Well NIZ30. When I have some new tyres I'll take you out one thursday night and show you. It's not usually just at one place because of police attention. I only go out for a little while on Thursday nights and every Saturday night.

Although this saturday night nothing is happening because of Indy and the fact that all the roads are blocked off.

I will let you know when I go out again and tag you along :D Get you to meet some of the cruise scene people. I only introduce you to the nice ones...

And Nismo_Boy.. as your you. You don't even have you license so how do you know you wont be like that? And, I'm not saying all of them are like that.. just the majority.

This was my initial thought too. But everyone seemed to doing this so I thought they must have some experience here and realise police mustn't be in the area. If they had speed cameras there at about 11 to 1 at night there would be many import drivers without a licence. In my couple of weeks of cruising at these times I have yet to see a skyline driver not race down this road.

Upon saying this, advice noted.

002 NVS perhaps you could get it checked by 3 different places and have readouts of it and dispute it? its quite a lot of effort to go to just to dodge a defect, and i suspect they were just lookin for the other 2.

isnt it something like they have to have 3 items to defect you on to fine you for it? im not sure, im only goin on whats been said to me, and ya never know really :P

guess the moral is carry one of those silencers round and shove that in the pipe when you go to places like roma st or something perhaps? take it out when you leave or something

      Valve clearance for RB25det series 2

      This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      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
