I recently found this skyline here. And I went to the bank to get a loan. The girl basically put her pen down when I said I was 17.

Do cars like these come up often?

If I were in the market in three months, could I expect to find something along the lines of this thing?

This is my first post to; so hello Skylines Australia :] I read the article in Imports, there are some nice Skylines on this board.

Firstly welcome.

Secondly yeah you should be able to find a GT in a few months. They're not as common as falcadores but it's not like they're really hard to find.

Good luck!

If you want to find some around that price with even lower Km's you should keep an eye on Nagoya Motors, that is if your in the Sydney area.

I recently placed a deposit on a skyline just like yours with 91,800KM's on the clock, and it was only $12,900.

They are constantly importing P plate legal R34's and the ones at the $14,900 mark generally have closer to 50,000KM's on them.

From what I hear around this site, Nagoya Motors is generally trusted as not rewinding odometers, anyone who thinks otherwise let me know.

Not always the dealer that do the rewinding, 10-12 year old car (that is likely to be used as a daily in jap land, not llike a NUR GTR) with 50,000km? rarely.

I see what you mean silver, but they do have some very good quality cars, in great condition at Nagoya Motors, I've seen a whole bunch as i've been flying in and out of the place over the last year while I was looking for a good R34. I've also heard around the forum people saying, base your purchase on condition, not KM's, so even if the KM's arent as low as stated, im pretty sure they aren't far off, or have been maintained very well.

All P platers looking for a skyline should take a look at their online showroom, I wont post up a link cause im not too sure about the rules on external linking on SAU, And im not advertising, I REALLY dont have any association with Nagoya Motors other than as a customer =P

Yeah and if your going by the Odometer you will have to fork out for a 100k service in under 10k.. So your first service is going to be $$$$

^^^ Correct, so if you're buying from a dealer; and before you hand over your hard-earned $$, secure a deal from them that the $100kKm service is included in the price - especially obtainable near the end of a calendar month.

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
