My New Nissan Skyline GT-R
Well, new to me!
There's actually a fair bit of back seat room for what kind of car this is. That is with the drivers seat all the way back
You think your wheels are JDM?
Yeah, I got kanji on mine
Yeah, it's dirty. The glue along the top edge of the hood from the "aero strip" is getting yanked today, then I'm giving it a thorough wash, clay bar, polish, and 2 or 3 coats of wax And yeah, I know it needs new tires as well. 2 weeks when I get my next cheque and I'm getting some new AVS-ES100.

I'm getting a head unit for it today. Japanese head units don't pick up the full range of FM signals we get over here, plus they're in Japanese, so most are yanked before they get shipped over.
Past that I'm hoping for new tires, carbon trunk/hood, downpipes, test pipe, triple pod of DEFI gauges (stock boost gauge is horribly inaccurate and the oil pressure gauge never works
) and to get the AC converted from R12 to R134a by the end of the summer.

Re: My New Nissan Skyline GT-R (Scotty Dosent Know)
I thought it was spelled cheque everywhere, I guess I'm just a Canadian homebody
Here's another cool tidbit: The front torque meter!
Not everyone knows this, but GT-R's are full time RWD, untill the back tires slip at which point power is sent to the front wheels. All the traction advantage of AWD without the drivetrain loss on the top end! This gauge actually shows how much power is going to the front! And do you think Nissan wanted these cars to be modded? The car only makes 36 kg-m of torque, and the gauge goes to 50
