[Noodle_Soup]

Hey guys, My name is Ben, i live in Cornwall and have just bought an s12.
Wow how much did that sound like an intro to an AA meeting?lol

dunno if you guys can help, i am in need of a pair of front wings for my 12. as she has been parked in a hedge for the last 18 or so months, she is a little worse for wear and needs a little TLC!

any feed back on this would be gratefully received. check you later.

Hi all, i'm gavin another new addition to the s12 way of life, actually i also just aquired a nice sunny b12 1.8zx too (for free), had vectra gsi for last 7 years, getting married in a few weeks, and decided to sell and buy something fun and rear wheel drive again, and have some money left over.... well that was the plan, had it 3 weeks.... after 3 days had head off due to exhaust manifold blowing and 1 bolt totally buggered, and found needed a rebuild. still now i know its all ok internally... but after just 200 miles, its in bits again... due to a blown turbo, and faulty crank oil seal... still keeps me poor, so my better half can spend it all.. sorry for long post.
Keep all the good info flowing guys, newbies like me would be lost without places like this.
Cheers Gav

Hi Gav,
Sounds like fairly common problems. You have the car running for a few days, then off the road for a week .
The joys of s12 motoring .

Hello everyone over here!!

I am the proud owner of a S12 and live in Norfolk.

I have gone halfs up on this with a friend as it just became far to expensive for me to keep using my R33 GTR Skyline on trackdays and i do love the odd trackday!! I am also hoping to get this car to the level where it can handle a bit of drifting.

I have quite a vast knowledge of all things to do with the Skyline so if anyone needs any help with the engine etc then give me a shout.

I hope you guys can point me in the right direction with this car as i know absolutely nothing about it but would like to build it into a good track car, it is running the CA18ET.

First things first where can i find some decent suspension for the car?
