^^ HEY Daz man,

Yea i raced that R33 once, never doing that again,

Anyway, I recon we should start and official 'GEELONG THREAD', Yea CAPSLOCK coz im serious.

Someone do it.

Also, Skylines dont hang out at the water front, Coz we are smarter than Holden/ford drivers,

Either that or out cars are more un-roadworthy =p

Kaz, you sure do love Geelong so much.

May I ask of what's special about this town?

ive had a skyline for 2 and a half years and have never been pulled over which is nice...

also never getting caught in heavy traffic as i hate crawling bumper to bumper....

thats my thoughts

Hadn't thought about the traffic...

I haven't been pulled over in 4 years, that is in Melbourne, it's all down to your driving style but won't ramble too much about it.

yer thats true about driving style actually, good point... and the fact i dont cut hot laps in circles around town for hours on ends.

i wouldnt like to live in a city smaller then geelong though... i like geelong but any smaller would do my head in i think lol

lol I get pulled over and defected (generally in Epping) when casually driving back from the shops on a Thurs night x11ty

Meanwhile I drive like a tard through Brooklyn, in a hurry, flogging it from every set of lights.. and he pulls me over for like 2secs then I can go..

Driving style has nothing to do with it :P

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
