Spook's_Skyline

mines going in tuesday; ill let you know how it goes!

yup, that was from the dealer for that price could have gone cheaper elsewhere, but wanted this one

i paid 24000 for my 4 door manual, with 70k ks on it; its straight as witha nice paint job, 18"s, front strut and no other mods; i love it dearly; i was weighing up against another 4 door that i saw down in logan for 17000, no where near as nice, exhaust, turbo timer, but every panel had nicks and scratches; my body is perfect;

well, me and the missus insure through suncorp in queensland and they are by far the cheapest insurance ive come across only catch was being older than 25 (the missus was only 24 when we got it though, but because we do all our insurance though suncorp we wrote them a big suckup letter and they aggreed to insure us while woman was younger than 25) i think we pay 1300 bux a year premium (about the same as we paid when we had the mirage insured with them) and the excess is 1000 bux or so; seems pretty reasonable to me;

when i got my skyline, it demonstrated this exact problem; didnt do nuthin, but it went away;

im getting one put in on tuesday at slacks creek brakes and clutch my clutch shat itself on the weekend and tuesday next week was the earliest they could do it!

oh and the rattles are definately in the front doors ive had some stereo work done and they seem worse since then ive had the stereo mob look at it a couple of times, they say they have secured everything they did

and just to add to the annoyance my climate control fan has started making a god awful noise even at low speeds these are all minor annoyances when compared with how much enjoyment i get from my car, but its driving me crazy all the same it sounds like there is something stuck in the fan and it flicks it on each revolution hopefully a leaf or something has got stuck in there and it will be broken down eventually; anybody know how to get to the fan/climate control stuff? it sounds like its above the passengers feet under the glovebox . . .

my skyline seems to have developed some nasty rattles; on smooth road its awesome, with less road noise from the tyres than my old mirage (not bad considering the tyres are soo much larger on the skyline) anyway, the rattles seem to be getting worse on rough roads and they are driving me mental where would be a good place to take the skyline to get rattles investigated? id be tempted to have a go myself at taking apart door trims and what not, but id hate to get things appart and then not be able to put them back together. anybody got any suggestions for me?
