I think thats like 95% of any car club Damo.

I agree totally. :P

I disagree a little though roo, ive been involved in a some of the more prestige clubs over the time(ie mustang etc),and there are certainly a lot of tossers out there,but ive seen the owners actually looking after their cars and try to keep there name of the club clean,not out drifting in the city or suburbsiin broad daylight,or slagging other clubs while on line for all to see. Of course we dont have to like their clubs if we dont want too just like other things keeping it known but discreet is the key i rekon,some of the younger lot dont understand this theory.

I mean i know we arent a club instead a gathering of people with import cars etc,just think that not enough people think before they talk/act and ruin it for others,both to stay in the club or wanting to join in future.

enough of my opinion /

Sorry mate, a bit loose with the "any" car club comment. I've only been exposed to those car clubs (gemis, escorts, skylines, silvias, 1600s) that do attract alot of younger owners.

Tracy's brother Paul hangs with alot of mature Street Machine owners and they're very laid back socially and big enthusiasts. Perhaps I'll get me that SLR afterall and get into the street machine scene. :P

I ride with some girls and they're pretty much one of the boys ... so they get called 'mate' and they have no problem with it.

On the topic of bikes and girls ...

I hate those young tossers who think they've got a chance trying to hit on the girls in the biker group. Like they think because they ride a bike too, the girls are so going to try and hook up. "Hey babe, I ride too. See my sexy 250cc? Bet you'd like to ride it" :)

And the tossers who think getting a motorcycle adds sex appeal. Most of them dress like dorks and ride like twats ... there's nothing appealing about it :P You ride for the passion for bikes, not for the perceived Hollywood-promoted image.

Told you you'd regret selling it :)

Yeah, most of the old school bikers aren't out as much anymore. Too many softies and egos on bikes now, with their "gold card" shiny new gear :P

You going to view the Toy Run riding past Damo? Tracy and I will be in it.

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
