Dear jerk off(s)

who stole my front badge & snapped the keyhole one (on the boot) off thanx for making my nite! No longer is my Skyline one of the cleanest+tidiest examples around but rather damaged goods, violated & just not the same. If only I had the chance to walk out whilst u were doing the deed, idv had my way with u & not in a sexual way. Wat idv done to u, Australia definitly WOULD NOT be saying sorry...

PS After my cry any ideas where i can purchase sum replacement badges guys lol seriously :thumbsup:

Pretty sure the key badge cover & the lock barrel is one unit so, you'll have to swap the whole barrel over into the new one.

i gota car toys 1 for 20bucks the red looks the same as the day i got it.

ive only used the high pressure car wash hoses a few times on it though. usually do my car washing at home

bastards left a major scratch on my baby when they took mine, musta used a screwdriver or something.

when i was at nissan they qouted me 140 for a new 1 to which i was not too fond of, they said most of it was the shipping cost. but maybe they give different answers each day of the week with exchange rates ;)

my bros in japan at the moment so would anyone know where to get 1 near osaka?

o and i heard a few of the f*k wit lil 10yr olds at salisbury north skate park talking bout how they take badges from cars while i was sk8ing there. apparently your a big man if you've taken a bunch of em, i quickly let them know my disaproval for their bull sh*t and sent them home crying to mum

      Hey I get it. Definitely sounds exciting, but not for me, there is almost no V10 or 12 that I really like. I don't like big engines with high cylinder count. V8s would probably be where I draw the line of "which engine would you use". Specifically an LS7 is a favorite of mine, or the 5.2 Voodoo by Ford.

      But V12 Skyline. Like, I'm In!   Stay Tuned in the USA are jamming a V12 into a Foxbody at the moment... Just the sound of V10 or V12 is worth that adventure!

      To put it in perspective; there is just one tuner shop that sells a single turbo kit for the RB26, at least publicly in their shop. Maybe one or two others can offer you a setup if you inquire, but I am not sure. That turbo kit is 16k in parts alone (high quality ones, but still). By the time it's installed, tuned and legalized expect it to cost 25k+. And then you still didn't take into account for any special wishes. I can't imagine legalizing an LS swap for example to be any cheaper. And if you want to legally raise power output by more than 40% of the highest-powered OEM variant of any specific car you'd have to do stress testing on a race track for 2000km. Wildly out of perspective cost and effort wise, especially for just one vehicle. But if you got too much money, I guess you could do it.

      Yeah, I understand that TÜV is a bitch, but.... cost is not an issue when talking about putting a massive NA (or possibly large + turbo'd) V engine into a Skyline. We do it because it is fun. If mine was a project car and not a daily, I'd be finding some massive engine to put in it. Possibly one of the Toyota V12s that they make into monsters in New Zealand. Engineering is not cheap and easy here either (although definitely easier and cheaper than in Der Vaterland). But anything is possible, and 7L is better than ~2.5L, by about 200%.
