Body looks ok, would have to see it up close to be sure.

A nice straight shell is always worth a bit, and good to have.

Fire damage looks superficial, no real damage, weird though it looks like someone made it run again, coilpacks, blue hoses etc, no soot on them.

Well.. Today marks one year with my liner! :O and might I add, what a great year it's been. Meeting heaps of great people that also share that rb passion! :yes:

How she was when she arrived into my hands.

Lots of small changes along the way. It has been a lot of fun. Lot's of learning to be had and plenty more to come. It's funny how the more you learn the more you realise you really know nothing at all haha :/

I'm pretty happy with how things are panning out. Big performance mod to come in the very near future :woot:

And some plans I have that are purely cosmetic. Then hopefully the spending might slow down a little.... :whistling:

It's been a good one and I'm looking forward to the next :D

Congrats Chris! You have changed her alot for the better in a year. Seems longer :yes: Nice Feeling though isn't it?

My 3rd Skyline Anni was the end of last year.

I bought her an Older Sister as a prezzy. :D

Wow.... i never thought about it, nearly 4 years for me, and i still feel like a newbie to skylines.

But when im working on it, i now know all of the nuts, bolts and screws. I dont have to organize them, i know where they go.

I think the variety ways to mod a Skyline make it one of the most interesting cars ive owned.

Hence the feeling that ive only had a small taste of the magic that is possible.

Man that's crazy. What's the latest news on ETA?

Latest ETA was 3 days ago.

Same as the previous ETA that was 3 weeks ago

And the ETA before that was 6 weeks ago

I think I have been given about 4-5 ETA's and all have not been met.

Huge holdup with paperwork for DOTARS from what they are saying

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
