i bought my skyline planning to use it as a daily and do the odd test n tune day or drift night,

have owned it for a year now,

the bloody thing is now off the road with a cage and no interior,

i realised the other day that i could be paying off a house with the amount i spend on my car each month :cool:

there is always something to do to it, inbetween comps it has either been a new radiatoor or oil cooler or p/steering work or this n that, its like a terminal disease, i never intended for it to become a full drift car, even got it booked in to a workshop this week for something then another workshop next week,

someone stop me.

but...

im happy ;)

My 32 was a daily for about 2 years, all mods were done in a weekend so that I could drive it on the Monday again (even the 30 conversion :)).

Now I have a Stag as my daily and the 32 is currently in pieces, putting all the bits on that I have collected over the last 18 months! going to be quite some fun when it's done :D

I hear its a great fertiliser.

for you mind.. now everyone eat up and video it when you do and post it up.

  • 2 months later...

gt-r body conversion! best upgrade on the exterior imo ;)

or just a normal bodykit looks good too lol but the gt-r conversion is a nice way to go and blow your cash

hey mate check out on ebay, theres a full leather rewrapping kit, goes over almost everything.

it goes for around 500-1000 bucks? can't remember.

nice way to do up the interior for a pretty cheap price though.

much cheaper than getting a trimmer to do it all up for you

i got this planned for the future :thumbsup:

    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat 
    • I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
