yeah i get the p plater's and the 200sx trying to have a go.

its like safty in numbers in car parks cant say if done it.

never get tailgating by v35s or anything like that, just the odd racer boy in his 32 33.

Well you are in VIC, aka '33 boy-racer central.

I never get the carpark thing. Nor do I get tailgated by other import drivers.

I guess most just don't know what an M35 is.

I've had a few high beam flashes from guys in R33/R34's... also had a chat and a bit of a drag with a guy in a Sil80... his RWD manual was no match from one set of lights to the other lol.. AWD for the win!

does anyone else notice

:park in a empty carpark and another nissan import (v35 skyline etc) will be parked right next to you

:tailgating to get your attention

:friendly wave

i seem to notice this abit :D

nah they seem to follow me around for some reason (every time I go interstate I get 8-10 of them showing up :down: )

I sometimes purposely park next to another import (or similar type of car), particularly if its nicely modified etc.

Just the theory that obviously the person looks after their car so less chance of me getting a door opened into my car etc.

Otherwise, cant say I've noticed skylines etc parking next to me a lot - but if they do, they're quite welcome, I'll often check them out when I walk past anyway...

    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
