its really all to ur own taste i mean some people will say get big ass chrome wheels, others will say wtf go get ****ed get normal human wheels, its just what u want to do, if u dont wanna be pulled over dont do anything stupid and u'll be right,

i dont know much about body mods, but i sugest you listen to a few different views as there always is...some people like to talk out of their ass and just spin shit just to sound like they know a lot, whereas some people actually know stuff!...do your reseach and save the heartache of doing things straight away.

police tend to pick on skylines that are noticably moded, and with P's, you're probably asking for trouble:(...but as dox said, it is your choice, and dont drive in a way that increases atraction

a mod that i would insist on(not loks either sorry)would be a 3" exhaust from the turbo...a cat back is good, but the bigger dump pipe does wonders for a skyline:D

First buy yourself a dump pipe with seperate pipe for wastegate and exhaust.

Dande enhaust will do you a 3inch from the dump pipe back with high flow cat for around $1200 for mild steel or $1600 for stainless steel. While doing that get the dump pipe fitted at the same time.

Thats just 1 mod, but theres sooooo many more u could do the list is endless!!

yeah i know, but i want to put a gtr bodykit on it coz ive seen them around. i just dont want to go too out of my way to be noticeable for the cops

hahahahahha sorry. i suggest if you are on your p plates you leave the mods for a while. The car is still fun stock, if you do get an exhaust dont get one wich is too loud as your trying to be as inconspicuous(???) as you can for 1 more year.

inasnt seperate pipe for wastegate and exhaust. this has to do with swirling of gases or something???, im going to purchase one of these. I am assuming it would be good to get one made up at an exhaust place. I know you got urs sent. which would be better? and what was the cost again?

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
