Anyone else turn up to the last minute meet today? When I got there it was just me and an SS Commodore who went through two red lights to get there. I didn't want to be seen around that kind of behaviour so I left after he issued me with a minor defect notice.

Defected. No fine or NOU, just need to drop in on the pits for an inspection when I get the items changed. Cop was pretty fair/nice about it all and he could have got me on a few other things, but the targeting / chase down and subsequent blocking of one lane on a major highway to do so was pretty ridiculous given I was driving more sedately than anyone around me. The surrounding traffic must have thought it was a stolen car or something.

Saw a white R33 pass me while I was on the side of the road, anyone from here?

HIDs. Yeah minor, but fark, aside from inconveniencing me half an hour I gotta change the item and then find the time to go to Vicroads. I'd sooner have paid a fine for speeding and not have my time wasted doing all that. No reason for being pulled over other than it being a Skyline. Story of the import driver's life.

over 24 hours and no moron has come in here and told adam he is over reacting and that skylines dont get picked on... weird...

Usually people who have never been pulled over when they were doing the speed limit, by a cop who did a U turn or ran a red light (or two) to do so :cool:

Paraphrased quote from someone on here who got defected by the same car as me on the same day and contacted me in regard to it: "they said every Skyline they pulled over today expressed that they are car enthusiasts and not hoons." Whether that's in a good or bad sense, fact remains they were pulling over Skylines left, right and centre for the sake of it. I'm not whinging about it because I knew when I bought the car that it had this kind of stigma about it - but yes, anyone who denies Skylines get targeted is kidding themselves lol.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
