      I had to boost mine before I stored it this year and I had to fool around with the booster cables a bit because the connection wasn't securing properly.
      If your terminal is a bit corroded, just take some arm and hammer baking soda and water and clean it off.

      Try this..
      take a hammer...........
      and Hit (tap a skyline) the starter repeatedly, after some one turns the key.

      safety: use wheel chalks. so buddy in the car does not run you over

      tool tip: get or borrow a battery Load tester
      the battery is probably drained by now.
      X2 it being the starter. If it clicks when you turn the key, there's a pretty good chance its the starter.

        Hopefully your skyline has been able to start now with the weather clearing up as it has.
        I installed an inline block heater in the lower rad hose and also have a magnetic heater for the oil pan or tranny (haven't decided). I try to wash it at least once a week top and bottom to help keep the nasties away.

          It may be possible that a oil line has coked up? Bearing seized up and caused the stall/not turning over? Cause it seems like there is plenty of juice to crank,unless his battery is effed! CCA rating on the bat could be down the drain lol

              If you think it's your starter just bump start it. Toss her in 3rd gear get a couple people to push and give'r. If its the starter it should fire right up.
              Miss driving sooooo bad! Need to get a car on the road ASAP!

                Not to hijack, but I'm in a similar boat. My Skyline has been in storage for the winter (non-heated garage, under a tarp, hooked up to a trickle charger) but I had to take it out a couple of weeks ago because I sold my beater. It started up perfectly, then this -40 weather hit for a solid week. The weather has warmed up (-10ish) for the last few days but now the GTR won't start. The engine will crank over and almost sounds like it's going to start, but just fails. I bought a space heater for the garage but it's useless. Any suggestions to get the thing running?

                  bump.

                  still no start. car has been in a heated garage for 2 weeks, new battery, new terminals, new fuel filter, spark plugs have 10K on them and look good when inspected, 1 yr old yellow jackets, changed the CAS, still nothing. Checked blinking light on ECU, shows normal. It just sputters and doesn't start.

                  I tested the resistance on the ignitor module (i.e. transistor unit) and it was not meeting the service manual specs so it leads me to believe it may be this. But when i took the spark plug out to test it, it was sparking. HELP!!!!

                    Check your engine grounds?

                    Connection at your starter/ alt?

                        Where/how many grounding points are there? There's one on the ignitor, two on my battery (one for HIDS)...where else?

                            Yep, I put in a bottle of Lucas fuel stabilizer with a full tank of gas before I stored it for winter.

                              Have you checked your fuel pressure? try banging near the fuel pump after turning the ignition on
