Well i live here in USA, so finding a wrecked Skyline anywhere here is as rare as finding one on the road. They dont keep Skyline parts here in stock so i wouldnt even know where to look over here. Im pickin up a GTS-T R32 so i was just curious to see if they had any available. So if the ones above wont fit a GTS-T, any ideas where to pick a set up?

This one's goin for 2500 yen which is about AU$33. The seller claims there's small cracks n stuff on it, and that they started out as orange ones, but they were since cleared.

That must mean there's a way to make em clear.

the little repeaters (square bulge on the side) are orange.
That's what came on the higher spec models from 1989-1991. After 1991 the same spec car got a full orange signal, and the lower spec one retained the clear with orange bulge.

cheers for that funkymonkey.

mines an early one with lots of factory options. i dont see many like mine around, probably cause others may have been changed to orange for the 'GTR look' that was mensioned earier

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
