slimjim Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Hey everyone Just thought I'd say hi, my names James and I just got my first Skyline, an R32 GT-R. Just got it off the truck from Sydney today! It came over unregistered, so had to get an ID check at good ol' Regency, but seems it doesn't have a compliance plate so now it needs a full roadworthy inspection in mid-January! Spewin about that. So its gonna be sitting in the driveway for about a month. The wait is gonna kill me! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/98980-hey-guys/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
kralster Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Hi there and welcome to the community, we are generally a nice bunch of people but if you are gonna ask a question please use the search button first as it has more than likely been asked and answered before. So your car got any mods or anything? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/98980-hey-guys/#findComment-1802797 Share on other sites More sharing options...

slimjim Posted December 20, 2005 Author Share Posted December 20, 2005 Hey thanks for the hearty welcomes The car has a GREX oil cooler, and a 3" turbo back exhaust which I think is TOM'S branded, but only has the 'M's' embossed on the muffler. Not too sure. Had a turbo timer but I ripped it out before going to Regency and managed to break it haha so will have to buy a new one! Other than that its completely stock. I've heard its illegal to modify an exhaust before the cat so I might have to look into changing it for Regency. My mate reckons the 'cat' might actually be a pre-silencer. So if theres no cat thats definitely no good eh. Really quiet exhaust and nice tone though!

Nightcrawler Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 damn that is tidy/new looking under the bonnet! I laugh at all the 'supposed' 50-80,000km R32GTRs coming out of Japan at the moment, and the engine bays look like they have done 300,000+km!
