How many faithful skyline owners have just had or are about to have exams??

I just finished my exams for semester 1 of my forth and final year of uni and gees it feels good. I found that the best way to clear the head after studying all night was to grab the car keys around 11.30pm and take a half hour cruise before bed. I believe this made me perform better the next morning whilst writing for 3 hours lol. Anyway does anyone else have any tips for those that are in the middle of the terrible exam revision period???

well i just found out i passed my CPA taxation exam. so pretty happy.

the only tip i have is that if you dont feel like studying, dont. you wont get any benefit just sitting there staring at a book. You really have to be in the 'mood' if thats ever possible :(

After having the hardest two exams of my life last week (3rd year fluid mechanics and thermodynamics) I found it really relaxing to lay a big fat smokey burnout as i left the carpark at caulfield race course.

Didnt help me get any smarter, but boy did it make me feel like a rebel that just didnt care.

last one tomorrow :) i should be in bed... unfortunately the skyline is in for some panel work (got rammed up arse) so theres no stress relief available there :D

I managed to learn Management 101 in 3 days, I was just lucky they asked stuff on the exam that i actually knew though.

hahahahaha... man, the caulfield race course carpark has officially screwed my suspension... sOOo many half metre deep pot holes and the traffic is shocking... can take hours to leave the stupid oval...

whenever i exit, i routinely scrape the sh*t outta my front bar and do exactly ditto as what you wrote above... hahaha... unintentionally of course...

i've finished my exams for this semester, its sucks now, i'm actually bored already!!

The only thing about drinking red bull/V is its a bitch to get yourself of it afterwards. 10 cans of redbull in 5 days and then a week of no red bull produces some magic headaches!

      I honestly wouldn’t bother with this. They don’t hold up under any serious strain. Get the Blackline (Chinese fake Quaife) if anything, as it’s reported to perform pretty well.

      Asking where to source parts

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      For future reference, I believe all that Amayama does is act as a middleman between you and Nissan. Go to your local dealership, ask nicely for a parts account (I get 15% off with mine) and you'll get better pricing. Cheers,

      V35 Skyline possible engine swaps?

      By Blakeo · Posted

      Hi guys, I have a 2005 V35 skyline with the vq35de.  It is a drift car and has been stripped, its now running a standalone ECU and a body harness. Dash everything has been changed to a digital dash controlled by ecu.  The vq35de has been great, very reliable but wanting more HP atm the 35de is making 228rwhp. I'd like to be making about 350rwhp. From my research it looks like a vq25det lightly modified could be a good engine to swap in. I understand the CD trans will bolt up right to the vq25det with a 35de sump used.  My only issue is a wiring harness/ecu to control the vq25det, from what i've found the ecu is a lot different to the vq35de so my plugin for the 35de will not work. Is there any potential to use the vq35de wiring harness and modify as necessary to retain the plugin ecu?  Keen to hear what you guys think, or am I best off to chuck on a cheap turbo kit on the 35de and see how long it lasts.

      Oh sorry Justin! I was racking my brain trying to remember names, not sure why I associated “Adam” with 7tune! I’m good, been away from Skylines for over a decade, got family and kids now. Just getting back into owning a 32 but it’s a whole different world now… tax is higher and tech is better.

      Who's Adam? Hehe 😁All good mate, it's Justin. Been good! And you? The HCR32 is looking sweet by the way! Love the very neat Nav install.  I would love to get one but I'm at a crossroads right now and can't commit to another car.
