a large percentage of them arent on this forum!

and i have met a few really nice ones.

A female does not need a skyline to attract arseholes, just tits.

    • Apologies for the long post, but needed somewhere to lay out the entire timeline of events and actions taken:   I've got an 89 GTR with a R34 RB in it. It's been running great all year, driven probably 500KM in the last month. It's not my daily driver, just a weekend fun car.    Build info: R34 RB26 - HKS 2.7 stroker kit, HKS adjustable cam gears, HKS turbo upgrades, Trust intercooler, R34 factory DENSO 440cc injectors, JUN chipped/tuned R32 ECU. All of this work was performed in Japan back in 2019.    Thursday 10/2/25 - It's a nice day and decided I'll drive it to work, I start it up in the garage and I notice it took a few extra cranks and sounded a bit funny. I figure maybe it was just because it was a pretty chilly morning. I pull it out into the driveway to warm up a bit before leaving. As I leave the driveway, it feels very off and sounds like a misfire. I pull it back in the garage to deal with after work and take the daily to work. I was able to diagnose it as a cylinder 5 misfire with the old spark plug test (unplugging each plug until a sound change with the engine running). I take off the whole ignition system, ignitor, plugs, spark. *Important note, it is still on the R32 ignition system with the separate ignitor system. I test each system with a multi-meter and nothing presents as a smoking gun. I put it all back together and it starts up no issue. I go ahead and order the PRP R35 ignition conversion kit. It should arrive today (10/13/25)   Friday 10/3/25 - Another nice day, car starts up great and drives great all day. Very pleased that everything seems to be OK   Sunday 10/5/25 - Decided I'll take it to play some golf, load up and drive to the course about 25 minutes away. Drives wonderful the whole way there, I pull in the parking lot and the engine completely comes to a stop. I do not recall if it sputtered at all, but just remember all of the sudden the engine was off. I roll it into a parking spot, try to crank it back on and nothing.  It'll crank and crank and not even try to start. End up getting it towed back to my house and push it up into the garage.    Items I have checked: Fuel in the tank Fuel Pump relay Fuel pump fuse  Spark Plugs & gap Coil packs Ignitor    I know the cylinders are getting fuel as the plugs smell like fuel after a start attempt. I tried spraying starter fluid into the manifold and cranking and not even a sputter.    I decided to do the live CAS test (removing the the CAS, ignition on and spinning the CAS stalk to see if the injectors pulse and spark is active). All of the injectors were pulsing and I have spark at the plug. The half-moon end of the CAS did seem very loose, I'm not sure how much play is supposed to be there, but it was more than I expected. There was no in/out play of the shaft, just the tip end that is pinned on had quite a bit of play.    CAS Play video   When I put the CAS back in, I stupidly did not re-time the engine. I know I need to do that tonight, however, I do not think it will start given it seemingly was not the issue. My plan is to do the PRP R35 coil kit and retime the engine at the same time.    I plan on ordering the Haltech Nexus Plug-in ECU once they are available again, but ideally would like to get this sorted before firing the parts cannon at it and potentially adding more variables.    Anything glaring that I am missing here, I'm a bit at a loss?          
    • Get it on a dyno. Get something logging Consult. Run it up and find out what is causing it.
    • Looking for a plenum for rb25 de+t neo  Not looking to push much power maybe 300kw at the wheels, is there much difference in flow for Freddy “Greddy style” compared to original Greddy or options like Proflow or Otaku garage?    I won’t be porting the de Neo head for now as I think it’ll be fine 280-300rwkw but appreciate the help and any experiences anyone has between them and any advice. Thanks  Looking at this plenum for now below 
    • engine wise almost no mods: stock ecu Greddy front mount intercooler Greddy forward facing intake w R33 TB stock fuel system, stock injectors, rail etc. Kakimoto racing hyper 3 inch exhaust system Apexi intake filter New NGK –R BCPRES (.8 gap) plugs  
    • Nice one @Pac - looks like a fair few 1600's there!
