Damn that sucks .... not the Ken Style .... on the upside looks like they didn't get your rear quarter panel, tail light nor exhaust tip!

But they did. Tail light is cracked, exhaust is bent and rear quarter panel is warped.

Poor girl who hit me doesn't have insurance.

Looks like i'll be driving the 4x4 for a while.

Nice pic of the car on a overcast day which made the silver look rather nice

other pics are of the new track rims with toyo R888s 245/40 R18 on 18 x 9.5 + 20 track rims

Nicely done-up V, mate.

^^^ VERY nice ride mate!

I fitted Brembos, StopTech 330mm floating rotors and ProjectMu pads yesterday .... HUGE upgrade from the crappy brakes it had before (it is an 03 Premium auto, so had no Brembos).

LOL im actually driving the cls350 as a work car atm. never really ntoiced it. lol but i can guarantee you that the v36 interior is NO match for the merc.

V36 sedans are heaps better than V35 sedans. But compare to that Mercedes-Benz, it's another world. I sat in that CLS350 for 3 minutes and it's worth every penny of the price.

On side note, the photo is actually funny, seeing there are two steering wheels in it. Imagine if there are two drivers, one Japanese and one European. :down:

I've had a few people say the front looks like a Merc, and the side looks like a BMW 5 series... dunno about the back end though?

Thanks for the comments guys, covered 1,800km in it already (drove it back from Sydney to Melbourne virtually non-stop), very impressed with the power and had a lot of positive comments about it from everyone who saw it, most had no idea what it was :)

One thing I like about this Skyline is you don't get too many idiots wanting to race, one of the things I hate most about the R34.

    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
