not a 'line but saw a light blue/baby blue toyota 2000GT today at rooty hill driving in the opposite direction along the bridge just past the RSL. So surreal, almost rear ended the car in front as I was looking :woot:

+ a yellow 240z datto I always see getting around rooty hill/ blacktown

Not a Skyline but saw a Nissan Cube with skylinesaustralia.com sticker across the windscreen heading towards the harbour bridge this afternoon/evening.

and I thought we were traveling Ninja style and would never get spotted in that!

jeebus! I thought they only existed in GT5

spotted a silver 33 , very nice and clean, metal ink sticker and stamp in the rear garnish part thing came into my work today and i did some tyres for ya :P

should remember me , i got stuck in your bucket seat hahaha.

also the NA white r33 with black bonnet green p's i think might work for mazda west gosford

and spotted about 5 other r33's pass my work ( usually do everyday)

Spotted, waved, & beeped the Handleys 'cruising' in their yellow GTR race car in traffic very early this morning in Carlingford :D:action-smiley-069:

perfect commuter car :D

I spotted Charlie's red stealth ute this morning

jeebus! I thought they only existed in GT5

I thought so too, man if I had that, a hakosuka & a 240z I'd die a happy chappy

I was born in the wrong era :rolleyes:

gunmetal grey R34 GT? (green P-plater) tailgating me the other day, if you're on here slow down mate,

take it out on WSID wed nights :thumbsup:

two teenage looking asian guys in a black R35 GTR about 11pm tonight on the way to city along pac highway cremorne, followed them all the way to bridge.

pulled up at lights and gave them the thumbs up and asked if they wanted to 'swap'?

they giggled like school girls then gunned it on green losing serious traction (road was wet), i let them take off then went my own way.

sigh, so unfair.

Spotted a silver 34 GM30VR on cumberland hwy near m4 turn off this morning around 10am and a black 32 gtst FAT32R with gtr wing and gtr badge near bunnings ashfield on parra rd around 6pm. U guys on here?

i know that comment was from a few years back now, but just found my car on the search then. i recently just bought this car (GM30VR), so hope to see you SAU guys out and about soon!

Saw an R33 GTR this afternoon on Canal Road/Ricketty Street on the bridge over the canal.. Was that you Aphex?

I swear whoever it was pulled a face going past.. laugh.gif

If it was around 2:30-2:45ish that would've been me. Was coming back in from out west! I've given up the wave and have taken up the nod, but with my large melon it can look comical!

Spotted a stack of 33's today too, including a nice black 33 GTST along airport drive and into the M5 tunnel etc.

Yep round that time.. Mate what colour is your car?? I swear at first I thought it was midnight purple (ish) then in my mirror it was grey!

Given up the wave too.. Too many ermm.gif looks..

It's actually the factory "Dark Grey Pearl" but i know what you're saying there. I thought it was going to be midnight purple when i turned up to look at it the first time!

The car's been nicknamed "the black pearl" because everyone thinks it's a different colour... and it's a bit of a boat... and i have a red beard...

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
