just got my car 3 days ago and i just got to drive it today my first time behind the wheel of a skyline(not in a video game) . and i loved it verry much corners great breaks are just top notch. uphill was no problem for this car much better then the toyota hiace i use to drive :yucky: got it cuz it had loads of room for my wife and i plus our 3 kids. but now we only have 2 kids so we dont need all that room so SKYLINE IT IS!:thumbsup:

any how im on my L's yes my L's so my father inlaw had to come with me but not before snaging my keys and speending around by himself. big grin on his face all he could tell me was "verry zippy all it needs is a turbo". so i had my drive and WOW :blush: this car is 1000 times better then the hiace i was luging my wife and kids around in. now i just have to go for a drive with the wife and kids see what the kids have to say.

im verry happy i bought this skyline my wife has said she has ben replaced but its cool i will let the car and my wife fight it out :starwars:

Am I the only one that is finding that sentence a bit strange?

i thought i covered that im sorry our kids are all adopted 2 of them are brother and sister. we adopted them from there parents via private agrement and a few months ago the boy wanted to go home. so we sent him back to QLD to live with his mother and we still have the 2 girls age 14 and 15 the boy was 13.

nothing bad happened to him sorry i forgot to leave that out the boy is just fine. his mom has told us when we talked to her last he was happy and and glad to be back with her

This sounds like one of those logic and deduction questions you get on a maths test. Whoops, just read you're from Tasmania...possible the brother and sister are actually your brother and sister? :P

haha no its cool i laughed so no harm done... but maybe i could sell my soul for a vspec hmmm nah cuz i cant drive stick lol

no birds we are all from QLD.... well not me but yea the kids are and my wife is from SA im from california but i consider myself from good ol QLD :D

Hahaha this thread is halarious.

Next highly personel question.

Why are you on your learners when you seem to be of mature age? (Is that the correct way to say it without offending some one? Gotta be politically correct nowadays.)

well my life is more interesting then a stock N/A R34 4 door... maybe not but idk

PM-R33 i never got my licance in america i had a permit when i was 16 but that was about it im 27now. my dad got into a bad accedent on his motor bike and almost lost his leg. this is going back to 1998 1 day out of the hospital him and my older brother are on the freeway my brother is driveing. scared the shit out of my dad so he never tought us

lame i know but all my friends have there own cars so i have never needed to drive

it's like one door closes and three more open....

dude you sound like a crazy mofo and I probably know a little more about your life than I wanted to but ... for what it's worth - "Welcome to SAU"

Hahaha awesome thread!

Welcome to sau mate. I'm guessing 4 door? which model? You're gonna have a blast. From what I understand/remember, you don't have to go through all the pain-in-the-arse learning and p-plate stages if you're above a certain age?

Maybe you'll get that vspec sooner than you think (don't think they come in auto tho :P)

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
