I held off driving a family car all throughout my L and P plate times. The skyline was the first car I picked up since I got my fulls and enjoy every minute of it.

Stay safe and enjoy dude, take care of your car and she will take care of you.

Haha the GTR was my first manual, still remember dropping the clutch too hard at the lights and spinning the wheels... Ahhh memories :D

Congrats mate - some helpful advice a friend was given when he bought his skyline and he gave me when I bought mine:

1) don't accelerate around corners

2) don't accelerate around corners

3) don't accelerate around corners

take it easy, they are great cars but they will bite you if you don't respect them. I've seen an R33 written off right in front of me by someone who failed to obey the above rules.

I can highly recommend an advanced driving course, it will get you aquainted with what happens when you lose traction. Besides that, enjoy they are great cars :worship:

      Yeah I also looked at Plazmaman, but, it ended up alot  cheaper getting black ones through EFI when you also added in the delivery cost

      Nice shot! They look super clean. The roof rack delete on the black one is interesting. Would like to see more pictures from different angles. It's subtle but could make quite a difference to how the car looks in profile.
