Hey all,

I picked up the Skyline from Southampton today, and I have to say Im frikin well impressed!

For the money it's cost me I've got a bit of a minter I think, I'll post some piccies up later after converting them to something a little more readable (BMP camera!).

I have completly decided against converting any of the afterburners to fogs, as these are way to cool as they are.
I'm sure I have seen purfectly flat rear fog lights somewhere (they just stick on with a cable) anyone else seen these?

Anyway must go LFC's just kicking off.

P.S. thanks to everyone for the advice given whilst buying.

Hi m8, Congratulations on owning a Skyline.
Just thought Id say, I have a couple of switches, on my rear lights, so you have the four lights working as normal, then when its MOT time, flick the switches, and hey presto, you have just 2 lights and foggers too...
Id tell you how its done, but im not sure myself, as it was already done on the car when I got it.

excellent

Glad you're happy with it mate. It's the red one isn't it? Looked very nice that did.

i just hung my fog from under the bumper for the mot + sva, then unclipped the wires, and un screwed the light and put it in the compartment where the jack is... no marks on the car and i have it if i need it...

Bit of a crappy digicam, but it does the job

Note the piccie of the misses getting a little confused and sitting in the wrong seat, I'm going to have to explain things to her...

 

[MattPayne]

looks good... how soon will it be before its on the road?? are you doing it yourself or are you getting a company to sort it out?

My car arrived on the Asian Emporer too...

 

[zeroreality]

I guess your's was as dusty as mine then...

I'm doing the work myself, (I'm totally skint now) so it should be on the road just in time for Xmas ;]

Scared myself shitless on the short, wet leafy bit of road I did drive it on...!

Weird...

Been workin on the car and found the following out, some of which was a complete suprise!

8x17's on the front (splitrims)
9x17's on the rear (eek £££)
Large Apexi air filter...
Front right arch has mud guard at front with a cooler hidden behind!
Left has big hole!!
Can't find my dump valve. (can hear the turbo though)
Hate the arial (up, down, up, down)
Driver window doesn't open, fuses ok, took off door insert, solonoid (or whatever) is clicking when button pressed but nowt happens!)
Couldn't find the battery, then I looked in the BOOT!!!! (is that right) I saw the article by Dan0h, and that was in the front where my water tank is. (I'm a little confused by this)
Found the Jack and tools (soz Moschops, I got mine, not much cop though)
