1. fuel consumption vs hp (think skylines have a better ratio)

2. my auto tranny...looking at a shift kit

3. stock brakes - just not sufficient with the kerb weight of the stagea

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

5. can't do burnouts

6. mods are addictive...once you start..it bleeds your wallet

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!

3)Too Heavy

4)Me not having enough money for all the mods i wanna do to it.

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!

that is all...

1: I have owned it for 6 months & have only driven it ~ six times.

2: Dunno what to buy first for my baby.

3: Only way to find out is to pull the bugger apart to see whatz already been done.

4: Dunno what to buy first for my baby!

3: too loud

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

    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
    • I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.    
    • Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>
    • I used to do that (sills with rubber jack block).. ... then I got side skirts, and there's no way for the jack to actually work there, the jack pad itself on the jack is too big. Is the answer to use a... smaller (?) jack? Hmmm.
    • I have too much trauma from every skyline I've ever seen having crushed jack points/pinch welds lol.    Yep, works 100%, it's what I use when I'm using the quick jack. Don't know why I can't also bring myself to do the same thing when I'm using a jack. I blame the skyline PTSD.
