haha lol at all the lines. "put out or get out" i like it :)

considering taking the back seats out...i'll save a bit of weight as well :) i'm so sick and tired or people getting lifts off me or just assuming that they can grab a lift. another bitch and two other my mates cracked it with me that same night because i wasn't giving them a lift home, and i was taking those 2 chicks home, even though there was never going to be room for my mates anyway and i'd told them at the start of the night they would have to catch a taxi! i bought my skyline for ME because i enjoy driving, looking after and modifying it, not to be everyones taxi or to pull the chicks (although it is a nice benefit at times;))

sorry guys i needed to vent somewhere, i'm not usually this much of a whinger!

well, i can say i have never picked up becuase of my car..... as i dont drive it out when im drinking... and everyone i know has a car so doesnt really mean shit.

and if you need to mention your car to pick up... then you should have spent the 20k on plastic surgery or personality re calibration.

haha yeah i took my seats out ages ago cause i was sick of having to take people in my car

"can u give me a lift?"

answer

"do u like being thrown around on steel brackets?"

yeah im with you dave, when people aske me what type of car i have i tell them i have a nissan and leave it at that.

people have expected lifts from me in the past. just make it clear that because you can drive doesnt mean your a taxi. They are responsible for themselves... its not your worry. i only pick people up in emergencies, ive only done that once and that was when my mates girlfriend broke up with him and kicked him out in the rain at 1am.

Im with Dave, I dont really see a skyline as an overly impressive car and id say the quality women wouldnt care either....

And if a chick is only into you for your car, then it is a well known fact that the NRNR rule applies...

NRNR=No Root No RIde...

All is fair in love and war...

that's another good one... No Root, No Ride.

I'm used to being used for my car... my g/f is pregnant (can you leave work and drive me here / there) but hey... I've only got myself to blame for knocking her up.

But I'm past all of it with my friends... I used to be they wanted me to drive them everywhere, but in my Coupe I gave them short shift and said that "it's too much hassle getting in and out the back seats". :)

NOW one of my mates in particular want's to borrow my car!

The only problem I can see is that I don't want to put him under my insurance... he has no idea what POWER is (he drives and old FORD UTE), and he'll right my skyline off on the first corner as his UTE hadles like a barge!

My car automatically locks the doors after 30sec, or after travelling 25km/h as some kind of anti-car-jack thing... and I'd stick by the NRNR rule... but bottom line is I have to be faithful as my g/f is pregnant... and one other thing...

Does the NRNR rule STILL HAVE TO APPLY when you're driving family members somewhere... sound's like a case for Jerry Springer :)

yeah i hate how much attention it gets me. like if they didn't want to talk to me before they found out what car i drove why should they afterwards! as i said i bought the car for me. i like akeenan's reply of simply "nissan", i think i'll be using that from now on :)

    • Sounds more like what Brad said, that it's mainly transfer. What pad bed in procedure did you use, and did you replace/machine the rotors, or just swap pads?
    • The stutter is almost entirely in the pedal. I don't feel the brakes release and reapply as you would with ABS engaging but the pedal feels that way, without the brakes releasing. It only lasts for less than a second and the pedal is fine again. It's hard to explain, sorry.  I'll get under this weekend and just double check everything is tight. Fluid is at max where I left it.
    • What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!
    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
