In my 1st attempt to create the longest thread in history on this site. whats so good about a skyline. I know my reasons but what are your reasons?

[DLuded]

one reason is the noise they make when spooling. the sucking noise you can here. also the longest thread has been over 200 pages so it'll be very hard to beat that.

They are strong and don't break easily.....

[Boostzor]

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

[Pva_Glue]

Nothin...

I just drive one to get point A to B

cheers

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.....

[PranK]

skylines rock!

dunno why really...

skylines rock!

(oh.... i guess 180's do too... )

[Cubes]

They are over engineered.

Excellent Brakes.. Excellent Gearbox Feel..

[Cubes]

Oh another 1..

This has been the cheapest car to maintain.

I havn't had to repair one thing.. Appart from the usual service stuff i.e cam belt/waterpump at 100k...

[Cubes]

And Another..

I think they are a bit of a sleeper..

Shock the Hell out of a lot of these V8's.

[inark]

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 )

love the respect that they demand and get...

i love the car.

[akeenan]

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

[Cubes]

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..

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.

[devlsh]

Hey i have seen the ford brochure, i got one in the mail! i think ford totally out done holden this time, the new VY commonwhore is just down right UGLY , i also agree with akeenan the new BA XR does look similar to an R34! and by the way i like skylines cos there a gr8 car to cruise in & they draw attention(even stock ones turn heads) and of course the chicks love them! :innocent:

the roar of the engine as you take it through its rev range. no wonder my petrol bills are so high

Well, I dont actually have a Skyline, so the running costs are zero. It does not take up any room, requires no maintenance, or make any noise at all. The Skyline that I do not yet have is the perfect car.

[B-Man]

The sexy as hell rear tail lights demand RESPECT !!!!

always someone has something negative to say
