Yeah it's a pretty standard looking car. Hadn't got around to the body work or rims etc. yet which I guess is something !!! (waiting for the crappy dealer treads to vanish in a puff of blue smoke) yeah the car was alarmed but I don't know if it was a 3 pointer or not.

I'm just waiting for the headlines "Nissan Skyline used in drive by... ban all high performance cars !!!!"

Maybe I'll drop by stanmore macca's on sat :P

Hey Guys,

Just letting all know that the car has been found !!! Was recovered in an underground car park at balmain. Surprisingly enough it is only missing the front bumper, steering wheel and gear knob and aparently still runs !! what sort of condition the motor will be in is another story.. but at least it has been found.

OK got it back to my bro's place and have managed to have a better look. The front bar has been ripped off, bent bonnet, left hand indicator damage etc.. doesn't look like there is any damage to the sub frames but wont know for sure till I get it up on the ramps. As for waht is missing they has basically stole all the flashy bits, gauges, stereo, steering wheel and shift knob.

Consolation is that I found the dude's sunnies in the back seat. Extremely bent out of shape and one of the nose pieces has been sheared off. Whatever his face hit it hit hard :-)

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
