they don't impress me at all, if you have ever driven one for a long time and are over 6 ft tall or worked on one you know they aren't put together very well compared to a lexus or even a honda ???

they look nice

draws chicks like flies on shite, (mostly gold diggers!!)

sound nice

drive a few was a huge disapointment.

but to each his own I guess

bet they would frown upon us low class skyline drivers showing them up on the curcuit track ..lol

If thats what it takes for you to make yourself feel better because you will never own one in your life than so be it. They are not track built cars, they are prestige sports cars, so saying that you will show them up on the track stiff shit. They are still worth more than the house you will never own.

Do you see an F1 Skyline? NO but you do see a F1 Ferrari.

Different philosophies at work

Scuderia Ferrari sell road cars to fund their racing ambitions. Pure and simple. This is why Tifosi are so fanatical

Nissan create the best road going cars they can as that is their primary focus. Their racing ambitions come secondary. This is extremely common (think Mercedes/AMG, Porsche/RUF, Nissan/Nismo, Holden/HSV, Ford/FPV etc). These manufacturers only do racing to get prestige among certain market segments.

You cannot compare the two. Ferraris, Lambos, etc, are wild to rock on a track, but you try to reverse them into a parallel park, or even an angle park, you'll be swearing more than a pissed sailor on shore leave...

Some perspective should be used when comparing any Brand, let alone models. Their motives determine what kind of car they produce.... for good or bad..

While thats nice it shouldnt be forgotten all car companies exist for one reason - to make as much profit as possible to keep the board happy.

Very few of them do it for the love :dry:

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
