Guys,

This guy sounds like he is a bit of a psycho. You guys are mocking him pretty badly and I would be pretty concerned for all those skyline owners who live in Perth. I'm pretty sure that if he walks past a skyline he would scratch it etc.

HSV Tool? He drives a SS.. So SS tool. I don't want to be associated with him :)

chace and abuse the person at gixxer.com all you want just leave the person jason rouse alone he definatly is not the one you want. if you knew what i know about the only jason rouse that lives in perth and works in the ADF you wont chace this up

TRUST ME !!!!!!!

I'm pretty sure that you guys are talking about the same Jason Rouse. Here is an anti turbo thread he started on the Ls1 forums:

He wouldn't be a chicken strangler from Swanbourne would he???

Im shocked at what this guy has said about Skylines and other JAP cars…

Ive had a V8 Commodore.. wasn’t that great.. Ive had a Mitsubishi GSR Turbo Lancer aswell.. now that was great!!

I love the feeling you get from a Turbo charged vehicle and you just don’t get that from a V6 or a V8.

The fact that a Jap car with about half the fuel consumption say 2.5L compared to 3.8L V6 can absolutely whip the crap outa the bigger fatter car. Even V8s get killed by about half the guys on these forums..

I love the fact that you can buy 1000+ mods for your Turbo car.

The fact that these V8 blokes prove it to us over and over again that they are the dumbest people to own a drivers license under the sun is amazing… Why I ask..

How often do you find people from these forums bagging V8s?? Not often... we keep to our self and happily wipe them all over the road.

I will leave you with an image of what I imaging our young nut case looks like.. you pick.. either one..

Mate, I owned a S15 and I thought that I would be missing that instant turbo rush but have you stepped into a LS2 yet(new clubby)? It feels like you have been hit by a massive cricket bat, and it keeps going.

In reference to fuel consumption. All performance cars drink heaps of petrol. When you drive hard in a 4 cycl evo or STI it drinks a lot of fuel. You'll be surprised that there aint that much difference between the fuel consumption of the evo and the hsv. MOTOR averaged 17 litres per 100kms for the evo as opposed to 18litres per 100kms for the hsv in there latest comparison.

I've also heard that the RX8, even though it is a small 1.3 litre engine it drinks like 20litres/100kms when driven hard.

It is a myth that the smaller the engine, the less fuel it drinks.

Im not bagging V8s like your one at all Vuster. You have a very nice Car infact Id probably sell my curent two cars and get just the wheels from your car.. See its not the V8 owners like you that I personly get angry at.. Its the 18 year old guys or who ever this guy in that post is.. He specificly picks on Skyline owners and other nissan owners.. he is what I call a V8BOG

I own 2 skylines and live in a country hole with 99.9% V8 lovers and some drive really quick ie 11 &12 sec V8's which are awesome bigarse cars, but I'm the 0.1% who has seen the light. Cornering, braking, balance, build quality and appointments is where my $15-20 thou cars have it hands down on any aussie built beast.

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
