Maroon R33 last night at the lights at Blakehurst. Gave the thumbs up and then he launched it hard. Nice twin cannon setup and the sound was mad.

Then saw an RBT down the road so i flogged it past them, still didnt catch up with the 33, dude he must have been fcuking hooning!

"FEAR"

ATTENTION ALL SKYLINE DRIVERS AND LOVERS

THE ULTIMATE SPOTTING......

SPOTTED

BLACK R32 GTR WITH CARBON FIBRE BONNET

NUMBER PLATE "FEAR"

SPOTTED THE OTHER DAY ON A DRIVEWAY. IT DIDNT EVEN MOVE BUT IT SMASHED ME OFF THE LINE.

WATCH OUT, THIS IS THE ULTIMATE SPOTTERS CAR.

Thats the first time ive been spotted! BOOYEAH!

I hope all the times you spot me im doing the right thing (redline + flatchange)............... jks .

can't remember if it was you or not, but looked suspisciously similar to your ride, very similar rims, R32 GTS-t, did that exact thing up that hill in miranda, next to miranda fair, on the far side near that carpark entrance. If it was you, heard you bouncing off your rev limiter a few times, then i turned and looked at the apprentice next to me and said "that can't be healthy" :angry:

mine is only 2500km old engine but the limiter was close to 8500rpm which was a bit higher then i thought they were

so THAT'S why i haven't hit it :angry:

Just haven't been bothered/been too cautious to rev it like that

i had an intresting noise last night. i was going down Tudor road into bonnet bay. the "clock" was almost full if you know what i mean and i heard this huge BANG! and thought id really fcuked something.

i slowed down and check a few things and couldnt see anything out of the ordinary, check all looked for stuff leaking.

Im soughta scared to think what it is. it wasnt a bang from hitting some debreee or anything like that. but everything is fine. NFI what it was but if its bad i guess ill find out.........

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
