yeah i know how ya feel

Engine Blew

I crashed it

Someone broke into it

Someone slammed a trolley into it.

It drinks fuel like theres no tomorrow

It never starts first go

It does some weird arse shit

Its cost me about $10K this year

But you know what ....... I still love it ..... I enjoy driving it - i dont enjoydriving an old bomb .... slow cars send me insane .... my cars like a drug - cost me lots but i have to have it.

Just vent like we all do ;) ....... then think about what life would be like without it :)

Hahah Ascots no better and yes id love to catch the little phucktards that broke into my car too.

Well with any car leave it stock and you'll have little problems ...... mod it and you'll be constantly fixing it.

Memphis traded his Skyline for a new Ford Ute

Im sure you can get deep scratches out without a full respray - my mum had her new HSV keyed (yes its not just a skyline thing!!) and certainly didnt have the whole car resprayed to fix.

Brendan,

I think we all go through that stage. Hell, as Niz listed, most of us have done the "break one thing, fix it, break the next thing". It's an expensive little exercise to say the least, never mind some other little poor excuse for a human doing damage to your beast. That really gives me the shits. The thing is, I know that when i get home or get back to my car in the car park and look around, I love what I see when i see my car. Look around, they stand out, they are a great car. I have considered many a time what i would get next but can't find a worthy substitute under $50K. Nothing comes close.

I don't think that i could walk out of my house, look at my ford ute and smile everytime like i do when i see my skyline. It's a sense of pride I just can't compare against.

Just think about it, especially considering you only just got your R34!

Cheers!

What else you going to spend your money on?

If you need it for something else, then you can't afford your car, fair enough..

But skylines are a hobby not an investment, hobbies are expensive, surely you realised this before you bought it? ;)

get a bucket of crap ole rx7 (no offense to anyone, some can look shmicK!)

but yeah, mod the engine etc to crap leave the rest looking stock as a rock and i dont think they will touch it... (or use an ole datto!)

;)

jks

skylines are the bomb... i just always wish i had more money to do more mods, but dont we all ....

ever since the day I bought my car I've been trying to find the blasted turbocharger, but I can't... stupid thing... I'm so over this... what's it called... oh yeah... R32 GTS!

    • No......not yet Minister for War and Finances has stated that the Commodore has to go first Not that I am going to modify the NC any more than what it is already modified now.....
    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
    • Paint is only structural when applied to the outside of Chinese and Indian cars. Otherwise it should never be present between mechanical joints that were intended to be metal to metal. Pain slips, slides, cracks, compresses, and add thickness that wasn't intended to be there. It comes firmly under the category of "just no".
