Love this thread!

You know you drive a skyline when;

.. your last girlfriend left you because you forgot her birthday.. again.. while your at home changing a clutch.

.. your dad buys one because he is jelous

.. the bloke in the other car simply ignores you

.. drive 7 suburbs away to get milk and eggs, simply because you can drive longer

.. you spend over $150 in one night on petrol to continue driving the twisties..

.. when jumping in an AMG at work n longer excites you

You know your in a Skyline when...

* That RX7 just blew your doors off........................

* Your holding up some strange sounding car, with pop up headlights..............

* You have people fallging you down in the city asking for Taxi rides..............

* Your girl left you mid cruise to "check out the cool RX7 accorss the road"

* Skyline Inferior, RX7 Superior...........

When you spend 20minutes going around the block until a parking spot in front of the place your going to becomes free so your car is never out of your sight.

thats very true. Especially at uni, got to park it oppisite the computer lab so i can glance out the window to see if it is alright!

when you drive past the broken down rx7 laughing to yourself thanking god you didn't buy a rotary...

Myth...

Secretly you'd pass the said broken down rotor and think.... "dam, I wish I was cool enough to own a rotor" :)....

But seriously they are both great cars.

You know you drive a Skyline when:

You think you can beat anything on the road

You know you drive a Skyline when you think nothing is as good as one and you arc up something feirce when anyone begs to differ :)

...when you are given the most busted arse ute on site because they think your a hoon, then when it breaks after being abused by every other SOB and you get the blame.

...when you practice your apex's and lines around site in the busted arse ute.

...When you think flying to Japan for a car show is a logical way to spend money.

...When the driver of the 355 Ferrari you just beat refuses to make eye contact...roflmao

...When the scooby driver arrives at the freeway off ramp lights 15 seconds later and politely ask's how much HP the R makes and can his wrx do that...lol

It's probably in here already, but when you call insurance companies and they refuse to cover "imports", you must be over 25 for owning a Skyline, or over 30 because you mentioned "GTR".

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
