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.

Black R33 S1 with big Chromies on Lhotsky st just Now.

Gave him a 2nd gear Spooling and BOV with a Wave, got a nod. :yes:

That was me. and the rims are not big its 18" Running 265 rears and 235 front.

It only comes out on weekend bought it 4 years ago and only done like 20000kms on it, sits in my garage all the time next to my brothers daily R34GTT. I think he was spotted few days ago by someone on here who drives a Red R34 with vic number plate.

So, again I spotted the black R35 GTR in my street. But there is a bit of a story this time.

SO LETTUCE BEGIN, I spotted this black R35 GTR pulling into my street as I was starting my car up - I wasted no time in getting Rosie's phat ass on the road to finally find out where this guy lives. I fenged it down the road on a cold engine (Sorry Rosie - but sometimes you gotta take one for the team) and chucked a hard left (Where the GTR went) as I was prowling the street I notice this blue looking car which looks similar to Rosie (Slightly) as I drive by I notice that it's a R34 GTR bayside blue sitting on the edge of the road facing me, as I take a deep breath and slowly passing by I notice the R34 GTR's window is down with someone in it, I look at him like some kid in a toy shop, mouth wide open and eyes glued (Sorry kids in front of me, but I was willing to either hit you or hit the curb - my eyes weren't going off this baby), as I looked stunned - the owner of the R34 GTR looks straight at me and gave me a nod; as I attempt to do a "cool guy" nod I realised that my neck was so stiff from keeping eyes on this car...that I almost hit my forehead on the steering wheel in attempt to send the nod that I received back in respect. So after making a fool of myself I carry on looking for this black R35 GTR that prowls my street. I chuck a few turns and lost the bad boy, assuming it was garaged before I could get a glimpse. As I was exiting a side street I finally drive pass the R35 GTR with 2 asian looking fellas standing behind it.. eyes once again glued on the GTRs of the world - I look at this black ass in amazement as I get stared down from the two owners. No time to pay my respect with a nod or wave, I simply stared ever so rudely, but I didn't care, it was a R35 GTR. As I was rolling passed the R35, I noticed the R34 GTR right in front of me, I find out exactly where this R35 GTR lives and chucked a right with a gear snap to show these GTR owners I am of honour to own a Skyline, as I go to change gear again.... I crunched..........

NOOOOO - I'm now in hiding.

GTR's are owned by 2 asian brothers. Big brother drives the R35 and the younger one drives the R34. Last time i had a chat with them found out that the R34 had a oil leak

White R34 heading in the opposite direction to Jeremy and I on Kingsford Smith this arvo.

Edit* Silver R34 with F&F type stripe on rear Quarter just drove past my house.

Pretty sure he lives around there - I have been driving with him to walk couple times. He's not shy to give his car a kick haha

Drove past your work again today 4pm, no Stagea :(

Also, would you believe I work in the suburb but until last week had no idea there was that new road that goes up from near the Monaro to join Gladstone Street? lol

It's only there sometimes, otherwise its parked in manuka at the missus work :)

Yeh catches a lot of people by surprise. It's quicker coming into fysh but takes longer at those lights leaving haha

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?

      My BMW E39 528i touring

      Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov

      R32 Sedan - Grip and Drift (have my cake and eat it too build)

      yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
