It's more than possible that it is the same car, was the bar in primer? The guy who bought it lived in Mt Druit though so it wouldn't exactly be local.

Now I have a GTR!

Oooh noice!

Hope to see it soon :P

some guy pulled up next to me in a black 32 and asked if my car was a gtr :P

Dude I kid you not some guy pulled up next to me in Penrith tonight in a 32 and asked me the same thing, I think his was blue though not black, num plate was DR something, it was auto and NA, his gf in the passenger seat was an absolute BABE and kept tellin me to give it to my car the whole way back on the GWH lol.

i was at the petrol station and someone asked me if my skyline was one of those twin turbo doobewackas lol

another time, the guy at kfc drive thru asked me if my 180sx was a skyline.

anyhow.. back to my spottteddd

this was in St Leonards at about 11:30pm.. he pulled up on the passengers side and I had to open the door to hear him cos my window wont go down lol..

Spotted that car ive got no idea wtf it is.. Like a old 300zx but I know its not .. Its one of those cars hard to get/see in Aust.

Anyways.. Some blondy driving it like she stole it, as if that aint a turn on :)

Gave her a wave neways ;) Got one back woot

Oh chatswood, about 5:30PM next to the station, SAU stickers on mirrors

MZR 200

The plates on her line are MZR 33T

I spotted some dude who looked JUST LIKE comic book guy infront of me at the petrol station, filling up his old ass land cruiser with Shell V Power Racing... That thing must have had a 1000000000 litre tank cause he took forever...

He then went in to pay, didn't move his car forward so I waited some more...

THEN on the way back he decided to check out my bonnet... nice and close... for a short while...

I swear to god, if I didn't unhook my horns temporarily, he would have gotten a blasting!

LOL Steve.. when i was filling up on Wednesday some hippie dude in a volvo was putting LPG in his car, didnt move forward so i could get petrol (2 sep pumps).. so i waited... and waited.

Then his wallet was in a bag in the boot, and he couldn't open the zipper. He eventually did, got the cash out, put the wallet back in the bag and then zipped it up.

Walked so slowly to the servo, paid, then came out, and was looking for a bin to put his receipt in...

Finally found one, came back, started his volvo, then put it in reverse.. and im thinking "what in the hell are you doing?"

Then he put it in drive and drove off...

Spotted a white R33 GTST today leaving westfield tuggerah today in the wet.

    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
    • See if you can thermal epoxy a heatsink or two onto it?
    • The other problem was one of those "oh shit we are going to die moments". Basically the high spec Q50s have a full electric steering rack, and the povo ones had a regular hydraulic rack with an electric pump.  So couple of laps into session 5 as I came into turn 2 (big run off now, happily), the dash turned into a christmas tree and the steering became super heavy and I went well off. I assumed it was a tyre failure so limped to the pits, but everything was OK. But....the master warning light was still on so I checked the DTCs and saw – C13E6 “Heat Protection”. Yes, that bloody steering rack computer sitting where the oil cooler should be has its own sensors and error logic, and decided I was using the steering wheel too much. I really appreciated the helpful information in the manual (my bold) POSSIBLE CAUSE • Continuing the overloading steering (Sports driving in the circuit etc,) “DATA MONITOR” >> “C/M TEMPERATURE”. The rise of steering force motor internal temperature caused the protection function to operate. This is not a system malfunction. INSPECTION END So, basically the electric motor in the steering rack got to 150c, and it decided to shut down without warning for my safety. Didn't feel safe. Short term I'll see if I can duct some air to that motor (the engine bay is sealed pretty tight). Long term, depending on how often this happens, I'll look into swapping the povo spec electric/hydraulic rack in. While the rack should be fine the power supply to the pump will be a pain and might be best to deal with it when I add a PDM.
    • And finally, 2 problems I really need to sort.  Firstly as Matt said the auto trans is not happy as it gets hot - I couldn't log the temps but the gauge showed 90o. On the first day I took it out back in Feb, because the coolant was getting hot I never got to any auto trans issues; but on this day by late session 3 and then really clearly in 4 and 5 as it got hotter it just would not shift up. You can hear the issue really clearly at 12:55 and 16:20 on the vid. So the good news is, literally this week Ecutek finally released tuning for the jatco 7 speed. I'll have a chat to Racebox and see what they can do electrically to keep it cooler and to get the gears, if anything. That will likely take some R&D and can only really happen on track as it never gets even warm with road use. I've also picked up some eye wateringly expensive Redline D6 ATF to try, it had the highest viscosity I could find at 100o so we will see if that helps (just waiting for some oil pan gaskets so I can change it properly). If neither of those work I need to remove the coolant/trans interwarmer and the radiator cooler and go to an external cooler....somewhere.....(goodbye washer reservoir?), and if that fails give up on this mad idea and wait for Nissan to release the manual 400R
