Thats what I like most about driving a sleeper. No one ever bothers to take me on.

But sometimes I see some smartass showing off, so after having a real good look around, slide up beside them at the next set of lights. I can maybe gain half a car length before they realise, and the look on some guys faces is absolutely priceless.

i beat a nissan exa n/a in my colt

number plates were CHKYXA or some shit like that hahaha was funny

but my colt conked out yesterday when my broinlaw was driving it to work but its fixed now :) fuel blockage most likely, guess just got cleaned out. when my car is getting the engine done i'll bring the colt to a few meets so you can all marvel in its glory

I had a young guy try to impress me one Saturday morning in D'nong. He was trying to make me look at his car so naturally I didnt. He was on my left when the lights turned green and he took off like a bat out of hell, drove 10 feet and nearly rear ended the car in front of him.D***head

Well I'm not one to run on the road, but on Sunday after spectating at a Porsche car club meet at Sandown, I encountered a couple of guys in a worked 911 Carrera (I'd been inspecting it during the day) following me close behind doing the tyre warming swerves and generally giving me the hurry up.

Anyway, ran with them on Princess Hwy and got 3 cars by 190. They stopped beside me again at the next set and were completely silent, wouldn't even give me a glance.

Porsche eater!!

i never get any runs on my side of town! i usually just get 'nice car mate' or 'is that a real gtr?'.

Hey Uly... is ur R32 GTR 94?? I thought Nissan stopped making R32 GTR in 1993. But I could be wrong.

Aw man, another d1[h3Ad in a commonwhore tried cutting lanes right infront of me again today. What's wrong with these people!??!? I'm not into dragging anyone!

Wtf? They like bragging "Guess what mom?! I overtook a skyline today!"

:)

Everyone wants to eat a skyline coz they are jealous. Skylines have a reputaion for being solid Hi Po cars. Its only natural that their little brains attempt to provoke us into pointless drags we're gonna win. These people would just like to know how much crappier their car is :uh-huh:

There is none better than outrunning your opponent in corners! Should see the look on those HSV dirvers and STis drivers when you do that!

They think big grunt and 4WD are the tools to go fast? Wait 'till they see some skills and knowledge...

RESPECT to you man if you could win STI in a corner.What suspension set up and tires are you using?

You don't get it, do you??? It ain't my point! Do you realize that out of the 800 STi drivers (and possibly more with the new STis), only a handful who can REALLY handle? Same as those M3 drivers, Ferrari drivers, Porsche drivers and any other performance car owners of that caliber. Not to mention the HSV drivers. Sure their cars are fast, but that don't make them a fast driver without learning some skills.

Think about it: even if you have all the money in the world, you wouldn't risk your quarter-million car and your life tackling a corner so fast while you don't have any skills whatsoever, would you?

I RESPECT drivers with skills, dude... I got kicked by old men with their old performace cars. And that proved me that skills and knowledge of the car is more important than what you have in your car... But I hate wanna-bes thinking they are fast just because they are driving expensive performance cars. And I hardly race anyone unless he's a complete moron!

i beat a 300zx twin turbo, with full multicolour paint pearl shitti whatever, around a round a bout.

sure they caught up to me (me being n/a and all) but they took the round a bout so slow it was unbelievable (i was on outside, yes he was speeding before we got to the "obstacle")

    • Spotted in Adelaide last week.... mine! New to me two weeks ago.. love it!
    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
