Ever since i got my 300ZX, i kid you not, i have had someone try to drag me at every second set of lights. It's mostly wankers in V6 commodores that think they are michael shumacher but i have had others, including older people like an old woman in a mazda 6. So tell me do you skyline boys get the same treatment?

If ppl pull up next to me at the lights, I don't bother looking at them and stare off at what ever is in front of me and when the lights turn green I drive off at my own pace.

If they speed off that's up to them, but mostly ppl have been letting me go first, again just drive off at my own pace.

yeah i went from owning a modded commodore to now a basic R34 skyline.. and every1 wants to freakin drag!!!

but as said above mainly the commos and p platers... its really annoying lol

occasionally ill see another jap car that wants to put it down but its not as common as the commo's/common p platers

^^ LOL!

I have had all sorts drag me at the lights... Range Rovers, BMW 318i's, Commos, Falcons...

VW, Ford Territories, Mitsubishi Magnas etc. Chasing after me down the freeway...

You just wonder, if they really have to prove that they are faster...

Lol. Yes they do have to prove it. They have a lot more chance on the street when were not interested then on the track when we are.

At first when i got my 33 i noticed lots of people looking my direction then planting it. Lately i havent noticed it nearly as much as i used to. Had the window down at night time one night at a set of lights and got asked to race for pinks. I just looked at em (p platers in a camry or apollo or something similar) and couldnt be bothered even thinking up a smart reply.

As mentioned above. I do the same, any set of traffic lights put on the deep stare into the distance as far away from the car next to me as possible.

Why would they think that they're Michael Schumacher? Schmacher doesn't drag race.

i dont know where you guys live but i dont get anyone. very rarely i might get some people at the lights or sit up my arse ( but its easy to get rid of them, just a tap of the brake). and if a car is up my arse its always a bmw x5 lately. i hate them and the drivers, they are very pushy.

the drivers arent trying to be like michael schumacher they are trying to be paul walker.

haha it seems obvious to me, so they can say they 'beat' a skyline, like any skyline is some mythical race car. I wouldnt be giving in to temptation if I had an N/A, it could lead to shame and smartarse comments from bogans lol

Well my 300ZX is 131rwkw so it's not slow by any means.

Oh yea man all the time!

It sux really cause sometimes these wankers almost cause accidents. Like today, Almost 3 times!. Its amazing, why on earth they try to race u when ur driving normally. Ive come to the conclusion because of the angry note of the RB, they think your giving it more than you really are... who knows. I think with alot of the bogans however its all Bragging rights.

happens all the time.

i just flutter or gate them as i go past :(

Agreed... spool normally makes them shutup... some makes them more wild... but then if u do it a few more times they realize ur not going to do it... and fang off to the next "super" drag race against a magna..

^^ LOL!

And most of those cars you named would be quicker than an N/A skyline to begin with lol

I don't know what it is, but I've had my skyline for a year and a half and no one around here is game enough to line up with me! I'm yet to have a v8 commodore driver sit up to the line with me yet, they all seem to want to sit a car length back....

Ford Territory, Range Rover and BMW 318i is faster then a N/A Skyline?

BTW he has a 300ZX.

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
