R34 Nissan Skyline Service

July 6, 2017

R34 Nissan Skyline Service The day Bill walked in to ask for a service break down for his R34 Nissan Skyline we had to take a double count. Bill is not your usual skyline owner, he would be a few years plus out of the common post teen age bracket of Skyline owners. Bill was well aware the R34 skyline was due for a timing belt and had a few items he wanted to have checked off on his list.

We proposed to view the vehicle and on Bills the R34 surprise continued. As many...
