d*ckheads. They got what they deserve.

and youve never had a spirited drive down the highway or just give it a bit.....

I know that rd very very well and its 3 lanes wide down hill and a massive tunnel. Wouldnt have been racing otherwise there speeds would have been much higher...just 5 skylines having fun in a tunnel.

Regardless of their motive it wasnt the smartest thing to do putting it on utube.

I bet no. 6 is shitting blue lights knowing they are looking for him. :whistling:

They had fun and they got caught end of the story. We all know that full acceleraion in one gear in a skyline adds 50km/hr quick as so hence why i said they were having fun, def not encouraging what they did, just being realistic.

And col that hill is extremely steep my old 79 corolla could easily go from 90-110 if you didnt keep your foot on the brake the whole way down. So 140 would be achieved with about 2% throttle in a skyline on that hill. If they were really into it then you could add another 100km/hr to there speed easily.

Gonna close this guys - Sorry.

There are some greater issues going on with SA in relation to this. Don't need anymore discussion on this at the moment as there has been a big shitstorm over it for 4 weeks now. Even lead to the club cancelling some events i believe :(

    • I used the radium thing, makes the whole parallel assembly a lot more compact compared to any other way of doing it 
    • Racetronix also sells those ethanol content sensor bypass blocks. Adapter, Flex-Fuel E85 Sensor High-Flow Bypass, In-line No Sensor (ADF-FLEX-NS): Adapters - Flex Fuel | Racetronix Ethanol content sensor are originally designed to be on the feed line. These bypass blocks are meant to be ran in the feed line and not return. The continental ethanol content sensors have a 3/8" ID and not 5/16". This is why they are ran on the return line directly in conjunction with a low threshold sampling value VS in the feed with one of these blocks.    Haha we think alike, I used both original feed/return for 8AN feed, and one of the Hicas lines as a 6AN return. I also capped off and left the other Hicas line as a spare. 
    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
