Saturday morning/lunchtime spotted 2 maroon R33's, on both occasions drivers were clearly looking down texting while driving and didn't see me wave. Switch on ya idiots, if you stack into a tree it'll be another kick in the nuts for performance/modified vehicles cos seriously who's guna see a skyline wrapped around a tree and think "i bet they were driving safely and not speeding".

I had another sweet road rage incident haha.

Had a commonwhore follow me down Barton highway sitting I close for my liking.

Did the old tap on the brakes and slowed to about 60 in 100k zone but they still wouldn't over take.

Ended up finally flying past me on double line with a huge puff of smoke

Time and time again it kills me to see the 'car enthusiasts' they interview - were they ever to interview a proper enthusiast or come to a proper event, and write a story without putting a bad spin on it from the beginning, things would be a different story.

I know! Why do they always pick such total dumbarses?!

We've talked many times about inviting them to one of the bigger, properly organised events in Sydney (such as the Anniversary Cruises for example) but we just don't trust them!

At the end of the day, we'd have NO SAY on how the story is run. And we all know what that means! It's better to try to keep our name away from them altogether.

After working in the media for 20+ years my best advice is ...... Don't do it.

Journalists will rarely do the story you want to tell, they will do the story that will be the most sensational regardless Of how many facts get bent, twisted or completely blown apart. There is a simple equation .. News must get ratings, ratings equals viewers/readers/listeners, which equals a demand for advertising which of course equals money .. And that's all that counts.

No one will want to watch a story about a bunch of Skyline drivers cruising, sticking to the speed limit and drinking milkshakes, so the journos don't want to know about that stuff. Show the public a story of a group of people that everyone from 9 to 90 should fear, in screaming turbo charged visions of death doing burnouts, now there's an attention getter (even bigger when you chuck in a few P platers)

Tread very carefully using journalists to get recognition, think about who or what they are working for first.

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
