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.

    • So, more pain. The FAST manifold is a little larger than the stocker. This is problematic because there really wasn't much clearance to begin with, so going from 'barely enough' well into 'no' is sad based on the external dimensions of the thing, even though where it bolts to the head is the same. Result is the fuel rails sit a good 25mm higher, and this is a bit of an issue with the wiring that runs behind the motor, and the fuel lines, and everything else. When pushing the manifold on, it required a huge amount of force to crush wiring looms to fit it, sensors like the MAP sensor are about 1mm from the firewall, and the FPR just has to bend ABS lines to be forced into place. After some brainstorming and some sad drinking, the loom for some reason ran from the grommet behind the ABS sensor, then to the driver side head, then back to the passenger side head. So all of this was pulled back and stripped, a few wires cut and rejoined, so that the 'branch' was now on the passenger side's head as below: Before you basically couldn't see anything behind the driver head. This is much improved! The MAP sensor is now pointing up (instead of at the firewall) Brackets have been made up for the rail. The rails are for a LS1, the manifold is designed around a LS2 as it's base. Which of course has slightly different bracketry and water pump clearance, hence the mods people need to do. Should be hopefully mounted tonight. I spent money on a new FPR that is slightly more compact than my Turbosmart FPR1200. The gauge has also been moved to the rail. There's also apparently an ORB to AN Union instead of the adapter, because the ~25mm of the current adapter is going to make the difference. Provided this all goes together and arrives today, it'll be the totally not stressful attempt to start it.
    • This seems like a pointless exercise. There is no E30 availability. Ongoing availability of E85 should not be assumed. Flex-fuel is the only sensible approach, so you can use E85 when and where you can get it, 98 when that's al you can get, and anything in between as you fill it up and drain it down. And if that means replacing the pumps, fitting a flex capable sensor/ECU/whatever has to be done to these Renault shitboxen, then.....so be it?
    • Sorry, I wasn't very clear.....just that the standard injectors are apparently good over 600rwhp/450rwkw which you won't get to on standard turbos anyway.....they are much better sized from factory than we are used to in RBs.
    • I'm not sure where you are, but United Terrey Hills has E85.
