Why not?

Believe it or not the entire Nissan brand is not devoted to under 25's.

Personally i think its a brilliant move and actually like it. Die hard Skyline lovers will buy it.

what better car to buy when you need a second car for the Mrs, want to head down the coast for a holiday with the kids?

Why not?

The skyline "brand" has been focused on performance/sports cars in the past. Lesser so in the past few years, but the V's are still a luxury sports car or whatever category they fit in.

But the crossfire is a totally different category so I don't think it should be branded a Skyline. Surely they can think of a differnent name?

I'm a die hard skyline lover and wouldn't buy it. I have nothing against it, and think it looks ok, but just not my thing.

Fair enough,

But it does have the same 3.7 engine as the Skyline 370Gt and also the same interior.

With that engine you could easily say its a performance crossover :D.

But i do see your point.

Its listed on the SEVS list, but not confirmed as eligable at this stage. They're selling fro around 3.5m yen at dealers in Japan, so for something that would more than likely walk all over all its competition in pretty much most areas, I think its a bargain.

Just thought I would see if there is anyone out there looking to bring in the Skyline Crossover??

Cheers,

G'day Mark,

I'm interested but at this stage would not want to be a test car (wait 12 month).

Are you actually proposing anything? :)

Cheers

... I think its a bargain.

I did test drive of x1 the other day, reasonable performance model with all 'essential' features would set you back around $80-90K.. It still would not be nowhere near Crossover in terms of performance.. Interior feels cheaper in BMW as well.

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.

      Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
