It absolutely blows me away that there'd be a '4 door Skyline club' in Japan.
It seems to me that there'd be a club for just about every car addiction over there!

My doors are ok but like almost all old Skylines I've seen, the drivers' door closes with a really cheap sounding clang.
Unlike the passenger door which still closes solidly.
What can be done to restore the solid thud or a new door?

I'm interested in the three day weekend as well - call in sick on Monday.
Either I drive one day and be a passenger on a 2nd day etc.
I honestly don't think I can do both days as I suck a bit.

I've heard of 550Nm from a mild RB26.
As much as 51kg/cm^2 from an Apex AX53B70 on an RB25.
Is 450Nm to 500Nm possible with the right turbo on an RB25 thry the midrange? And why is it not usually measured on a dyno?
Be advised that huge torque is not great idea for stock gearboxes and driveline components.

I have the same starting problem on my car. It's like as if the starter motor is dying but I think it's rather the pump is not getting enough amperage to kick over.
I'm pretty sure my pump was dropped in and there was nothing done to increase the capacity of the cables to the pump.
Mine does always start though, it is just recalcitrant to kick over.

Take it to a Skyline specialist who will give you a full written report on the car.
There are a number of import workshops who can give an accurate assessement.

I wonder if these cars will meet the discerning taste of the average Japanese enthusiast.
Will they need lessons in circle work and the workings of the eternal Ford vs. Holden struggle?
