hey guys i was at work today and thinking about what i can do to my r32 gtst next... and i thought i wonder what ppl go for these days and what ppl concider to be tuff,quick and sweet all round.....

this started me thinking and so i have started this thread..... in all of the s/e QLD guys on this forum who go to meet ups and track days and cruises etc ( u know who u are) who in your opinion takes the titles of:

1:quickest skyline (this one is quite obvious)

2:tuffest skyline (a car which in your opinion is just tuff looking or just tuff overall)

3:a skyline that really stands out from the rest (something that makes this car "outstanding")

4:tidiest skyline (how well the car is always presented)

5:best overall package (combining driveline and cosmetics and performance)

in my opinion for me the cars which these are for me are the following (not trying to stir anyone up remembering this is everyones personal opinion) what i came up with after a few moments thginking was:

1: Belgarions quick as all hell R33 ....gtst its a great overall package

2:M3M3NT0/CHASP's r32 gtr.... just has all the good gear and will really hammer when sorted

3:Erins r33 gtst ....cause its always well presented and tidy (everytime ive seen it anyway :Oops: )

4:MELVS r33 gtr.... i saw it at x rated and its a very well thought out and put together car

5: still thinking :headspin:

so if anyone wants to add to this for me and please give a quick reason/explaination as to why you made the decision you did .... cheers Jon

I would of nominated mine for tidiest or best overall package, mainly bcos everywhere i go people say its not just another skyline :)

but after hitting a possum the other nite, my front bar doesnt look to happy :P

I think everyones car is special in its own way, by far some are better than others, but thats only to do with how much money people have

These are all cars that I've been associated with in some way, mostly through SAU or SVD organised days... They dont really "cruise" though, so I dunno if that makes it irrelevant.

1:quickest skyline (this one is quite obvious)

Either PSI-350 or Richard Hulls RB26 powered GTST. Wheelspin at freeway speeds is hardc0re, you hear me?

2:tuffest skyline (a car which in your opinion is just tuff looking or just tuff overall)

MMM59 or Melvs GTR are very tough... When japtaxi gets his car back on the road, I think he may just walk away with this little award though :)

3:a skyline that really stands out from the rest (something that makes this car "outstanding")

You might actually get this crown John, mainly because of this photo:

... It really just looks the goods and it has that X factor.

4:tidiest skyline (how well the car is always presented)

Erin gets the vote for this one :P And I guess I'm biased, but its always clean and shiny.

5:best overall package (combining driveline and cosmetics and performance)

No real "most fully ever" car springs to mind. Some cars are awesome in terms of power, but others look prettier. Some just stand out in a crowd, despite being neither super powerful or super shiny. I'l reserve judgement I think.

and yeah it doesnt have to turn into a shitfight whats wring with ppl saying what they like about other peoples cars.... if it offends people then good on em cause its not intended in that way at all... just a means of getting new ideas,seeing what ppl like and giving credit where its due....

if most people think that this thread will just cause a shitfight ill be happy to close it even though i dont want to...

lol, u cant nominate yourself you wanker :rofl:

This thread is pointless because everyone has different tastes :)

Cool a payout thread :)

Hmmmmm where to start.....

Just coz youv'e got some dodgy crap Japanese writing down the side of your car doesn't make it "supreme" Knore :(

It's an auto for godsake, not even a real car.

And everyone knows white cars just plain suck :)

A Skyline with four doors WTF???? .... can we say Taxi

Gun Metal grey Skylines with Veilside Frontbars yuuuuuk

But cars with blue interiors....theyr'e the "bomb" :rofl:

(no offence to anyone, just having a dig in a stupid thread....I like all Skylines and all tastes are different)

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
