hahaha

yeah my skyline was a **** to keep clean... but when it is clean damn black looks good :rofl:

i'll have a spare set of rims for circuit/drifting ;) so shouldnt damage them... i can slo see plenty of tickets for parking too far from the kerb coming my way ;)

Awesome looking car narks! And like everyone else has said, yes, it's damned pimpin. I'd be guessin' you'll even be manwhoring your own ass out of the thing!

Just don't scratch it up in the first week with all that power. Mate i don't want to see a grown man cry.

spoke to J-Spec today about compliancing the car... according to ADR's if the engine in the car has australian standards and emmissions testing it is complianceable under the 15 year rule (even if the engine is not a standard or optional component in the make of car). Seeing as the RB26DETT was a australian emissions tested engine in the 1991 locally sold R32 Skyline, its OK to have in the car, and should go through compliance without any hassles...

w00t

in addition if the engine was not emissions tested in Australia and data is not available, then you have to carry out a engineers certification etc, which costs big bucks.

Wonder what would happen in the case of an RB25DET? seeing as it was never sold in Australia as a standard engine... has someone done emissions testing on em?

But its not a mini?

lol i was over that idea in less than a month :)

i went from wanting a mini to getting a bike... to getting a race/drift car to a GTR again and then this as soon as it popped up :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.
