Oh, so coz i get picked on and chose not to do anything, im in the wrong? i was way ahead of them and they flew through the traffic just to get to me.

i didnt even want to race them, wrong place and time and i dont do that kinda sh*t anyway. if anything i wanted to speed off to get away from them, but they got the idea after seeing i wasnt doing anythin.

lol as if i'll race a 300kw car anyway

lol you clearly said in ur next post that you "would have" (in reply to "you should have smoked them") if it weren't for you being next to a police station.

what u did in the end was fine, u shouldnt have "smoked them" unless u were happy with lowering urself to their level.

Lol yeah i did say that,,i jus meant te thought crossed my mind, but even as soon as i saw him start driving alongside me, i knew i wasnt gonna do it..was kinda hoping the other car was a cop car, so the r8 wud get busted :P ..but yeh im real glad i didnt do anythin,,i jus thought they were being idiots

Some of you guys need to stop being so sensitive.

It may come as a surprise, but not everyone who buys a "insert car" wants to be apart of a car gang based on the car they drive. Some of these blokes might think your actually trying to crack onto to them or something.

lol

wow! this is a big suprise to me! as a matter of fact i have been overwhelmed with the friendlyness of fellow skylines owners here in perth, im always exchanging waves etc.

when i drove a holden i noticed other holden owners were arrogant and never gave thumbs up

Maybe i should move to perth...

F***ing R33 drivers and their egos...really shitting me at the moment. And this is coming from an R33 driver!

The last 5 I've seen have come up really fast behind me in traffic / sat next to me "dosing" their heads off just to get my attention...but then when I look at them to wave or thumbs up they're just staring straight ahead trying to ignore me? Here I drew a diagram:

LOL... I drove past a chick with a white 32 that was similar to mine and smiled and waved and I got the cold shoulder. RUUUUUDDEE!! Yeah there are some arrogant ppl out there but at the end of the day and in the whole scheme of things does it really matter? It is a shame though that they think theyre better than others not to wave but meh. And maybe theyre just having a bad day?

I always try to wave at an oncoming skyline, if they see me. if there is a chance ( won't be waving while busy with the road and beeping the horn would make people worry )

When i drive around in r31 (wagon) i don't even try to wave, however i got some waves from other 31 owners, and always replied back. Hard to guess if it's a skyline or a grandpa in pintara as well... and don't feel like waving to "higher" model skylines too for some reason.

when driving in r33, again, some people don't even look, and some wave first or reply.

in terms of acknowledging the model, i notice there is a bit of a gap between 31 and the 32-34 models, and stagea too...

By the way, i started thinking about the actual waving thing only after registering at this forum. before, didn't have a clue, but most likely would be happy if someone had waved.

:dry:

At the moment I drive a Tarago. When ever I see another young person driving one I can generally converse with them ahaha. Its pretty entertaining.

I'm getting an R33 GTST. If I see another R33 driver Id give the nod of the head. Even now, I give the occasional nod to R33 drivers because I admire the car. I'm not getting the car to boast. Its just a car Ive always wanted and now that my license permit, I can finally own one.

Is there a Skyline AU sticker we can get for our car or something?

    • Yep, replacing all those hoses is kind of just bog standard if you're ever back there. Only hose on the back of the engine I have yet to replace is a vacuum hose for the wastegate. I'll probably do it eventually but it's in such an annoying spot.
    • I was actually just planning on replacing the fourth gear parts in the gear box that I broke … like the synchro hub or cone. And any other parts I need once I open up the transmission. That a bad idea? The rest of the gears feel tight. these parts shouldn’t be too much … just the labour here won’t be cheap. Just replacing these in HK would be around 2k aud including labour.    how much is a new r33 or r32 transmission?    thanks for the good info as usual       
    • I chose a bad time to buy, at the time there was no gtst's for sale in NSW and my options were qld, vic, or sa and not the greatest examples or too far out of my budget. Ended up picking this one from adelaide sight unseen and got a bit stitched up as you could expect but i dont fully regret it, its just a shame people cant be more transparent in this day and age.
    • IMO just buy a whole R33 transmission and swap the whole thing. Use a palm nailer/air hammer with a roll pin punch to drive the shifter rod end roll pins out. The rod end is discontinued so don't break it. Use gasket dressing on the OEM paper gasket instead of RTV. I personally would not pry on the shifter cover tabs, I broke one trying that instead of just smacking the side with a dead blow rubber mallet to shock it loose from the RTV the last mechanic applied. If you can't get the flanges totally clean and free of any residual RTV and/or you might have a gap that is bigger than it should due to flange damage use RTV on that surface instead of the OEM specced anaerobic sealer. Anaerobic sealer is most likely the right sealant for the job, it's just too easy to mess it up with too large a gap or bad surface prep/roughness seemingly. If you do rebuild what you have it's for a whole gearset that can take high torque. Don't bother with OEM at that point.
    • Little hose. Big hose. They're all waiting to kill the engine.
