Ok well after 3 weeks of looking and nearly buying the wrong car from the wrong car dealer I have finally went down to see the guys at SSV in Melb and they matched me up with the new love of my life lol :(

I have always been a Holden Commodore guy and lately into XR6Ts but this car just blew me away I reckon this 96 model Skyline is a much better put together car than some of the new local cars.

Shes a 96 GTS-T Silver.

Low Ks.

Blitz Dual stage turbo timer.

Auto's are very fun, but chances are your licence wont stay in your wallet for long.

but awsome ride dude, and nice to see you kept your options open to all car companys.

good luck!

yeah very fun :sweat: im smiling every time i drive it!

u mean autos make it harder to stick to the speed limit rather than manuals? i like to squirt it every now and then but i respect the car too much to floor it around every bend. i also had my lisense for over 7 years now... so bit more mature than ur average skyline owner.

Thtas good to hear. A lot of liners are just inexperienced drivers. I don't respect drivers that drive like they got something to prove. That kind of behaviour belongs on the track!

      Prop Shaft rebuilding Melbourne.

      I also used Knox driveshafts when I the slip yoke T56 to the 3bolted TR6060 type. I believe I was one of his first jobs as it literally changed hands when I was there, started by the old owner and finished by the new. Everyone seemed pretty great about it. So wasn't shy/seemed pretty knowledgeable when dealing with weird custom people like me.

      We used Knox Drive shafts years ago when we were doing gravel rally, good guy but I heard it had changed hands? He's got a lot of stuff and is miles cheaper than GJ and so on. He used to have a lathe setup with a MIG torch on the tool holder so he could get the uni welds just right, quite a clever guy. I just got a driveshaft done for my sequential installation and that was through Balancing Services Australia in Preston, they did the Gibson cars in the old days. New genuine CV's, billet yoke, new centre bearing and chome moly shaft was $2k.

      Thanks for sharing that mate, I've got a couple of spares on the shelf but all the unis are tight....will give old mate a shout. BTW are you sure it wasn't just a $400 paint job? Any detail of what they replaced (cut/reweld?)

      New Skyline will be RWD and manual

      By Duncan · Posted

      Yeah I saw that about the US Q50 recently, apparently it was shown to Inifiniti dealers (probably to help with their depression about the cars they can sell). Seemed like a really obvious step to me, the platforms are very similar in many ways. Even if there aren't many people who actually put the money up it should really help with image/reputation. What hasn't been clear anywhere if that is a V38 model of if they are just going to add the trans as an option in a new model year. What they did with the Z from 370z to "Z" is just weird so I'd be surprised if they released this as a V38. Great news for me to have an option; it is far from confirmed that I can get any decent track sessions through the auto so having a manual I can swap to is great.
