Was driving my R35 in Gold Coast, QLD last night. R34 pulls up and I could tell immediately he wanted me to give it a little.

My girlfriend was in the car, so I couldn't. If she wasn't, I would have only punched it to the speed limit then stopped, don't worry guys.

To my surprise, the R34 simply tails behind. Like he was stalking me. I just assumed he wanted a good look to the new model.

I was wrong. He eventually gave up waiting for me to give it some, so he took off without me.

HOLY SHIT. It was spraying rubber. He literally had a few little chucks of rubber fly from his tires on to my windscreen. His R34 would have absolutely demolished me if I had ever given it some.

He had a shaved head, the R34 was loud, smokey, little bit scary, no rear spoiler, some sort of roll cage, white and I found a new respect for the older generation R34.

Thank you, R34 driver.

Nice to see that you take your own advice after the lectures you deliver Richard :yes:

Hi Terry, I'm not sure what you mean by lectures I have given?

To the others, no, I won't think I am safe.

this thing spat rubber. Was that insane. Do you think it was built as a drag car or something? No spoiler and all.

Rule #5 from the CEO of vroomvroomvroom.com says "Be entrepreneurial within your own idea" and not digress too much > You stayed within your own realm of an R35 and did not get tempted to take on a hawt R34 GT-R hehe...

Old thread but was this at the back of Carrara, EVERYTHING about this says it was me....

I was driving back to Brisbane from Surfers. Looking at google maps, it looks like I need to pass through Carrara to get there. So yes, it most likely was you. Was that a roll cage? No spoiler?

      So you're now accepting offers of 10% more than the cost of the turbo kit fitted?

      Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far

      The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
