How long did you want your skyline before you got it?

Im still saving my hard earned money to get the Car i want, and ive wanted a Jap import for nearly 2 years now.. and its killing me waiting this long! ive even had a couple of dreams about a black R34 and a white R34!!!!!!!

i think im going crazy?!

So what did you guys do while you waited and saved? How did you cope? or wernt you as obsessed?

Takes me normally....2 Years to work out the car I am happy with.

I make myself dizzy with all the options..

-Will it suit me?

-Will it keep its value?

-Will I get bored of it quickly?

-How much do I really want to spend on it?

-Am I going to modify it or just put some rims on(A MUST)?

-ON AND ON...it goes.

I then finally after seeing all the options for sale out there.....DECIDE.

Then it takes me 1 to 2 Months to find one that I am happy with.

Looking at all the shit out there...trust me.....you learn quickly why there is such a price difference.

Last two cars i have bought...the deal had fallen through...which sucked.

Then I had to look another 1 to 2 Months.

Trust me....if I could only save to get to this point , and knew the car I wanted it would be easy.

Cheers :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

hmm - well I was 15 when I imported a Nissan Stagea from Japan :laugh: Back in the day when P platers could drive turbos. I guess waiting for a car from Japan is worse than actually the wait to save up for the thing itself. Anyone who has imported will say the same thing... But yes - I am obsessed :laugh:

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no? 
    • What Duncan said sounds right. Also, it looks like they only have the driver's mat. Not the rest. Because looking at the diagram: KG4911 is just the mat for the driver. KG4900 is the full set if I'm not mistaken and discontinued.   But, it looks like they may still have the full set for the manual S2. Might be worth checking for the other models as well as they seem slightly different. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/misc/G49 Man, I'm tempted.
    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
