pfft as if man. skylines are crap. i'll race you in my dads manual holden station wagon with one hand tied behind my back and still beat you!

Oh please, surely this isn't worth 23+ pages of debate??

But because I am hooked in like a sucker too, I will add my 2c - I am a 5th generation Australian, my ancestors stole bread for me to be born here, I was conceived in the back seat of a Holden & grew up with 5.0L+ of Holden & Ford icons. So why do I drive a GTR?

Simple, engineering prowess, 2 door sports coupe (2 doors = sports, 4 doors = family taxi) that for the $$$ performance, stuff all else on the road can touch. I have given up wasting fuel on ‘fly-by’ Commonwhore’s that should’ve been pressed metal 10 years ago – believe me if there was a Holden that could satisfy my carving for quality performance I would be there – but there’s not.

All I can say is find someone who owns a Skyline & go for a ride – I am sure you’ll then come to understand the ‘dark side’.

You have hit the nail on the head that is so spot on and why we have all turned to nissan.......

:O:D:D:D

i asked my dad but he wouldn't give it to me. he's scared all the power might be too much for me. you're lucky punk.

Look bro,I love my skylines..and V8s and everything else.But its the package that counts for me..a car that has ALL the power and absolute shit handling is not for me.Skylines got good handling and makes the power and the handling is where the holdens suck at.

Just my opinion..and I drive holdens nearly everyday,btw.

    • Dose will be able to confirm this more, but a 1.5 way IS a 2 way. It's just not as aggressive on one of the ramps. Changing from 2 to 1.5 I'm not sure how though.
    • No updates on the car but figured I'd share a nice outing. All the recent work paid off and I got it all together and out the shed for a car based pre-wedding celebration for a good mate of mine. Pretty casual cruise through the hills to a pub for lunch then out for some go-karting at The Bend. Headed down to Myponga for the night We stopped in at the reservoir before heading out down to the coast for lunch via the dam  By the end of the weekend away I covered 350km and the 32 generally behaved its self. A good Shake down after being apart before the Track day in a few weeks  
    • The front prop shaft from my GTR had very notchy unis, which obviously needed replacement but unfortunately uses the (usually) non-replaceable (staked) type.     A new shaft is something like $2K plus shipping from Japan.   I wouldn't even bother asking the local Nissan spares dept.     Rang Hardy Spicer but no go, which surprised me a little.     There's a place over Dandenong way that would make me a 'performance' shaft but un-necessary in my situation.   They claimed to be getting the equipment in to replace staked unis but couldn't give me a timeframe.   Anyway, long story short, found a place to do the work just 5 mins from me: https://knoxdriveshafts.com.au $420 (cash) and about a week later I have my driveshaft back.   Price includes balancing. Owner is a one man band working out of a shed in his backyard but from what I could see he's very well setup with some expensive equipment.  
    • Thanks. That's what I was after. One of the kits, the o-ring side is too big diameter. The other kit is a plate with a o-ring to seal and the hose connection offset.
