Got To Love Your Skyline

[NISZILA]

Had a minor problem that I fixed today that meant my line was out of action for a week. This meant driving a little civic around in the mean time.

Anyone else agree that in this situation, as soon as you sit back in your line, you get a little grin on your face. As you start the engine, the grin gets a little bigger. Then, as you come onto the highway, it turns into a smile from ear to ear. Its like you first time (driving a skyline that is) all over again. Then you glance down a go 'oh crap, i'm doing 130' ... oops.

Gotta love skylines

Bet you can't wait to get your line back. This whole week I've been staring at mine in the car port, wishing I could take it for a drive. So glad its back to its old self again

Make sure you post some pics when you get your car done

totaly agree...

juz came back from hoildays from surfers (i live in sydney)... we took my girlfriends civc... i missed my car soooo much when i was there... the first time i got back in my line after a week it felt so good... it was like stepping out of a car into an alient ufo... lol...

p.s. my car is in a horrible shape rite now coz i hit a farmers wire fence during xmas and da whole car is scratched... it drives fine and nothing is broken (bonet a bit dented) but it looks like like shyt but i still couldn't stop smilling when i drve it...

ive been driving my mums volvo around for the time being

i still get a grin wen i sit in it when its in the garage. makes me feel better hahaha

Yessss, my car's been off the road for so long, awaiting dump pipe to be fixed, then an epa test and now a cracked windshield..

I've been driving my valiant 8 and it's just so flopping slow, and when u turn corners ur ass slides off the seat. Also been driving my sisters corolla, the thing is actually pretty funny/fun, i just got it to chirp into 3rd lol, gotta love crappy fwd traction.

Took the line for a spin last night and was like... wtf its this fast? soo good can't wait till tomorow

Mine has been off road for 12 months im almost dead

[dane spec33]

mines been away for 6 weeks now over the holidays (which i really wanted it for )

Other than that i have a 89 camry for a- b duties, for work i drive gas\ petrol Rodeo 4wd(the worst car i have ever driven on \ off road, there are some cars that just arent made for gas conversions and this is a car that i would happily, if i didn't get into trouble for it , drive it into holden dealer and crash it through a display window hopefully taking out some other holdens in the process) Phew! end rant

I miss my skyline soooo much. The only thing that gives me hope is that when i do finally get it back, it will be like driving it for the first time again.

yeh mines been sitting in the garage.. it looks so sad without a body kit though so I dont tend to go and take a look at her. lol it just makes me feel worse

And there will be lots of pics from start to finish

im still suprised at the emotional connection we seem to have with our skylines lol.. alot of mates in NSW have their cars off the road for one reason or another and all miss them so much

[Mushroom]

yes mine has been off the road for 14 months and i just can't wait when i can sit in her and turn the key and listen to the engine crackle into life

[**JaR**]

pfffft

in the year and a half ive had my car im lucky to have had it on the road for half that lol

but yeah, gotta admit, everytime ive gone to pick it up im like...

[lingeringsoul]

I go emo when my car is off the street............but then I have this shit eating grin every time I take it out.

[NISZILA]

Wow!!!

My girlfriend is always saying to me "you're too obsessed with your car",

but I guess we're all in that same boat by the sounds

[hanyou]

hahaha

You won't believe how fimiliar that sounds. lol

[No Crust Racing]

Sounds very familiar! Though been single for a couple months so not an issue of late =D

"If it's got tits or wheels it's trouble"

No luck with My R last night, Corolla FTW again today - will change some parts tonight and if there's no success it goes in to autoelec tomorrow.

[ignuz]

I'll let you know how that goes in 5 or so more months..

[Black_Widow34]
