I think I have worked out the top reasons people get skylines

1. Performance

2. After Market Parts

3. Body Styling (unless you own a R33 :mellow: )

4. Fast and Furious

5. They think it will pick up chicks.....

What makes me love skylines?

I really only like GTR's to be honest, GTST's dont "do it" for me

I love the way a tuned GTR with good suspension can just murder a corner, awd launch at 8000rpm, so easy to do get loads of power out of, smash uber expensive Euro's around the track....

Allow me to put the quotes on that for you.

bang for buck for my particular hoare, massive bang in all deptartments for the $$$ i paid to attain and keep her. I enjoy raping her across the rev range. driving it is a rollercoaster and brings a smile out of me that comes from somewhere inside.

I love the the fact that nothing else could give me the fun, performance and future potential for the money I paid. And the fact that I can drive it everyday.

However does anyone else get weird/aprehensive responses when you tell peple you love your car and thats it's a skyline? Most people seem to go oh........a skyline.............ok. They seem to make an instant mental not that you are a hoon, out to slaughter innocents on the road whenever you can.

I think you'll find it's not because you have a whale..

it's because you admit to having intimate feelings/emotions about a vehicle.

or it could be that they immediately assume you also like Fat chicks which is a sick thought on it's own.

They're all like "oh.. you "love" your r33 skyline hey?"

they're thinking "what a sick bastard.. I bet he get's his end wet in fat chicks too... *shudder*"

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
