i've never copped abuse, ever, if anything i've only gotten compliments. Once from a bloke in a mustang and another guy in one of those new falcon GT thingos, i think the bloke in the falcon liked the fact that it was a 2 door (R31). Then i had some apprentice plumbers or something look at me for a while and then one of them asked how much it puts out, though i think the exhaust note is what made them ask, was like a deep grumble sound, it was a silvertop RB20 with a turbo back exhaust, allot of people thought it had big cams in it. Also had a mechanic who drove an old falcon say my 31 was "phat"(his manager told me :S).I think it's different for R31 owners, i dunno.

All i know is that i'd bloody go beserk if someone threw something at my car or anything.

2 of my mates have had damage done to their cars in the last couple of months, 1 has a Supra RZ and the other has a BA XR6 Turbo. The Supra has only been in Aus for about 4 months and since then it has been keyed all up the side, had some1 scratch their name into the bonnet and had the rear wing punched down snapping it in half. The XR6 has been keyed all over the bonnet, down the entire side and even the rear lights (at $300 each) have all been scratched. Not to mention all the people who have run into the cars and caused accidental damage.

I dont care what any1 drives as long as they respet other peoples cars and I mean who cares if you dont like Jap cars get over it you dont have to drive 1. Your entitled to you own opinion but keep it to you self, why yell shit at people its not going to get them to change their opinion and that goes for people who abuse Holden drivers. I like Skylines so i drive 1, if you like Holdens then you drive 1, be happy that you drive a car that you like and stfu about it.

</end rant>

:unsure::D

  • 1 month later...

teenagers this generation are more ...i dunno...disrespectful and stupid.

its just common sense and respect not to touch any1's vehicle...we work hard for our cars...sure there's gonna b rivalry, but there's no need for keying some'1s car.

shouting abuse in my opinion is what keeps skyline/holden owners loving their brand of car...its just part of buying the car.

i am a big fan of the skyline, but im not going to say its the best...again personal preferance. i like holdens, fords, toyota's, honda's etc ive never in my life yelled abuse at any1...im not saying im the best person in the world but if people just respected one another it would just be so much better

what i am against is racism! oh i could rant on for ages

im asian and in livin in perth...i dont have that asian pride running through my blood, being a foreigner brought up in australia just made me realise how great this country is. look beyond the persons appearance.

peace out australia!

and i must say this site is full of nice people :)

p.s. if ur car does get damaged on purpose, eye for an eye

I had a half full beer bottle thrown at my hood while driving. Ever seen what a pretty heavy bottle can do to a GTR hood.. Messy.

I’ve had a rear quarter kicked in at a shopping centre as well. Used to get quite a few bogan comments, one of the favourites on my current car is the way it sounds, always get dead shits mimicking the idle at servo’s. For those who have heard fcon equipped cars you’ll no doubt no what I mean with the weird idle they tend to get haha.

Copped some abuse b4 xmas, I was at a local roundabout and this sheila stopped the other side and leaned out her window and gave me the forks and abuse I couldnt hear, was so funny I cracked up pointing at her she laughed as well!

I wonder if she is a mamber here?

a couple of days ago i left the hardware shop and turned at a set of lights.

A car full of bogans in a sh@tbox old school laser yelled out "fully sic bro".

I thought to myself how do they get that when the car looks like a sleeper (apart from the fMIC) and it does not have 24" rims, i look like an aussie as i am one and the car is Jap.

haha

dic@s

Into a crowd... injuring people.....

Stop me before I go too far :P

I once had a car full of bogans drive past while I was walking home, they yelled something at me so i replied "bring it on b1tch" at the top of my lungs (ok so I had had a few) did they stop? nope, bogans are full of hot air

i have a 180sx and an LJ torrana and i get heaps of shit and heaps of praise in both of them.

and on the displacement issue just look at some of 2days supercars and it easy to see where bogans get the the idea that bigger is better.

eg. ferrari enzo 6L V12

aston martin DB9 6L V12

dodge viper 8L V10

And all the old muscle cars

eg. Yenko camero 427ci V8

shelby cobra 427ci V8

corvette stingray 427ci V8

The one thing I hate about being a Commo owner is I always get looked at as a Bogan wanker but im not. :P

I dont even know how to drop a burnout in my VL. lol

I agree bogans suck but it would be interesting to see if any of you guys would talk down a 'True Aussie Bogan" not some retarded 17 year old in a VN I mean a true knuckle busting bogan.

I think bommodores a just f*king penis extensions of a car, that goes for all holdens. The only thing u can pick up in a bommodore is guys or bogan chix (like guys). i would rather ride a bicycle then a commodore. The only place a commodore really belongs is wrapped around a stobbie pole or a traffic light.

Now I know this comment is from a while ago but thats pretty one eyed mate.

Trust me mate theres Commos around that will lay waste to alot of Skylines.(Hey im only telling the truth)

Take a drive in some Commies before you start judging them because a few wankers drive them. :P

Used to love driving my VL's

Had 2 exchaser vl turbo's.

1st one was only putting out about 160kw @ RW on 9psi

2nd was 260KW @ rw on 17PSI

Of course they didn't look as good as a skyline but they were fast.

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
