all that changing of parts might aswell buy a skyline

Why? Pinnies are cheap as chips....

Pinnys are good for owners of modded R31's to reshell with.... ie. me.

If they get defected.... ie me

if they get written off because they're track cars ie. me.

and what you mean "might as well buy a skyline?" a R31 IS a skyline!

(Albiet a old, boxy looking thing that rusts and usually has more kilometres than a model t ford)

lol, na went home and got the skyline. took some timing out of the power fc.

Put your injectors in and tune it! Make some real grunt brudda!

I wanna see 250 at the treadlies.....

We both know it's well capable.

Oh, I got home, opened my speeding fine, went out to work on the 31, decided it was too hot, and went back inside in front of the aircon where Ive been sitting on the couch drinking beers all arvo LOL.

not saying theyre bad but i m saying if u have to buy all them parts to change it to one sometimes why bother yes its good in ur sitcho but its not the same 4 all

sorry, that was meant to be a tounge in cheek reply LOL...

Skyline parts are cheap as chips anyways, and most people who buy a 31 end up dropping a 20/25/26 or a 30DET anyways, changing sus/brakes to aftermarket or S13 aftermarket, so why now use the cheapest shell you can?

oh, and also almost ALL pintara's are under $1K (most are around $300 - $500), and even a decent S2 Skyline is still fetching $3K. a Decent S3 GXE like mine is good for $5-$6k.... Ti's even more, then when you start getting into the SVD's/Imports, the price goes up over $10K....

so yeah, grab a $500 pinny, and use the $4500 difference to make it stomp the shit out of a skyline LOL.

Oh, and ryan - :( WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that's gonna be off the chizain fo shizzle. or something like that.

Just got a clean xf s-pack auto, 4.1 efi with 230,000 im the 3rd owner and its always been parked under a car port only paid $1200 :( its a daily and tow car but already im looking for 17inch AU XR8 mags and putting my 2x12inch subs in and dropping her 1.5 inch all way around.

but each to their own ben! im sure your 20 will do exactly what you want it to do once finished.

Yep. Skids. Big ones. And lots of em. And continually be thrashed like a $2 hanson road special.

And when she breaks, RB25DE goes in.

    • We used Knox Drive shafts years ago when we were doing gravel rally, good guy but I heard it had changed hands? He's got a lot of stuff and is miles cheaper than GJ and so on. He used to have a lathe setup with a MIG torch on the tool holder so he could get the uni welds just right, quite a clever guy. I just got a driveshaft done for my sequential installation and that was through Balancing Services Australia in Preston, they did the Gibson cars in the old days. New genuine CV's, billet yoke, new centre bearing and chome moly shaft was $2k.
    • Thanks for sharing that mate, I've got a couple of spares on the shelf but all the unis are tight....will give old mate a shout. BTW are you sure it wasn't just a $400 paint job? Any detail of what they replaced (cut/reweld?)
    • Yeah I saw that about the US Q50 recently, apparently it was shown to Inifiniti dealers (probably to help with their depression about the cars they can sell). Seemed like a really obvious step to me, the platforms are very similar in many ways. Even if there aren't many people who actually put the money up it should really help with image/reputation. What hasn't been clear anywhere if that is a V38 model of if they are just going to add the trans as an option in a new model year. What they did with the Z from 370z to "Z" is just weird so I'd be surprised if they released this as a V38. Great news for me to have an option; it is far from confirmed that I can get any decent track sessions through the auto so having a manual I can swap to is great.
    • I ordered it this morning, I'll disassemble it post pic's and info following delivery.
