I can watch this video all day . However, if you want to see a real R34 (plus other Skylines), come to Laguna Seca Saturday 12/9. If you can't be there Saturday, this Skyline group will be doing an impromptu meetup the Friday before at the Coast Guard Pier 8pm (Monterrey).

Sorry for the crosspost... Sat 12/9 is also Norcal 86Cup seasonal finale. We will be joined by some of the Socal 86Cup drivers.

That's plenty of cars and drivers from 2 genres

Anyone know a good VPN for Android? Had one but its super laggy and full of ads now. Some ads ok if free, but need something that works

What is everyone's opinion on Weathertech floor mats? It wouldn't be for an 86, so I don't need to worry about heel-toe shifting or anything like that. Are the laser fit mats really much better than a solid trim it yourself universal mat?

I have the laser cut mats in my SUV. They are really much better than the solid trim yourself ones as far as my experience goes. I spend more time vacuuming my seats than the floor of the car. lol

Even without worrying about heel-toe, regular all weather mats can have a lip that sits under your foot just on the gas pedal. Laser cut is definitely worth it.

I got mine on Jet.com for fairly cheap after their intro promo

I noticed after today's drive that when I drive at slower speeds over some types of pavement irregularities, like little chunks missing in the road, I hear a clunking/creaking sound coming from the front left.

Try tightening down the diagnal strut bars. Even if it seems hand tight they get loose slightly over time and will develop from creak to clunk

Check your spring collars? Might have loosened up and is letting the springs rotate/move around.
