You beauty!!

A nice alive forum with plenty of talk and opinions.

I didnt know about the difference (apart from cosmetic) between the R32-34.

I have always loved the older shape of the 32 and always wanted one.

I definaly will come around to a club night and the skid pan saounds awesome!

Thanks for the feedback.

As for the $20 it was a token figure. I was really hoping to come round someones house and drool over there car without having a sales person try to sell it to me.

A club day would fit the bill perfect

true story

ive owned my 32GTR for almost 5 years now and ive been pulled over a whole of 4 times. 2 random checks. 1 roadworthy. 1 speeding fine.

Drive stupidly and you will be pulled over. it doesnt matter what you drive.

were those 2 random checks really random?...lol

agreed, drive sensibly and you will be ok....most of the time =)

2 random checks as in checked my tread and looked at the motor. 1 of those checks was from Graeme from this forum and his reasoning is cos its a skyline. he had a good chat to me and was genuinely nice. talked about his car as well.

True to a point. But if we are talking about who is more likely to be pulled over if you are both driving the same with say a Skyline vs Camry.. I think we all know the answer :D

come up to a DECA event and you can ride around the skidpan in HEAPS of modded skylines...

as long as you bring a helmet :cool:

^^^Dont do this. You'll drive straight back to Melbourne and buy one after a ride in a quick one around the backtrack :verymad:

Yeah true but thats a different point to what i was making. Im talking about sports car vs sports car such as 32 vs 33 vs 34 vs s15 etc etc. not a daily compared to a high performance vehicle.

A good point here, a cop had a choice of pulling over me in my R32GTR or the VT commodore sitting next to me. The cop chose the VT. Why? because i drove off from the lights sedately where as the VT being the hero he is left a massive burnout and easliy hit 100km'h in the 80.

Which takes me back to where i began. drive within the law and they will leave you alone. Break the law and you will get pulled over.

The people who say drive within the law and you'll be fine have clearly never felt the awful experience of being pulled over when you were driving within the law, and more sedately than the people around you...giving you an instant feeling of "WTF did I do?". Take for example operation pipedown where standard vehicles were getting reported for EPA testing, not just loud. I went 12 months without getting pulled over once, would even drive up alongside police cars without a hassle. Wondered what everyone was whinging about with police and imports, but then one day my perception changed with good reason...

Gotta agree with birds there.

I have copped 2 defect in 3 months, and one full EPa emssions test. Each time doing nothing wrong. the EPA well yea i cop that on the chin my car was loud (all fixed now)

The defects were a rip. tyres and exhaust for the first.

The second was for my wiper washes one of the four was not pointing straight. And my hand brake had one too many clicks, and to make it an Major full RWC needed he said my brake pedal didnt have enough rubber on it....WTF?

The officer was looking at my car for nearly 20mins, and that is all he could get me on. So that says to me he was gunna get me no matter what.

But there is nothing more true than drive like a flog and you will get pulled over. What kills me is we get singled out and painted with tha same brush.

My trust in Police has diminished somewhat over the last few months.

Anyway........34 GTR.

Thanks everyone!

Thats awesome.

I cant believe the cops nabbing you for wiper blades not straight and rebber worn on the brake pedal.....

Extermon8or thats a golden pic!

Whats the go if your pulled over for a mechanical or an EPA test and you got an aftermarket computer, a non standard turbo and a few of the other comon go fast mods onboard?

Are you flogged?

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
