Official NSW Skyline spotted thread

Recommended Posts

Spotted a number of Skylines on Friday night heading into Bondi, and then at Bondi itself.  A black R34, a yellow R33 (maybe two, unless it was the same car I spotted twice), and a few others.

Had a play with a white R-32 on Oxford St around the Woollomoloo (sp?) and Paddington area, too...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH that was me

Ive finally been spotted...

the SAU sticker gave it away.... haha i was going to my mate.. those things are f**ken quick... awd big power etc etc he was like looks like a nugget.... then u gunned it past me and he was like ok i believe you.......

to be honest the muffler makes the car sound a bit shitty.... tell u this because i know every car has a different sound from OUTSIDE the car :) each to their own though :)

I was wondering if you were from SAU, 'cos I didn't spot any stickers on the car (kinda hard when you're travelling down Oxford anyway, what with all the suicidal pedestrians and fking taxis stopping whenever and where-ever they want to).

Yeah, the big Stagea ain't too bad, hey? Was actually expecting to be left behind by you, considering the MASSIVE weight difference. Apart from the exhaust (I took the silencer out tonight to see if it improves fuel economy, by the way, so hopefully it sounds a bit different too) and the manual conversion done by the previous owner (R-32 GT-R box and six-puck clutch), it's stock as a rock - for now... Different time, different place (away from the street, or at least that much traffic), maybe the resukts will be different again.

Cheers,

Nick T. ;)

Spotted: Some hero in a silver series 2 GTS-T "ZGR-***" with green P's yesterday afternoon at Artarmon doing side to side fishtails down the middle of the highway city bound in peak hour.

Top effort moron!

LOL nah not that early id kill you....

that wouldnt of happened to be an old model white commodore? if so and the driver was a guy, id say stare him out and give him shit..... i had a small confrontation once with 2 guys in a white commodore in my area, they wanted to take it further until my younger brother (who is twice the size of me) came outside... became 2 on 2...hehehehe

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
