Hi just wondering if anyone knows the specific differences in a standard skyline to a 40th anniversary.

Just every time i read of a 40th anniversary its always an 98 model; and mine is a January 97 model, i have badges on the back pillars. Not sure about a number under the bonnet, it has a silver dash, and red calipers front and back, and a sunroof, It's white.

Has anyone got the same car? Pictures?

Thanks,

Julian

Mate has one of these, think it has a badge on the front seats too, and the badges you mentioned behind the rear quarter windows.

I have a set of tomei cams for this model for sale (bought by mistake brand new), they only fit the late series II's (and 40th anniversary)

They were available in late 97 also. As mentioned the badges on the rear pillars and the badge also stitched into the seats. Also there was an option for a different front bar too.

:P

Was told by Tinks once that 40th anniversaries had Nismo front lips, 400R side skirts, GT-R wings and them fancy 40th anniversary badges... welll at least her once does. I've seen them with GT-R front bars and your usual factory side skirts too...

Well mine is a 96, so no way in hell a 40th anniversary but it has a grey dash, and grey calipers front and back, and no sunroof. I'd imagine a non-40th anniversary would be similar (ie a 1997+ 40th anniversary).

Here's a picture of my car, the front bumper came with it when i bought it but doubt it is standard. I put the GTR wing on about 4 months ago. And a pic of the silver dash. I thought all 1997 model skylines have embroidery in the seats.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
