Hi all,

I am in a position to purchase a stock standard (as close to stock as possible) Skyline. Here are my must have's:

  • Must be stock (as close to stock as possible), with the exception of exhaust and mag wheels although I would prefer standard exhaust.
  • Must have less than 120k on the odometer and be able to prove it.
  • Must be manual.
  • Everything else must be stock standard and must have RWC. Whilst I would prefer one with rego I can fix that up.

I don't care too much what colour it is although I am not fond of the grey ones. I would prefer a car with no extra gauges in the cockpit, the standard ones should be fine. An after market cluster is fine but you must be able to prove the K's on it and before it was fitted.

I have the cash ready to go but am happy to wait for the right car. I will want to test drive first and do all the normal checks (REV's and Car History).

Please PM me with details and photo's. Please include photo's of the interior and engine bay.

I am happy for a discussion in this thread on any prospects.

Cheers,

Richard.

how is anyone going to be able to prove kilometers unless they bought the car brand new themselves in japan?

Sorry just to clarify, I would like K's in Australia to be proven. IE if it has a Nismo cluster, when was it fitted and how many K's did the original OD have on it?

I get real sick and tired of going to have a look at a car with Genuine low K's to find out it has a 300k/hr speedo. Jap imports don't have 300k/hr speedo's. That's all I am trying to avoid here. Don't show me a 300k/hr speedo with 60k on it and say it's genuine.

Besides that you can do a car history check on most Jap imports for the K's at the time of import and then look at the service history from there. Is it fool proof, hell no. Is it better than "Genuine" K's on an after market cluster? Hell yes. Just don't want a drive train with 2-300k on it, no matter how good the compression is on the motor.

Cheers.

      Excuse me for butting in....but which part of ADHD can be considered a superpower? I would have though it far more likely that some ASD comorbidity is more likely to be contributing to an ability to hyperfocus on something. ADHD being aimed somewhat in the other direction. My shed looks like your shed. My whiteboard list of unfinished projects has entries going back 15 years. I know what you're talking about - I just struggle to connect ADHD to the results being discussed.

      Thanks for reaching out!  It's a blessing and a curse at the same time.  I'm undiagnosed but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see it in me... I have more half started projects laying around my house, shed, garden, etc taking up space and money, destroying aesthetics than if I added up all of my mates projects together. But, ADHD gives me the ability to hyper focus on things that no mere mortal could even  comprehend.  A recent pool build is an example of that....  I dont know anyone else that would be dumb enough and focused enough to take on then complete something of that magnitude. I call ADHD a superpower but it can equally be completely destructive if not controlled and focusedon the right places. Addiction is a major concern to ADHD people and thankfully my addictions have been no worse than projects, XBOX, chocolate and being an arsehole! It's often hereditary and my 13 year old son is currently learning how to drive it at the moment. Keep lurking! If i can finally finish this bloody thing at some point it will be a win for all of us ADHD'ers! 🤪

      I've been quietly following this thread for ages, but this one got me. Since my ADHD diagnosis (and associated learnings and prescription) I'm way less inclined to wade into forum yarns when there are better things to do with my time, as half the time I'd end up in some kind of forum debate even if that wasn't my intention. I've not lost the ADHD "superpowers", just am a lot better at directing my hyperfocus into slightly more constructive things, but haven't stopped quietly lurking in here in my spare time.

      Stripped the tank down and gave it a good scrub. It came up really good! Not sure if I'll just put it back in like that or give it a blackening treatment (such as Bowdens The Black Box). That might give it a matte look so might just run it as is.

      @MBS206 Ha ha, yeah ADHD is a daily battle to not get drawn in to doing things you want to do that you know you shouldn't do!  Every single time I walk into my shed I end up doing something I started the day having zero intention of doing! I keep mentioning the 1 step forward, 3 steps back scenario and I'm tipping people that are blessed with ADHD (yes, blessed) are the worst at that!
