Hi guys
Been meaning to do this for months now...better late than never so here goes...
I have always, well for as long as I can remember, loved the GT-R Skyline.
Previously I owned a couple of r32 gts-t Skylines and since selling my last one back in 2006 (link below) I have been waiting patiently…

Since selling the gts-t I knew a GT-R would be next and in March 2012 the 5 year + wait was over....
I wasn’t really looking when this one came up locally…but it was in the best factory colour (in my opinion) and had minimal mods from standard. Bolt on parts included:
Suspension (Tein coilovers)
Exhaust (5Zigen cat back)
M’s intakes with K & N air filters
Wheels (Rota 17 x 9’s)
ECU (Mines upgraded)
Steering wheel
That’s pretty much it. Standard gear really. As soon as I looked at the car I started mentally making a list of all the things I wanted to change/fix/upgrade mainly to make it as reliable as possible. Growing up around motors you quickly learn reliability is paramount!
Man did I open a MASSIVE can of worms!!!
I literally only drove 100 kms or so before parking her up and started getting stuck in. It’s been sitting on the hoist for going on 8 months now…
Next begins the strip down...stay tuned, I am in deep now haha
