on the way to lala yesterday i drove along south road with a guy in a gunmetal grey 32 gtr. apparently his other car is identical but with big turbos, hks cams, power fc etc and makin heaps of power.......he was tryin to jokingly say something was missing in the top end of the stocker GTR lol :ninja:

good to talk to (and not be snubbed by) a fellow skyline owner.........especially of that calibre (compared to my shitter now rolling on 14" stockies :dry: )

Spotted Vange yesterday afternoon on Goodwood road. I was waiting to pick up my friends right at the opposite of the Capri theater. Obviously didn't get a chance to raise my hand to say hi.

Also spotted a black r33 with a stealth wing on west terrace. I was at the light of gouger/west terrace. I flashed once to greet but unfortunately I got a "weird-looking-back" from the passenger. Not just once thou... i had the same "weird-looking-back" again this afternoon on west terrace. Hmm.... I guess all skyline drivers should look cool.....no saying hi to each other........ ( I am nearly giving up of being a nice line driver....... :/ ) :)

thats why we need stickers to identify who uses sau forums and who dont. either on side quarter, rear window or along the front side of front windscreen. you feel like an idiot after greeting another skyline owner who just give you that 'wdf look'.

awww dont give up hope bixby ill wave hello if i see you early enough :D

Thanks mate.... I'll definitely give it a try again..... :D Or maybe I should drive my car fast from now on - fast enough for not having a chance to wave! :D

Hopefully the next person I see on the road is one of SAUs.

I think you are absolutely right!! Don't want to be an idiot anymore for being a friendly skyline driver!

Well if no one is wiling to make them - there was discussion on here about it before, Im just going to get a one off for myself. I see soo many skylines and without any identification, I dont know whether to compliment the owner or just have a quick look as I pass and be done with it. The thing is most skyline owners in SA dont frequent these forums and if you say nice car or hey are you on SAU they are just like 'WDF' or snubb you off completely. At with a sticker, they can say oh I saw a xxxx color skyline with a sau sticker rather then I saw this xxxx car whose was it? Some ppl say it attracts unwanted attention but I think otherwise especially if its discrete.

I've still got the designs i made up a while ago

If you need a high-res adobe illustrator file i can send that to you to take to your sticker maker.

They'll be a meeting for small car sunday organising this sunday, i'll be taking along the sticker/banner sample. Hopefully if there is enough interest we can look at getting stickers done at the same time as the banner. But the best person to speak to at this stage is pkblade about that.

lol, I'll have one of each thanks !

seriously - they are both good designs (the 2 stickers in the link), would be good to get it off the ground. I might go on a USA website that does custom vinyl stickers and get a set made for myself, not that expensive.

oh - and LOLZ at the lad in the red Seca who raced past me on the expressway yesterday whilst turning back over his shoulder with a huge grin from ear to ear giving me a wave !! hahahaha *waves back* man your grin was HUGE :thumbsup:

Yeah there was a bit of a kafuffle about who was getting the stickers done, originally i was going to use a contact on the nissanexa.com club to get some samples but he's been flat out lately. So i think pkblade's might have someone else in mind for the final banner production and/or stickers - i'm not entirely sure, but i guess things will be closer to being finalised by this sunday.

Btw, there's one more design if you like

As mentioned before i've got all the illustrator files for each variation, just let me know and i'll shoot you a copy.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.

      I have an elite 2500 running an adapter harness on an rb25de neo r34. I took the butterfly out and removed all that junk. But I also went Plus+t at the same time. The butterfly thing works in reverse to the boost solenoid on the Gtt if that makes sense

      yeh they are 235/45/17 up front and 255/40/17 in the rears. I still didn't get my answer if i can fit a 18x9 up front. I want to get 4 of this and see if they will fit before committing as they didn't see an 18x8 as an option but there is a 18x9.5 also.   Enkei RS05-RR 18x9 35mm ET 5x114.3 75.0 Bore Matte Gunmetal Wheel
