I take off from most lights to get in front of the traffic, but always look around for any hotted up / quick cars who will follow me and try a bit harder if there is.

Never past the speed limit, maybe 2-3km/h over...incidentally the amount of speedo correction tolerance the authorities allow for.

Better or worse than the flogs with alfa/lancia etc that have Itallian flags?

Prolly not as bad cause the only cars that can really upstage them are Ferraris

I feel like these German flag donning Volkswagen owners are under some delusion they belong to the BMW/Mercedes crowd of luxury marques

No one races me off the lights :(

My last one I almost slid into a c63 amg lel at calder ofcourse too.

DAM YOU ACHILLES!

nah but srs they aint so bad once you get some heat into them

The worst are people pulling out of a slip lane in front of you as soon as you've taken off from the lights. Had a taxi do that lastnight and had to change lanes...

Your car has a factory LSD Leigh? Need AD08Rs brah. If I owned your car and was into prinny runs I'd get a cheap set of wide 17s and put MTs on them, swap them over before you go out on Friday night haha.

that's just asking to get pulled over!

did just put a deposit on some BBS LM reps doe, now what tyres are decentish and cheap considering i'll probably burn through them anyway?

595 RSR don't do 19s and invos / NT05s pretty pricey.Thinking regular 595s because they come in 19s, although my GTR had them and they were pretty shitty on the track and tore up, maybe i'll just get Achilles again.

    • 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.
