they do have a point tho, with the number of people that can afford a GTSt on the rise, and with compliance easily available on the 33, and with the 32 GTR's and GTSt's coming into 15yr compliance at the end of next yr.... the number of dicks that can own cars like ours will only increase. This could potentially lead to people generalising the fine folk in our society/club as people like them.

So either we impose vigilante style renegade skyline driver bashings... or we put up with shit from fast four primary school..

besides, who in their right mind keeps a skyline stock... lol i can just picture excel drivers reading fast fours goin out on the hunt looking for stock skylines to beat :D

Whoa funkymonkey! I only bought my r33 gtst because I couldn't afford an r34! haha

Eh, leave them be, they're just jealous because our forums aren't filled with (many) raving lunatics..hehe

Although I remember a few weeks ago after PF were dissed (on either FF or Hot4s, it's all the same to me) some of their members started posting some crazy shiznit up there. Pretty funny.

actually ... an excel turboed will hand alot of r32 and r33 their asses that was proven on the last adelaide ls1, sau drag day... but spend that same amount of money on a 33 or 32 or whatever ... and again expect the excel to get its ass handed on a platter ;) .. idiots ... how could u compare a skyline to an excel ... LOL

So true hippy

Today i went for a drive with a mate, he just bought a 93 r33 completely stock he just added pod and thats iiiiiiit.

We were rolling next to a monaro that obviously had something done to it.. new monaro i mean

well it so happened we got a set of lights, decided to see how we go being stockrock

it pulled away in 1st by second he was no longer moving away from us.. but way already about 10 metres in front and we werent gaining at all

next lights the people in the monaro couldnt get enough that theyd beaten a skyline, first thing i said

"Nice mate, nice, didnt think they were that fast, but wouldnt buy one considering there $60,000"

He says "Beat the shit outta you"

Me "This is dead stock brother, it cost my mate $15,700, imagine if he spent $44,300 on it" ;)

"I think Excel's are good - cops doesn't go pound them and fit a turbo in there...should hand a lot of the R32/R33 stocko owners a new arse."

Ummmm is this the "New" style of english they are teaching in school lately....

what the hell does that mean.... cops dont pound them ..fit a turbo in there...

maybe im just gettin old.....

Hmm you can subtract that fast, woo.

ahahahhah lol who cares... kids will turn to men one day... then they'll think the save way for the rest of their lives... "SKYLINES = SHIT" you gotta teach em while they are young.... if not physically... some should setup some eastern creek shoot outs... ahhaha lol just a thought.. or will could all just meet them up and pound them to the ground its up to u guys

leave them to their immaturity.

I dislike commodores but I don't go round forums starting "commodore haters" threads, in fact a friend of mine at work loves his V8 commodres and respect to him for building a car that would eat mine alive, that's the dfference between us and them. We have the maturity to realise that not all cars are for everyone. Some people like muscly V8's, others like all show and no go, and others again like revvy N/A's. We all have our own taste and preference. I am sure people think that my car is a Jap rice box simply because it's a japanese 4 cylinder turbo but hey, doesn't bother me because I love my car.

Take it easy fellas.

You know they just want to provoke a reaction.

They'd like nothing better at the end of the day than to have some Skyline owners register on their forum for the sole purpose of defending their rides.

The bottom line is that we're driving the cars that win on the track, strip, street and dynos.

And they're still driving shopping trolleys and their mum's cars.

Every type of car has their haters. I'm sure the WRX boys have had this sort of 'love' before us.

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
