Spotted a few Skylines today.......

- black R32 with GTR front bumper along grand junction this afternoon

- white R33 series 1 with what looks like the "Explosive" bodykit Hanson Rd traffic lights just before coming onto the Expressway this evening.

Yesterday I spotted really unusual thing... heading down marion road around 4pm I spotted a clean as black R33 behind me with p-plates and recent issue number plates driven by two older women of maori or pacific... maybe indigenous appearance. I was like, that cant be right so I wrote down the licence plate number and time... I'm not trying to be racist or predujice but they neither look like someone on p-plate or typical skyline drivers and they seemed hell nervous. I moved into a turning lane and then moved behind them so I could follow them. They were looking really nervously at me and they were doing like 20 above speed limit. So just to make sure it wasnt stolen I called 131 444 and asked if the car was reported stolen and apparently it wasnt... They finally arrived in marion (which was coincidentally where I was going anyway) and then after stalling car like 10 times they finally parked and I right next to them. Not sure what was going on there, maybe she borrowed car from her kid or something... It probably wasnt stolen, but I just did what every Skyline driver would do cause there's just too many of them being stolen around here lol...

Here are pics...

Spotted a silver Stag with gold rims on North Terrace today. Plates were rr450 or something.

Then a custom bike with the plates "GR8 SHG"

Ha, thats Jason's bike. He's def got a big ego :P What you saw was his black Suzuki M109R cruiser. Big heavy f**kers they are, like riding an aircraft carrier.

Funny plate, but problem is that he's gay! :)

You do realise they were probably shitting themselves because some bloke was chasing them? They probably thought YOU were going to carjack THEM!! lol

The number plate is a new one, meaning the car is also new, so maybe they're still trying to get used to it...my Dad's 62 and drives a Legnum VR-4, so stranger things have happened :P

Good parking...

Been spotting a blue gemmi wagon for the past couple of months outside Carls mums place. Saw it coming off the truck and haven't seen it moving since, drove past in my 180 Carl and I didn't know if it was you outside, so kept going.

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
