i know this is goinna sound a bit mean, but if you gonna own a skyline, make sure you have the money to pay for insurance, im not saying that anyone deserves to have their skyline stolen, just the fact that it is your own fault for not having any insurance on the car. its an expensice that in the end, if anything ever happens, is worth it. It the same thing with an alarm, your silly if you dont have one, and just asking for trouble. when i first got my car and it had to be taken off the road not even 24 hours after getting the car, i was sooooooooo paranoid about her just sitting in the driveway with no alarm, so i ended up getting her towed down to the place where the alarm was getting installed. i was able to sleep properly after that, cause i swear i didnt until the alarm was in, every little noise woke me up!

I cant understand why anyone would leave a GTR out of their sight if they hav no insurance on it! Insure it is the first thing you do, i've got insurance on mine but i still chain it to the shed, put a wheel clamp on, club lock on also .... oh and its also in a locked and alarmed shed!!!! not to mention i got a dog too!!! HAHA!! i think mines safe!

with all the car thefts lately you can never be too safe tho!

i saw a couple of wankers susing out my car at marion the other day, when they noticed me walking back to the car with my mates they quickly took off. looked young and dumb so probably a couple of kids having a squiz.

    • This is a real nostalgia trip for me, I mean SK Bilsteins? I ran those lol Good times.  Good work Duncan, it's not an easy job in many respects. I'm sure the family appreciates it. 
    • It's not a dumb question. I was circling this idea myself. User error is always possible!
    • Nope. The seal is in the drive. A new cable would just fill up and continue to convey oil to the speedo head. To check if this is what is happening, take the cluster out, dismantle the speedo and have a look. You probably don't even have to dismantle it. If there is oil coming up the cable, the drive into the speedo will be grossly greasy. I had to manually (and delicately) clean the gunk out of my speedo.
    • Thanks for the quick response mate, and I agree Nismo 555s, Z32 and high flow 2871 in OP6 housing (run by PowerFC) would all be "period correct" and should be a simple, reliable and reasonably quick track car.
    • It is normal for a speedo to read 0-10% high (unfortunately), intended by manufacturers and ADRs (although not in this case) to ensure your speedo does not read low if your tyres are worn. Speaking of which, what size tyres do you have on the rear, and what does they tyre placard say you should have? you can use this https://tiresize.com/calculator/ to determine what % difference that is causing Personally, when I buy tyres for a car I buy a size that will bring the speedo back to being more accurate; it if it reads 5% high I buy tyres that are 5% larger diameter. If you had an electronic speed sender like R33 onwards, the other option is to add a speedo adjuster but that won't work in R32. Finally, you  might be able to find a different sized gear for the speedo sender but that will be limited to what already exists (and I don't know what sizes do)
