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!

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
