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.

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
