4. everyone thinking its a volvo ...yuckkk!!

5. can't do burnouts

I just thought of a second and third point:

2. My wife owns it.

3. I'm paying for it.

4. She's paying me back with children etc..but then thats a good thing!

Dont get me wrong though i love my stag these are just minor things that i can easily live with!

I constantly get compliments from a range of people, older generation, kids in primary school, middle aged people, teenagers etc...

1: I have owned it for 12 months, and have only drove it 1 day!

5. fuel consuption of a 10L v12 at full throttle haha

6. i get more looks than just skylines i can tell u that :)

7. manual consoles cost too much

8. cant lower it enough

that is all...

What a bunch of whingers you lot are.

1. The only car better than a Nissan is another Nissan.

2 If you cant afford the petrol, buy a Dunnydoor and gas it

3 For $131/2k, on the road, insured, my 96 S1 is a f**king good buy.

4 As a stocker it handles better than any other wagon of its type and size.

5 As an everyday drive it is a pleasure and it has a HUGE cargo area.

6 If you want to be naughty, hit it! Red line is easy toachieve.

7 The only car I've had that is faster, was my RMR30. And that is because it did not have a speed limiter.

8 It seems that the common gripe is lack of time to do the things you want todo, just to make her better. I've got a DFA, Controller, Timer , Cold air Deflector and a Kenwood Head Set all ready to install but no time.

BTW it's pissing pickhandles here atm. God bless Tamborine, as we have no drought.

9 Useless info. The S13 should be ready by the end of the month. It's going to be a serious drifter. Not going to use the R30 totow it. Looking at a Patrol or Maverick diesel. So I don't need a tow bar for the S1.

10 Being a 66yo (actually 67 now) lets me enjoy life's little goodies all the more.

My main gripe is i cant get a replacement ECU for it.

2nd is probably weight

Lack of leather and a top class interior

Then rusty mirrors.

Maybe this place can lyten ya wallet?

ok just some skyline drivers are tools mostly the ones i know,

i asked my friend who has a silver S2 R33 why he bought it,

"so i can pull chicks and go fast" no interest in the car whatsoever.

then i said ''what you going to do to it, hi flow the turbo?"

he's like ''yeah yeah hi mount'' not knowing what i was talking about

just my whinge im sure most skyline drivers know whats going on

1. The engineer at nissan who designed the motor that controls the fresh air/recycled air flap - The pulsar and the stagea both went click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click. Testicle clamp time for you buddy!

2. Trying to figure out how many different ways to hang the cargo net.

3. Son of the recycle flap engineer that designed the oil filter position.

1 i hate the standard brakes. ( slotted rotors on the way)

other than that i love my stagea i like driving it more then my skyline

i love that mine i factory rwd and does phat skids

it has black leather with seat warmers love that

love my xenon lights

and my wheels and it goes hard for a big car

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
