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.

    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
