learn throttle control in the wet lol, I can drive with the shitest tyres that were 100 a side and with 270kw I can make it not slide in the wet just control your foot.

this, best answer you'll get

ps. u were @ oct winton drift?

Moved here...

Before this totally goes off the rails, which inevitable...

I can spin the tyres in a KE Ford Laser...

It would be lucky to have what, 40fwkw? Used to be able to have it wheel spinning into 3rd which whilst amusing, was rather pointless.

So have a think about that. Totally comes down to throttle control. If you expect a 190rwkw car to have traction in the wet, then you are very naive good sir.

Any car will spin the wheels in the wet if you force it.

Failing that, I would suggest using 99% throttle instead of 100%. That'll fix it.

yeh 33 no front bar was me :P

lol nismoid my mate had one of those lasers we got a great run on chapel one night raining lined up the tram lines epic lols all the way to d'nong road from just after jam factory.. should note was a loooooooooooooooooong time ago.

but there is nothing like the lols you get out of shitb0x cars.

Come on !! You're kidding me. There are so many possibilities for a joke here I just don't know where to start. So I'll try to be serious and just say that perhaps a you should sit on your lounge at home and take your shoes off. See that thing at the end of your leg ? That's a foot. Now, see the little sausage type thingy jiggys coming off your foot ? They're toes. OK, try if you can to wiggle your toes. Good, good. Do that every night for a week and when you have full control of the nerves from your brain to your toes just take a full day off and rest.

Ok, here we go, the big day. I want you to see if you can control the movement of your right foot. Woe, woe, easy now, it may be a little out of control at first since you have never tied to control it before. Try some small rotations at first then after a month or so build up to some up down movements. I find hanging your tongue out of your mouth may help stabilise the whole area though drooling can be a problem. Give this maybe twelve months and only then will the nerves between your brain and foot be fully functional. You may now grab the keys to your new Hyundai Getz and try to drive like a member of the human race. :P

the thing that concerns me most is your toes look like sausages :(

A Mate & I both had one each, brought em @ the same time as well...

A manual one was simply the most amusing, one of the funniest cars i have owned - I remember going down the GOR in it, doing 60-80km/h around some of the corners was hilarious with the body roll and tyre squeal. It almost made the GOR 100x better considering you can never open a fast skyline up safely these days in those parts haha.

yerrhh gotta be manual scary to think they were cutting edge at some point in history i miss having crap cars that you can slam into gutters not bother locking not bother servicing an that..

serious cars are too serious

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
