I've got a black 33 S1. Pretty much stock at the moment, so if you see me around, don't forget to wave or something.

Most skylines that i see don't pay any attention to other skylines. I've only met 2 on the road to either gave me a little wave, or had a quick chat.

Really? Almost all other Skyline (and 180, etc) drivers always sneek a peek at my car when I drive past, and mine pretty stock looking (and I do the same, of course).

Whenever I can I try to take the opportunity to check out other peoples cars and have a chat - always fun.

Oh yeah, and I'm in the SE suburbs, and have noticed in the last 4 years more and more Skylines around. They've certainly come a long way from my dream car in Gran Turismo on the PSX! The more skylines out there the better I think - more spare parts! :uh-huh:

I get more other cars having a look. Most of them look at my wheels first and then give the once over the rest of the car. It is just skylines that don't pay too much attention to me.

But then again, I'm normally paying more attention to the road compared to checking if they are having a look. But if a line passes me, I've gotta check out what they have and if i should do that to my car.

I live near Hampton Park and it's funny - I always see all these Skylines with 40+ Indian mothers driving them around! It's a real crack up, especially the ones with venting BOV's :D. I go to drag them then realise who is driving it! Mum doing the shopping!

A few years ago many younger Indian (appearance) guys used to make a quick $ or two importing Skylines and selling them around my area, obvoiusly got stuck with a few and kept them as the family car! (hehehe just like when I was a kid on a fundraising chocolate drive - just sold them all to my family).

    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
