SAU users used to tend to be exclusively older, as the price of the cheapest import Skyline was $30k+. However, these days I feel a large part of the deterioration of SAU is the fact that a turbo Skyline can be had for well under $10k, and this opens the forum up to a myriad of younger users, who tend to type before they think on occassion.

hope i dont add to the 'type before they think on occasion' part

Anyone keen for a cruise down to victor one sunday in the next couple of weeks? Have lunch at the pub, chill out, get some pics etc. Weather the past couple of days has been awesome and been keen for a cruise.

I would be keen.....if i wasn't working every Sunday till 4pm

good to hear you arent apologising for something you dont have

just about every post I have seen you make has either been you blowing your own trumpet informing the world how good you are...hows the weather up there on your high horse there champ?

I wasnt the only one to notice it...and this is why you have had an example made of you

a few cliffnotes

1. you are not funny

2. you are not cool

3. your car sucks ass

4. shouting "nice cans" at a comittee member of a car show I am heavily involved in is a very quick way to lose your right to attend it

5. no one...and I repeat no one cares what you think about anything, ever

HTH

ahahahahha well said!!!

GOLD!!!!!!! :P

i had to lol at a mate of mine that i have not seen for a few years.... he has a tattoo of barbed wire around his bicep, and a spiderweb on his elbow and did not know that they both symolise u have been in jail

hahahahaahha

man this place is like aids lately, do not want.

ur words say no but your attendance says otherwise, sounds like someone is keen to join my club. and andrew its not son of rajab of the fags its "gay son of rajab" thank you

I definitely don't hate NS, but observe that the vast majority of posters 1). are under 18 years of age, and tend to show their lack of maturity in their comments and posts, and 2). the vast majority of users actually don't even own a car - yet are happy to shell out advice and opinions as though they are gospel.

very valid observation, but is it really only the young 1s that start the tear work? think we've had some older emo's in our time aswell. unfortunately growing up is only optional where as only growing old is not. but eh what ya gonna do :P n yes there prob is more younger emo's than older

i find it odd there are constant posts of sau is going down hill but they still keep coming back, its like fnfurious movie. you'll all complain its no good but you'll still pay good money to go see it.

I would like to personally shake hands with the person who invented seedless watermelon

i prefer shaking hands with beef myself

n craig you prob 1 of those ppl on tv that have the million dollars in interest waiting for them they dont know about :)

and i disagree with point number 5 position 3. if he does not care what he thinks then why post on here and eager for his response.

"For a long time, Koreans thought Dr. Wu Jang Choon invented seedless

watermelon, when in fact, he was the first Korean to demonstrated it in

Korea.

He never claimed to be the inventor. He was merely demonstrating the power

of the genetics. However, this revered Korean scientist was falsely

credited (by and amongst Koreans) for decades after his death in 1959.

It is indeed a Japanese scientist who invented it."

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
