Skyline=overhyped overpriced crap

 

i never said they werent fun and didnt perform well!

 

^pwn3d

 

wow you guys get that excited over a skyline.. man they are everywhere in Australia... guess thats the advantage of only 2 car manufacturers int eh country.. everything else is imported meking lots available...

you can get anything from the basic 2w dr to the top of the line 4w dr GODZILLA if you haev the cash..

I once saw one of them smoke all 4 wheels through 1st, 2nd and into 3rd taking off up the street... friggin amazing... it was chasing after a ferrari.. ha ha

I even had a skyline wagon before moving here.. rb30 engine.. bullet proof motors.... stick a t03 on the side and those will run low 12s all day long

 

wha there's a wagon with a rb30 motor? never heard of it! PICS YO!

 

I will see if I have some...
the rb30 non turbo motor is so common.. it is even in the GMH (holden) commodores.. early ones that came with a t03 turbo factory... just do a search online..

here are a couple opf pics...

 

holy crap, the first pic is a skyline? haha, good stuff..i've seen the other skylines(the other pics) but that first pic is t3h wIn....i was thinking that it was gonna be a wagon skyline like the wrx wagon. that be a skyline to see!

 

nice...

 

oO...i've only seen several skyline tailight conversions...thas about it...

 

I remember us talking about this the first time i got to firestone really early, and you were there! That was before you figured out i was stupid as a brick!!!!

what is "motorex"

 

its a company or how ever you want to put it that imports and registers GT-Rs to the USA.

 

so if i was to order a Spec C from Japan i'd have to go through some other crap?

 

^^for a car maybe, but for swap not really

 

like I said let me look through my pics or email my sister in Australia.. she had a 86 wagon and mine was like an 82 or something... I think I may have a pic somewhere... my buddy and I did an rb26dett coversion into a 76 skyline coupe with custom, bodywork, first microtech computer in australia for that engine, installed a sunroof and dropped in a 300z rear end.... will post soem pics tomorow as they are on my work computer...

 

This was spotted at the Midway that weekend

 

yea...i think it was that one...for sure it was that one...

yeah, the only thing that i have read about motorex is that they will convert it, give it a vin, and make it street legal for the low low price of about 25g's. don't know how accurate this is, but i went to their site a while back, and they can do it, since as far as i know, they're the only company that has done extensive crash tests on it. and their site won't go into details, but they have to strip the car, cut some stuff out, weld it back together, and piece it back together. once again, don't really know how accurate.

 

come to cali and seee everything.....even dealerships.....

 

A Skyline in MN? I saw something even rarer: A Ford GT in Eau Claire!

I tried to take a pic with my phone but was shifting in rush-hour traffic (three cars at a stop sign).

Not a loss though. It was black. Yeech!
