Hey,

I am tossing up weather to, in the next couple of months, sell the skyline and upgrade to a twin turbo skyline, or do a couple of things to my skyline.

It's an R32 - 1993 model, what I was thinking was painting it yellow?? Any one got any pictures of a yellow R32?

Was also thinking maybe a cooler and some new wheels..

Would dark wheels look good on yellow, or maybe white??

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Scott

mmmmm yellow....yuummmmy :( :( :P

as for your decision, well I think everyone will say to get the GTR cos it's what we'd all kill to own!! If you've got the money, then go for it! But it sounds to me like you're more keen on doing some stuff to your R32 :P i guess only you can decide which way to go.

oh, here's pic of one of those club spec rexes u guys are talking about:

Thanks for the suggestions and photo's... I'm still not to sure what I am going to do..

If I change the colour then i should probably get some new wheels, and a nice big cooler to finish the front, but it's all $$$..

Or I could just get my loan through the business and get the car I really want...

As for the club spec evo's..my brother sold his yellow one a couple of months ago...here's a pic..

hey nvs

if you can get hold of an R32 GT-R then thats definately appealing, but check out what its going to cost to insure first because it may be scary. for example: for me to insure a $10,000 R1 motorbike, the cheapest i can get it is $3900 per year.

gotta say go the R over some yellow paint, wheels and a cooler, because an R is going to be a much bigger step up.

good luck with it mate.

    • If they can dyno them, get them dyno'd, make sure they're not leaking, and if they look okay on the dyno and are performing relatively well, put them in the car.   If they're leaking oil etc, and you feel so inclined, open them up yourself and see what you can do to fix it. The main thing you're trying to do is replace the parts that perish, like seals. You're not attempting to change the valving. You might even be able to find somewhere that has the Tein parts/rebuild kit if you dig hard.
    • Can you also make sure the invoices on the box (And none exist in the boxes) are below our import duty limits... I jest, there's nothing I need to actually purchase and order in. (Unless you can find me a rear diff carrier, brand new, for stupidly cheap, that is for a Toyota Landcruiser, HZJ105R GXL, 2000 year model...)  
    • Murphy strikes again! Nothing at all would have gone wrong if you had the tool kit in the car! You'd have just found the clamp loose the next time you went to touch it...
    • I have been being VERY quiet about what you're alluding to, as it is something that ticks me off... The number of cars from factory that run coil overs is HUGE! Most of them these days do... The other part that annoys me, is people saying "Well all the incabin adjustable suspension is illegal by blah blah blah"... If that's the case, then why can I buy a car brand new that can do it if, FULL STOP in cabin adjustable suspension is illegal...   Also, I could just chuck some aftermarket shocks in my car, throw the stock springs on, after my blue slip, dump my super low springs back in. Same shock and spring style setup... Hell, they could also be the same colour springs etc.     I'm voting, BlueSlipper didn't want to touch the above car for some reason. Whether it be some sort of bias against the car, the owner, them maybe having previously done dodgy shit and now they're being super careful in case they get slapped in the face by the Gumbyment again... Find a new blueslip place.   And can confirm as you had said, yes there are holy bibles of vehicle heights, and all sorts of other suspension stuff. Heck your run of the mill mechanic, and tyre shop has access to all of that stuff. It's how they do wheel alignments...
    • Funny story Heading to Sydney this morning on the HWY there was some slow traffic, so I gave it the beans and midway through my overtaking "power run" I lost all power It seems that I missed a hose clamp,  and the MAF and filter went WiFi To make this more problematic, the little tool kit that lives in the boot, is sitting in the sun room at Goulburn......LOL Luckily for me I found a bit of steel on the side of the road that could be used like a rusty and bent flat head screw driver to tighten it up enough that it got me into Sydney, it is now all tight like a tiger with the aid of a 8mm socket Note to self: Use my brain and double check stuff, and always keep that little tool kit in the car for when I have a brain fart
