I saw a SII GTS-T loose the back end out around a quiet round-about. The driver had just driven from Buderim to Caboolture, to Caboolture to Ormeau and at 5:30pm from Ormeau to Buderim.

I was tired, two minutes from home :)

Completely misread the road, even though I drive down it twice a day.

Saw a silver R33 Series 2 4-door the other day, first one I've ever seen not in photos, looked sweeeeeet

It didn't happen to have R33 GTR rims by any chance? I haven't seen another silver R33 series 2 sedan getting around Brisbane yet. . . . Was hoping mine was a little unique :D

Saw a series 6-8 RX7 liying in a dicth next to the Gateway Motor way yesterday morning.

Just on the north side of the East-West Arterial. Looked rather nasty?

Any one hear anything about that?

Hey, Mud this is a Skyline forum buddy, we only talk Nissan 'cause we're tuff. Okay?

Yup, that should be mine. Jill works for an accounting firm around there, she drives it to work everyday. Phew. Don't want too many getting around.

I saw that cream coloured r31 yesterday... I laughed for ages.... With the stickers down the side and the v8 style bonnet scoop.... Se flawed off at the lights and it sounded and went like a standard 31. I let him go as there were police in the servo over the road watching him. I saw them smiling too. LOL

Just to re-cap it is the uglyest 31 i have ever seen. I reckon he is like the two guys in the zinger ad where they add body parts made of cardboard to the family car. Except this guy went with the real deal parts.

    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
