eyy guys my r33 skyline has done 156,000 km which is alot for a skyline of its year. just woundering if it is likley to give me problems later on because its a turboed car? i heard it is more likley to have problems because it is turboed? have you had many problems with your car and do they cost more to repair because they are imports and turboed?

Man these posts are getting old. Grow up kid. If you really do own a skyline you would know how much car shit costs, you have to spend money on them from the day you buy them, you would know that.

Go to bed.

yes. and its getting hellz annoying finding 3 new threads a week with the same backwards bullshit.

if you really DO own a skyline you will know they cost you freakin money, and a fair bit of it. not neccessarily just coz of shit that goes wrong with it. but other things as well, i.e modifying.

STFU your probably some rich c**t whos mum pays for all their sh*t anyway! if you dont wanna fkn answer my qstn then dont fkn reply. i havent got time for your crap you gay c**t

Nah man i actually paid for it all myself, every cent thats been spent on the car has been what ive earned. Sorry to prove your theory wrong buddy.

Wow kids these days, where did you learn those words? Touche Touche. :)

despite magpie's outburst, im gonna have to agree with Mr. Italy - skyline owners know how much it costs to run and maintain their cars. And it aint cheap....maybe if your worried about the costs - stick to integras

Edited by emsta2003

if you've got one and have had it for more than 2 months you will know.

if you "just got it" how'd you have the head and shit replaced 2 months ago?

im not here to start a flame war. thats what the wasteland is for. just think before you post bullshit all over the legit sections of the forums.

kthnx

no ive had it for about a year i bought it off my cousin! i kinda considered that just getting it coz ive only had it for about a year. Its just ive had alot of shit go wrong with it and as youd probably know im only 18 and dont have the money to be spending heaps and heaps and heaps on cars. i love my skyline to death but thought mabey an integra would be a good option for now being non turboed and good on petrol till i get a good job. all i wanted to know is that is it going to keep giving me problems being a turboed car thats all coz i heard they do?

no. and if you have had it for a year you should definitely know the costs by now.... lol

im 19, had mine for a year. and i know all the costs involved already. i knew them well before buying it to. so if you cant handle the costs involved, get a different car.

In answer to the thread's question... The problem with my car is it's an auto :)

Magpies03 = I don't think anyone on the forum here gives a Sh#t whether you own a skyline or any car, The guys here are not stupid & they've caught on that you've been less than honest in your previous posts, who are you trying to impress? If you have a skyline that's great, so do I, big Whoop. If you don't then why waste your time & everyone elses making up bullsh*t?

well arnt your a tank poombah speaking on behalf of everyone on SAU. if noone cars then why does everyone keep talking in my posts. instead of sitting there like a fat shit why dont you start a constructive post of your own. mabey you should stick with the civic. it obviously suits your personality more. also my topics are no different to anyone elses. WTF IS YOU PROBLEM?

one last simple answer to that post.

no your posts are not constructive

no they are not origional, they have been asked and covered 50 thousand times

and his problem is the same as most other peoples. stop starting bullshit threads that A) have been covered a heap of times, B) if you really did own said car you'd know the f**kin answer, especially if you have had the car for a year, and C) quit making said bullshit threads in the legit sections.

    • If they can dyno them, get them dyno'd, make sure they're not leaking, and if they look okay on the dyno and are performing relatively well, put them in the car.   If they're leaking oil etc, and you feel so inclined, open them up yourself and see what you can do to fix it. The main thing you're trying to do is replace the parts that perish, like seals. You're not attempting to change the valving. You might even be able to find somewhere that has the Tein parts/rebuild kit if you dig hard.
    • Can you also make sure the invoices on the box (And none exist in the boxes) are below our import duty limits... I jest, there's nothing I need to actually purchase and order in. (Unless you can find me a rear diff carrier, brand new, for stupidly cheap, that is for a Toyota Landcruiser, HZJ105R GXL, 2000 year model...)  
    • Murphy strikes again! Nothing at all would have gone wrong if you had the tool kit in the car! You'd have just found the clamp loose the next time you went to touch it...
    • I have been being VERY quiet about what you're alluding to, as it is something that ticks me off... The number of cars from factory that run coil overs is HUGE! Most of them these days do... The other part that annoys me, is people saying "Well all the incabin adjustable suspension is illegal by blah blah blah"... If that's the case, then why can I buy a car brand new that can do it if, FULL STOP in cabin adjustable suspension is illegal...   Also, I could just chuck some aftermarket shocks in my car, throw the stock springs on, after my blue slip, dump my super low springs back in. Same shock and spring style setup... Hell, they could also be the same colour springs etc.     I'm voting, BlueSlipper didn't want to touch the above car for some reason. Whether it be some sort of bias against the car, the owner, them maybe having previously done dodgy shit and now they're being super careful in case they get slapped in the face by the Gumbyment again... Find a new blueslip place.   And can confirm as you had said, yes there are holy bibles of vehicle heights, and all sorts of other suspension stuff. Heck your run of the mill mechanic, and tyre shop has access to all of that stuff. It's how they do wheel alignments...
    • Funny story Heading to Sydney this morning on the HWY there was some slow traffic, so I gave it the beans and midway through my overtaking "power run" I lost all power It seems that I missed a hose clamp,  and the MAF and filter went WiFi To make this more problematic, the little tool kit that lives in the boot, is sitting in the sun room at Goulburn......LOL Luckily for me I found a bit of steel on the side of the road that could be used like a rusty and bent flat head screw driver to tighten it up enough that it got me into Sydney, it is now all tight like a tiger with the aid of a 8mm socket Note to self: Use my brain and double check stuff, and always keep that little tool kit in the car for when I have a brain fart
