bump!

That looks nice! Does anyone have a list of capeable clusters that can fit in a A31...... Its so old and out dated haha....and i havent found any aftermaket clusters either....

Hi guys, im currently living out of Aus for a few years and would like to pick up a cheap car for daily driving and fun cruising on the weekend. I have average experience with cars and do alot of reading on specs/stats etc. I would like to know some pros and cons from users here in regards to buying a 2nd hand cefiro with one of these turbo engines. Im a big fan of these 3 engines and there is a large supply of cefiros for sale with these engines available in them. Now obviously it depends how good the work has been done on the car, but for now i would like to be able to narrow my search on them. It will most likely be personal preference of which engine, but in regards for maintenance etc and less issues of modified engines i have heard the 1jz is quite reliable. Rb25 would be great, and the 2jz has always made me cream myself as a youngster watching my first mkiv supra fly by...... If anyone has experience in these engines in a conversion point of view, especially in a cefiro could you please let me know. I would be driving manual. A few of them have had LPG conversions too.....im not too fond of the idea and i have done some googling on LPG tubo cars, but could i get some light shed on the idea of LPG in a turbo car. The reason for buying a cefiro is because years ago they were a bigger import here and anything such as a skyline, or silvia/s14/180sx are a few thousand $ more than the cefiros that have had some slight work........hence the choice of the A31. I have drivin in some old soarers and a chaser. Ive never drivin a rb25det. They are all fun to ride in but now that im looking at 1 chasis and have to choose which engine its quite difficult! I enjoy my cars and im not too biased about them. Dont be upset or biased about a nissan running a toyota engine please!! Just give me your thoughts from a tuners POV. Thanks heaps! Any help will be much appreciated.

im still waiting =P

i dont need them atm otherwise i would buy them ahaha. how hard is it to get the cross factory kit here??

yea ahaha im not even going to go there. best to just wait it out and get a gtt... unless i get a na 180 or somethign fun to drive for 1.5 years....

from what i remember there is a full carbon body kit for alot cheaper than that in a HPI issue a few months back with a matt black gtr...ill find it and post what i find!

yea true. have you seen the r34 front only? not wide fenders etc? aggroman got a new red r34 with the gtr front. i didnt notice any difference in the fenders like the eastbear kit...or bonnet

Awsome, grats on your new goodies! i heard they cant be used for r34s? is this true? ( i must have looked at a old mag issue)

u get warranty at top secret anyway. why dont u get them to check it out?

yea in one of the full sets it was like $13k! dunno why it was that much though.

these days with the exchange rates so F'd up i wouldnt be buying anything from OS tbh.... i wish it effected japan more than us. we were going well a few months ago.....

best chance is to go look at their car and hope it says gtv on the plate! and try and get away with a cheap sale on it too!

ill look it up now. i doubt they will be very common? what kind of hardware is included? EDIT: checked carsales> no option for r34 gt-v

yea. would you prefer turbo conversion or engine swap from gtt+ transmission.brakes and later on clutch...
