Skyline_Dreamer

Don't know of any. "Great Car Rentals" in Swan St, Ricmond would be the closest thing but I haven't seen any RX8's there. They hire Lambo Diablo's, Ferrari 355's, TVR's, Porsches, BMW's & Mercedes.

Hi guys, I am (hopefully) close to buying a Skyline, but the body kit needs repairs & the paint needs some attention. There's a few chips here & there. Does anyone know anyone who can repair fibrglass bodykits in Melbourne? Someone who does a good job @ a reasonable price.

Yeah, I have seen the XR8 on Toorak Rd. It's purple with tinted windows. He's always pulling people over.

Bass Junky, where are the Tuesday night meetings held? Would be good to catch up with some of you guys, especially any melb guys with R34's!!!

Thanks guys for the really helpful info! I saw an R34 for sale at a good price with a tiptroic auto. I am not a huge fan of auto's as they steal the fun of the whole driving experience from you & the gear braking sensation (yes I have owned both auto & manual normalyy aspirated cars). I have never driven a tiptronic gearbox - are they any match to a manual in respect to driver involvement?

Hi Guys, I am very keen to buy an R34 Skyline (no, not A GTR as I can't afford one). Is there a page on this forum/site with exact specs for all models of R34,ie manual, auto & the features? I guess what I am looking for is a brochure like you would pick up in a dealership. Aslo, any feedback on what you R34 owners (or ex-owners) think of the 34. Did Nissan only make a GT-T & GTR in this model? What would you expect to pay for one & more importantly what should you look out for when buying a second hand grey import. ie wear & tear, etc for the number of kms. Is there any tell-tale signs of a windback by looking at the car? One more qn... What does a 100,000 kms service cost (incl timing chain/belt)? Any other info all greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance guys.
