Helllllllllooooooooo I'm still here, just got the suspension changed in my 34 today actually. So I'll be spending a little more time driving it around now. I have some sad news though, I'm moving

Blew the cobwebs out of @Sinista32 last Sunday for a few hours. It's great to get the passion back every so often

No you just tried to give him a run. Stop telling us how you are driving like a dickhead.

Spotted Bluprint at old bus depot building today

...Nah not really, I was just following the crowd and trying to be cool.

I did however spot a silver R33 GTR go driving past me on Ginniderra Drv thismorning. I was in the STAGEA towing an awesome orange U-Haul trailer, go U-Haul!

I am coming to canberra again in a few weeks to get Julian to work some of his magic on my R33.

I am warning you all that SOMEONE....ANYONE...spot me :(

Even when I lived in Canberra I was always out and about, I think i was only spotted once.

Guess thats what happens when you have a white series II - there are just too many - but I have VIC plates

Someone kill her;make the world a better place...(Sorry,but people that can't drive shouldn't be on the road,rightly or wrongly...)

Spotted a silver Stag' on Majura Road testerday eve' as the sun was almost gone. Waved,but I may've been a bit slow(100 km/h each way.Oh,my bad;90 km/h in that area,isn't it?). You may not have noticed me;was in the BlingMobile.

Haha thanks. I get to spot Julians R32 when I come to canberra, its so nice - and a bit of fun too just quietly

At least she didnt run a red (although still pretty dangerous) I had some tool run a red when I wa turning right into boddington on a green arrow there a few months back, VERY close call.

Spotted a silver S2 R33 down limestone at about 3:50 this afternoon turning off to civic just cruising behind me.

Also saw a nice white 33 giving it some on the end of Northbourne through the sweepers to Woden last night which sounded pretty good.

However, didn't spot the jeallous lowlife who spat all over my drivers side while my car was parked opposite Mooseheads.

Spotted a silver 33 GTS-T getting carried away with his Dorifto skills at Kingston this morning. Whilst a fan of wielding a serious slipper into the firewall, there's a time and a place. In front of all the people going to Kingston markets isn't it. One lady a few metres up from me thought so,too: she took down the rego' plate and let everyone know she'll talk to the authorities. If you're on hear bud', you'd better hope she simmered down before picking up the phone, as there were enough people around to land you in big do-do.

Note to all: remember,kiddies-there's a time and place for everything!

That might have been me, I came home that way from taking a load to the tip, I had my awesome hired trailer on the back.

Sup guys?? im new i driving a black 4 door r34 with black rims. its all show with no go. im looking for somone to help me put some power into it. any places or people you guys recomend??

ESP on Gilmore Road,Queanbeyan. They work with 1000hp GT-R's,585Kw WRX's...if they can't find power in your car,you'll have to travel a lot further to get results!

      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

      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 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.
