Yeah your right there are too many chicks driving Skylines ...... it should just be me :P *jk*

But honestly its nice that ive made quite a few good friends from this forum that are girls that also have the same kinda interest in their car as i do ... because i spend so much time with my car and so much money on it obviously its my favourite topic of conversation and i seem to bore "normal lancer drivin" chicks with it. So its nice to be able to have a few fellow girls to talk too that dont think im a freak with my car obsession.

It seems that most guys agree that a girl driving a Skyline is not such a bad thing :) So are you gay? or are you one of those guys "women get in the kitchen and bake me a cake and how dare you have anything nicer than me" you seem kinda insecure if a girl in a Skyline makes you nervous.

Im very proud of my car and what i have worked very hard for and achieved with it. The car gets used for performance reasons as well ...... in fact tomorrow im competing in the Perth series of Drag Combat and ive recently had an engine rebuild after blowing five pistons after street dragging on a sick engine (yes was a blonde moment but couldnt help myself).

The sticker on the back of my car "No! its not my boyfriends!" says it all. In fact its one of the first things guys comment on "I just love your sticker!!" and they are usually very complementry of a girl driving a Skyline.

No im not the "maria" type ..... as you can probably see from my avatar (yes that is me) but personally i dont think i should be restricted to a Lancer just cos im a girl ..... ive probably driven harder and had less accidents than you anyway! This view is so dated ...... its like you've come out of the 1950's or something.

Personally i just think your scared of getting your arse whopped by a girl :P

haha im still laughing about what Dragon18 said ...mate u must ask b4 you speek out lound hehe Dam Moanie and MIZ.33T sure did open both barrels at him .... Respect for the feme' import drivers out there.

By the way MIZ.33T we have a 3L setup in your previous white 33 now.

:Owned:

Dragon18= i will let u off lightly since you are most probably just turned 18 years old, on your Ps, live in melbourne driving a 180sx and dreaming about oneday, you have the doss to earn a beautiful line like us galz n guyz..... in this forum.

either way, you must be so feebly and wretchedly insecure with you testosterone levels that you must enter this discussion on a beautiful friday morning to have to courage; [with the knowledge that there are many girls (who can & will whoop ur sorry arse) in this forum that may take offense to this thread] and still wishfully hoping some guyz as ill-informed, ill-breed, and vulgar as you may ensue on a thread trip to agree on such 1890 stigma about women......

let me quote my views on this thread now, as you obviously may not have seen this thread a while back ago.

I only wish my gfriend was able to drive my car, but a ceramic 9 puck clutch with 1400kg pressure plate and GT30 turbo that come on hard at 4000rpm and she she cant drive it without stalling it all the time.

Theres heapes of chicks that drive silvias and 180sx's so the natural progression is up to a line. :)

what the heck bro i drive a 180sx with a solid centre brass button dual plate clutch and with 275 cames ideling around 1500 rpm ....i say no easy task , dont demoralise those ppl who have 180's and silvia's cause most of em would whoop any other imports anyday due too the power too weight ratio heheh ......

just getting back at yah skyline owner ...... hehe

Oh hell yeah. Couldn't of said it better myself.

As for the thing bout u thinking most of them are NA auto's? Think again.

Being a female who owns a Skyline, I have never had a guy actually have the balls to say anything but 'there aren't enough of u'.

Maybe this could be settled on a track somewhere? If you have the balls that is.

ASS!!

you go girlfriend :D:):):):):) :sadam:

I know lots of guys here in Canberra that have Skylines and they have nuttin but respect for me!!!!!

Hey Dragon Bloke, I hope you are new to this forum cos this is a very old (and very disproven) point of view.

Come out to Oran Park, Eastern Creek or Wakefield (where if memory serves me right I am in the top 5 for club times) and either I, or any of the other chicks on this forum will gladly chop you chick style.

Should give you the answer you're after....

blackdoggette> Im in canberra too, can i ask what series and colour your car is? cause i've prolly seen it on the road. Everytime i see a skyline my head turns to follow :rofl:

Nothing wrong with women behind the wheel of the lines either, or any other performance car.

Hey guys new to the lines thought I'd stick in my 2 cents lol :rofl:

And I'm with everyone else should be more girls in skylines just cause it's dam sexy sorta like a motor bike chick in leather lmao :P And the fact is I'd love to find one that way you know next cruise you'll be there for sure and nothing having to go shopping or some crap. ;) oh also love the site guys one of the best I've seen. :rofl:

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
