this isnt about skylines but it sticks to the topic..............out at the pub with workmates and the subject moved to cars.......

me: if i had a lot of money to waste on cars i'd get an old volvo and turn it into a sleeper.

workmate: you'd put a bed in the back of it??

and everyones favourate.............

chick: my boyfriend has a really fast car

me: what type is it?

chick: it's blue

Not a dumb quote but I took my 10 year old nephew to School in my black GTT as a treat (and I had the flamer kit turned on for a laugh). As his school mates asked him about it 1 kid asked what car it was and my nephew says..................................."The Batmobile!"

I nearly fell out of the car laughing :D

I've had the "mate,is that a Supra,like out of 2 Fast,2 Furious?"

Me,slightly sarcastically: "Nah,it's only an all-wheel drive Datsun..."

And "why do all you ricers insist on sticking your radiator right up the front for the world to see?"

Plus the usual:"Your gearbox is broken-it wheezes sometimes when you change gears..."

And:"Hey mate,your car is still running..."-Thanks for the concern,pal,but it's a turbo timer and I'm not as stupid as you look to walk away from a car that's still running if it wasn't a timer!

my dad when he first drove the cefiro... "I think there's a leak in the engine bay it keeps whistling"... sometimes I think a 56 year old shouldn't drive a modified ceffy... but he loves it and gives it the stick now.

there was also this incident involving my girlfriends then 13 year old lil brother... who is very cluey about skylines, and has attended many SAU events with me... I have yoda'd him in the facts of the skyline force.

*lil dude looking at an R33 skyline parked at a shopping center with a couple of mates, owner standing by the car with a couple of his mates*

lil dude: "nice car, what type is it?"

owner: "its a GTR"

lil dude: "no its not"

owner: "uh hello... I own this car I think I know what it is?"

lil dude: "well its got smaller guards, rims of the wrong width, tyre sizes that are all wrong, a steering wheel that's from a Series 1 GTSt, a fake 300R bodykit, and you're missing the gauges in the centre console, so if you paid how much a GTR costs for the car you got ripped off"

*owners and his mates shellshocked*

owner: "farken its a GTR man"

lil dude: "then you should have an RB26 engine and not an RB25 like I think you do, pop the bonnet and we'll see"

owner: "fark off d!ckhead, I don't have time for this"

lil dude n mates walk off laughing at the owner...

moral of the story... idiots don't just drive holdens n fords... they drive R33 GTSt's as well... or should I say GTR's according to them.

oh and a co-worker's mate brought his girlfriend over to the office a while back (mind you the office is quite clearly a Import Broker's office with all the import posters, map of japan etc all around).

girl *during conversation*: "I like cars"

co-worker: "oh good, what do you drive?"

girl: "I don't like these imported 4 bangers, I drive a VS commy"

girl *looking at me (i was wearing the sau shirt with Skyline written on it)*: "is your's the skyline out the front? skylines are too common"

me: *looking down at my shirt that says "skylines australia"* "ha ha... what gave that away?"

*guys in the office just keepin quiet laughing our arses off on the inside, so as not to be rude to our mate*

mate: "hey I'm thinking of importing a 300zx again"

girl: "hon, why do you want a cheap 4 banger?"

co-worker: "its a 6 cylinder and I think he wants a turbo version"

girl: "whatever they're all the same"

co-worker *to her bf*: "how about a pimpin VIP lexus or a Q45 that's more your style"

girl: "yuck"

co-worker: "but they're both V8's"

girl: "but its not an aussie V8"

co-worker: "they're more high tech engines than the aussie V8's"

girl: "I think they're still jap-crap"

co-worker: "so what about ferrari's and jag's? they're non aussie V8s too"

girl: "to be honest I don't like them either, what's wrong with that?"

co-worker: "nah that's good, it means that you have a cheaper taste in cars, which is easier to satisfy"

turns out during the rest of the conversation that she actually went n bought a Holden Nova (rebadged toyota corolla) because she thought it was a better than competing "jap-crap" models.

I feel sorry for his mate... he's owned imports before and has a passion for jap sports cars lol.

Narrow minded people hurt baby jesus.

LeeWah: Yeah, it hold's it's own

Muppet: You reckon you can beat my mates HSV GTS?

LeeWah: Dunno. May have to check one day :)

LeeWah: Good on ya. Both have a fair bit of go

Muppet: You into street drags?

LeeWah: Used to go but gave it up a long time ago and keep it to the track now.

no shit... wasn't the exact words uttered, but that was the gist of the conversation... they basically rocked up to see some other car go on the dyno, think a WRX or something and din expect much of your car, and were blown away by what it produced.

I'd sooner gargle razor blades than try and impress that woman to score a root.

Was she worth it funkymonkey, Or was your co-worker just desperate? :P

    • Turbo gods, some assistance and recommendations please I'm looking into a turbo kit for my 2.5 from MX5 Mania >>>>> https://mx5mania.com.au/products/copy-of-mx-5-nc-2-5-litre-engine-conversion-turbo-2005-2013 Power wise I would like about 200kw atw, and of course dose noises, apparently if you keep a stock 2.5 under around 200kwatw the engine and drivetrain will not hate life even when ragging on it a bit Max RPM on the 2.5 is around 6500rpm The turbo MX5 use is something around the disco potato size as  packaging room for the turbo is pretty limited, which will, I believe, give me my power goals I want and not have the turbo either under, or oversized, but the rear housing bit is confusing  It comes with either a 0.64 or 0.86 From my understanding, which so far is based off googling, so make of that what you will 0.64: spools faster = good Makes more EGT heat on boost = bad Less topend power than 0.86 = I'm only looking for 200 atw so that point may be mute????, I don't know, hence my questions  0.86: Spools a "little" slower = how much slower??? remembering 6500 is my max rpm Makes less EGT heat = good Makes a little more power up top = again, power goals is only around 200 Also, this is a street car, so there will not really be any long track sessions, in saying this I would want it so it was happy with at least 3 hot laps at Wakefield Park if the need arises  I already have a fancy pants triple pass radiator, and a oil cooler with thermostat will be getting installed as well Thanks for any information or recommendations you have 👍, and of course, the comments about me wasting money on drive in drive out modifications, or any other snide remarks about my manhood for owning a MX5 🤣    
    • Tape some wool onto the vent then take it for a drive I did this to my reverse cowl and was instantly unhappy, as anything over about 60kph would have the wool enter the engine bay, thus just adding underbonnet pressure and stooging my coolant stack, it did let alot of heat out when stationary though, which really didn't help once the car was moving, with the reverse cowl you could watch the coolant temps cheap up the faster you went on the hwy, I assume it would be alot worse doing track day speed With the vented bonnet (just after the radiator and about 1/3 up the bonnet) on my old R33 the wool on the leading edge sat at about a 45° angle as air poured out of it From looking where your vents are, and their size, I believe you should be fine at speed and air should be evacuated from the engine bay, I think it will be a night and day difference when stuck in traffic though for removing the trapped heat, and not sitting there cooking when parked up after driving around... #convection  Post wool tuft pics and data for science  This beastie is one nice and unique rig, enjoy
    • It is possible to do this stuff for "cheap". But you need to be able to get deals on all the bigger items, and it really helps if you're fully capable of doing your own work. As soon as you're paying retail for new parts, or buying "kits" because you can't fabricate necessary bits and pieces, and if you really need someone else to take the reins of doing the work because you don't have the space/time/skills/confidence to  rip deep into the car and put it back together in a working fashions.....then you pay. And these days, pay means a lot of money. You'd think things would get cheaper, but they don't. They just seem to keep getting more and more expensive.
    • It’s almost the price of an engine build, you won’t have anything to bolt onto it though 
    • Hopefully it's enough to help with the temps! I was also only shit stirring, regarding Murphy's Law basically. I've found, what ever spare parts I have, are the parts I don't break. Ever. Also have never had issues with oil/spinning bearings until I put oil pressure gauges on the car. 😛
