couple of years back id parked up on the side of the road and had some kid come over ( about 16 id say) and ask me what "stage" turbo kit i had in my R32 GTR

I told him they were just stock and that we werent in "NEED FOR SPEED"!!!!

I also noticed that the bogans loved my VX clubby, but do not appreciate the skyline at all haha

First off you need to picture me, typical Anglo Australian, 90+ Kgs and a goatee (White as toothpaste and look meaner than your 'wanna-be' local bikie gang)

Stop at a set of lights outside of an event that had just finished, Kids (teens) everywhere.

3 little euro kids walk past the front of my care to cross the street and i hear this kid (no older than 13 y/o) "white guy should give that car to someone that would know how to drive it, WOGS FOR LIFE!!"

The most common line i get is "Do a burn out!"

lol at the kids hehe "do a burnout" "is it turbo" "does it go fast" but hey you're not exactly talking to an adult so dont be harsh, either ignore or go with it hehe. like this "yes kid its fast and it will do 400 km/h" their response would be "wow you're so cool when i grow up i want to be like you" you send them off with "stay off the streets and in school". see you've just made a difference, that kid will probably leave school the next day and become a shoplifter then take up ice and lsd while losing their virginity to an aids infested hobo or as they say these days "ganga".

couple guys at work are always asking when my car will be finished and back on the road. sometimes they hang shit and sometimes interested talking about the car as they dont know much about imports.

other day one guy comes up to me and says he has decided my car is now a piece of crap and waste of time as someone went to drifts and saw a 33 with an LS1. then explaining why would i want some turbo 6 crap when i could have a real engine put in it...

I hate it when bogan trash approach you and the follow conversation ensues:

"is it a GTR?"

"No"

"Well it's shit then."

"well what do you drive?"

"A commodore"

"is it a supercharged V8?"

"No but.."

"f**k off then"

I don't get the stigma, that unless you drive a fully hektik 600HP+ GTR, your skyline is apparently shit. But the bogan who tells you this is trying to defend their clapped out VT commodore that has an ecotec in it.

Most turbo skylines will beat most cars in the road.

Haha i just realised i had a awesome one from this old dude at autobahn in springwood.

I have 18" CR-Kai's with out the centre caps.

Old Dude: (he points at rear wheels) hey buddy you need get down to the wreckers asap and get some hub caps your hub bearings are exposed they'll rust out.

Me: :S No they are meant to be like that

Old Dude: walks of disgusted shaking head

Had 2 different non skyline owners give nice comments about my car, with one of them owning a V8 ute :) and another whose bro owns a S13. So at least some out there do appreciate skylines.

girl: that sound makes me froth :P

    • 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
