Some Observations From An Old Noob.

[BelGarion]

oh, heh

you think you got worries driving a skyline with a exhaust to the track.... lol

i used to drive this to the track with 6 tyres in the back seat and usually 2 stacked in the front seat....

[seriesII]

i so agree with alot your saying... but there is always two sides to something.... im not saying track is bad, im giving reasons for why ppl do not go... racing on a street, and im not talking about racing in trafic scaring other drivers... cops do not know your there.. but track days and what , cops are aware, its like driving into a storm... so its safer going to a area were cops know were you are????, or is it safer going to a area were know one knows were you are?.... there is alot of street racing going on that ppl dont know about, .. thats how it al started... but, look, im not saying track is bad.. best place to go and learn and have fun... but do we want fines , and its not about the money, you do know this can effect your licence and rep with cops.. they do take plate numbers down to watch for fun, then, pow, nice drive to get mcdonalds, then a cop knows you, pulls you over on a harmless food run and would like to look over your car as they know about you and have told you before to remove the mod... which is easier?..hahaa.... i dont wanna drive to work and get pulled over for the hell of it.. i know of ppl who have sold there cars because of this crap,, and i know some others out there know what im saying instead of a one sided conversation...... does this explain it beta.... take a little bit in of what ppl say and do what you want with it. thats how we learn right?..... "and if you dont want fines, dont mod your car?" so your saying not to have something we want?, and forget about it because of fines. you can have a moded car and not get caught and fined.. get a jasma stamped exhaust for one hey.... see you can do things and get away with it... get a black intercoooler?, that works well... funny how some stock cars come out faster then a stock skyline but we cannot mod our car to match the factory kw/?... i drive every were, and only fine ive got was to low.. the cops didnt even know what a dump pipe was... those cops are fine.. the cops that search for cars going to track/events, know a little bit more... i woulds rather test my luck with a random patrol cop

hey, im not starting crap.. just adding to this topic.

i love the dick terms.. haha.. funny , hard to have nice things without ppl bringing that into play..

i would rather look at my car and go,, nice, instead of, on no what could i have done with this car.... i will say, everyone has been to a track now and then... for sure...ans yes, cops have always knowen, but it is worse now. we all now that.. more cars, more cops wanting to stop ppl fron having there nice cars...

not a real modded car........ but it is daily driven.

your saying that by going to the track all the time to race my car, drift my car, ect i am drawing attention to myself? ffs every time i back outta my garage where im living right now half the f**king town hears about it.

as for real cars drive to the track darren appleton drove drf13 to the track every drift meet, 180go won the high tech shootout at qr and got driven to and from the track. been to a drift event lately? only a handfull of cars are towed there champ.

you can either sit there with ya dick tucked between your legs where its nice and safe and be terrified of the cops or you can man up get ya wang out and go to the track and prove to yaself and others what ya car can do

So off topic, where are the pics now your car has been resprayed? Erin said it looks realllllly nice.

Now back on topic. What might help a few people is SDT and a few other companys run driver training track days. Where they teach you how to drive properly round a track etc. They arent too badly priced, like they are more than a normal track day, but then you do have someone in the car teaching you what you should and shouldnt be doing. Might help a few people get in to it more.

^^^ i had a link to one in brisane area.. was awesome... damn i lost the link.. was like $300 ish i think and you get to use a diffferent car from yours to learn in... you own rw, they give you fw.. hehe.. its crazy.. and crazzzzy fun... they had a toyota ae86 last time i think... beat up, but sweet...

crashing is good. you some times learn quicker.. hehe... been there done that..hehe . airbags work well in the skyline.. to much white power though, you smell like that crap for a while..hehe

Series II believe what you want but "Jasma" stamped exhausts mean ABSOLUTELY nothing! Nor does anything else. You WILL still be fined. Sure cops hang around track days etc sometimes...so what....deal with it. Your "secret squirrel" spots that you race are probably as well known to the cops as qr. I've been to the track numerous times and NEVER been fined in cars that WERE illegal and actually modified, no mod plates for anything (high mount turbo etc) and atmo venting screamer pipe and straight through exhaust....bottom line is it all comes down to luck of the draw. Like James said, you can hide at home or come to the realisation that you drive a sterotyped "hoon" car and the police will probably fine you for driving it, illegal or not.

Meh each to their own, i'm not saying i've never street raced, far from it. Just saying that it IS safer and wiser to take it to the track. lol i'm not going to comment any further on modifying cars and getting caught by police or taking it to the track..this seems to be going in circles and it's been covered a million times before.

Besides Series II, you have nothing to worry about defect wise, your car is all legal from what I can see in your sig mod list so I don't think the police will be pulling you over at Maccas and asking you to remove anything...except maybe your pod if it isn't secure.

[seriesII]

yeah i should be fine... lol... dont think i list everything in a signature.. LMAO!!!!!!!!!!... have i put anything like no cat blah blah and power fc in my sig (and cleary i own one as i bought it from this forum, just check the buying rating on my account), no i havent, i like to look as legel as i can, instead of ppl blabbing out loud of what they have which is illegal.. LOL

you dont tell ppl what you have or going to do, there the PEOPLE WHO GET CAUGHT... !! if im running 11psi, clearly i have more then what i meantion in my sig..lol.. you only open your eyes to what you can see hey?...

...i poped one more mod in my sig for fun them ....

AND true. im over the topic, i feel it can go either way, and depends were you live and what you have been through.. all i can say is,, stay opened minded and dont close your mind to other people thoughts.. . and the topic was asking why they dont see skylines more at track days, and i have put my free words in for you all.. so take it how you need to or how far your mind can take it, or outside the box for once..

LOVE THE HATE!

jasma means nothing.. oh no, i beta rub that of then..

i do need a box for my pod, thanx for reminding me... . why would you think if we dont go to track that we stay home.?. and hide? .. hehe. hmm..

......and You say stupid things

[r33_racer]

Damn, hasnt this gotten blown out......

[seriesII]

......and You say stupid things

lol........ .. you say funny things ;P

"smarter" would be for "you" to point out your issue in the conversation, and what you dont understand..... lol...

calling some one elses free mind stupid?, really shows how much of a moron you are?, so you took your self down on that one. hhehe... thats called Ignorant.

why start and join this?, if you cannot listen to others.. yet again ill say: im sure the main question was; why dont you see more skylines at a track day?.. was it not.. so you want to sit there and only listen to your commen answer from ppl on here?, seems like you need to hang around other ppl then forum/car people?, and maby see how others work in this world?.. get out more.. I do have question marks in my conversation...

i bath in hate

Lol you tell them, I didnt buy mine for a track or drift, I just liked the whole concept, they are truely a well made fast car. The level of workmanship is up there with the best and ride comfort etc etc. As a daily you couldnt ask for more, It has cost me to get to this level and I have had to forgo quite a few things to get to it, one day I would like to compete but not until I am able too.

[Ad_N]

bahaha 93 with 100k on the clock? yer mabey if ya speedo has been wound back, try 200 thou

has it been thrashed? every klm from the day i got it.

is it modified? most people know whats done to it, sure is modded

been to track days? shitloads, drove to morgan park, a good couple of hundred ks away from the coast, thrashed the car all day long in the heat, helped slip change his waterpump on his 31 drove home again and drove to work the next day.

door to door racing? a well known driver throwing his car sideways behind you because he ran outta brakes and is about to ram the back of my car close enough for ya?

ive been for a casual cruise and smashed my clutch and had to drive the car home in 3rd yet ive been to a track day and spent the day belting round the circuit with other cars with the aircon on and the radio going.

been through 3 gearboxes, 2 diffs, 3 turbos, an intercooler.

im not rich, nor am i even well off, im just a lowly tradesman but god f**king damn have i enjoyed owning a skyline.

essentially what im saying is you can have a daily drive and thrash the crap outta it. if you learn how to maintain your car and repair it yourself its gonna cost you less. Sitting there and being scared of taking your car to the track and enjoying its true potential is not only a waste of a car, but your robbing yourself of the pleasure of truly enjoying one of nissans greatest creations, GTR or otherwise.

seriesII you might be able to thump a v8 commodore on the street but when youve beaten a 100k gto round a race track lap after lap, then you truly know what your car is capable of.

dont want the fines? dont mod the car, or better yet, dont own one. if your not prepared to take the good with the bad with owning a particular type of car (steriotypes ect) then put it up for sale. But again, your robbing yourself of the joy and experience because your afraid of the boys in blue, They win, you loose either way. For the record, cops have been hounding import owners since they hit the streets of aus.

enjoy your car any way you choose to, but dont rob yourself of the experience that your car has the potential to give you.

not a real modded car........ but it is daily driven.

your saying that by going to the track all the time to race my car, drift my car, ect i am drawing attention to myself? ffs every time i back outta my garage where im living right now half the f**king town hears about it.

Well bloody said! I agree with you Noel.

And thats all I have to say about that.

[Lazy-Bastard]

lol........ .. you say funny things ;P

"smarter" would be for "you" to point out your issue in the conversation, and what you dont understand..... lol...

I don't have "an issue in the conversation". Actually I have no idea what you are talking about, as your sentence construction is shocking. Did you mean my "point of view"?

calling some one elses free mind stupid?, really shows how much of a moron you are?, so you took your self down on that one. hhehe... thats called Ignorant.

I didn't say you were stupid, I said you say stupid things, and you do. You are constantly contradiciting yourself. Please get your story straight. Oh, and STOP STREET RACING.

Also, congratulations on the personal attack on my intelligence, calling me a moron. Well thought out! That one really cut me to the quick

why start and join this?, if you cannot listen to others.. yet again ill say: im sure the main question was; why dont you see more skylines at a track day?.. was it not.. so you want to sit there and only listen to your commen answer from ppl on here?, seems like you need to hang around other ppl then forum/car people?, and maby see how others work in this world?.. get out more.. I do have question marks in my conversation...

Please....enough with the ramblings. We have all gathered by now that you are too soft, and cannot afford the petrol, to take your car to the track, so please sell it and buy a Camry.

i bath in hate

I'm sure you've had plenty of practice

f**king idiot.. you aren't going to get cornered by the police at a track day, you are at no higher risk of getting defected there then you are when you travel to your "unknown place" (thought i'd jump on the band wagon there warwick! lol).

If you were smart, you'd listen to some of the advice here.

$100 says you've never been to the track and are talking out your ass.

[Primordial]

$100 says liz is right...

this thread started off with a good point but turned into shit... yes literal SHIT. I've crapped better conversation than what you guys are arguing about!

i can afford alot more then most of you here..

This stands out, I don't know you, nor dislike you. But why do you own a Gtst with basic mods? if you have a bank roll for more. Sure, you may like gtst's, however i'm just interested.
