Good Luck mate. Hope the car is still is good condition and all is well with the boost if they played with it. Makes me think twice about parking my car now. But hey everyone wants the experience of driving a fast car dont they. Sure it won't take too long to restore your cars previous glory. Happy driving.

If it is the same problem as the Z32 i've got then it could most likely be the hicas system acting on its own due to something being aligned incorrectly as my steering is slightly to the left when i travel along highways the hicas thinks i'm constantly turning and it recognises this and turns itself off. Therefore basically /hopefully all u need to do is fix whatever is causing this.

Not knowing too much about the skyline i'm coming from a biased view, however you should choose to do what is practical for you! Yes being a zed owner i can say that it is expensive for parts mostly because if u can't get them second hand they need to be imported from jap. (pain in the butt). Having owned my tt zed for 2 years now, regular maintenance aside, i've only spent about $1500 on repairs, mainly a new heater core. Regarding issues on repairs the timing belt to get repaired doesn't need the engine out and the little bypass hoses are a pain to fix. Therefore if you choose the z be prepared to put a little aside for hidden problems. Thats my view anyway, either would be a good car but think what u need it for. Happy driving.
