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

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
