Just picked up my first skyline, an 87 R31 Silhouette Series 1  im soo happy to get working in this, not a qualified mech, but its been a dream to work on a car... any help much appreciated on the way!

Allright soo this was a barn find, and grass was growing through it ?, finally got it started, and found coolant leaking everywhere, from just under the plenum. Coroded busted fittings.
