Well today I take the first step on my road to skyline performance. In about 30 mins I will be sitting on a train for about 2 hours on my way to collect the divine fine line. Am I keen, bet your sweet arse I am. over 20 years I have waited for this. I will see some of you on the spit cruise tomorrow. WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO :)

he means it too

voted new car day = best day ever

I still remember mine. Getting the car registered, from slacks creek to mc greggor department of transport in 5 mins before they closed for the day. And getting pulled over by a cop in the cbd, then ordered to leave or he would defect me. Was a memorable new car day for me.

I disagree... New car day is great dont get me wrong...

Its extra special is its your first skyline or turbo, like popping your cherry... :D

But id have to say you first dyno tune after modifying your car is better, you get to drive the car with heaps more power... :)

^^^^^That is me today^^^^^ Hence why im so happy... :D

Im sure shane will back me up, once he gets the GTR back on the road and tuned he will be hapier than the day he bought the car...

Hopefully that will be me soon, Its time for a new car and I have been looking at R32 Skylines for a number of years of now. If my personal loan gets approved I will take it for a test drive next week. Never driven a turbo car or a skyline but have always dreamed of it.

Mine was great, the 323 I had was dying very slowly, then the weekend before new car day it died, I was able to revive it by ejecting all the water in no3 but it never ran quite as well as it sickly did before, and to step into sheer luxury, compared to a 323, was just the best day ever.

When i picked mine up i was stoked.. I kinda missed my old car though.. My old silvia i had spent over 15,000 on it..

But i got in the skyline... paid for it in p.h.a.t cash and then drove away..

I think the first thing the hit me was

"ahhh yeah.....!!!! theres room in this badboy"

6'2 and squeezing into a silvia everyday kinda sucked.. especially since i had the sunroof option too.

oh.. and putting the foot down was good too.. but more to the point i like the rooooooom in the car ;)

lol the performance can come later... but hey... i own a skyline lah lah lah lah lah

Orright WTF am I missin here. Piscofreakin WHAT! is this some kinda secret skyline handshake deal or somethin.

Interesting day. Took the sons for a blast, then their mates, then their mates mothers and fathers. I think I shoulda got a 4 door.

Then proceeded out to qld raceway for the sprint day. Caught up with Zenon and watched him run some really smooth laps. Very impressive zenon.

Next stop was willowbank strip for the evening test and tune session, (spectating only) Watched a fearsome sub 9 second line. Man that thing just rox. I grew up on the sound of hot v8s and they are impressive but nothing can prepare you for the sound of a line at these specs. Its just audio armageddon. Would give my left one to see that other one that ran the 7.6 second pass recently.

All in all a great first day in the fine line. Looking forward to tomorrow. :happy:
