Hey,

I am tossing up weather to, in the next couple of months, sell the skyline and upgrade to a twin turbo skyline, or do a couple of things to my skyline.

It's an R32 - 1993 model, what I was thinking was painting it yellow?? Any one got any pictures of a yellow R32?

Was also thinking maybe a cooler and some new wheels..

Would dark wheels look good on yellow, or maybe white??

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Scott

mmmmm yellow....yuummmmy :( :( :P

as for your decision, well I think everyone will say to get the GTR cos it's what we'd all kill to own!! If you've got the money, then go for it! But it sounds to me like you're more keen on doing some stuff to your R32 :P i guess only you can decide which way to go.

oh, here's pic of one of those club spec rexes u guys are talking about:

Thanks for the suggestions and photo's... I'm still not to sure what I am going to do..

If I change the colour then i should probably get some new wheels, and a nice big cooler to finish the front, but it's all $$$..

Or I could just get my loan through the business and get the car I really want...

As for the club spec evo's..my brother sold his yellow one a couple of months ago...here's a pic..

hey nvs

if you can get hold of an R32 GT-R then thats definately appealing, but check out what its going to cost to insure first because it may be scary. for example: for me to insure a $10,000 R1 motorbike, the cheapest i can get it is $3900 per year.

gotta say go the R over some yellow paint, wheels and a cooler, because an R is going to be a much bigger step up.

good luck with it mate.

    • You have the option to do this. Nobody but me ever did this (go slower, I mean) Everyone seems to fall victim to "This would be a great setup for you, but for me, I need a little more power..."

    • There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day.
