I don't get your post mate. So you want a Skyline that combines all 3 into one? Kinda a bit similar to my thread...so which is your favourite Skyline?

Those 3 are all of the same genre Kevin > N1

Items of rarity > so one of them already has the prospect of making "appearance money" at a car show on the 29th April.

This "Just Dreamin'" thread is about something that stirs the heart - the passion.

My next "Just Dreamin" post is a puzzle...

I would love another Pic of the following collection...

1960 Ferrari 250GT Bertone

1966 Ford Mustang

1966 Maserati Ghibli

1966 De Tomaso Mangusta

1972 Lotus Esprit

1974 Alfetta GT/GTV

1975 Ducati 860GT

1980 Nikon F3 > F4 > F5 > F6 > D3

1981 De Lorean DMC-12

1986 Seiko Speedmaster

1995 Lamborghini Cala

1999 Bugatti EB218

2002 Maserati Spyder

2002 Alfa Romeo Brera

2008 BMW M1 Homage (Concept)

All of the above; again with a common link perhaps?

Ah yes Chris, now we're in the swing of things :)

A former Dream Pic of mine in October '08 was this...

1) ADM R32 GT-R owned by "gtr_fan"

2) R33 GT-R owned by God_speed

3) R34 GT-R owned by yours truly

4) R35 GT-R (Haltech > Envy Imports)

P1030767.jpg

And the answer to Post #4 above is that genius designer, Giorgetto Giugiaro.

God_speed pointed him out to me a couple of years ago since I once owned that sweet looking '79 Alfetta GTV.

I feel you Terry. I have nothing special, just a normal R33 GTR, but love my Skyline heaps. Wish I had something more rare though. I have tried to do all I can to make it look unique. Guess there's only so much that works on a Skyline so everyone does it. >_<

My friend, there is one thread of commonality that we all acquire quickly here on SAU. And that's the value of the dollar!

Then there's that positive spin-off; and it's called, bang for your buck!

But then, which of the above is the chicken - and which one is the egg?

I too, am not in the same league as Messrs Leno, Fox, Laws or Ashwood to be able to acquire collections.

Any of them can look at a collection of those N1s above and ask each owner, "How much do you want for it?"

And once more, look how old they are (acquiring financial wealth).

According to this thread, I only wish to acquire my next "Dream Pic" :thumbsup:

...so check my next Post!

That's passion for you. Most would only dream of owning a R34 GTR. I think as far as dreams go, you've gone a small part of it completed already. Very powerful words.

No order, just want a set

Favourite - Hands down, 400R, in White :)

Although most on my list after it would kick its arse performance wise, there is just something about the 400R.

It was NISMO's first hypo production type offering,

It was a stroked factory car

It was at a time when everything else out of Japan - production - was part of the 206kw agreements.

The one car i would take over anything else - my Unicorn!!

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday.
