Lovely car and great plate. I remember sitting in one at a motor show and thinking what an amazing driving position it had.I've now completed the suspension refurb/upgrade on my Skyline - Ohlins DFV coilovers, every ball joint replaced with new OEM and every bush replaced with either Nismo or SuperPro.

Not yet had chance to put it through its paces but was recommended to me by the indy Porsche dudes I use - apparently these are a favourite with those with transaxles for both looks and ability 
Main problem, for me, is that the USB is not iPhone compatible so there's no charging and its always a connection via Bluetooth for calls and audio. BT is never quite as good as a wired connection, and not being able to charge the phone on the go is a pain. Also, the screen on the radio doesn't link to whatever's being played on the phone. Only found this out after I tried several cables to understand why it wouldn't connect, and then looked in the instruction book (I'll hand in my card on the way out...) to find this info buried in the text.
On top of that, I'm not convinced the sound quality is much better either.
So, looks great, performs OK, not cheap, others are probably better value for money. Lets call it German

Mine is back after a complete service, new fluids and general good looking at and ready for the summer season.
A new regulator was fitted as part of the service and it now starts and runs better than I can ever recall.
I have owned it 11 years and am toying with the idea of changing it, but it will be hard to see it go.
