I don't own one (yet) but a few mates have called them "Mummy's boys' cars" when the discussions ventured into cars. A couple of them would also mention how Supra's were better ... fans for the fnf movies :D

RE the top gear episode - I'm fairly sure the comment wasn't directed at Skylines but at GT2's (or a similar Porsche). It was the episode where they enter into the 24h race with a diesel BMW to use up their "bio fuel" they planted in the previous season.

I think this is it -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eZt9_7VV-I

EDIT--Wrong episode. It was the Alpha Romeo's Episode ->

--/EDIT

From memory, they've used a Skyline in the episode where:

1. They try to find the 'best' handling car ->

2. They drag it against a Mcleran :) ->

And of course the R35 in the near past racing the bullet train in Japan.

Sorry for venturing a little off topic :)

best is when people follow the media, skylines are hoon cars, only p platers and dikheads drive skylines etc, makes me laugh, but i do have to agree, the majority of people around my area, brighton are dikheads. no matter what cars.

but some things ive had said at my c34 stagea:

-nice looking tarago, but i dont like vans, especially FWD ones

-why do you drive a volvo for?

-why put an exhaust on a volvo for?

-why does your volvo sound like it has a turbo?

and sometimes when i get a little tooo lead footed and ride sidewards spinning the rear wheels, people just look at me sidewards and go wtf????? and after that when i pull up at the servo they ask me how i can do burnouts in a FWD 4cyl VOLVO!!!!!

sometimes i go to bed so sad knowing that there are people out there that think, every station wagon is either a volvo or a holden...... :) (99% all think its a f*kIN VULVA!!!!)

Scenario 1:

Was waiting for RAC with a guy at work because his Civic has broken down & we can't get it moving so I called RAC, when they arrived, after a bit of fault finding...

RAC guy: "You need to get this car towed, so is there 2 passengers?"

Me: "No, I'm just hanging around, my car is over there..."

RAC guy: "What car do you drive"

Me: "Nissan Skyline..."

RAC guy: "Do you still have any points left on your license?"

Scenario 2:

Went to a friend's house for lan... his younger bother's friend called & said he needed someone to pick him up & transport his computer over. So I went there with the younger bother, while we were loading his computer to the car that kid's mother came out... the following conversion was in Mandarin but the context of it was basically:

His mum: "Be careful in the car, those hoons with their illegal cars like to drive fast & dangerous..."

At that point I just got really annoyed as she pretty much just said that right in front of me...

Me: "For your information I've a better driving record then you! Not a single traffic infringement so far..."

<she look at me in horror, probably not used to people talking back to her... probably a traditional Chinese parent, but I couldn't care less & I could give to rat's ass if I pissed her off...>

Me: "Plus I don't hog up the right lane while driving 10 to 20 under & I ACTUALLY use my indicator when turning"

Me: "If you don't want me to take him, why don't you take him over there yourself?"

<points to the car on their driveway>

That shut her up real good.

I was talking with a guy the other day, just parking lot chat, and I said my car was headed back to the states as a racecar (unable to be titled for street use) and he said,"They don't allow Skylines in the States because they have too much torque." I just said I had to get going, and have a nice day.

Well I have this Car.jpg as my avatar on a anime BT site for which I download most of my animes from... recently I got a message from someone on the site & this is what he said:

Friend 2: Whatever dickhead.. Keep dreaming.

If ur car can't better 12seconds down the 1/4mile ur not worth my time nor fuel.

Have fun with ur shitbox

Skinny Vee: f**k ur a retard already f**kn told u my f**kn car is real. and straight out when u guys get ur heads outta the ground and realise how shit your cars are then f**kn come back and offer me out straight out. hahaha sad kunts skylines cant even flick out sideways. lame. heard of rear wheel drives? . thats a real car

Skinny Vee: annd P.s even Caleb has better style than u matty fag, his skyline and some shit colour. atleast hes got a white one. f**kn better than ur trash can

*proceed with more threats/arguments not related to cars*

I went with my Mrs to go look at a second hand car from a private selle( which she ended up not buying and got a brand new Micra) I begged her to buy an S15 but she said she over driving imports after the last 3 she's had

And the guy selling the car asked me where we live and if we drove to his house

I said yeah my cars over there pointing to the R32.

He said oh the mazda.

How can you get it confused with a Mazda? Which Mazda does it even closely resemble?

You think skylines are bad. You get filthy looks off all kinds of people in my mates S2000 on the reg.

Can confirm this from when I used to own one. That being said, you those looks from atleast one niche of society when you own a sport car. I get filthy looks from commodore bogans every time I take the skyline out. Also had a few in the 350z.

Picked my uncle up from the airport was in the 32 he says actually these motors are designed from the buick 3.8 v6 commo motor and i didnt even bother telling him that this is a straight 6 people like that you cant tell. even owned a vs berlina

  • 2 weeks later...

When I owned my first skyline (R34Gt-t) I went to a party and a mate of mine who I hadn't seen in ages asked me what car i had, so i told him and to my disgust said:

"no point in owning a skyline unless its a 'GTR'"

I rebutted by saying that there are Gtsts that can maul GTRs (worked obviously) and that the later is almost twice as expensive to buy let alone ensure, anwhoo the argument kept going

until he said he had to leave and we both walked outside, I never thought along the whole hour length of the argument to ask him what car he drove....

..S14..

I laughed shook my head and patted the bonnet of my car..

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
