Dam these Bloody skylines!!! I wasnt even into cars before i bought one, i didnt even know ANYTHING about cars before i bought one. I bought my modded GTST and the power scared me so much i nearly sold the thing right away *my first car was a 60kw Excel then a 200 rwkw skyline, but after time the power just kept feeling less & less and all I can think about now is my next mod. I fall asleep thinking of how to get my car faster... Dam these skylines, they make modding a car more addictive than crack. I want to have a 11 sec car... but if i get my gtst maxed out for 11's , i'll only want 10s!! Dam these machines, addictiveness sent from hell. Now i just wana get a GTR so i can make some serious horsepower & probably blow ALL my money on having a ridiculously quick car. I need to be satisfied with what i got... AHHHHHHH:crazy:

haha... maybe crack will be a cheaper habit :rofl:

Anything will feel slow after a while.. When your line feels slow, drive and excel or a barina for a week then hop back into your line.. It will feel as fast as hell!!!!!

SAU does not condone the use of crack :jk:

who here actually drives an excel for a week just to get sky-high again?

If your worried about getting addicted to "skylining" then choose a less addictive (and less costly) habit, such as Gambling, drinking or maybe become an adrenaline junkie and start skydiving (avoid the pun)

Guys I drive a 1982 Ford laser all week to work and back!

On Friday night my urge to drive my 340 rwhp skyline is stronger than any addiction to any drug :-)

And yes the line feels a whole heap faster on the 1st day when you have been driving a laser all week... by sunday you are used to it all over again... then back to the ooooold laser :-( It's monday and I am already having withdrawal symptoms...... i need a hit of skyline please Mr Dealer ahahah :-)

I feel the pain. I was so proud of myself, being able to save money, till i bought my skyline. Now it only stays in my bank long enough till i can afford a power fc, intercooler, boost controller.....the list is never ending....I'm pretty much stock at the mo (only had the car 2 months) but in my head i'm chasing 2000rwkw (no thats not a typo)

If someone has a cure for this ( i cannot in any way forsee this coming to a natural end) please let me know.

the only cure for your 2000rwkw addiction is to actually satisfy it. But then you might be left wanting more... MORE :D

      I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though

      $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.

      Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.

      I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
