Hi i am just new to the skyline thing and i just got my first skyline ever. :(. PIcked this up not that long ago and man i was impressed. These cars are wicked. I never even been in a skyline till i test drove this. I don't think i will be able to wipe the smile off my dial for ages. Here is a pic of the car i brought. Do u guys like it or can suggest any mods i should make to it style.

Thanks guys. I am really happy with the car and i am still getting used to people looking at me every where i go as my old car was a subaru 4WD station wagon. it is very nice inside and out plus some of the things that i was planning to do when i got a skyline have already been done on this car for me by the jap owner. The car is quite standard with a few mods which i have listed below:

-TEIN coil over adjustable suspension all round.

-Front strut brace.

-Turbo timer.

-98' series 3 front bumper.

-3" cat back system.

Hey i was just wondering how long it took for you guys to stop feeling paranoid about ur cars when u first got them. i don't want to take it to any shopping places and i too affaid to leave it any where in public too long. Also when i get out and turbo timer is going i feel weird walking off with the car running.

Very nice, looks good!

I still get paranoid leaving mine in public (had it for almost a yr), just try and minimise it whenever i can

just make sure you get a good alarm/immobiliser installed correctly

I've had mine for 2yrs now, full comprehensive insurance and im still paranoid about leaving it some places. I dont think i'll ever leave it unattended in a massive shopping centre carpark (ie westfields)..

I agree with most of the others in this thread too, the looks hot already, bring on the power mods.

Very nice car mate I still remember the first one I test drove they are a fantastic car. Have a look at the R33 GTS25T engine tuning guide on the website in my sig mate should be a good start.

Hey thank all. Yeah I hope to build my car up into a good all round streeter. I will be starting with the performance mods soon but I have to buy a deccent head unit and speakers first. Also does anyone know why nissan cheaped out when putting speakers in the car. It only had 30watt max speakers.

Still get very paranoid. Every scratch, every dent that I see is followed by a million swear words. Take good care of the car bud - its worth every dollar and every minute. It takes me ages to clean the car too - but its like my kid, and after all we all want the best for our children hehe.

    • Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!
    • This is going to be a mid week evening cruise. Come along and join us for a drive out to Palm Beach. This is a change of event plans after talking to some of the older members of the club. SAU NSW is planning on hitting Old Pac again shortly, stay tuned for details. When: Thursday 26th of June Time: 7:30pm meet/8:00pm departure/10:00pm finish Meet: Spit West Car Park / Spit Rd Mosman NSW 2088 Destination: Palm Beach Public Parking / 16 Ocean Rd Palm Beach NSW 2108 Up to date information as always can be found on the events page of our website, the link for this event is https://www.saunsw.com.au/events/palm-beach-cruise There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave. Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
    • Good time for a carbon roof  
    • Not in any way aroused by any of those, except maybe the big AMGs. And that would break my never a Euro, ever, rule.
