Not bein funny, but an NA auto R32 can\'t be going to make you rich anyway, can it? Just break it if you can\'t fix it, it\'s probably worth as much in parts, surely? No contest between a TurboII and a Skybus, keep the REX!

I wont sell a car if i\'ve bodged a repair to be honest, i\'ve had it done to me and its not nice! Got skyline sorted today, appears to be just head gasket, i\'ll see how it drives....
No, the skyline wont make me rich, but selling it will seriously help towards the parts for the few little rx7 jobs i need to do!

Good man Karma would bite you in the ass. Just look at My name is Earl! Nice to see your keeping the REX.
I don\'t need to upgrade my stock turbo to beat your ass!

i had to keep it. made the mistake of driving it a few more miles today :) Was lovely, till the alternator belt fell apart. Also, looking underneath it could use a new sill, could do it without one, but i\'m a bit of a perfectionist and i\'d rather buy one to fit. Any ideas?

sorry to revive such an old thread....james, was the skyline white?

dont think you can buy off the shelf, better off getting it professionally patched, they can do a good job so that it does not show.  If you have signs of rust there then please check all the other places as well as i bet there will be something lurking in the shadows.
Cant remember the part number but Halfords stock a belt that is good in size for you alternator, just take yours in and measure it up against a new one.
