wilch Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I have a feeling that 2007 should be called the year of the broken Skyline. Mine's been broken for nearly 3 months... Is yours broken, or has it been off the road this year waiting to be fixed (for any period of time)? And why?

Zilch* Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Mine's been off the road since late February CAS died while driving fairly hard, overheated the hell out of it, needed a new turbo and decided to do everything in one hit. Work on it has taken forever having it done through a friend and now have totally lost patience and taken it to a workshop to have the rest of it installed. Should be pretty nice when I do eventually get it back though...

DRD-00F Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 techincally no... oh wait... yes damaged front bar... with a long ass repair time... f**k last year was worse for me though, but this year, about 80% of my friends that drive have had major car problems... 2 being written off, and one being burnt to a crisp... the rest are things like, getting keyed, broken difs, blown turbos, warped brakes etc etc etc...
