Hmm, interesting topic.

If I remember correctly, I once knew a gentleman in Sydney with a White R33 GTS25T which had a GTR badge on it..... maybe thats another case for the books :rofl::rofl::P

GT-R badges are for GT-R's, you can put it on the bloody roof if you want to :rofl:

MEMENTO's car is not badd. Considering its a real GTR and it looks alright there.

so what if those GTR badges came with the car ? my car came with GTR badges (front & rear)

and the first thing I did to the car was take them off. The dealer was like acting weird coz

he thought I was silly to remove them badges. I smiled and said to him "coz its not a GTR" :rofl:

having a number plate that says its totally different car, its pretty .. hmm ..

like having an Impreza RX and putting HOT STI or something .. my 0.002 cents

You mean the one that was taken off the day that the car was purchased from the previous owner only to reveal two big screw holes underneath? :rofl:

and nooooo.... No you can't.

Merli, you are the ring leader of all shit fights.  If it's not special boost controllers, it's penis wheels or even maybe a GTR badge that's a little lost. :rofl:

I do my best :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

HMMMM is it sorta like have a r33 GTST and then buying the plates HKS33 is that the same thing or is that an exception, wow i wouldnt mind an offical HKS car if your selling it ......OH the IRONY......

Also my .3 cents the badges arent moving coz paint might be faded or even worse...i can live with them there i suppose

:) bagging my plates when you have HKS33 on a fairy stock Nissan skyline

my 2 cents...

first of all Id just like to say to OAK I think its really mature that you took the comments with a grain of salt and just had a bit of a laugh bout it all cos after all its all a matter of OPINION.

I dont think that merli meant any malice out of this either, we all know that he likes to stir a bit of shit from time to time and this is just another great example. I would probably say that it was not a good idea to single out the person by showing their license plate in a public forum cos then it gets personal and people get offended (as in M3M3NTO's case) as oppose to having a bit of a laugh bout it all.

M3M3NTO I think that you need to think about the way that OAK handled the remarks and the way you did. At the end of the day, as I have already stated, its all a matter of opinion and yes it is YOUR car and you do whatever you want with it... if someone doesnt like it then tuff shit. However, I think that your comments aimed at taking the piss out of OAK's car were a bit malicious, things like:

"THE OAK maybe you should do your self a favour and remove your badge or at least place it in the right spot. And since you wanna be a picky little fella why dont you remove you STICK ON Bonnet Pins too and get the real deal."

dont need to be said cos I think its going beyond the joke. I apologise in advance tho to M3M3NTO if Im wrong on this and your just joking but thats not how I read it. To me tho, it seems hypocritical to tell someone as you did that its your car and you can do whatever you want to it only to turn around and rip into someone elses car and their choice of mods. Having a laugh bout it all would have probably been the wiser option.

But again, my apologies if I misread your post

Anyway, its just my 2cents.

Me and The Oak are always giving each other shit, its all about the laugh at the end.

I didnt mean the post to sound like it did, but I would have liked to be informed before someone positng my pic and bagging it, as I would have liked to blur the plates, but hey its all done know, I dont really give a shit.

In my Opinion if you drive a skyline you should respect all other skylines, either be a r32gts or a r34 gtr. Thats my $1.00

hey ppl,

M3M3NTO and myself aer just having a play around its been discussed on irc many times all in good fun....

however when ppl bag someone then basically do the same thing thats abit of BS

anyhow kptr wat happened to the footage from the gor cruise?

im keen to see it

if you want a badge on your car just get a GTS badge , same shape as a GTR but has a S insted I am getting one off of the group buy GTS badge thread . And I agree it's your car in the end you can do what you want to it , I am sure the guy who first put neons under his car was told a thousand times it looked like shit and would never take off.

MY 2 euro

Hey Oak,

The GOR cruise footage was finished and looking good but the software Im using is giving me the shits and wont play the footage as I had it edited :hellpisd:

Im using Pinnacle 8 and its crap... trying to get my hands on version 9 now.

The footage of your car passing mine is taking pride of place :headbang:

Yeah that's right, it's your car........... however I don't think I would put something on my car that changes what it was from factory (badges). I could quite easily buy a V-Spec sticker and put it on the car, but it's not a V-spec so what would I be proving by doing it.

By the way when did neons take off........................................ :flower: :flower:

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
