Moanie, please dont take this as a deliberate targeting of Colin because it most certainly isnt, nor is it a slagging on a "westsider".

Several spectators reported a black 180sx which may or may not have been Colins going sideways on the grass. Now you dont just go sideways, as Merli said if you loose traction most people would immediatley take their foot of the gas. Myself and Jeremy also saw a car in your group of cars doing chirpys in the carpark as you were leaving.  

The problem being this could have a VERY damaging effect to SAU and understandably none of us are impressed. Those who left the marks in the grass know who they are and I hope they realise what they have done.

There were two 180s in our group? So are you picking on SINNA cause his plates are easily readable? You don't even know if it was colin? Yet you're all quick to blame! Maybe he lost a lil control? I'm sure someone took pics of the marks he left behind...i'd like to see them!

As for chirpys in the car park? Guess that means you saw me! you know my plates...feel free to report them too! And i can assure you i wasn't doing chirpys intentionally....but you obviously thought i was from what you saw....so don't you think the same could apply for colin?

I can understand it will be damaging for SAU...and thats the last thing i'd want....i just think its unreasonable for you to blame 1 person when there was obviously others doing it...PLUS i also believe you guys are being harsher cause he is a westsider!

No issues Carlo, I was going to do the same thing.

I will just add that a blue skyline was also reported to the police, and spoken to at the day.

I do hope that Colin is ok as it is never nice to be hurt.

      Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.

      Recomended Coolant For Gt T R34

      By silviaz · Posted

      What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.

      Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!

      R34 4 door side skirt identification

      By Rezz · Posted

      No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
