I've been bludging for 7 weeks now :P

I'm right there with you... Savings are no more though :/

Meet on tonight? Need to get paintball deposits for those that are going.

Quick advice time. I currently have a company car with a $250 a month fuel allowsnce whi ch i pay $55 + $6 insurance reduction per week. I can get a car allowance of $150 per week ( so i dont have to pay fbt) i own my car outright. Should i do it? It does mean turning the skyline into a daily but i think it is worth it. Whats everybodies thoughts? Cheerz

My bet would be on no, not worth it. Extra maintenance and depreciation would probably be the killer. Don't forget the hike to your insurance as you are now using your car for business purposes. It would need an accountant to go over it to make sure however. if the $150 a week you would get would cover ALL of your maintenance, fuel, extra insurance and depreciation it would be worth it but I doubt that would happen.

Please note that this does not constitute real financial advise. Go talk to an accountant :P

I only need to drive it to and from work. Once im at work i use any car i want. im worried bout the extra maintance as well.

I use my skyline as a daily, although I have very short trips to work so I don't mind. I just love the feeling of getting into my car after finishing work each day. To each their own though :)

this man knows where its at. my skyline is my quiet comfy A/Ced daily driver....thats what i bought it for.....>_<

My drive to work tho is at least an hour( warner to morooka) i love driving it, will my love go away when im driving it? Thats my biggest concern coz that would suck.

    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same. 
    • I have an elite 2500 running an adapter harness on an rb25de neo r34. I took the butterfly out and removed all that junk. But I also went Plus+t at the same time. The butterfly thing works in reverse to the boost solenoid on the Gtt if that makes sense
    • yeh they are 235/45/17 up front and 255/40/17 in the rears. I still didn't get my answer if i can fit a 18x9 up front. I want to get 4 of this and see if they will fit before committing as they didn't see an 18x8 as an option but there is a 18x9.5 also.   Enkei RS05-RR 18x9 35mm ET 5x114.3 75.0 Bore Matte Gunmetal Wheel
