My new daily driver!

[jz*supra]

Its a 1989 Skyline GTR!
74000 KM, Power everything, completely stock, 3 small 1/2" dents on the passenger side, the interior is absolutely FLAWLESS! Cleanest JDM car i have ever seen. There is no kirb rash on any of the rims.

^^ The ugly fog lights were taken off.

This is the full car ad on the importers site.

I paid $13,000 Canadian.
I bought the GTR because it's AWD and i needed something that could hook up in snow and ice.

The supra also aint much of a daily driver anymore. More of a weekend cruiser/ track machine.
It currently runs 12.6X's at 116MPH. It has not had a final tune and is running 18 psi. I recently swapped diff's and could only manage 2.0 60ft times wich realy hurt my time.

wish i had a skyline for a daily driver.....

why not the turbo a or the cresta? they both seem like nice cars.

Let's trade lives yeah?

Nice daily driver man. Sometimes I just love living in Canada!

 

[bmoss85]

Nice engine bay! Other than that it looks like an early eighties celica with a wing

I think that's half the appeal for me. Same with the Mk3, you've got to love it for what it is instead of comparing it with today's styling trends. The mk4 definitely got the love when it comes to a timeless design, but there are all kinds of different appeal.

Congrats on the new driver! I'm counting down until the mod bug hits

Awesome DD! That would be so sweet to have one of those...... But Noooo, we have emissions and crash testing, lol. Nice car though, seriously!

EDIT: Not that Canada doesn't have crash testing and emissions, but the fact remains that the U.S. government won't let us have that car, and many others.......

jz*supra, glad I was able to hook you up with the car

If anyone wants the Cresta, it's sitting at my house, I must sell to repair my house.

 

[suprakid24]

wow awesome DD, congrats on the car

 

[suprarx7nut]

You lucky SOB

Congrats on a fine DD choice.

damn, some one owning a skyline outside of japan, maybe i should gut mine out and sell you my parts.

 

[jz*supra]

Thanks guys.
I recentlty took the car on a 3500km road trip thru bc. The car handles amazing. It easily doubled posted speeds for corners. I even slowly worked up to 85 Km/h around posted 30 km/h hair pins! It did however destroy a set of potenza re-01 that were 40-50%.
I wish i could find a skyline forum half as good as supramania tho.

Does anyone now fluid capacities or a site that has them posted?
I want to swap every fluid but it is quite pricey and i would rather not buy more than i need.

i like the classic lines of the 32. simple body style. i hear the RB26 and awd systems aren't as great as the newer models, but i bet it makes a nice daily lol

have fun taking off the turbos if you ever have to remove them
