Helllllllllooooooooo I'm still here, just got the suspension changed in my 34 today actually. So I'll be spending a little more time driving it around now. I have some sad news though, I'm moving

Blew the cobwebs out of @Sinista32 last Sunday for a few hours. It's great to get the passion back every so often

No you just tried to give him a run. Stop telling us how you are driving like a dickhead.

Oh and i spotted Veilside R33 (well andrews old r33 anyway) at the crud workshop next too Trojan??? Rego maybe?

Anyway also spotted a grey 32GTR at Trojans and also hear that two more are booked in today for clutches! Who's been playing silly buggers then?

Yeah Andrew (new owner) is having a few little bits done, it turns out that the rubbing noise in my front right wheel when i turned (which i thought was a peice of plastic rubbing on the wheel) is actually a bent steering arm. so he's servicing it and having that fixed.

Yeah - had a bent steering arm and needed to get a new front caster rod etc to move the tyre about an inch or so forward to stop the rubbing.

And yes, would've been next door getting the rego compliance done so I can move it to my name.

Going to get the boost controller fixed up next week too so will running quite a bit more boost from mid next week. Can't wait for that!

Depending on which grey gtr your speaking about one with lip was mine, and the other grey gtr with now lip was from sydney, both in for clutches, so i would be the silly bugger :P

So i will add my own spotted. Spotted me trying to use a twin plate clutch for the first time on the way home from Mitchel

Are you sure you know what a Blue R34 GTR looks like then?

Coz it aint Horrible!

That's the stock v-spec front...

Yes, I know what an R34GTR looks like. I was going to buy one a couple of years back but couldn't find a decent one for sale.

As the guys have already suggested;no,it hasn't got a horrible looking front spoiler,but it does have it's standard V Spec' bodykit in pristine condition. That car is flat out HORN,and there would only be visually-challenged or slightly retarded people in the world that think a standard R34 GT-R looks anything but sex-on-wheels...Maybe you saw someone else?(Exactly how many OTHER Bayside Blue GT-R's could it possibly be?Was it possibly be an R34 GT-T?).Oh,spotted a silver R33 GTS-T threading thriugh the traffic on Limestone Ave on Tuesday morn';whoever it was wouldn't have spotted me-I was on my bike riding to work,clad in Lycre(TM,Patent Pending...LOL)and carbon fibre stuff...

As I already stated, I nearly bought one. I know what an R34 GTR looks like... also the GTR badges were a dead giveaway. If I was looking to buy one for 6 months I think i'd recognise one. It was not a GT-T.

I just looked through google and have yet to see an R34 GTR with the same front grill. I saw stock,vspec and vspecII.

g'day contempt! haven't seen u in a while!

Hiya, been a while. I have just been really busy with work and haven't had much spare time on my hands. That and I usually play indoor cricket or go out Friday nights so I don't get a chance to head out to the museum usually. What time do you guys usually hang out there till on Friday nights?

So,seeing as you know your 34 fronts,and the one you saw looked horrible,now I'm wondering what it actually was...Any other give-aways?

Also spotted a neat R33 GTS in white with split style 5 spoke chrome rims in Civic this arv'-pretty lady with a turtleneck jumper driving...anyone here?

      You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there

      A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not

      Shoota's R33 GT-R RB30/26

      GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣

      Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version.
