but his laggy manual wasnt hitting boost quick enough, torque converter had him!

Nothing will ever beat the look on my mates face when I overtook him sideways on the outside lane of a roundabout.. He didn't believe me Stags could kick the rear out.

Standard 16s FTW, won't do it now on my T1Rs. Time for more power..

I seem to be getting alot more Subaru comments lately rather than Volvo ones.

Dude got offended the other day when i told him it's a Nissan.

He reckons its a Subura body with nissan badges and driveline.

Dumbaass

I get a lot of Subaru comments as well. How dare he claim its a Subaru body? He must have some brain issues that reduce his ability to see shapes properly.

Pretty much for me comments are ranked as follows:

1: Nice Volvo

2: What model Subaru is that?

3: Looks like a Hearse

4: What the f**k is that? (from older people particularly while they stare blankly at the double headed unicorn...)

5: Is that some kind of Falcon or Commodore?

My wife told me a great Volvo story.

Today she was out in the M35 and stopped at a car yard to look at a small car for my daughter who just got her learner's permit.

One of the salesman looks out to the street and says "Yeah, you don't want her driving your nice Volvo".

"It's not a Volvo" my wife says, followed by some puzzled looks on the salesmen's faces.

Then after a very long time one says, "Is that one of them imported Skyline jobs.....?" To which the other one says, "But it's a wagon...?"

I love it! :)

I'm a bit sad today I was told my car was fake!!!!what dose that mean?????he said they never made a skyline wagon?????so much for my autech 260rs.

Classic! :)

Should be able to get out of paying speeding/parking tickets, due to your car not being real...

Question is; if it isn't a car, WTF is it?

my mate attempted to do a brake burnout in my stagea the other night .. i wasnt impressed. however it did have the power to start spining the rear quite easily sporting 245's ..but again wasnt impressed on my brand new 2.2k of tyres.. last time hes driving it :)

Wot if u got an R30? Can I still play???

Lol, I don't mind... :D

Worked with a guy who looked at my old S3 r31 wagon, says "Oh cool, you've got one of those 6 cylinder Pintaras" yeah...

original Lolvo... by PMC or Prince Motor Company. My old man stumbled on a original handbook for one of these - fleabay'd it, it got over $120AUD!

Someone still has one.... somewhere in Japan!

Bit of history for you kids :P

Haha, I had a bit of a chat to the owners of 2 of them while at the "Cars of the World" show a back on November '08.

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
