Hey everyone,

Just thought i'd mention that I just sold my skyline! Looks like i'm out of the turbo world unfortunately. I guess i wont be missing the countless fines and defects, i should save a lot of money!! This was the main factor behind selling my car, i'd equate the running/keeping costs as on par with a mercedes/ferrari! haha. If I couldn't have the car the way i liked it which included several illegal modifications, then i might as well sell it because there is no way i would return the car to stock!!

It sucked to give up something that i loved so much, the sound of the straight pipe exhaust with no resonator or cat always gave a thrill. I almost cried when it ripped off down the street with its new owner!!

I guess i wont be on these forums very much anymore since I dont own a skyline now. Would just like to pass on thanks for everyone that assisted me and the high quality of posts by other users that proved to be very helpful, interesting and funny.

All the best.

JAPCAB.

Oh hell yeah...i remember at one point i was using about 350-400 per week on petrol lol....my lead footed driving style definately contributed to wasting tank upon tank of petrol! I barely used to get out of the car, i was either sleeping, eating or driving my car haha. Next car? well.... something that wont get a canary! maybe s2000? i dont particularly want to go turbo again because the tendency will be there to make it mega loud, and pop on heaps of illegal goodies.

well u save money on petrol as well :rofl: thats a good thing. Whats your next car then? Echo ;)

    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
    • Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.
