i know this is goinna sound a bit mean, but if you gonna own a skyline, make sure you have the money to pay for insurance, im not saying that anyone deserves to have their skyline stolen, just the fact that it is your own fault for not having any insurance on the car. its an expensice that in the end, if anything ever happens, is worth it. It the same thing with an alarm, your silly if you dont have one, and just asking for trouble. when i first got my car and it had to be taken off the road not even 24 hours after getting the car, i was sooooooooo paranoid about her just sitting in the driveway with no alarm, so i ended up getting her towed down to the place where the alarm was getting installed. i was able to sleep properly after that, cause i swear i didnt until the alarm was in, every little noise woke me up!

I cant understand why anyone would leave a GTR out of their sight if they hav no insurance on it! Insure it is the first thing you do, i've got insurance on mine but i still chain it to the shed, put a wheel clamp on, club lock on also .... oh and its also in a locked and alarmed shed!!!! not to mention i got a dog too!!! HAHA!! i think mines safe!

with all the car thefts lately you can never be too safe tho!

i saw a couple of wankers susing out my car at marion the other day, when they noticed me walking back to the car with my mates they quickly took off. looked young and dumb so probably a couple of kids having a squiz.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
