Yet again, I had another Commondore (ute this time) Made his way through traffic and came screeming up next to me (me doing seed limit) so he could sit next to me and try to egg me on for a race down Gininderra drive, and when I didnt give him the satisfaction of floggin him, he took off in a huff and screemed off into the traffic (which only slowed him down) Why does owing a skyline invite di(ks to come and try and race all the time.

lol because they are fast and people want to race them, just depends on the person driving what happens, if it were me i would have had a crack and backed off after a little while, but im an idiot.

i've chased a few ss's to see if they wanna play, its just a performance thing, performance cars seek out other performance cars. i like it when people want to race me, i think however they disguise it, they are still saying "your cars fast"

Was it black by any chance? Had a dickhead in a black SS ute scream up next to me (i was in the left hand lane) and overtake me just to get to a left hand turn in front of me. Not only did he not indicate at all but he also managed to almost clip the side of my car. i was doing the speed limit as well. :S

Meh take it as a compliment! When I did the Dara formal I had the worlds toughest torana follow me up northbourne trying to race! he was the nicest bloke too we had a good chat at a couple of sets of lights! He was convinced my car was on the same level as his and wanted to race to see who was faster! lol...

Lets just say... He was faster...

Back on topic. In that situation mate I would smile wind up the turbo a little and let HKS (ptschhhh) let him know that I have what it takes and I dont need to prove it... lol.

It was blue, stock looking and stock sounding until he put his foot flat, but it was only a v8 with exaust and a auto. He also just missed another car also, I may have thought about running him but wrong time wrong place.

Just so everyone is aware - according to the guys at work, there is a BA falcon 'sleeper' around in the mornings, who has been trying to get people to have a race from the lights. Looks like a businessman, complete down to jacket hanging in the back of the car. Unfortunately, the car also has some optional accessories in the form of red and blue flashing lights... as soon as I find out the colour of the car, I'll edit this message.

lol it seems to me that there must be something said on utesaustralia(not an actual site...i hope) that if they see a skyline they need to show it up or atleast look like a d!ckhead because thats all they are doing, can they get over themselves and realise that wow uve got a ute buddy congratulations GET OVER YOURSELF!!! god they annoy me so much especially that toss pot from the cotter who thought he was king sh!t spinning his wheels. but yeh i think theres something in every SS ute owners mind that they have to show up a skyline or atleast challenge it to see how manly there australian car fares up against a japanese beast. in sayin this im not gonna say all SS ute driver are homo cause some of them just wanna try you out, but when someone thinks there better just cause there car wasnt imported, those people sh!t me. ahwell hopefully the d!ckhead ute drivers will get over themselves, no offense to the respectful ute drivers.

Ahhh, the benefits of owning a sleeper....

Amen to that, I've got one (VR4) sitting on the wharf at the moment and I am just about OVER all the V8 knuckledraggers who want to race the 'line when I am just minding my own business driving home from a shitty day at work.

With the Galant I will take pleasure in how many of them go home thinking they just got OWNED by a "skinny Magna".

Ahhh, I miss those days (NOT) when bogans used to weave through traffic just to try and drag me....

Now that I have the RS4 I just get other wagon drivers trying to drag me... LOL

The RS4 is a great sleeper, police never take a second look, you can go past a 'random inspection point' and they don't pull you over, and most other drivers have no idea what they are.. hehehe..

    • 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 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
