Bonzalite: Hmmm ..... i guess i understand your polarity theory ..... its really a real life explanation of of the yin - yang theory. I agree with you in saying that perhaps sexes to impinge upon one another's territory ....... in Australia maybe, in the US maybe and maybe in other countries too. However if we look at society as global whole then is their really a tsunami of energy or an imbalance in the 'polarity of nature'.

Not in my opinion, not in any of the south american countries i grew up in, defiantely not in the asian country i was born in, and definately not in many european countries i travelled when i was in my early twenties.

Countries like Australia dont have an assymetric information gap between sexes and it doesnt have 2000 years of culture like many of the other countries do. It is in essence a new country, not weighed down by prehistoric customs or misconceptions of grandeur. Thats what I like about it ...... its always G'Day mate.

So is there really an imbalance in the polarity of nature, is there really an imbalance of the yin and yang. No ...... not in a global scale, not when when u think of how imbalanced it is in some other countries. If anything it is more balanced now i say.

So yeah maybe Australian guys and other men in similiar western countries are becoming softer, more docile, more femenine. The reality is however that the stereotypical 'John Wayne' type of man is no longer necessary in modern civilisation. Our women dont need to be protected for fear they be raped, or conned, or taken away from us or mistreated in any number of ways. Why should we fear situations like this, we live in a free society where in most cases these notions are now alien.

Perhaps it is true that men these days are confused as to what or how we should act. Its because we are the new frontier, an emerging species of new man, dude just enjoy it.

ecenshu : hehe menza i dont think so. This would be light toilet humour to them. Have u ever read 1 of their monthly newsletters. The one i read came with some sort of nahavo language code at the front and the whole newsletter had to be decoded before u could even read it. At the back of the newsletter it said if it took u longer than 3 hours to decode and read this u are normal. and then it said Ha Ha

Dude it took me 3 days to get there.

this thread is outta control, I agree with CWest, if you spend too much time trying to analyse life, and work out whats going on - well your missing out, just live every day like its your last and all will be good, I am sure if you analysed anybody enough with the right focus, you could make them out to be either a saint or a sinner:p

And as for your line pulling chicks, well if that happens, good luck - everybody has different methods of pulling members of the opposite sex (or same sex if you are that way inclined)

As for yin/yang, the very nature of it means that eventually all shall be in balance all on its own, without anybody worring about it - try reading the tao te ching - if you can understand much of it, eventually you may realise it all (life) means nothing except what you make of it.

bugger, now I am getting deep

cwest, i'm not into the john wayne male thing. that is not what i am talking about at all. i am talking about emasculation of men. a properly "masculated" man is not suddenly john wayne. that is a parody, hyperbole cartoon character.

i get the idea that you don't understand what i am really meaning. nature is in balance no matter what. yin is in the yang, some yang is in the yin. the emasculation/defeminization of society is a result of abusive ubringings. and it is being reinforced in western culture as if it is ok and marketable, as the process is obvious throughout media and general conduct. being male is being taken as a disease today, as if natural masculinity were aberrant behavior. nature itself will ultimately balance out anything. even if it takes a mass extinction or something as history has taught us this. there is a thread about "political correctness," and this is a direct result of an emasculated society.

the tsumani i speak of is symbolic of energy as a whole, particularly sexual energy. it is omnipresent and all-emcompassing. like in the motion of the planets, or, for example, the females' cycle is larger than any one individual to control or possess. it is primal and otherworldly. this is an example of what i am meaning. this topic, generally, is difficult to convey, as i am seeing. many bring their own precepts to the table that further alter the point here. i think we generally agree, however, without the other fully knowing it.

what really matters overall, imo, is how you work with what you have.

cheers. :(

My friend your outlook of life is just too complicated, not because u think too much but because u give a shyyt. True, each individual adds to the this energy u speak of, which is a theory, a fantasy if u like. Such energy does not exist in reality though its plainly evident that it can exist in ones imagination. I know u dont mean to say that such a tsunami exists rather u are trying to explain the consequences of society in a way that may make sense to something that can not really be put into words.

I think understand the general flow of your argument, that there is a sense of repression (especially sexual) caused by the advent of society. This repression causes a discharge to feed this tsunami u speak of and society and more specifically the emascualtion of society feeds more and more energy into this tsunami.

I guess its not the theory that I dont understand rather its the point u are trying to make, perhaps u are foretelling the doom of man (literaly).

All in all i dont really think that society media and so forth is actually feminizing society much. I just think society is reaching a point where men and their traditional roles are not needed. Guys like me (i am actually quite macho and a male chauvenist) are just not the most efficient type of male, because our way of lifestyle does not contribute much to society. I understand that, do i give a shyyyyt, not really.

The whole point is we are born into this world, raised by family, taught by society and media to act a certain way be a certain way. But one day u should realise that only u can make yourself happy, that only you have the power to take what u want. The war should never be about you and society, it will always be about you and yourself.

Real power comes with knowing that u have a choice in life. Dude, by the way u talk u are certainly smart and I know u understand the complexities and shortcomings of society. What I dont understand is y u give a rats arse.

Hehe ... y are we replying to a thread about picking up chicks in our skylines. Obviously it was never meant for indepths discussions.

oh no....big words....complex issues...

head.....about.....to .....explode.... :Bang:

J/K...this thread has its different perspectives and its refreshing :) Keep at it guys...

OT: Anyone read "Art of War"? Now that's also interesting...if you can decode it.

i dont know about pullin chicks... but yeah

when i first got my liner i had a long term relationship, that ended soon after (various reasons...) i rekon she was jealous i used to call the car "my baby" ahaha..

ive had a few comments from chicks, a stack of looks and DEFINATELY have a stack more numbers of both guys n gals since i got my car (new friends etc) but yeah...

will always be interesting to see what happens in the future....

yes. yes. yes. you are pretty much speaking for me. in the pocket, mate. you see it. my argument about feminization is tied to people, namely men, giving away their power. we do it all the time. both sexes. i seek to recover it, as it is very subtle. that's all i really mean. the recovery process is ongoing, like an addict in recovery - it is the same thing. it is more about "self-empowerment through your own gender" rather than "strict sex roles." you are entitled to feel that society is not as feminized as i make it out to be. ultimately, as you state, only you (the individual) can make yourself happy regardless of what society wants. who knows what it wants.

damn. if i had a skyline, i'd just might go out to pick up some chicks! (just kidding)

what kind of 'liner do you have, btw?

:wassup:

R34 GT Black with CWest kit and a few bolt ons. If i wanted to pick up chicks i would of got the turbo..... anyways had enough attention when i had a S2 r33 GTS-T 3 years ago, trust me u dont want the kind of attention it brings..... unless u are really young ...... or really horny ...... HEY im young ...... im also horny ..... am i missing something ?

    • jeebus. glad you weren't under it while performing the stunt. Also thanks for the link to the wheel measurer, exactly what I needed
    • In the older stuff there were very significant differences 2wd to 4wd, for example Stagea had strut front end for 2wd and double wishbone for 4wd so it was not minor to swap. From poking around the 2wd v37, it *looks* like it might be more possible; some of the parts specifically have "2wd" stamped on them which suggests the platforms are more similar. You'd still want to start with a 4wd half cut to swap stuff from though. I'd suggest if you don't have a tune on the ECU you don't really need one on the trans either. Throttle mapping is in the ECU side (and you can always use a Roar Pedal if you want the throttle to actually respond to your foot), and really if you are happy with the stock power you probably accept the stock trans behaviour too....its all made to be "sporty" not racey.
    • So, updates. I have not washed the car since it came back from Tassie. I've driven it around a bit but not got around to actually sorting it out. I DID raise it because I cracked the rear bar leaving a hotel which was very distressing. Interestingly, the car drives more compliant now that it's raised a fair bit (5mm front, 15mm rear). Also noticed that my FR height was 10mm lower than FL. So that's now sorted out, too. I also bought this and had it printed: https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/1576422240/wheel-and-tire-fitment-tool-universal?ref=shop_home_feat_1&dd=1&logging_key=08f604d9fa4cc383550ba985e6ac85cd5cac7fbb%3A1576422240 Now, if I was smart I would have taken my brake calipers off to actually use this correctly but it was evident enough to me that in the region where the caliper was... there was nothing to hit suspension/guard/arm wise. So I'm going with "it'll be fine" after using the tool to hopefully very precisely measure the wheel clearance. Also while doing this, I had the very VERY bad idea of jacking one of the wheels/suspension arms up while the rest of the car was on jack stands. I did this to see how the arm would travel. This all was well and good until the car slid off the stands and went through a fence. So don't do that. Incredibly nobody was hurt and there was only minor damage to the rear bumper as the car didn't have far to slide, and had 3-4 wheels on it. The only damage turned out to be the fence itself which was easy to fix, and a little bit of damage to the fibreglass rear bumper trim. I had already planned to try a touch up paint kit to fix the time I drove into my garage door to see if it'd help in the interim before I get it fixed properly. I used the Dr Colorchip kit after looking online and seeing everyone talking about it. Yes it's made for chips and not huge broken missing pieces and I'll be 500% recommending it for stone chips after using it for stupid things like me. This took about ... 10 minutes and looking at the half assed photo the 30 second job I did on the bumper corner was almost perfect just by using the tiny little brush and painting it in. The sealact stuff to remove over-painting is really useful, so if/when I do it again I'll likely slather the touch up paint well over it and then clean it up with the cleaning solution. The wheels should arrive in a couple of weeks. I am still kinda confident after doing a stupid amount of measuring (and borrowing a set of 18x10.5+15) that they will not fit because I overlooked something, somehow and flew too close to the sun. ALSO R34 GTR guard liners do not fit on a GTT. I bought the undertray brake duct guides and had the wonderful problem of them not fitting my intake, my oil cooler and the liners themselves were even worse. Attempting to fit them won't work in general - You would have to cut them up as another poster mentioned as the bodywork is different on the GTT. At least I can try to resell them. So instead of cutting those up, I cut up my old already-cut-up GTT liners and extended them by using some PP plastic and drilling some 8mm holes for some nissan clips for the 'extra' bit. Because I was happy to cut them I was able to mount them pretty damn forward so I now have some semblance of guard liners, and the brake vents seal the bumper from the bottom. It sort-of-looks like this, to give some idea - If you look at the GTR and then the GTT this is when I realised that I needed to seriously measure as the inside of the rim area is entirely, entirely, entirely different and could not take any internet measurements for granted.   
    • If you are Ecutek tuned then these TCU tunes are anywhere from $550 to $700 usd. If you are not ECUTEK tuned, then it gets costly!    
    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
