-F**ked Air Con (Got quoted >$1k to repair)

-Slight vibrations at idle when stopped at the traffic lights from time to time

-Lifter noise (tap tap tap...)

-Exhaust smells

-Head light cover have that yellow crap.

  • Very subtle rattle when idling
  • Squeeky clutch (on the way in and out)
  • It was doing that boost stall thing but that seems to be cleared up
  • A few pin dents that are turning into rust spots
  • Exhaust is too loud for my tastes
  • It's not a GTR :D

Exhaust smells lol i like that one. Smells good or bad, or just smells?

problem with my skyline is it only has 6 cyliners, not 12 and a prancing horse badge.

We will supaglue another RB to your current one and stick a prancing horse badge on your bonnet - all fixed :D

Smells like something is burnt, due to the new exhaust... thats bad I guess...

    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
    • @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.
    • Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.
    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
