Hey all, :action-smiley-069:

Been following imports 4 quite a while now... since the early 90s!!!

My all time fav car is the awesome Nissan Skyline GTR!! By far and away the best value for money and kick ar%e car there has ever been!!

I have owned...

Back in 1996 - 1992 Nissan Silvia Ks Manual (Charcoal Grey) Stock with an exhaust (Dump pipe & Cat back Kakimoto Racing exhaust)

Back in 2003 - 1992 Nissan Skyline GTR - R32 (Silver with blue pearl) Stock with an exhaust ran a 13.03 at Heathcote. Then after a problem fitted a rebuilt RB26 with HKS Stage 2 cams, adj cam gears, replaced ceramic turbine wheels with steel and Power FC computer - produced 245 rwkw on 13.5psi.

Back in 2006 - 1996 NIssan 180SX with Type X look (White), Tien Suspension with camber tops(which I still have and looking to get rid off, 2 shockers need to be rebuilt), exhaust and a set of 18 inch wheels)

I am currently in the process of purchasing a 2007/2008 Nissan Skyline CKV36 Manual Colour is still a problem, not sure yet (probably go with White pearl or Charcoal Grey... Carn't wait!!!!! :D

Cheers all,

Rob

Hey guys.

My name is mark. From Newcastle, just got my hands on a 2002 V35 250GT sedan in pearl white. Picked it up for $10.200 in Sydney with my trade in of a 98 N15

What can I say it is a huge step up. This is my third Nissan and I love them to bits.

New to this blog/forums thing, but I'll pick it up!

Congratulations Dan.! Late 2005 Coupe lakeshore blue-is it manaul or auto ??. I got the Impul lip spoiler. Good luck with the compliance, looks like you have modified exhaust (as many do). Just fiddley cause they have to remove put standard one then put it back on. Wonder if you got chipped ecu also?8. You wont be able to wipe the grin off your face first few weeks! Welcome to the V's

Cheers Elie. Yeah seems like it has the exhaust, and intake aftermarket. Not too sure if its cat back or the full system, will find out soon enough. Its an auto, correct its a 2005. Looks like it has the full aero package because I'm pretty sure it has the oem front lip. Ive been doing a bit of reading on them, didn't realise there are so many variants. First thing will be getting the tv/dvd and the radio going.

Welcome to the V-series community, Dan. Hope you would enjoy new generation Skyline.

On site note, that's a good looking front lip. I haven't seen this kind in aero package. Maybe it's because it's 05 model?

Thanks, im sure I will. Yeah I think it looks good. No idea about the lip, was hoping you guys'd know, but seeing as it has the oem spoiler and guards I would say it is.

Hi Everyone,

I'm Ben from Coffs Harbour area, thought id introduce myself to the v series community, im hopefully getting a v35 coupe/sedan in the new year. Ive been looking to upgrade for a while and ive fallen for just about everything that the v series can offer!! I think ive seen maybe 3 - 4 of these in the area over the last 3 years so it will definitely stand out in the crowd rolleyes.gif

I just want something a little bit different, p platers give imports a bad name up here, so many riced up 32's,33's and a few 34's not to mention anyone who owns a vt commonwhore with rims thinks they can take on anything rofl.gif

Never owned an import before but getting really excited for it. Got a mate who just imported a chaser and im like time for an upgrade i think especially since im driving a crv....

    • No. GKTech arms have spherical bearings in them. No bushes. You will not need bushes for those arms. The sphericals are a bit of a maintenance nightmare. I have replaced all of mine several times in the 5 or so years I've had them, and I have the arms out regularly to clean and lube the balls. Worth the pain on an R32, because the standard arm design is trash. If you need the camber adjustment, there are other options (than the GKTech ones), although I would still lean towards and prefer the GKTech ones, even with the maintenance load of the sphericals. The caster adjustment is also highly valuable, allowing for setting the car up to drive straight. There are a million options for these, including the GKTech ones. I've had Tein rods on mine for 20 years and the balls are much less trouble in that location. Never given me a moment's pain. All positives, no negatives. I consider them compulsory.
    • Lol yeah I ordered the clips mentioned and as far as the amayama diagrams go i think thats all I'll need. Fogured id ask, sometimes people's first hand experience doesnt always match up to diagrams haha, i guess I'll wing it and worse comes to worse I'll just deal with it as I go
    • Thanks for all that information I appreciate it. To answer your questions: - Yep that's what I mean. These guys are professional painters to so I must be missing something. It's a bit hard to explain. - With the primer landing on clearcoat, I make sure that the surrounding clearcoat is scuffed to 240 grit as my epoxy primer says that I only need to sand the area to 240 grit. - Yeah so similar to the first question, assuming that the paint landed on the unscuffed clearcoat because I've seen that happen. - Yep I want to prep the surface in that order. Only reason because epoxy primer will protect it from rust and I need that atm with this crappy Sydney weather. I think I was worried about time, if I try to put the filler down but screw it up somehow and I don't have time to sand it off and reapply it then need to put primer later that it might start to rust again so I wanted to apply the primer as quick as possible to not deal with rust.  - I just deleted some answers, I just realised after watching a video and what you said about looking at the data sheet, that I need to read the data sheet on the specific filler I'm using. It's possible now that I put epoxy primer first was a waste of time and need to go to bare metal lol
    • I did. I went to a suspension guy and he told me because I don't have adjustable camber arms it's the reason why my car veers towards the left if I take my hands off the wheel but if I drive my other every day car and take my hands off the steering wheel it goes completely straight. I think it's common with Skyline's. In order to fix the problem, I likely need gktech camber arms then nismo bushes since I have poly bushes atm, then a wheel alignment after that. With my car if I take my hands off the steering wheel on a really bumpy road before stopping at a light I have to hold my steering wheel somewhat tight otherwise my car will legit just go completely in the other direction quite quickly and I'll slam into something lol instead of stopping straight. I Believe this YouTuber had the same issue and fixed it with gktech arms. At timestmap 6:05 he talks about how the car doesn't veer anymore after installing these arms.  
    • hello! does anyone have a schematic that shows how to test the blower motor resistor for the vac system? i believe the part# is 27761-15U00. I think the resistor is toast, but would like to be able to test it somehow before i embark on the journey to find a new one. cheers! 27761-15U00
