I drive past Plympton alot. Hope that wasn't me....what kind of rims and headlights??

I haven't seen any black Coupes like mine down my end of town.

Driving into the city I see V's a fair amount but it is the first V I have seen in my area of Plympton.

It had a black grill with an infinity badge, black rims and aftermarket headlights.

The only badge on the back was Skyline, looked like it had been modified a bit to look like a sleeper.

If it was you, please :action-smiley-069: to me next time, feeling a little lonely in my V. (don't look at how dirty it is at the moment though!)

I have a black grill, infinity badge and aftermarket headlights. Also only have the skyline on the back. But i dont have black rims, dark not black. Also i have a quad exhaust if you saw the back?

I may have mistakenly thought that the rims were black, they were definitely dark rims. Very nice ride :)

Thats it there...havent taken any recent piccies of it

Not real dark rims, May not have been me, but haven't seen any others like mine with my mods

Also it has SA plates now, so ignore the VIC ones

The rims were like a dark powdercoat and the front was the same.

I was in my silver V35 four door, car is completely original including the rims but has a double barrel exhaust. SA number plate ending in ACD.

It was in morning peak hour traffic so I will forgive this time if it was you :yes: but next time I want a :wave:

So basically i'm keeping it on the low-down and keeping out of trouble and trying not to draw attention to myself incase i do meet an educated police officer who knows that the car is illegal for me.

Sorry, that was my point.. it isn't illegal/restricted for you in Qld.. it is under 210kw, isn't a V8 or turbo charged.. so you don't need to worry..

Even if it's over the power to weight ratio legal limit? :whistling:

Power to weight only applies when applying for an exemption. I thought that vehicles had to be below 206kw?

^^ what he said.. (except it is under 210kw in Qld).

That is why I previously said that if Qld Transport ever decide to ban the 350GT, you don't have any hope of getting an exception..

i pass thru plympton most days. 90% of the time i dont see any either, then occasionally i see more than a few in a couple hours.

oh and define "double barrel exhaust"

    • I just changed the timing belt on my RB25DET NEO and wanted to get some opinions. I’ve been super cautious, did a lot of research, and took my time. I’ve driven the car, and it runs fine. After warming it up, I revved it to 8000 RPM a few times—no issues, everything held up.   After the drive, I heard a noise that I think is either the clutch or possibly a tight accessory belt. It’s not constant, just comes and goes.   I took the timing cover off to double-check everything:   Belt is on properly, Tensioner is tight, Did the 90-degree twist test—belt isn’t too tight or too loose.     What still worries me is that I noticed the belt seems to sit a little toward the front edge of the gears, especially on the idler pulley. It even looks like it’s slightly coming off the edge there. Is that normal?   My old belt (5 years old, ~3,000 miles) also showed a bit of wear on that same edge, so maybe it’s just how it sits? I’m probably overthinking this, but since it’s my first time doing this on a NEO and the engine is forged, I really don’t want to mess anything up.   Also, I’m thinking of swapping to a clear front timing cover with the glass window. Would you recommend NITO or HPI? HPI looks reputable and their covers have 2.5mm thickness, but not sure if there’s a real difference between the two.   Any advice or reassurance would be much appreciated!
    • 40 grit sounds about right, to start. You make some decent cuts/damage in the coating with that, then rapdily scale up to maybe 80 and 120 for the bulk of the actual removal, then fine it off to 180 or 240 perhaps. No need to go any finer than that, and maybe no need to go even as fine as that. Wrap it on a big block and have at it. At least on the hub face.
    • Do the GKTech rear lower control arm mount relocation, and either alloy subframe inserts or very stiff subframe bushes. Traction is going to be at a premium!
    • Hello,   My name if Frederick, i'm 30 years old and I live in Belgium, Europe! I used to have a Nissan 370z daily but since I got a company car I turned that into my seattime driftcar. About 3 years ago I also wanted something older with more feel, so I got an R32 GTST with an rb26 engine. I am now getting the rb built to have around 800hp and it's close to being finished. I'm very excited for how it will drive and how driveable it will be! Regards, Fred!
    • Appreciate the insight! Talked to some local folks and they basically told me "it's not that deep." As long as the threading on the inside matches what's at the steering rack, everything else can be constructed-to-fit. There are full aftermarket kits I can use - probably better for my car overall since it's lowered.  Example: GKTech M14 Super Adjustable Inner Tie Rod Set - Nissan Skyline R32 R33 R33, 240SX, 300ZX, 350Z / Infiniti G35 M14I-TROD-2 gktM145-TROD gktM14I-TROD - Concept Z Performance (These can be packaged with their "high misalignment" tie rod ends).
