I bought my rims and tyres from them, also some BC coilovers. I was very happy with their service but I put the wheels on myself so I don't know about the loose nut issues.

Hey guys,

I just bought my first skyline a couple weeks ago- white R33 gts-t. LOVE IT!

So far have put a 3" dump, hi-flo cat and 3" stainless HKS catback exhaust, 19 inch rims with 225 front and 245 rears, a trust front bar that is yet to be sprayed and looks pretty bogan, new suspension and a HKS SSQ blow off valve ('gasp- not an atmospheric' seems to be the general consensus around here, but i like it so go bang it haha). Next mods will be an Apexi SAFC and probs a few minor engine bits and bobs. not a race car yet, but i use it 700-1000km a week and pretty much everyone on the road pisses me off so i want it to be a fairly solid car!

Anyway, will be taking part in the next cruise organised so i can meet a few people.

There seems to be a heap of skyline owners from Alex Hills/cleveland/redlands area on here- i live in Alex hills so would be great to know some locals- maybe have a few drinks at the alex sometime!

Anyway, catcha round!

Hi guy thought I would introduce myself,

I have just purchased an 1998 R-34 Skyline 4dr GT-T, I live just out of Mackay in QLD. Not sure if there are many people on this forum from Mackay area.

After owning sevral V8 Fords & Holdens my younger brother finally convinced me to buy a Skyline.

My biggest concern as the car is actually for my girlfriend as an every day driver, would the thing last, I here of all these terrible stories of dodgy speedos, turbos blowning up, accident damaged cars etc. So was put off. How ever after seeing some pics of the car I was very impressed and my girlfriend as they are could stop annoying at me to buy one.

I was told to use a guy in Adelaide, he told me if I wanted a mint one to wait he would find me one, as I told him didnt want a piece of crap that was going to blow up. Next week he had found a really nice stock one grade 4.5 (which is good) with a Nismo exhaust.

It arrived a short time later and the guys lowered it 2 inches on Kings springs and it looks great. I was very surprised with the power of the car.

I think I gopt a good deal on it I paid $14500 delivered to the door.

Order some nice Shadow chrome wheels already so I'll update pics when they get here next week.

Well thats me and this is my car!!

      Torana Lx Gtr Hatch, Lots Of Pictures

      Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.

      Most women will agree that parking is the most taxing part of driving

      Well, yeah. But I just expect everything other than my car to feel like a bucket of shit anyway. I still miss my Alfa 116 so much though. You could run over a 20c piece and tell whether it was heads or tails.
