Had my Skyline for 6yrs and have only been pulled over once, as i went through a booze bus.  Had the fmic, exhaust, and 19's for at least 4yrs, so the car never really looked stock.

It's all about how you drive, if you are an idiot on the road then they will always pull you over.  Once you have a bad rep. with the police the hassles never stop.  So keep driving like a fool and enjoy the harrasment, just don't cry like a biatch when they defect you 3 times in one month.  :lol:

fair enough, but some of us do get harassed for driving a "performance"

example- dropping a female friend of at a club sat nite resulted in being pulled over 3 times in 1hr,

1st policeman -breath test, licence,ok drive off, good guy polite etc

2nd policeman- breath test, check rear tires, check out the girl, ok drive off

3rd policeman-treatens to take my car of me, sees me doing a burn out, no wait heard the tires screech, or sees smoke, this wanker is pullind shit out of his arse, after debating with him for 15mins that i simply drove through a round about(and slowly) he gives me a fine for undue and exesive noise,($100 fine)even though i show him permits for my exhaust???

he simply wanted to target me

he goes on to tell me if i want to "hoon" go out of the city a do want you want

so i have been told by a policeman to go do burnouts

so al it is not how you drive its unbiased harrasment from cops with a night stick up there somewhere and i am sick of it

If this is really your opinion then stop having a cry saying "SAU does not drive illegally, etc. If someone wants to drive like an idiot and get hassled by police let them. SAU has no right to tell people how to drive unless they have a SAU sticker and are a SAU member. Then it reflects on the club. But just coz someone drives a skyline doesnt mean they have to drive like a grandma.

Exactly, even with the stickers i do not tell people how to drive. But don't come on this site and glorify your actions. What do ppl want to here; "that was fully hectik bro, last night i too done 2 doughies and fishied up the street". We all have cars capable of doing such actions, but who cares, we've seen/heard/done it ALL b4.

What most young guys don't consider is: what if the unexpected happens?

Such activites are best done in a controlled location. You only have to look at my sigs and you'll see i'm no granny when it comes to having fun in the 'line, but on the road a bit of respect for other ppl's safety must be shown.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • 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.
