Nope unfortunately not. Have decided I shall be parting my car out (have allready began selling one or two things). At this point in time the money invested into that car can be better used so it has to be done. Never thought this day would come to be honest lol.

And yes Chris, you can have my title :P

Parting out, don't do it, it's a trick

Keep it just stop spending money :P

Haha nah. I've had my fun with it and done most of the thing I wanted to do with it.

I'm about to build a house and that money from parting out the Skyline will go a long way in the first twelve months while Stacey finishes her final year of uni.

Once she starts her proper job I will look into getting another car.

Yeah thats fair enough. I'm going to head out west for a bit next year to save for a house. I've got a little bit of savings so far but its next to nothing compared to what I need.

I might be keen on some parts when it comes time to sell anyway :)

True shit Phil? What are you looking at going on with if you dont mind me asking?

I'll get an 09 R6 to get me by for the next year and then down the track who knows. If I was to get another import than an R34 GTR would be on the cards but not sure if I want another Skyline.

I wouldn't mind building an RX7 one day, but not as my main car.

A 335i/M3 is most likely what I will go to. After driving dad's 7 speed DCT E92 335i around nothing else has compared. It will all come down to how well we do with repayments in the first 24 months for the house. Will allow me to calculate a bit better on how much I can spend on another car.

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance

      Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
