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.

by any chance did you buy it from nagoya motors?

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
