Hey everyone,

I live in Geraldton and got my V35 last year in Oct the 16th (wow what a day).

I want to find more people in Gero that have Skylines so i'm staring this tread.

I know there's plenty of you Skyline owners in Geraldton, i've seen heaps.

So post your pics of your Pride and Joy and some info about yourself

My V35

It's a "70TH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL EDITION PREMIUM MODEL WITH FULL LEATHER, 6 x AIRBAG OPTION AND FACTORY TV". I imported myself with the help of "Prestige Motorsport" in Perth. I got it at the prefect time with the Yen at 106 to one Aussi dollar and one month later it all die in the ass. So i was lucky. Got the everything converted (TV, Sat Nav and DVD) in Perth by Brian Wallis "Autotainment" 289 Great Eastern Highway, Burswood WA 6100 DVD / TV conversion etc. for the V35 in Perth 9470 4233. I payed $2,400, and i think that was a bargin :banana: . And compliance was done buy the boys at Autoworx.

I have only seen one other V35 in Greo a 4 door, it's looking a bit sad with the bumper falling off and door trim hanging down, pretty sure it's been in Gero for a few years now (seen it around well before i got mine). I've had a mate (R32 owner Mitch) say he seen one same as mine thinking it was me wave at it then relise it's not the same (different rims).

I get my car serviced at "CAR" Cam's Auto Repairs.

Well thats my story.

Used to live there, but I had a Torana [253 LX].

I remember the bloke from tyrepower had a skyline, but every time he drove it he would get a yellow sticker. So he has a SX now.

Yeah i seen him around, his SX looks really nice, and i remember his skyline (white one) i think it was a R33 maybe R32 with a nice kit. but it was a few years ago

    • I agree on doing some better than factory pistons, rods, and oil pump. For anyone using the vehicle on the road, I don't get why everyone wants big cams. The stock cam profile, with some more lift would be mint for road usage. Everyone going big cams and then wondering why it isn't as responsive in traffic, when they've shifted the torque curve upwards an additional 1000RPM. Make torque, at lower RPM. Sure it's not as cool as claiming "500KW" and revving it to 8,0000RPM, but that same torque 2,000RPM earlier... Then you don't need the extremely high end pistons and rods, and blah blah blah.
    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear!
