hahaha when i first got my liner i used to drive around and other skyline drivers would wave.. i was fully like 'wtf' and then squish told me its a 'thing' they all do.. i'd usually wave back but i kinda felt like a knob waving to someone i didnt know lol but nah i didnt have any abusive ones.. they were all nice, even if i was waiting for traffic so i could pull out, they would stop and let me go.. aww so nice ;) lol

are you good looking?

if the answer is yes, then there's your explanation :D

i wave and flash my lights at any skyline driver ... some wave back beep or flash back ones that dont i found out are usually boostloosers with stickers everywhere .. causing havok in traffic trying to show off how fully sick their bov is ? otherwise generally speacking 90% drivers are pretty cool pull up for a chat etc.. thats how i met lynden ! ma white kiwi twin !!

ive found that other skyline drivers ignore me if i wave at them in brisbane. in smaller towns like bundaberg and toowoomba skyline drivers are more than happy to pull over and have a chat to you. i guess people in the city are just rude...

Its really wierd.... I used to own a RX7 and fellow Rotary drivers would wave all the time, if i knew them or not! now i would be lucky to get a nod let a lone a wave (not that im looking for one-- i dont give a shit) in my skyline, and no most rotary drivers dont wave any more! (lol) :(

I have seen many rude skyline owners. Personally I tend to smile and nod not so much wave. Vish I was too busy drooling over your car and trying to read the plates backwards. Theres one chick in particular and its not Amy Lee, with a white 33 and black bonnet, along Johnson Rd that has snobbed myself and my friend in his car .............totally rude.

All of us cefiro owners give the nod or the wave... But the numbers are still pretty low.

I guess its to do with them being more common, its not AS special to own one these days as compaired to when the whole thing started. So now its just another skyline. Where as even 3 years ago it was hey look another skyline!

Thats my theory anyway.

a turbocharged bronze r31 stole fuel from my work this morning around 3.30am

rude prick has no idea how much paperwork i have to fill out when that happens :):)>_<

heh lucky i had a whinge, someone from the 31 owners club spotted this and pointed me at a thread where a 31 had been stolen on the same night.

yep it was the same car.

so working with the owner and the police to track the f**kers down.

this thread pwns :)

Yer hopefully he can get it back in one piece, putting a RB30DET in a 31 is good, but you need alarms in them to stop this happening...

I drive a 31, most people in 32, 33 and 34's don't take much notice of me. :(

i guess u only take notice if you are a previous owner of a 31. Then again alot of 31 owners snub me :cool:

I see plenty of lines between home, work and uni (between Munruben and Upper Mt Gravatt).

I can count the number of friendly liners on 1 hand... and that was a certain Yellow R34 with a nice loud stereo :cool:

Usually I get asians or middle easterns (no racisim) here, and they look at me confused when I wave.... they just don't understand.

That said, I saw a little white boy today in his car "SMOKE U" who seems to visit browns plains... nice driving dude... honestly, just put a new sticker on your car that says "Pull me over".

I use to have a Silver 4 door R32 with a big front mount who'd wave at me along mt lindsay highway in the 90 zone (around granger/stoney camp rds).

Now I'd be lucky to see a line not driven by a bogan. But that's what happens when the locals get some cash and realise the potential of a skyline... bummer they usually don't pick decent ones that are clean and tidy :(

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
