Yep... at least it is still a straight-6. You will have a blast.

Hopefully you will get the SL65 as a hand-me-down when he replaces that... :D

Geez, i feel so sorry for you, having to sell your skyline because you have to drive a crappy old 2003 model M3. I'm just glad i don't have to put up with that sort of stuff. My deepest sympathies for you.

But seriously. Good luck to ya, make sure you drive it how it was meant to be driven :wave:

duuuudeee!!! i hate you so much right nyah!! :D

Is she SMG II or 6 speed? Colour? Pics? 19" rims??? :D

That would have to be THE coolest hand-me-down ever. My current car is a hand-me-down too! but it's a '91 Nissan Pulsar hatch, 1.6ltr :( - But i'm stepping up soon as well!

If you're in Melb, make sure you bring her out on a cruise :D

enjoy one of the best engines ever to have graced a performance car :D

Clearly that learning didn't include classes on how to spell though.. but you did learn how to type in an internet forum over the holidays and it was so much fun .. and I could tell all my friends!!!

hey since i am buying my first skylie in janurary r 33 gtst 96 model most likely i was just wondering how fast a standard skylie should run 0 to 100km/h in? how many seconds also i c a lot of people...

mate, you are so full of crap it hurts.. I guess the dream ended before it even begun huh?

Where is this car? You're 12 years old aren't you?

meh lying or not the m3 is not such a great car, we've competed against them a couple of times and kicked their arses with a 33 gtst and teh 31 gtsr.

plus they have the tinniest sounding exhaust I have ever heard.

plus, there's a recall on them to rebuild the engine :D BMW quality eh? NSW Members only: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=52302

or...

"All E46 M3's are now subject to a big end bearing re-call. This entails removing the sump and installing new bearings as well as new bolts and sump gasket. The really funny bit is one size bearing fits all regardless of kilometres travelled. I'm not real sure if this includes the poor bastards that have already had engine changes but I'll bet they are. Glad I didn't pay $130,000.00 plus for such a piece of crap." posted by someone who knows :D

i must agree with you duncan , they are crap . i have seen several put conrods through the side of the block as well as the bearing issue , i guess thats the reason they bust conrods ( they keep drining them with spun big end bearings .

you would expect better when you pay $150k + for a car .

as for just removing the sump and replacing the big end bearings , well what can you say , if the crank is 100% unmarked it maybe ok but in most cases you would have to remove the crank , regrind and use undersise bearings . thats what i would do if it was my car , at the very least pull the crank out , check clearances and if everything is ok then at least linish it .

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
