Got The Cash... Now What To Do...

The Skylines are very nice, but the engines have a nasty knack of blowing up - I know of two sitting in a garage with knackered engines. Both were de-restricted. Unfortunately the Skyline engine in particular doesn't like being driven over 112mph. Since that's the limit over in Jap land, they're not bothered about speeds above that - if you recall, Toyota don't recommend you drive the Tubbies over 130mph for sustained periods. If the engine is strengthened, then I suspect these restrictions can be overcome.

yeh, as base engines their components prolly rnt as strong as toyotas, but with a little work they can be strengthened substantially.

one hting i've heard/read is that the gearbox's rnt up 2 much. they usually get knackered after engine tuning.

Aren't the gear boxes Getrag units? I've heard pretty bad things about these, esp. in the BMW's where they have a tendency to fail spectacularly....

I have to say Kiwi that r32 pic has got to be 100% THE most stunning R32 ive seen to date. Nice one.

It's pretty mint aye, Iv'e meet the fella who owns it a couple of times, his name is Emmo, he is a pretty prominant memener of the wellington branch of SDU. It is REALLY REALLY nice aye. He doesn't really wanna sell it as he is heading overseas for a while and if he doesn't get what he's asking he will gladly put it in storage :)

This car has been a reliable and solid runner with no major problems at all. All the usual wear items have been done e.g. cambelt, idler pulley, bushes etc etc. as and when they have needed it.

The engine is stock standard and the boost has never been raised above the 12lbs it is running as standard.
