mix of both cars

I made the mistake of looking at the dates of these... been so long since I drove in anger on a track its depressing

You do know there is a very easy way to fix such a problem?

Yeah that's why pretty much all of my Targa pics have watermarks - always been too tight to fork out the $400 on pics! :)

Here's some others of my car(s) I've found laying around.

And a good one of the last girl before the suspension was sorted!

I've always wondered..... what does the number plate signify?

You are so uncultured :)

It's the name of the dragon out of Tolkien's novel "The Hobbit" - because the old girl was also a fire breathing, money hoarding monster. :)

Mmmmmkay

Gotta agree Zebra, love the name and the reference (knew it was familar) but the non geek reply had me on the floor with laughter, rare so soon after waking up! Thanks guys, also that shot of the 34 bottoming out...ouch. So painful to watch, surely it was a nightmare inside the car?

was that with stock suspension or just way too low?

love the car and good to see a 34 used in anger, absolute dream car for me and the more Tolkien references you can fit on one the better!

Yeah, and he had a belly encrusted with jewels and ancient gold, unspeakable amounts of wealth lost forever.

Sits as one of the most consistantly accurate representations of GT-R ownership you will ever find in fiction, hahaha.

Some of mine - all at the RAC driving centre though. Almost, almost made it to barbs but then had to pull out due to selling car rolleyes.gif

hard to do this when you've had so many cars... I'll start with my favourite car. the Supra was so much fun to drive:

So why did you sell it, tard :)

The main reason was I found myself going sideways into a gravel trap stopping less than a foot away from the tyre barrier, which made me realise I REALLY didn't want to crash the Supra!

The options were to reign it in a bit and drive at 9/10ths or buy something I didn't care much about, that would be alot cheaper to repair and wouldn't break your heart if it was totalled... A couple of years later that part of it paid off. I couldn't care less that I crashed the 180SX! Well, I cared that I crashed, but I didn't care about the car.

    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
