SUP.

this thread is for community spirit i guess... this thread is about..

let's list the imported / JDM / AUDM japanese cars that you do and don't "wave" or "give the thumbs up" to... feel free to elaborate on why you do it..

me:

GIVE KUDOS TO:

R32 Skylines - you guys are a good bunch who usually spread love back

C34 Stageas - again, you guys are a good bunch of blokes, who usually aren't afraid to give a wave if someone's waving @ u

Z30 Soarers - I'd rather not cos most of them are Ugandan

Z20 / Z10 Soarers - these i go nuts for. anyone driving this in 2011 deserves a medal

Ke70 corolla / JZX series cars / any and all bizzare imports like Y34 / Y31 / A31 / C210 / MA61 / JZA70 / R31 etc.. i give it up for these dudes daily..

I DONT GIVE KUDOS TO:

WRX - these guys are not cut from the same cloth

EVO - these guys tend to thumb their nose at me

Nissan Z cars - again, usually driven by owners who just dont "get it"

R33, R34, V35 drivers - again, most of these drivers particularly R33 drivers dont show love to me they just look down their noses at me so i show no love to them.. i'm also noticing an increase of drivers of these cars who are not on the forum so i dont bother... sorry guys!

M35 stageas - just no.

Galant / Legnum drivers - again these owners seem to think they're exempt from showing love to JDM owners..

what about you guys? do you have a "no" list?

a yes list? what is it and why

If i know the person down here (ie bunbury) i wave, otherwise the rest i dont bother as they hoon around and cause trouble. Up in perth if i'm driving the 32, which hasnt happened in a while, i will wave if they wave pretty much. The early Z's down here are usually tucked away and don't come out much, these guys i chat to a bit when i work in town and we get along ok. Silvias are the same, quite a few down here are kids and arent polite

OH AND AND AND!!! one more thing!!!!

i was outside washing my car the other day at 6pm on a friday, as you do... and i hear

VvvvvvRRRRRRMMMMM PSSSSHHTTTtut tu... VrrRRrrrRRrooOOOOPSHHTTTtttu tu tu...

casually driving up my street, head down to see what it is...

it's a mid 1980's datsun stanza with an RB engine and a tiny little polite front mount.. and some wide 15inch rims...

i wave.. car flashes beams at me and waves back...

the driver:

A hot brunette with a sexy fringe and black frame gasses. cute as hell.

im in love.

Hot. BRB stairwell.

why not an M35 Stagea?

whats wrong with us?

I get snobbed by every M35 I come across. The only M35 driver I haven't been snobbed by was andynogo but I ran into him on foot at the shops :P

Oh and a few of us C34 boys rolled into Carousel HJs carpark on night before heading into the hills. There was a couple of R33s, and R34 and maybe an S13.. there was also a towtruck driver near us eating dinner. Some smart ass skyline driver was like "huhuhuh the towtrucks here to pick the Stageas up" :dry:

So before we left, we watched one of the Skylines being put on the back of another flat bed that rocked up :rofl:

Unfortunately, that was the night I snapped my gearbox :(

P.S. Aaron, I love your avatar :laugh:

Eps man, yumad4? You do a lot of raging about people not waving to you :P

Me, I wave to all imports if I see them in time. And if I'm driving next to one, I give them some bov love and a wave :D I hardly ever get any love back though. Most people look at me like I'm a nutjob. Others think I want to race so they just take off...

At least... :ermm: At least I think that's why they take off... :unsure:

      Yeah this was also my suspicion, that pineapples exist to reinforce the OEM bushes because people CBF taking the subframe out to do it. Basically that pineapples and subframe lock collars perform the same intended task. The cup still bolts in under the bush/crush tube.. as to how it'll go I don't know. Two of the bushes at the back look mostly the right shape. The ones up front clearly have the impressions left by the pineapples. Time will tell whether this will work/make any difference. Ideally I would not want any lock collars or pineapples, I'd just want the bush to do the job of the bush. Time will tell if the car works correctly with only the poly bushes in the state they're in. Worth seeing, I think.  What panel work are you looking at? I'm shelving everything from the A pillar forward because it's shit/doesn't function and this was before I drove off at the track and then drove into somebody! A second hand Reo and brackets is $1000, which is just cray when Mr.Hammer turns this piece of metal in regular metal shape.. considering it needs to be drilled to be adapted to the GTR headlight brackets anyway... So I'm all for $0 instead of $2000 (new 34 GTR reo) for the same result lol.

      I think he's already demonstrated that that's the way he's treating it post the paint jail release.

      Yep that makes sense, thanks! I guess flogging these turbos in winter is more preferrable lol.

      Bahahaha, bloody hell Greg. You've got bent and broken things, but instead, you're replacing perfectly good items. This story keeps getting more gregged!   Also, I'd 100% replace that reo if I were in your shoes, unless you panel beater is REALLY good. Even if you put another GTT one on there. Just because you've done so much nice body work lately, I'd say repair the body work fully  If it were more drift car spec, I'd be all "Hit it with a hammer and send it!"
