Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

How much is the z32?

If you buy it get a fire extinguisher just to be on the safe side lol. I know the old z31 got a recal from factory due to catching fire and iv been told the z32 isnt any better due to engine size and fuel lines.

I love my Zeds but the vg engine has always kept me away

I heard that the VG engine is sweet as, its just the rest of the car isnt built too well around it (mainly cramped and overheating issues) ?

Probably could get it for around $5k maybe under.

Hi people of sau sa, my name is Alan, some of you have probably seen me browsing on these forums on a daily basis, ive been on here for couple months now. I just thought i should finally introduce myself :down: . I have been quite interested in purchasing a skyline for quite some time now. Leaning towards an r32 atm.

PS. i do not know much about cars etc (technical stuff), so i hope you can help build my knowledge through answering some of my stupid questions.

      Prop Shaft rebuilding Melbourne.

      I also used Knox driveshafts when I the slip yoke T56 to the 3bolted TR6060 type. I believe I was one of his first jobs as it literally changed hands when I was there, started by the old owner and finished by the new. Everyone seemed pretty great about it. So wasn't shy/seemed pretty knowledgeable when dealing with weird custom people like me.

      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?)

      New Skyline will be RWD and manual

      By Duncan · Posted

      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.
