Biggest concern for me is the roos...there's so many of them about in my area at night, and a lack of proper lighting in some areas doesn't help. That stretch of road just before you turn left to go to Lanyon shops after coming back from tuggers (im shocking with street names :cheers:) is terrible, very poor lighting. I've seen a few near misses around that area because of the roos.

My car definitely doesn't like the bounciness of the parkway, or should i say the coilovers. Last week my transmission went into 'fail safe' mode because it detected 'excessive wheelspin and/or hard braking'. Was just caused by driving @ 100 down a bumpy section of the parkway and the wheels slipping alittle across every little bump.

Its more irritating when you get 2 fools in the left and right hand lanes doing the same speed 90-100 kms/h and 100 cars behind them all tailgating, who is at fault here.

the fools that dont have the balls to do 110 and then get "back" into the left lane. ooooo oooooooooooo

so frustrating!!!

yeah going slow in the right lane is one of my biggest hates...after cyclists!!!

i wont tailgate people, i dont want to wreck their car or mine, but if 2 people are going under the speed limit in both lanes and im in a rush then i'll get rite up the ass of the car in the right lane for about 5seconds, then back rite off, it gives them the mesge that they r pissing me off and doing the wrong thing without sitting on their ass untill they move.

:werd:

exactly! I won't tailgate but i'll let em know I'm behind them and that the signs "keep left unless overtaking" aren't just there for the hell off it :D

*most* ppl move over - yet you still get the tossers who think they have a right to stay in the fast lane cos they're doing 2km over the limit.

HAHA I think its more of a , "oh my this perosn is so far up my rear.... oh no its ok they have backed off now."

or

"oh how rude some people are sooo pushy."

for *^%( Sake!

If your gunna drive do it consideratly, And that includes letting non possy people through!

why oh why are they in the right hand lane anyway? do they think its safer? or do they just like the attention

feel better now.. thanks

I drive home slot of the way in the right lane for safety reasons :)

There's trees/bush on the left, and i like that lane wide buffer zone if a Kangaroo decides to play Car Roullette

yeah im a bit the same, when its not busy, or even in the middle of the road (two way st.) just gives more time to see and react

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
