I am very much in the same boat as merli... in my area Lines arent too common, the chicks seem to like a change from the commodores etc.

My mates usually do most of the talking about my car for me. I just play it down.

But then again my current love interest is a ricer like me and she has a louder stereo and exhaust too... :)

Which is good i feel that it is more based on the people we are not the cars we drive.

If i did have a skyline i'd be like, "alright pet? fancy a ride? you'll get a shag on the back seat too if you're lucky"....

...just kidding, it would be funny though!

hahahahahaaa Novacastrians are cool. No matter what country they are from :)

imo, women typically cannot differentiate one car from another. they are not good with names of cars, specifics of any kind. they don't care about stats, race history, year model, trim package, engine choice, all of that stuff we have created an entire forum about. females typically respond more to HOW the man drives the car, how the car sounds, how it smells, what color it is, the texture of the seats, how it feels. of course, having a sports car helps because it can allow the driver to be sexier. a rusted out ford sedan will not cut it. i think a typical female response to the skyline would be that it looks like a honda or toyota or something other than what it is. if you said "oh. this is a skyline," the woman would not be able to remember that name the following day. were she interested in the man, she would remember his voice tone, how his hands looked, how he smelled, the way he walked to the car, the way he shifted the gears, etc. the car would just be a "vehicle" for the more meaty issues that charm the female.

conversely, some men equate or regard the skyline as higher and more interesting than the female, ie, it replaces or is the female. at least easier to manage. the ideal world would be having both the skyline and the female in harmony.

Jesus...that post scares me :uhh:

What books do you read in your spare time, or do you have a lot of sisters :)

I'm gonna be honest and say that I'm buying a skyline for four reasons, it's quality, price, performance and looks. If my car attracts women, so be it. I work hard, wear decent clothes and do my best to look my best, the car will just compliment that. Skylines get looks, (Commowhores get smoked, then ignored ;)) but most girls aren't that dumb to be with a guy with a cool car if he's got a face like a spanked ass and teeth like a group one winner and thinks deodorant is an optional hygene tool. If so, god damn, he must be hung like a group one winner too!

my two cents

:werd:

hahaha your all liars

maybe the 25yo+ skyline owners done get girls/ or atleast use the skyline a little to get them

but being 18 and driving a skyline, i get girls asking if they can get in when i stop at lights and have a few extra numbers on my phone cos of the line ;)

I know they are there for the line, but i dont care, females will be females they use us all in some way

I picked up my gf with my R31 wagon but now i have an R32 and my gf hates it.

"Its too bumpy"

"Its too noisy"

"The airconditioning doesnt work"

"I dont like the whooosh sound"

"It only has a tape player"

"You always drive with the windows down"

But i still love her. Just

woman does better in our car than i do

shes always getting guys trying to race her and wanting her number when shes out in the car

guys dont believe her either when she tells them she drives a skyline

she knows what shes on about though (she knows model series etc)

i wish i did as well as she did ;)

Woah, there are so many of you that are turning girls down because they are interested in your car.

At the end of the day, you don't need to have a relationship with them! If they are fit, attractive and the right age for you then get a shag out of them - just remember to wear a johnny!

Seriously, i've just come out of a year long relationship and half of that time my GF was travelling. When i was working in the US last summer i could have had so much fun, but i stayed faithful to my GF. What did that get me? A very boring relationship with a girl that was too different from me.

I don't want another relationship until i'm about 25, or until i meet a girl that really turns my head. Until then i just want to have fun.

Be young while you're still young.

when your early at a party eveyone that walks in after you wants to know who owns the skyline the 200sx, the Rex etc...thats parked on the street! it has to count for something when your 17- 25 with a hot car.. they think...mmmm....hard worker...good job...drug dealer...lol hahaah

    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
    • Shock tower brace is in +5Kw....LOL
