Sure, here's my attempt.............

Left Bunnings car park. Drove around a bit & went home. The end.

How'd I do? :) (J/K)

Erica,

No prob's with running a girl :D I would've been happy to give it a go with you on Sir Don Bradman (we were side by side for a bit on the roll) I just figured you were content with cruisin' along? Oh well next time :D

Erica, when we had that drag across Victoria square,you must have come off the clutch pretty hard 'cause the squeal was huge.

My window was down so I copped it in the ear.

I think it's great that girls are out in Skylines, cant wait to see more of the fairer sex cruising in their own cars.

Cowboyb - we left Bunnings Mile End & fanged up to Mt lofty summit, nearly taking out a pack of L plate bikers on the way.We

freezed our asses off up there for a while(nearly filled both car parks) then hooned down Greenhill Rd,& up South rd to the Southern Expressway.Didnt see much off anybody on there as I was doing a Vmax run(go the Option video dejavu).Had some wild drags along south rd though.We met up at Moana surf club

for a while then headed back following Brute(a wild cruise leader)

then down Dyson road doing the usual flybys past law abiding citizens.I nearly rolled my R34 on the big dipper - passenger needed change of undies - & then we settled down for the lap down Brighton Rd to Glenelg.We all split up here.5 of us left cruised down Military rd then up West beach rd where we ran into

cheeky near the airport.We went up into the city & proceeded to

catch every red light through the centre having 3 wide.2 deep drags all the way. Down Rundle st then hackney & started dropping numbers on the way down NERd.Got home around 1ish.

Met heaps of new faces & had a great time.Cant wait for the next one.

John,

I was back behind you @ that point (nursing an o/heated clutch) saw your brake lights flash on & the car get very twitchy! I knew exactly what your hand signal was about a moment or 2 later :eek: :uh-huh:

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      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.
