.. . .when you see another skyline on the road and get excited and start flashing your high beams and hoping to get a thumbs up, and your mates in the back seats are thinking what the f**k

. . .. also when there is a yellow sticker on your bottom right hand windscreen

Haha Tangles thats a good one.

- you've just spent all your savings on mods, and you still want more

(though that is true for any enthusiast)

also

- you see hotplates in the distance and can tell anyone the year and model of skyline :(

Speaking of Stagea's i saw this station wagon the other day and thought to myself "thats a pretty nice looking volvo"!!!! then i realised it was a stag.

First time i've ever mistaken one, made me lol a little.

...when the kids at the local school cheer everytime you drive past.

...when a 6yo comes up and asks if you've got NOS when you're washing your car.

...when your mates get out of the GTR after their first ride and finally understand... and now want one.

    • This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone
    • Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.
    • I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.
    • I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?
    • I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
