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!

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
