Since australia day, well since i have gotten my skyline (about 2 months ago now) there have been so many idiots that just do stupid things like tailgate me, and just cut me off. There must be a big sticker on my car that says tailgate me and cut me off please i like it.

Other than that, how many accidents have happened recently, last nite (australia day night) well about 1am the morning after ;) coming home, this vs commodore comes past me over the wrong side of the road doing 100+kmph in a 60 zone, comes up to a red light, goes through it, slamming his brakes, t-bones two cars, one of which got spun around and hit another oncoming car. Now the passenger got out with a blood soaked head, and got to the side of the road asking for help, an ambo did come later, and the driver staggered out of the car, looked fine, and then ran off a short while later, then the cops rocked up getting statements off everyone, this sort of driving activity shits me to tears, i tear up the road and race people to a certain speed, never dangerously or in any dangerous areas, maybe princess hwy sometimes :( hehe

so where is all the media placing commodore drivers as wankers?

oh hang on wait, if this was a skyline or 200sx, or any import it would of been on the news.

any ****wit that drives like that deserves severe punishment doesnt matter if they drive a skyline (looks around the room) lol

Geez, most commodores are too slow to cause major accidents, come on! haha

Nah in all honesty, Most drivers I see on the roads that have no idea are old/ middle aged and female, boganish middle age men in Commodores.. 20-25 year olds in Commodores.

And 17-20 in Imports.

But the most dangerous out of all those, being the Import drivers, as they're usually boosting around blind corners etc. Whereas the Commodore drivers are usually tailgating and the middle aged women just have no idea.

my prevoius cars, were in order of owning, a 1986 holden camira (throws up) a 1987 vl calais turbo, and a 1978 holden hz gts monaro, so as you can imagine most of my cars have been, well, they stand out. but i see people doing stupid things no matter what cars they have, i am actually finding that european car drivers (audi, bmw and mercedes) to name a few actually have no idea how to drive whats so ever. As if they think they are to good to have to follow the laws and have any sort of decency.

but yo get your good and bad drivers in all cars, just some more than others, young p-platers in performance cars, whether its a v8, turbo or what ever think they are top shit. I used to drive a bit like an idiot, but had the brains to do it in the right sort of places, ie. totally visable, and totally empty road ahead.

Watch the road very carefully !!!!!!!!

also watch out for new cars with dints on them already ;)

They can't put shite in the media about commodores and falcons being dangerous and bad

I believe its all part of a governement plan to get rid of imports, they make it harder to import them, they bad mouth them in the news, they make us all out to be street racers. If they put bad stuff about australian made cars in the news, it'll lower the sales of the crappy holdens

mark

I delivered my son's R33 after his return from o/s. No matter where I drove, someone wanted to go faster, and they were all Excells, Corollas etc. I took note the Clubsports and XR6 turbo's had nothing to prove, just cruised on with a wave.

I know what grunt it's got, how it can stop and handle generally.

But those little shit boxes going 120 plus on the pizza cutter tyres scare me as much as the 3 tonne 4-wheel drivers doing 130.

And what's with that bright red light on the rear skirt of Hyundai's. Got to be illegal, like driving into high beam continuously.

Regards.

The biggest problems i always find is the P platers in vn commodores. It doesn't seem to matter if they only have a v6 thats only running on 5 cylinders and is blowing smoke out the exhaust, as far as they are concerned if you see an import, its race time.

But since i have been driving a skyline for the past two years, it has become "normal" for me to be cut off or challenged to a race at every second set of lights. i suppose its the price you pay for having a nice car.

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything 
    • Hmmm interesting. Mine is the exact same and clearly the right one.  The mystery of the engine oil being full after 3.5-4L continues 
    • Yes I as well would like to find out where I could get some of the seat material with the red or blue small squares in it
