Well I think it's time for a new topic since most of the topics in the Vic section are getting boring..

So, just wondering - What are your "rules" when you have passengers in your car?

Mine are:

1. No smoking in the car - ever

2. No eating or drinking unless I say it's ok

3. No farting in the car (except for me ;) lol)

4. If [ex]girlfriend is with me, she rides in the front - no exception. Otherwise, shotgun rules apply

5. Dont play with the electric windows

6. Dont touch the stereo, if you dont like my music you can walk thefinger.gif

7. No complaining I'm going too fast

There's a few others but that's all I can think of for now :rofl:

THANK GOD no one is going to have to put up with that

Well for another 19 days at least

:D

1. no smoking

2. no changing the climate control settings / music without asking (except girlfriend)

3. feet on ground at all times (not on seat and especially NOT ON DASH)

4. no sex

5. never touch my horn... ever

eating and drinking (including alchol) are allowed, drive-through is encouraged.

that is all.

Waz.

7. No complaining I'm going too fast

I'm the opposite with that one.....if I have a passenger that thinks I'm going too fast, then I will slow down, simply because I'm a shocking passenger.... i hate being a passenger in other peoples cars, i much prefer to be in control.

The only other rules that really apply are that you shut up if i say "shut up".

(anyone who has ever had kids in their car will understand!)

1 - no smoking

2 - no obscenities to passers by ESPECIALLY if we're coming up to a red light! my car will cop a bottle, not u...

3 - obviously no stereo control unless i advise so

4 - definately no touching of climate control.

5 - farting is only allowed if i have had pre-warning and can prepare with all windows down.

6 - dirty shoes = hold em or clean em... or ur walkin

7 - drinking is acceptable, but not between gear changes.

8 - shotgun rules always apply.

that is it i believe

lol, you blokes are exactly the same as me, just as much of a fanatic

1. No eating or drinking ever - even i don't do it

2. No one from the beach gets in. If I drive anyone to the beach, they either don't swim, and no walking in sand, or they walk home.

3. already mentioned - no pressing buttons of any sort (radio, windows are locked, aircon)

4. defintely no touching driving controls - you cause an accident, you die

5. don't complain about the ride, otherwise, you can buy your own car and drive yourself. you can complain about my daily driver because it's a piece of shit

6. no dirty people - as in swetty people etc.

7. no smoking in car EVER. If people wanna smoke, you can sit outside for 10 minutes first to let the smoke go away.

8. sex is allowed, as long as it involves me and another girl. no one else

9. don't complain about my driving unless you can do better, and have constructive feedback e.g. the other day, a lancer driver goes, why are you shifting so roughly. my response - because my clutch is a twin plate, and not a featherweight lnacer pinner clutch that you can almost launch it and it'd still be smooth

10. lol, and anything else i've missed is the rule as well.

i know i'm a bit of a fanatic...but what can i say. I love my car

yeah pretty much same as everyone else but heres some just to make me special.

1. passengers that are sitting or goin to sit in the back must enter and exit from the passengers side, unless theyre a chick.

2. im driving the car so i boost anytime i want to, not anytime you want.

3. absolutely no yelling obsenities to other people/drivers unless u know them.

4. dont pick ur nose in the car, if u do keep ur finger up there untill we get to where we're going.

5. whatever money you drop in my car and cant find its mine!!

6. dont put ur knees soo close to the gearstick, i dont like touching another mans knees at every gearchange unless we agree on a price beforehand...LOLz. this rule is waved for the ladies though.

7. i fart when i want to and if theres a problem the passenger powerwindow lock button has the final say.

and finally

8. shotgun rules apply but if you make a big deal about it then u have to wear a wacky 1956 U.S navy hat that i bought from spain at a flee market and keep in my car at my discression.

    • Really? That's piss weak. I didn't know they hobbled the shitboxen that badly. OK. So probs need to buy a flywheel too. But that's not too bad.
    • Hi all. I already posted some newbie-ish questions here and there but this will be my first "big" post. Last summer I went and fulfilled a kind of childhood wish, because I just thought I needed this experience in my life no matter what. The car I bought is a mildly modded 1995 BCNR33 Vspec. It was repainted to a metallic orange color all around and it had all windows reseated. Not so well done black respray in the trunk and a metallic black in the engine bay. From outside it looks very nice except for a minor paint error on the roof and the rear spats needing new adhesive tape. The inside is pretty clean and no broken plastics, missing or faded buttons. Even the adjustable mirrors and trunk antenna work like a charm. Despite a moderately long list of issues I don't (yet) regret buying this car. Most mechanical problems are just due to age, like worn rubbers here and there. The underside sadly has lots of corrosion, especially to the back. It looks like it either has been driven in the winter for a while or it lived near the saltwater in Japan, the rust is nothing terrible but it'll require to be looked after. Mostly panel gaps and all the mounted components underneath are a bit crusty, but I don't think anywhere has progressed so badly that there's going to be holes. Front right jacking rail is crushed and needs some care so it doesn't develop into a rust crater at some point. Worst part is definitely the strut towers. I thought they looked fine but after taking off the strut bar I noticed that it actually started bulging up on the passenger side. Probably would have passed on the car or negotiated down by some thousand Euros more if I had noticed this before buying, but here we are. Trunk area also has signs that there was a water leak to the interior once but nothing too crazy, I guess lots of Skylines had this at some point. As for the list of (known) issues, I'll try to make this compact. I hope the coloring is self explanatory. Mechanical: -Various busted or soon-to-be busted rubber bushings and ball joints. Will replace ball joints with OEM or better and bushings with polyurethane where possible. -Shaking steering wheel at above 80kph -downshift from 5th to 4th is a bit crunchy unless I rev-match, might just try to renew the shifter assembly, but it's not a priority issue -tailshaft centre bearing could use a replacement, is it worth going 1-piece tailshaft as it doesn't look too fresh all around? Chassis: -underbody corrosion on many spots and in hollow spaces, needs to be treated -corrosion on many bolts, hoses, lines, suspension components, subframes, will be treated when replacing of the bushings is needed as time goes on -strut tower top panels and some of the surrounding panels are rusty, so needs fixing. Will look into doing this with a buddy in the winter, otherwise bite the bullet and pay a professional -driver side door is misaligned to the body and needs to go a slight bit more inwards -both door windows are misaligned and have an airgap where the window meets the door at the B pillar -The Aerocatch latches for the bonnet have locks but no keys, need new keys. -driver side door window is kind of gritty and could use a polish -damaged jacking rails and front frame rails, from people lifting the car the wrong way, might have this fixed by a bodyshop Electrical: -Nismo tachometer is just bouncing and displaying nonsense, supposedly worked fine when the stock ECU was still in the car -An old Greddy boost controller sits on the dash which will be removed as it servers no purpose anymore. -a led segment rpm gauge is on the steering column, will probably also be (re-)moved once the Nismo tacho is working correctly -there was an attempt to make the sound system better by the previous owner but it was just inducing noise all the time, ripped out the amp and filters in the back, no music for now -trunk antenna goes up as long as the radio is on regardless of the mode, I want it to only rise if I choose Radio specifically or per switch -3rd brake light is a bit dimmer than the taillights but everything was converted to LEDs so mabye now it just seems dimmer? -reverse light flickers, have to test if that behavior changes when I fiddle with the gear stick. Hope I can get around changing the switch. -Left side taillight, blinker section has minor water intake and is humid after washing. Other side has a hole in it, probably for that exact reason. I'll probably reseal them entirely and plug the holes. Engine: -minor coolant drips on one or the other hose -rear turbo leaks oil onto the exhaust making the car essentially undriveable due to fire hazard -Oil filter relocation kit has an oil drip at the Dash lines, will probably make a new connection there and tighten real good and pray -throttle body assembly is slightly stuck for the first throttle pedal input after sitting for a while I'm always open to suggestions and advice from more experienced people, I'm sure half of this list is easily dealt with and just requires some time and effort to sort out properly. Once I have some proper pictures of the car I will post some in this thread, I just have to remember to take some more once I get the chance to. Will post updates when I have news on anything, I want to try to keep this thread as kind of a logbook as well. Ultimately my goal for this car is to just enjoy it. An engine rebuild is probably going to happen sometime as well, because it is old after all. It will never be fully new again, I am just not that rich. But I want it to look good, work well and not rot away while I drive it. I'm probably gonna spend a lot of money on this journey, hopefully not an unreasonable amount.
    • Hi all. So one of my major issues at the moment is my rear turbo leaking oil on the exhaust (and the general area). I presumed it was the rock hard super old drain hose, which it was not. So now I am in the midst of removing the rear turbo to get access to the banjo bolt that goes into the turbo oil feed. As one of the previous owners accidentally? tore off the OEM oil feed hardline that reaches behind the turbo, they ran braided lines directly to the turbo, presumably PTFE. Now, regardless if the line has rubber or teflon inside, is it just generally a bad idea to do this? I imagine these lines get quite hot being between the engine, turbo core and exhaust manifold. I suppose it's not too far fetched to think the line may even have melted. I'd love to hear your opinions on this as as the replacement OEM hardline piece is 130 per unit. And cutting open the currently mounted line to see inside will mean I just have to get a replacement either way. So far I am hoping maybe the bolt just loosened or (god forbid) they forgot one of the crush washers.
    • If it's a factory 20de manual probably has the 6 bolt flywheel in which case the det clutches won't work as they're 9 bolt.
    • All RB push clutches are interchangeable. AFAIK, the 4cyl ones are not. Different flywheels. The RB small box is not identical to the 4cyl boxes. Just very similar.
