my names justin and i'm soon to buy my first car and i would really like it to be a skyline but there are some isues as you get.

firstly...money skylines would cost a lot of money to run as i would be a daily driver, secondly was it worth it buying a skyline? (i wanna hear some of your storeys), and insurance lol first time driver no previous history etc etc....

so could you please tell me what id be looking at for an R32 or 33 im in sydney...

This is like the 3rd thread this kid has posted which happens to be basically the same questions we have all answered before..

yer LOL soz mate im just heaps like exited bout getting my first car...yer a non turbo it be for my p'z tho, and sorry to annoy u diff

Buy it you have a stable source of income.

Obviously a non-turbo skyline will be cheap.. So it shouldnt cost you much at all.

Damn straight it was worth buying a skyline!!! Been nearly 3 years now and never looked back!!

Insurance - Well since its non - turbo it should be a lot cheaper!! We can not answe this question for you as there are many factors involved. Best to ring insurance company and get a quote..

Enjoy

hey guys,

Sorry hijaked this topic should i start a new one?

Dont buy it, If your on your p's buy a shitbox.

Save for a GTR and piss off the other kids when you buy a r34 first day your full licence.

Non turbo wont be as fun as a turbo or gtr.

I Rekon it wud be mad having a GTR, even tho rollling up on my first day of year 12 in An R32 Would be just as good to see the other kids looking at me continuesly LOL tht wud be Good

Your first mistake is a R32... Unless its off someone whos spent alot of time on it then id go a r33 or r34 not much between them.

R32's often have problems and the worst thing for a p plated is problems.

haha ask anyone with a "loved" r32 .. Your going to need more money than the cost of the car, btw they are going up in price as you cant import all of them any more.

Buy a r34 auto non turbo 4 door .. $10,000 thats 3g more than a turbo r32.. enjoy the worry free drive and dont crash (which you will prob do, touch wood but id say youd have a knock or two)

a non turbo r32 and r33 are in the shitbox range. you can pick one up for around $5,000 and for what they are they do get around better than a corolla, integra etc.

the real problem is when you actually consider turbo'ing your n/a skyline after you get off your p's.

    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
