WTB R34 GTT Hi everyone, After somewhat inadvisedly selling my pristine R32GTR and then watching the price skyrocket, I need to get a Skyline again. My replacement to the GTR is fun and fast but just not doing it for me...also FWD (Renault Megane RS265, essentially a 200kw FWD go-kart). Due to current budget constraints I can no longer afford a R32 GTR so I'm looking newer and a few less driven wheels. Ideal car: Manual 2dr R34 GTT Low-mid level modification (unopened engine mainly) High modification considered if done by VERY reputable workshop (receipts requested) Preferably <130,000km on chassis, same on engine Don't care about your fully sick stereo Preferably blue/black of some descript, preferably not yellow Not in WA (sorry guys, I'm Tassie based so CBF shipping it back here that far) I'm in no rush to buy, just putting out feelers to see whats around. Budget is up to $20k, very dependent on the car itself. If this sounds like yours and you're looking to sell in the near future, hit me up.

Ahh cool. Well, not cool that I have to buy Z32's but handy to know that I'll have to budget them in. Thanks again Paul, useful dude to talk to!

So I have a very, very stupid question. I'm relatively new to the world of serious modifying as I've only ever done an exhaust on a $500 hunk of junk. I am aware that when modifying a Skyline with better turbos/general upgrades that one of the things that ideally needs doing is fitting Z32 AFM's. I don't instinctively recognise parts (yet) so can someone please confirm if the pictured part is indeed a Z32 AFM as I suspect? If so that's going to make life much easier and cheaper having them already fitted.

Yeah after doing a bit more reading it does seem that the -5's might not be what I want for a milder street tune, definitely heading in the -7 or -9 direction as I'm never going to run it out to 350+kw while it's a daily driver - 300 would be an absolute top figure. Combine that with wanting to tune for response rather than top end pull it's looking like the -9 is the option (if I can afford to fit and tune them lol).

Cheers for that Brett and Paul! Had a look through the dyno sheet pages before, soo many drool worthy beasts on there! There seems to be a lot of people using the HKS 2530's in their build and this was what the previous owner was planning on doing to it prior to unfortunate circumstances (for him) meaning I purchased the car. Is there any reason to stick with the Garrett turbo's as a pose to the HKS counterparts? Other than the 2530's are secondhand due to production, they seem to be tuned for a far broader range of powers than the Garretts that I've seen out there. Seen some 2530 builds at 250kw right the way through to 400, dependent on internal works like cams and stroker kits.

Hi everyone! First post on here outside my new member post so be nice I have a '94 32 GTR that's still running factory turbos and I'm looking at upgrading to chase a few more horses. Currently fitted to the car I have: 3.5" front pipes back exhaust pod filters Nistune ECU Turbosmart dual stage boost controller (tuned at 14psi mainly) Sard 700cc injectors Bosch 023 fuel pump Yellowjacket sparks Standard intercooler Tuned by Chaser's Motorworks to 220kw @ 14psi. Have already done suspension/brakes/clutch for driveability and handling, just planning on working on the power for now. The car is my daily driver so I'm not after insane kw's on stupid boost, just something with a good kick that's reliable. A ballpark figure I have decided to aim for is 280-300kw as I've read a few profiles and that seems driveable and fun without being a mongrel to manage/maintain. I have had suggested to me going with the Garrett -7 turbos, Tomei stage 2 cams, cam gears and dump pipe however this is a little over my current budget. Is there anything I should consider doing that can be mildly tuned but allow for future modifications to bump it up without making parts redundant? ie a turbo set that can tune for 280 but can handle 350 or so if i push further. Essay over lol Cheers Ben

Hi everyone! New to both the forums and ownership of a Skyline. I've drooled over them for ages and finally bit the bullet and got myself a '94 R32 GTR in black with low kms (yeh yeh, I know, prob wound back but drives like it hasn't been) - mongrel to keep clean but it looks sexy as hell. Once I figure out how to post pics on here I'll upload some snaps See you all out there and in the mean time I'm gonna lurk through some of these awesome car pics you've all got!
