Man the Supra is such a nice car - anyone whos driven it will agree, but yeah its got nothing on the GTR :D

my current tally is 1 broken, 1 not broken. can add one sold to that. and one stolen. nasty. but un-like some who shall not be named, mine don't stay broken for long... :ermm:

5 weeks down on my Skyline and the only "off roading" it has done was through some road works making it nice and dirty :rofl:

My Skyline was off the road from a week in between I paid the deposit and paid for the rest of the car, needed complaince, blue slip, rego ect...

But none of these count now do they :ermm:

R32 Broken engine, Broken turbo, Broken Clutch, failed fuel pump, failed center bearing, broken coolant line to turbo

R33 Broken suspension, Broken Clutch, Broken Engine

Wooo its been a good year for me lol

Mines got a blown turbo, Faulty turbo after not even 3 months being in the car... compressor seal shit itself ramming wheel into housing...

Im hoping that the highflower of the turbo gets back to me quickly as its just sitting in the driveway collecting dust...

Stagea FTW!!!!111!!!!11ty!!!

Mine's been off the road for a few days here and there because I HAVEN'T DRIVEN IT ANYWHERE!!!

So far so good, the only thing that's happened is when I blew the turbo not long after I bought it, which is closing in on 2yrs ago now.

Hoping to have some things done to it this week, so it'll likely be off the road and NOT at home for maybe a few days.

Lots of broken 'lines. I guess they're getting on in years, and this year has just been unlucky. I'm sure there are more of you out there :(

Another reason why someone should buy mine.... she's a very happy sort and gives me nothing but good times

I LOVE THIS CAR!

Mine's been perfect so far this year........damn i love my car, very reliable.

Having just said that, I'm sure something is going bang tomorrow.

    • 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?
