Collectively with your friends you have almost enough standard parts in your respective garages to build another car or two.

When your suburban neighbours give you daggers as you drive down their street at 20km/h under the speed limit, wondering if they are going to report you to the EPA

When a highway patrol cop drives straight past a VB commodore doing 110km/h (in reverse), with no rego or plates, and full of rust, four bald retreads, pissing out smoke, with a driver that's consumed a 750 of Jack Daniels and is high on pot, uppers, downers, inners, outers, blue bombers, green goofers, horse tranquillizers, cow immobilizers and asprin....to defect you for an exhaust 2dB over the limit and the car being 1mm to low :D

aaahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahaahahahahahaha

you know when you own a skyline when u just speant 6 hours cleaning and detailing it on sunday then spend another 4 hours looking at it

When you have to buy your wife her own skyline so she doesnt drive yours!

When you buy an R31 wagon to run to the shops in so your beast doesnt get "doored" in the parking lot.

*Puts hand up* Guilty of both! :D

when you go shopping for a new family car, you make sure you get one that can have an RB engine in it, just in case you get a spare one, or so you can bolt on hand me down parts from your skyline. (R31's, cefiro's, laurel's, stagea's etc)

lol i got one of these the other day. i was doing 40km/h in a 50 zone and an old guy walking along the road with his wife stops and stares at me driving past, and then in the rear view mirror i see him shake his head and keep walking -- wtf? :D

You know you're driving a skyline when your insurance premium could feed an african family for 5 years.

    • Incidentally, I also put v3 of the tune on the car and did an oil change from 5w20 to 5w40 to see how it affected oil pressure in the mid to high end. I'm still happier with the thicker oil and will stick with it, but clearly the system is happy with 55psi even if I'm not!
    • So the other thing I got sorted over the weekend was Z1 oil catch can install. https://www.z1motorsports.com/z1-products/z1-motorsports/z1-q50-q60-30t-baffled-oil-catch-can-kit-p-23546.html It was a good kit, most importantly it came with preformed silicone hoses in the right shapes rather than trying to bend/join regular straight rubber hose. It did come with crappy spring clamps not proper hose clamps so I ditched them On the down side, it is made for LHD cars and RHD cars have the main ECU harness running straight through that location, I ended up bending 2 mounting brackets so the loom is up against the brake master cylinder compartment wall to make room for it....otherwise everything fit without modification Intercoolers off on both sides, but there was enough room to get everything done without disconnecting (and therefore having to re-bleed) the coolant lines. Each is mounted with 4x 12mm headed bolts, plus in and out side hose clamps (7mm headed, nice) and 3 electrical connectors on the navigator's side which were a real pain to undo (probably for the first time in 13 years).   Also one of the mounting bolts on the driver's side was cross threaded, thanks Infiniti/Nissan workshop mechanics. On the navigator's side, the catch can plumbs into the factory hose that goes from the cam cover PCV back to the intake.  This is the 2 new hoses in place. All simples and direct fit On driver's side, there is a bracket provided that mounts to the throttle body, they even provide slightly longer bolts to allow for the bracket thickness which is nice (although, they don't have captive washers like the factory bolts of course) In that pic the main loom brackets are not in place, once I had "adjusted" them across it now sits up against the panel and just clears the OCC The remaining problem with this is emptying it; currently you have to remove the 3x m4 bolts that hold it to the bracket and both banjos to remove it (probably dropping the banjo washers at the same time) pull it apart to empty then replace. I do have some fittings coming for a remote drain from underneath that will also add a little capacity...it is very small and will need to be emptied every oil change to be sure.
    • Noise sounds to me could be either wheel bearing related (have had similar from bearings going) or that tail shaft is still loose. Or something like a heat shield touching the tail shaft.
    • You wouldn't get away with saying the opposite, if you were there.
    • Do some wool fluff testing on the vents
