Thats what I like most about driving a sleeper. No one ever bothers to take me on.

But sometimes I see some smartass showing off, so after having a real good look around, slide up beside them at the next set of lights. I can maybe gain half a car length before they realise, and the look on some guys faces is absolutely priceless.

I had a young guy try to impress me one Saturday morning in D'nong. He was trying to make me look at his car so naturally I didnt. He was on my left when the lights turned green and he took off like a bat out of hell, drove 10 feet and nearly rear ended the car in front of him.D***head

Well I'm not one to run on the road, but on Sunday after spectating at a Porsche car club meet at Sandown, I encountered a couple of guys in a worked 911 Carrera (I'd been inspecting it during the day) following me close behind doing the tyre warming swerves and generally giving me the hurry up.

Anyway, ran with them on Princess Hwy and got 3 cars by 190. They stopped beside me again at the next set and were completely silent, wouldn't even give me a glance.

Porsche eater!!

Wtf? They like bragging "Guess what mom?! I overtook a skyline today!"

:)

Everyone wants to eat a skyline coz they are jealous. Skylines have a reputaion for being solid Hi Po cars. Its only natural that their little brains attempt to provoke us into pointless drags we're gonna win. These people would just like to know how much crappier their car is :uh-huh:

They think big grunt and 4WD are the tools to go fast? Wait 'till they see some skills and knowledge...

RESPECT to you man if you could win STI in a corner.What suspension set up and tires are you using?

You don't get it, do you??? It ain't my point! Do you realize that out of the 800 STi drivers (and possibly more with the new STis), only a handful who can REALLY handle? Same as those M3 drivers, Ferrari drivers, Porsche drivers and any other performance car owners of that caliber. Not to mention the HSV drivers. Sure their cars are fast, but that don't make them a fast driver without learning some skills.

Think about it: even if you have all the money in the world, you wouldn't risk your quarter-million car and your life tackling a corner so fast while you don't have any skills whatsoever, would you?

I RESPECT drivers with skills, dude... I got kicked by old men with their old performace cars. And that proved me that skills and knowledge of the car is more important than what you have in your car... But I hate wanna-bes thinking they are fast just because they are driving expensive performance cars. And I hardly race anyone unless he's a complete moron!

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      Been down in Tassie for 2 weeks (a cruise, not a race for once) but spent a little time on her when I got back. I worked out the injector settings in the PowerFC were not correct for nismo 555s, set those to 66% +10ms and added a little air at closed throttle, set the timing (approximately, because it has some weird non 15o cells around idle) and now she starts and idles properly. She purrs like a kitten (ignore the co2 alarm in the background, I did  ) 20250518_171052.mp4 Next step, off for run-in, tuning and alignment!

      Went to a drift practice day at a local circuit (held on the reserve parking area behind the grandstand) for the first time in about 15 years. Some kei cars were drifting as well, a not so surprising Suzuki Carry truck, and two 1st gen Daihatsu Copens that were converted to rear wheel drive(!) using Daihatsu Boon X4 transfer case, prop shaft and rear diff, obviously omitting the front driveshafts. They looked really fun to slide. I heard that they cost "about half" as much as a Nissan Silvia etc to run.  On the track 'Tech M' a local BMW tuning garage had a customer track day. Mainly recent models but there was one E36 which looked ancient among all the current models. It was cool watching the drifting and then turning around and seeing random people thrashing their M3/4s  central-circuit-drift-practice-2025-05-18-long-yt.mp4

      By Tekitsune · Posted

      I would like to keep it around 15k but if I need more to make it reliable and not have to worry about the car breaking I can go more. It's my project car so I'm just trying g to figure out what needs to be in it i know basic things like turbo cams injectors I'm just unsure of the size and the specifics so I'm spending alot of time on Google and its mostly rb25 and rb26 not alot on neo
