Recommended Posts

Hi All,

Put down a deposit on my first Skyline a few days ago and am picking it up this Friday.

Don't know jack about them in comparison to you lot, very keen to learn and can't wait to get out to some track days and cruises.

As an introduction, My name is Andrew, People call me Fez.

I live in the Eastern Suburbs, I play in shit bands and work in IT. That's about it.

Looking forward to meeting some of you.

98' R34 GT-t, Lightning Yellow, 149,000 K's.

Picked it up for 14 grand, hasn't had a hard life at all. Only mods are a turbo timer and a HUD on the windscreen. Everything else is original.

And it goes like a stabbed rat. But I haven't been able to get my foot down without breaking traction, As soon as I bought the damn thing it has been raining non stop. Will post pics tonight.

Welcome to the forums Andrew. Maybe you would like to come for a cruise with the rest of us this Sunday (SAU NSW official Megalong Valley cruise) and meet up with some other enthusiasts!

Looks good. I'll see if I can get a leave pass for the day.

Definitely keen to give the car a good run.

Don't give any newly purchased skylines a "good run" till you have given it a full service or atleast have undeniable proof that a proper service has been undertaken.

Don't know you,your habits or where you are getting your car from. just giving advice in case you don't know.

Good luck,don't forget to post pics and specs if any :)

don't want to burst your bubble (just want you to have all the facts), but they have to be put back to stock when put through compliance, so it may have had mods on it when it came into the country. it may not have, but it may have.

this sort of goes with what i said before. most people base the condition of their new car based only off the life it has had in australia for the past couple of years and not how it spent the majority of it's life back in japan. this is one of the reasons i never really trust the kms on the clock of imports. there is a very good chance it's had a lower reading odometer put in.

other than that, welcome to the forum

Didn't make the cruise on Sunday, Ran out of money. But here is the only photo I have of my car.

Going to give it a service and a good going-over this weekend. Haven't been giving it a hard time but it runs really well and I'm extremely happy with it.
