Some of you may know I have the R up for sale and recently I stuck an FS sticker on the rear windscreen.

Ever since doing that I have had a lot of "performance" cars try and run me... not that I bite :( Notably an RX8, EVO7, Subbi Liberty, New WRX and a Corolla I think. I just like roundabouts as I power through them and the morons then speed passed me like some f*kn grinning hero who has to prove himself :)

Must be the season for try hard wannabe's or they are just trying to get my number down, who knows

:);)

I don't understand it really, I even have time to indicate out of the roundabouts. The cars in question are no match for a GTR, the drivers are dreaming.

If I can pass this car on with the dignity I retain as a member of this vibrant community then I have done myself proud as a Skyline owner.

Can I get a Ahem, heh, I think so

:P

its just the dicks up ur way, i was up that way friday arvo and was continuely harrassed by ppl to race,

some hero in a gold v6 auto gas powered VL with sick rims tried to get me to have a go for ages and some clown in a stock last model WRX also raced up behind me then next to me, this is really the first time i have experianced ppl trying to race me for a very long time, i aint got no GTR but my car would still easily smoke both these, luckily i have matured alittle over the last couple of years, other wise it would have been game on.

some times its just not worht the petrol.

aww man, serious convo, I was troll hunting :banana:

Oh well, SV6 powwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrr

I need to race now, all antsy after the F1, I am so awesome it hurts :P

Ve sv6 methanol drinking twin turbo, on NOS! will destroy you all!

nah seriously its my drive car for work and its slow, and the only thing it has going for it is the fact it has better aerodynamics due to the hail storm.. BUT i reckon id still chop everyone in this thread in it! i know GTR's and their all slow and cant handle and stuff..

Yeh it's Funny and Entertaining to see other People drag in u a Skyline... I just let them go if they try to..

I kinda think about the other Drivers on the Road.. I had New Ford Turbo 6.. Sped up n on my ass coming on the the freeway..

i didn't do anything i just moved to the other lane n continued as normal :-) but when i'm on the Track on a Track Day it's a different Story :D

haha look forward to it.. surely your referring to my sv6 work vehicle haha:)

na theres 50 billion identical ones of them around, impossible to tell who it is. meant if i see your gtr

the best is when your in a really slow car and you try race faster cars, people usually get really serious about it, its hilarious

hahah yeah im hearin ya.. if im drivin a shitter (sv6 for example) i love given it a rev at the lights to "G" some hero next to me up, and then watch him drop it at the lights and chuckle to myself as i cruise slower than normal :)

lol

me and a mate were on our way to barbagello drifts just today. this legitimate bogan looking lunatic probably in his 40's, in a stock vt v6 ute sped up beside us and said the following

"HEY MAN I GOT ONE OF THOSE.. 720 BRAKE HORSE POWER..." (was in an r33 gts-t)

"oh yeah? you going to the drifts?"

"NAH MATE...IIH#$UOGHOFU&*($... THIS IS MY RALLY CAR"

gives us a wave and then floors it, gets ahead of us probably at around 70-80kmh. before i know it his car is sideways, fishtailing about 4-5 times, manages to regain control and speeds off.

far out couldnt stop laughing, was one of the funniest encounters ive had.

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
