Hi Everyone

Hi skylines Australia,

I am a newbie to the forum but I have been reading for a while. I mainly come here to pick up some tips and to further my knowledge of Skylines.

I have been a mechanic for 20 years. I started working with Holdens in the early vk,vl,vn days. Then I worked for a small business where we worked on all types of cars including a few race and rally cars and doing some strange conversions (Turbo Supra engine into an old Mk2 Jag).For the last 6 years I have been doing inspections on used cars.

The main reason for my sign up is my nephew has a passion for skylines and he is onto his second R33, and lucky me I get to do the repairs when he wants upgrades or runs into problems. After driving this car, I can see why he loves it. I recently picked up an aquaintence in it, this guy is a big 4x4er, and his first comment was ".......bloody rice burning crap". After the first corner when I gave it a bit of stick, I glanced sideways at him sinking back into the chair and when the back end decided to come back I nailed it. After a few profanities from him he said "Far out I didn't realise how quick these things are." Next time I saw him which was a couple of months later he was still talking about it!

At the moment I am after a few parts so I will post in the appropriate section, if anyone has any questions I will try my best to help, if needed.

Thanks

Tank
