I was driving into city for training last night and while I was on victoria road way before getting onto Anzac bridge, this marone R33 comes up besides mine.

Anyhow, it looked pretty good (I didn't realise skylines had such road presence)..Anyway, he took off and a while later, after I crossed Anzac bridge and took the second exit and just turned onto harris st. there he was too! so we were driving down harris street - him in his marone R33 and me in my black R33 line abreast like a motorcade or something. I thought it was pretty mad! People are looking and we get to the lights, then I think he was expecting me to take off and I was thinking the same about him, and we both ended up moving off heaps slow :) anyway that was fun

cheers

Its always SLOW that wins the race :) haha

black r34 gtt on Newline Road again this morning. Waved.

Shonen replica, but with the stock rear wing and dark wheels.

damn it another shonen replica.....there getting pretty common these days..........time for a drastic change me thinks.....

I spotted a "Shonen replica" today too, outside my building in Parra, about 10am. He was heading up Charles St, towards Philip St and the RiverCat terminal. Black R-34 with white wheels, nice exhaust note.

Didn't get to catch the plates as I was too far away at the time.

spotted a black 32 that was crawling along in traffic behind me from the m2 tolls to pacific hwy, where he turned off :) :wavey: this was at about 7:30-8am! i was hazard lighting you but you didn't respond :( and i wasn't going to open my windows in the rain! :P

MSP i think you are the only R33 owner i hear that waves to R32's.B)

I see atleast 5-10 R33's a day in my 29kms of driving and i have never seen a wave yet.

I don't think most R33(Taxi) owners know that an R32 is a skyline.

haha, the only waves I have gotten from ppl in 33's have been a forced wave cos I waved first.. other wise they just give blank stares as they pass by

the thing is that a lot of randoms buy r33s too that arent on the forums/dontcare/uninterested in other skylines..

they just buy it coz 'yee itz a skyline maens and it goes fast maens'

only the real enthusiasts appreciate skylines enough to acknowledge other skylines on the road :)

ps: R32s own.. that is all!

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
