Thanks

I just wished it said GTR in the back of the Skyline and that I could afford to keep 'em both.

the S15 looks far better tho

Agree. It pulls better too
Not really fair to compare the two as the Skyline is close to stock and the S15 is not very stock.

But I do think that I could pull of a better 1/4mile time in the Skyline as I got grip in all gears.
I have to really provoce the car to break traction in first.
Can't be done in a straight line by just hitting full throttle and wait for boost like in the S15
Fast shifts near redline to second doesn't break traction either.

I like both cars, but the S15 is so much more fun to drive.
I don't even remember how a stockish S15 felt like to drive so a similar modified Skyline could be more fun.... But it still wouldn't look as good

Thanks. the old pics didn't do the car justice

Thanks. I didn't take theses pics myself. It was a friend of mine with a Canon Eos350D with some extra stuff on it.

To bad you can't really see City hall which is in front of the car. Too far away and it was too dark. You can see the upper part of the tower a little though. Pretty cool building. Especially seen from the water.

Great open shutter pics with some filter to bring out the STARS... should have switched on the lights as well so as the car will be sparkling... LOL

 

[Yakozan]

Well as I haven't really done anything to my S15 and it's still in the garage waiting for the Skyline to sell (will put up an add this weekend).
I e-mailed the top blokes at perfect-run for some Nismo smoked side repeaters and an Apexi Power intake
Gonna change brake-fluid, gearbox oil, engine oil and filter when those parts arrive. And also fit my brake speed bleeders

Haven't done any work on the cars for the whole winter.
Well some on the VW as that started to fall apart lol. Changed a suspension arm and cleaned the air filter

What you getting to replace the Skyline?

 

[Yakozan]

What you getting to replace the Skyline?

Nothing planned for me personally.
Will use the money to pay off some loans to my dad. It should cover close to everything so I just have a loan on the appartment from the bank.

But I might replace the S15 next year with something cheaper as I'm planning on getting some education done.

I'll have to see how things progress as I go

 

[Topper]

Good luck with the sale :thumbs:

 

[Yakozan]

changed engine oil and filter today
Also fitted my Nismo smoked side repeaters and Apexi power intake.

had the car on a lift when I was changing oil and looked around under it.
I don't know what it is with Jap imports. But both my ones look very nice underneith. Not a spot of rust anywhere. Looked very clean.

I'll post some pics later.

 

[Yakozan]

Pics as promised
Gonna swing by Airtune and pick up some gearbox and brake oil sometime this week.
