Hope everyone is enjoying their holidays. I just got back from a week in Melbourne with family.

Just so happens I was on the Hume, in Victoria, overtaking a couple of trucks doing around 110kms in my missus I30. Next thing you know a R33 flys up my ass doing about 140kms thinking that he can sit up there about 3cms to push me doing his speed. I wasn't going to have it so I slowed down to 100kms to match the truck's speed, and he really hated it. When I let him go, he thought it be a great idea to cut the truck and then me off, to then brake to cause and accident. Well lucky I had my wits about me and didn't but slowing down to 60kms in the right hand lane of the Hume is the best idea this guy had.

I really don't care, what really gets me is that the truck drivers were parsing me for doing what I did and no doubtlessly thinking another dick head in a skyline. Things like that ruin out reputation and being a proud owner of a better skyline then this bloke (r32 gtr) it hurts.

So if anyone sees this guy, don't be afraid to tell him to f**k off to a commode and stop ruining our reputation. I will be posting this in the ACT and VIC forums because no doubt he was off to summernats.

The car is a blue r33 gtst with a white flame decal on the bonnet and stupid cartoon fast and furious crap down the sides. And the license is Ytb 465 Vic plates.

Omg... I saw the very same car today when I was buying lunch. He was at Smithfield NSW at 3pm. I cringed at the car when i saw the fast and furious white flames, had a look at the driver and he looked like a twat wit sunnies on.

Yeah its not a good looking car. I have copped abit for posting this, was quite angry at the time.

Mainly because everyone thought I was bagging out r33s. I was only on his. My uncle has a sweet r33.

Yeah I think it will be the last time I do it. Next time ill just ring the police and keep my mouth shut lol.

Agreed, best course of action. I recently had an incident in my wifes Cube, & with my 2yr old daughter in the back. Turns out knobheads in VD SuperShiite wagons don't like doing 50 km/h in a 50 zone. They like to weave around & hang over the double lines (but not overtake, cause that's breaking the law!), then after 3.5km, just before the end of the road with this complete idiot so far up my butt, he decides to start flashing high beams. So i stop & get out. He roars past, but I got a good look at him, plates, make of vehicle & colour. Went straight to my local & reported him. Officer rang me afew weeks later & told me I got all the info right, they had a chat with him. He claims his wife was using the car that night...............GUTLESS PRICK..............!

Courtesy needs to come from all parties.

* the driver in the overtaking lane needs to complete the overtaking manoeuvre without fuss

* the one about to overtake should keep his distance from the one ahead whilst he accelerates.

I learnt my lesson on the Hume and other 2 lane highways after copping stones from trucks and accelerating cars ahead. Tailgating has caused me to lose a fog light or windscreen before.

How f**king irresponsible are you? You slowed down to the trucks speed? I don't even know where to start, you need to hand your licence back buddy.

How irresponsible are you?

You actually read OP's post.

    • Are you suggesting that the kit did a cheap and nasty job of just jamming the wheel in between other things and caused the misalignment? I mean, we normally do this with an integrated crank trigger wheel, not something bodged on. It's not 1995 any more.
    • I mean, given the number of BMWs you own their tolerance for improper torque is rather low. The number of torque + angle spec bolts and non-reusable bolts in one is nuts.
    • Atmospheric vent requires something that doesn't use a MAF for load. You would need a standalone ECU for that.
    • Hey all,   I’ve got an RB25 with a trigger kit that includes a crank wheel, and I’ve hit a wall trying to sort a timing belt tracking issue. The belt either rides right on the edge of the cam/crank pulleys or walks slightly forward once the engine starts. It tracks okay-ish for a moment, then creeps right to the edge—and honestly, it’s stressing me out.   I’ve spent hours removing and reinstalling the belt, double-checking everything:   Tensioner setup is good, checked multiple times Idler pulley and washers are all in the correct places Followed the RB25 timing procedure step-by-step     The only thing I changed was the rear crank washer—I swapped the OEM one for a Neato version, and it made things worse. The belt now sits even more forward than before. I’m beginning to think the crank trigger wheel itself (from the trigger kit) is the issue—poor design or slightly off dimensions.   What’s strange is that with the previous belt setup, it actually ran fine for a couple of years—around 4,000 to 5,000 miles, even with hard driving and high RPMs. But even then, the belt was always riding right on the edge, and I know that’s not ideal or safe long term.   At this point, I’m debating whether to:   Machine a few mm off the crank trigger wheel to bring it back in line, or Replace it entirely with a better-designed unit     Only thing is, I already have the Cherry Hall sensors, bracket, etc.—I just want to replace the wheel only, not the entire kit. Anyone know a brand or supplier that sells just the crank trigger wheel on its own?   Would really appreciate any feedback—especially from anyone who’s run into this exact issue and found a reliable fix.   Thanks in advance.
    • Hi...a little refresh. Is Nistune gonna be enough to run BoV? Or do i need some proper ECU?
