  1. Maybe j-spec put it up? but i bought it from Geoff and prestige. here: http://www.prestigemotorsport.com.au/au/st...sp?StockID=2784 all in all good service too, but I had to wait 4 months to finally have it here, bloody shipping . Surprisingly it has a carbon fibre topped bonnet which wasn't even listed in the mods to the car. I guess you can say I got lucky with this one.
  2. Put me down.. but I wont have my car till next week . Under 250$ sounds good to me.

    New Skyline

    Has arrived! A bit of a monster but she seems to be running fine and is in a lot better condition than I had expected (the interior seems to be almost flawless ). Really happy about it and looking forward to joining the elite . The engine idled very smoothly. The car: http://www.users.on.net/~wabbit/Saru/IMG_19255.JPG http://www.users.on.net/~wabbit/Saru/IMG_19260.JPG The specs: 1989 Nissan Skyline R32 Gts-t 4-door sedan with 2.6 litre RB26DETT engine upgrade 5 speed 156,000 kms (RB26DETT engine has only done 40,000 kms since the conversion) Gunmetal grey RB26DETT engine upgrade (engine work was professionally done by tuning workshop "Testarossa" TRUST front mount intercooler NISMO 2-way LSD SBC boost controller KOYO triple core radiator R32 GTR brake calipers Braided brake hoses C-Ring height adjustable suspension OS Giken twin plate clutch NISMO engine and transmission mounts R32 GTR driver's seat Twin airpods Aftermarket exhaust Strut tower brace All power options and airconditioning Central locking R32 GTR wheels Some more pictures here: http://www.users.on.net/~ajh/My%20Car/ The only damage that was obvious was a little push on the front right (when facing it) making some of the panels slightly off. Some chips of paint missing and the panels above the rear door going down to the boot are rough, I think it's just old paint and will need to be touched up. Waiting for RWC though . Anything I should be careful about? I intend on getting a full service while it's at the mechanic. Should I ask for new sparkplugs and a compression test?
  4. Was so tempted to come along to this, but my skyline hasn't arrived yet . Next time.
  5. yeah show us the photos you sent
  6. Only the STI spec-c has the electronic torque distribution though right? Anyway the GT-Rs AWD system is different in the R32,33 and 34. You certainly can't specify how much to the front and rear but you can turn off the front. I think that this is mostly a reflection of the age of the GT-R. If you search you'll find quite a few topics on disengaging AWD on each model.

    Towbar?

    Not really sure to put, feel free to move it . I have a 4 door gts-t arriving shortly from Japan and I was wondering if there are any towing options? I assumed not but yesterday I spotted an S14 towing a trailer. I did some quick websearches but couldn't find anything, any options?
  8. I hope you're right predator . I've got a 4 door GTS-t with an RB26dett in it (along with a long list of other mods). Reading all this has more even more paranoid, you bastards! On the topic, is it worth sending imported cars straight to a workshop to get a thorough looking over?
  9. Damn it so true. I get so bored i even watch the V8s sometimes , i'd get pay tv in a flash if it had some real races .
  10. Hopped in an old (this is good cause then you don't have people cryign as you ride their clutch to hell ) manual and drove around a carpark for 2 hours. That was all I needed to learn how to use manual (assuming you already have a knowledge of driving by passing your test). Be aware though that each car is slightly different to drive, different revs and pressure depending on how the car is setup, and skylines certainly aren't the easiest to drive , let alone learning on a triple plate hehe.. you poor bugger .
  11. wow congrats.. i'm waiting on my 'line atm . Good to hear Geoff has delivered for you, I hope my fortunes are the same .
  12. For my R32 GTS-T 4 door (with RB26dett) to arrive from Japan .
