That was us! :D You didn't happen to drive that black R33 with the GT-R wing?

I'll send you a PM in a moment...

Gorgeous white R32 GTR last night on Old Northern Rd just before 1am. Thing looked sweet - real low over matt black rims (TE37s I think, hard to tell) and some nice dark window tint as well. Pity I wasn't in my 32 (back on the road Wednesday!). Rego on it was BDZ-86L. I think the owner spotted me keeping up with him because he squirted it away from me after we turned onto Castle Hill Rd. I was in the white BMW 525i. :bunny: Nice car.

saw wizlb today at castle hill, got some priceless advice, thanks for the info.... the prob is fixed and goes like new.....

ps: your rims are hot

Spotted Ando, Chris x 2, Jess and Dave all getting toasty warm on the lounge in front of the gas heater at the new place... :D

Oh spotted some tool in a 4wd think he was entitled to merge at my passenger door as his car was bigger, no indicator either then tailgated me like I was in the wrong :)

And a skyline on Greystanes rd bout 8ish tonight... don't know what model... I only noticed the tail lights in my review mirror.... I was turning right at the lights (obviously in a daze!) Think it was a black 32/33

AHAHA was me ;) They are TE37's.

I figured you were trying to keep up, then I couldn't see you anymore :)

gave a wave to a yellow 33 with an unpainted bonnet... somewhere... some time over the weekend :D

Also just spotted a V35 going through hornsby. Plates were... I dunno... stupid hangover...

I spotted Chriscross the person (and the car) this morning. As we both parked in the pope terrorist proofed car park.

Yea good to meet you mate :D

And we should be happy, at least no one is going to drive in there and blow up our cars now :D

Fairly stock looking silver/grey R33 on Pennant Hills Rd tonight at about 10:30. It was headed towards Carlingford and I saw it up near Thornleigh. Had red seat covers and the guy driving had a goatee. Had an exhaust and some low, stiff suspension. Also had the pretty rare EL light on the rear 'Skyline' panel. Looked cool. :)

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
