saw R32GTR , white with meshies, i think BZO--- drove along side and then behind for a bit on epping rd last night. was at performance exhaust bbq.

then the usual yellow 33 and white 34 ICR34M (??????) in eastwood

Spotted me probably on my way home from work. Hakan fixed up the exhaust on my car a few months back. What car were you in?

Last night, saw a silver r34 Gtt at wetherill park, horsley drive servo filling up. Nice car mate, I was in the black r33 gtst

No ones seen my car yet haha, black on black r33 gtst no plate SLO-33R ? :(

Mick. Is it your car I spotted a few weeks back on Quakers Hill Parkway not far from the end near Knox?

White R34 GT with green P-plates in Quakers Hill around 3pm today (Friday) heading from Sunnyholt Road towards Hambledon Drive, I was next to you in my green Stagea.

Goldzilla this sounds just like me :)

Most days I jump onto Quakers Hill Parkway from Sunnyholt road and follow it right through. I'm sorry I didn't see you. Did you turn off soon after?

All good. :D

I turned off onto Hambledon Road, then stopped at a friend's on Bali Drive just past the school.

i was in the black gtt which drove next to /behind you for a bit - that was around 6-7pm friday night if i recall correctly? or saturday night...i think it was friday ahah.

quiet weekend didn't see many skyline

Just wondering if the guy who bought my old R33 GTST a couple years ago is on here. Asian Fellow, think he was from around the Liverpool region.

This is what the car looked like when I had it (wheels and front bar are a bit of a give away).

Just want to see how the old girl is going, if she's been reliable, what mods it has now etc...

Cheers

    • I drive the Tiguan much harder than the Skyline in all conditions, because it just grips and hooks, unlike the R33 shit box
    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
