I spotted a VERY shiny dark red 33 with big FMIC on Caswell? drive this afternoon and got a wave! I tried to give one back but was a little slow getting the window down (dark tints). You Canberra people are actually friendly!

Also saw a nice white 32 4 door way down near Tharwa which was nice. It's the first 32 4 door I've seen in the flesh.

There's just too many in Sydney and you get barred by heaps of people, the smaller the place the better I think.

Spotted a wine red R33 GTSt in Gordon today pulled over looking at his rear wheel... we were the guys who asked if you needed help (if ur on the forums). Had a GTR kit, and a GTR badge in the grill.

Also spotted a white R33 GTST driving to Woden on Hindmarsh Drive (I think?) while I was going to Pedders at about 9:00 this morning... on that note, I have a ****ed upper ball joint so cars off the road again till I can get it fixed, doh :(

And then I saw a black 33 who also waved but I was too slow. The story of my life. The odds in Canberra are pretty good it seems.

Also, an orange Datto 1600 (my arse it was a 1600!) absolutely blew me away on Ginninderra Drive today. I might as well have been driving a Lada Niva.

that datto had a go at me last weekend as well coming around parliament house onto adelaide avenue. he waved me on to give me a go, but i just sat on my 80. he was in the bus lane too. the bastard was doing about 80-90 then did a 2 wheel burnout fishtailing it, that thing must have a fair bit of stick

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
