Yeh i agree with u there skylines do suck:rolleyes:

Nahh seriously, they have big engines(in jap terms), they have turbos, there are alot of em around, they are easy to squeeze extra hp out of, they are relatively easy to work on and most of all they are well built.

U can do 200k on the engine and it should still run damn well unless u work the hell outta them and up the boost too much.

Y do u think the vl did so well over here?? all the same reasons

also the longest thread has been over 200 pages so it'll be very hard to beat that.

I will beat it dont you worry...

if people love them right about them I am personally attracted to the rear lights however it is funny how a few other companies have started producing cars with round tail lights!!!!1

and also the new ford is it that looks similar to the r34.....

they rock simply because they do...

love the styling...

love the power...

love the modability... (its a word damn it!!)

love the feeling u get when u first sit in one...

love the feeling i get when i sit in it every other time...

love the fact that when i see another skyliner they all show some sort of recognition no matter if theres is bigger and better (except when u come across an R31 or :D)

love the respect that they demand and get...

i love the car.

this doesnt just go for skylines but I like the fact that they(imports) seem to be far ahead technology wise compared to other cars...tell me what other 93 model and lower has 4 wheel streering abs all eletrics etc it seems as though only today other companies are making cars to this standard...?? correct me if im wrong

Not to mention what ford/holden which is a early 90 model that has a twin cam 24 valve 6 cyclinder engine.

Hey I think ford have just done it.. :D

10 years later.

Holden are behind the times still though.

That new 4ltr Turbo XR6 is going to get up and move.

Hey has any one seen the brochure book type thing ford sends ppls who have bought a ford before.

New XR looks quite nice I think.Nice lump in the bonnet, nice head lights.. Still they should have done this years ago.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Marek · Posted

      Here's the link: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6642/misc/G49?frame_no=WGNC34-137122 What you think about it? The same product i found on nengun: https://www.nengun.com/oem/parts/40567/MiPwn5qAMfCfmpxHNDnwn5q9MDAx8J-QiW9sZC1qcC0xMTAtRzQ5LS0wMDE/Floor+Carpet+%2F+Mat+2/0688339eba149c19 Bot i have spoken to 😅 ensured me, that mats are 100% original, oem product. I have my doubts. I also heard what you mentioned, that nengun often offers items that are actual not available... On the other hand mats i found on japanese yahoo or ebay are in poor condition and still quite expensive so i'd rather wait for some better offers. My location - Poland. We literaly don't have ANY market for used Stagea parts so need to search outside Europe.

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      By sinn3r · Posted

      You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Marek · Posted

      Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
