Hey Keir, you probably won't get a really positive response to that in this section of the forum.

Personally, I don't think its some of your best work, we all get grief at some point driving imports, because of the "guilt by association" reputation they have. This is EXACTLY how it happens. I like a burnout as much as the next guy, but faark, in the street? Youtube? How original. Great piece of footage for Today Tonight's next "Import Driving Hoons" story.

I'll be honest with you, if you did that in my street; I'd tell you to piss off and take it to a track. If I saw you do it again, I'd be giving your rego to the police.

We all have a responsibility to think a little bit about this kind of thing, otherwise, the cars, and the lifestyle we love will be taken away by simpering, sooky, politicians looking for an easy vote. Then you'll be driving a bloody Camry wondering how it all went so wrong.

That said, hope the rebuild goes well, looking forward to seeing some pics of it ON A TRACK!

this was in the back quarter of an industrial area in the middle of the night in a dead end street. he spent 30 minutes trying to find the most out of the way place on location on a return test drive.. my mate couldnt help himself.

daleo - fair call i cant understand where your coming from. - it was reckless..

i actually wasnt driving. :whistling:

was the first night we got it boosting right.. and my mate decided he was keen to see if it could finally boost a burnout.

its actually from weeks ago i wasnt going to post it but thought it was amusing. :)

i shouldve gone with my first hunch and not posted this.. heh

This took on a bit of a life of its own eh?

I'm the first to admit to some monumentally stupid car behaviour in the past, some of the other posts give the impression they've never done a skid.

You won't get any more criticism from me.

Get going on that rebuild.

Cheers, Dale

The fact that this is "in the back quarter of an industrial area in the middle of the night in a dead end street" is no excuse - it's still on the street and as has been said, it's videos and posts like these that bring a bad name to the whole car community, especially Skylines.

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
