Funny police.

Today i was at a set of lights behind a falcon, lights changed, we moved off, then after a few hundred m the falcon changed into the left lane nearly clipping a camry.

The old bloke in the camry was pissed off (obviously), and as we were driving along i noticed it was an unmarked cop car!

I think he was so focused on the Skyline and seeing if i would hoon like an idiot on public roads with heaps of traffic (dude thats why i ride dirtbikes in the bush) he didnt see the camry.

Anyway no damage done except to his professional pride. Ha.

PS: maybe the bogan style R32 is hard for them to ignore.

I know you dont mean it but some people dont know any better.

Yeah, i could... to the next set of lights or cops waiting (cant outrun radio)

Or wait for them to come over to my house after they run my plate. Actually they would be waiting for me.

Been young once too man, i had sportbikes, im glad too be alive. Cars are a little safer, not much.

And the other side to this is if some dik risks MY life by being stupid on public roads, ill want to cut his fking fingers off.

Youd feel the same.

If you make a mistake, pull over, be respecful, its not as bad as you think if you do this.

Mik missed the F&F joke.. I agree with you. The amount of times i get people trying to go me in the GTR. I had the car for about 2 months and was almost taken our 3 times because people in 4wd think they can go around a roundabout at twice my speed to show their skill.... one of them almost resulted in my car going right through the middle of the roundabout (i thank my dad every day for making me do 3 defensive driving courses). And it's worse on the moto, i am only just off my L's and i have almost been hit about 5 times. Sometimes i wish i had a camera on my car so i could just report some of the dumb stuff i see.

Yeah its crazy sometimes, you see why i dont ride on the road anymore. But if you keep an eye out for danger about to happen, and minimize risk, youll be ok.

Evrey time i stacked a bike i was breaking my own safety rules, like "dont ride fast in long grass". I can remember thinking "fk it, sheel be right"

Oh yeah... Good dad.

It stings your knuckles. Ha Ha!

No i hit a drain and decided if i dont look at my arm i wont pass out. Broke it badly at the wrist, lucky no pins or plates.

Fun times, i was stupid enough to ride with a cast on after that, which landed me with a broken collarbone.

I can remember flying in the air looking at my arm as i put my hand out to guide my roll over and seeing the cast, then i thought "oh sht" and pulled my arm in for a hard landing on the shoulder.

A long time ago now, ive lived with it every day though (wrist is fked and collarbone is way out) its a good reminder to be smart and safe.

Ha ha, my god i must have been so stupid.

      Shoota's R33 GT-R RB30/26

      @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣

      I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia.

      Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.

      R33 fuel setup

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).

      As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
