Last night 3 little sh1ts (aged: 12, 8, 7 - approx) rang my doorbell. My wife calls me over and says 3 kids wanna wash your car....

I go outside and these 3 little sh1ts are asking me if its turbo, what top speed is, blah, blah blah....

Then they start BEGGING me to let them wash it! They kept going on and on!

Then one of them looks at the speedo and says: "It only goes to 180, my mums commodore is faster coz it goes to 220", and I p1ssed myself.

I had to put it in the garage coz they wouldn't go away!

Love pulling up next to try hards, example...gemini's with 3" tips and HSV stickers or just tossers with ricey stickers all over little shit heaps.(how can people not realise that shit just looks gay?)

If they have a girl in the passenger seat my favourite call is "How much for ya missus" and wave a five buck note.

i was the p plater in the r33 that the old yob in the f100 yelled"rich boys die young"

the funny thing was i was with about 4 other p platers in cars that cost 3 or 4 times what mine did.

i love yobos they have no idea

Every time I read this thread it CRACKS me up and I am still smiling for hours afterwards!!!

I don't so much get anything said to me but what I do cop is lots of attitude -

Firstly cos I am an oldie and secondly cos I am a woman and thirdly becuase I own a Skyline. I am FOREVER getting wankers in Celicas, V6 Commondores et. al. wanted to have a go at me...You can see them thinking "Oh s... a Skyline! Oh s... a WOMAN! OMG she's OLD" - then I drop the clutch and go for it...... :D:D

Most of the time I don't bother and that is the worst because you can sense their self-satisfaction BUT every now and then I let fly - to see the look on their faces is better than priceless!!!!!!!!!!!!

For Gawd's sake a week or so back I even had a guy in a little Toyota WORK TRUCK trying to have a go at me. Puuhlease... :headspin: :headspin:

I think its a common drawback of owning a skyline, you get everyone falcodore wanting to drag you. i get them all the time, i just get to 60/80 as fast as i can, then stay there. tey make it there duty to do the loser flyby with their hands out the window either thumbs up or birdies. i value my licence and car too much to go speeding through the city.

i've only just moved into a new place, and there's a guy up the road with a WRX, he makes it his duty to drive past my place every night whenever i've left my car out the front to rev his car as he goes past.

I've even had some guy in the city (drunk) say, "i wasn't pissing on your car mate, i'd never do that to a skyline, its too cool, is that a GTR? make it drift, bag it up mate, do some nuts" yeah, ill do that with cops across the road watching my every move.

and if i pass someone on the road coz they're going slower than posted speed limit, they speed up and drive past me staring. its disturbing sometimes.

after drilling a VS SS with some work done in a stock looking mr30 4 door with (at the time) standard 14" rims, the woggy dude open his window and says:

"thats not standard"

i laughed but he was cool, the first and only time i ever did over a V8 and the dude was impressed

had a teenager in a vs want to have ago.............

after i handed him his arse he pulled up and asked me how much i payed

:(

I pulled alongside an Evo 6 one time in my Fiesta and thought i'd try to beat him off the lights for a laugh.

I nodded at him, lights turned and i did the best start i've ever done. Then he must have done the earliest, slowest shift ever because i started to get away from him, then we reached 60 and kept it there. I couldn't believe it!

His girlfriend sat next to him was scowling the whole time as i moved into his lane after the drag. Maybe it was because i won, maybe it was because he had raced, i don't know.

I know that any fool in an Evo can beat a Fiesta so the guy probably wasn't too bothered about racing me.

I think its a common drawback of owning a skyline.

It's the same with any performance car mate.

With my dad's Ultima GTR it used to worry him because he'd over take kids in

xr3is and other cheap 150+bhp cars and they'd try to keep up with him round the corners and stuff. My dad was worried that those types of people are the ones that end up killing other people due to their bad driving.

It was funny one time when he was on a motorway and he came up behind an Aston Martin DB7, so the DB7 went for it accelerating up to top speed as quickly as possible, so my dad stayed with him, the DB7 hit top speed and pulled into the next lane and my dad went sailing past him. At least the DB7 flashed his lights in acknowledgement.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
