Well I can tell you're outgoing, great to see.

We look forward to you getting your Skyline. Some of the cars on this forum are much better cared for then some others out there, and we can call peoples bluffs here to some extent, so you can buy with some confidence.

You can get your skyline to a racing standard without it being illegal on the road. I've tracked mine and attended Cams events while still being a road car so don't be affraid to track it up.

As for the car, everyone recomends a Manual and Turbo, and if you have the money a GTR.

R32 is the classic, light weight anglur form.

R33 the car with curves, has probably the most long lasting looks, but pick on what you like

R34 The updated classic look

Depending in your budget R34 GTT will have few problems, or if you like track cars, a well looked after R32/33 GTR.

    • Based off what you’ve said here, I think I’ve figured out a good bit of what I’ve done wrong -  So on the line going from the PCV valve to carbon canister, there’s a T joint that is pretty much right next to that lower port - I hadn’t noticed that the hose in the diagram was curved to attach onto the carb, so I was putting that line for the lower port onto the PCV line / carbon canister line instead. I’m going to have a flick through the manual again tomorrow and should hopefully find a diagram that’ll show me where that T joint should be connected to. Timing also 100% needs to be sorted out as well, should be able to tackle that tomorrow as well. Definitely feel like I should be on the right track now though. 
    • The screw is for idle (pilot circuit) mixture adjustment. Else, I'm confused ~ the diagram shows 2 carby ports, and the intake manifold port, but you're suggesting the "2nd port on the back of the carb that isn’t mentioned in the diagrams" ...yet, both carby ports are shown...que?... ...in any event, that port should be connected, but if not (like it is now), it's unlikely to cause a backfire out the carby (it would introduce false air and give you a fast/lean idle) ...sounds more like timing issues/spark plug wire routing responsible for the backfiring.    
    • That's fair, I can see both points. I get enthusiastic when I see the FS section has a new post and want to see what interesting thing someone is selling. Then I get deflated it's a bump of a 10 year old post. Ha ha
    • Couple of litres of moonshine from his southern cousins would do it...
