Lol 60% of skylines you see in NZ are bogan ass skid hacks which get the living shit thrashed out of them

Haha yup, and at any one time a good 15-20% of the bogan ass skid hacks are impounded for sustained loss lol

Not speaking from personal experience... :(

haha yea nz is flooded with so many jap imports it isnt long before they're within the price range of some very low calibre individuals and hence most of them end up in impound or crashed or looking like they should be. its a crying shame really.

This one i'm pretty sure belongs to a Southern Skylines member. It is her daily driver family car too. :P Thats an R32 GT-R spoiler on the back as well, which got painted the same colour as the R34. When she was looking at the car she didn't like the fact it had no rear spoiler, and the dealership just happened to have an R32 one lying around.

Can you describe any other Skylines you saw in Dunedin? ;) Haven't seen the white one before i don't think.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By V35Newbie · Posted

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      By Duncan · Posted

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.

      Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
