I think after 18 months of floating on this forum it is time to show you all my pride and joy.

It's a 99 rs-four, i imported it stock standard with 37.000 k's and a 4.5 rating at the auction in japan,

I absolutely love this car and wouldn't want anything elese, even though it gives me headaches...

So far i have done the following:

Apexi Pod Filter

Alpine Head unit

Smoked Nismo indicators

R34 GTT 17’’ rims

Pioneer amp, sub, splits

NGK iridium plugs

Defi red racer boost gauge

Tein s-tech springs

Bilstein shocks

Gates radiator hoses

Hid xenon head lights

Apart from that i am still waiting for my fujitsubo legalis R to come from japan at the end of the month, and going to put in a gfb plumb back bov

I think thats all, im still forever chasing either a dayz or 260rs front bar and dayz rear lip, allso plan on R34 GTR rims and R33 GTR front seats soon.

Enjoy, let me know what you think.

Another awesome Sydney-based Stagea that's missing out on our Thursday night fun! Eddie, get yourself to our regular weekly cruises up the coast, please!!!

Oh yeah, I love the little parking-assist antenna on our front bumper, too.

whats the arieal ? is that yours ? or it come with it ..

* see Goldzilla's post *

It is there to give the driver a better idea of where the passenger side corner of the car is.

Very helpful at times. :(

Yep, it's a parking assist thing. My cousin has one on his R33 4-door, but his one actually has a switch inside the car so he can extend or retract it, kinda like an electric antenna for the stereo. I'm not sure if Eddie's one does that too, can't tell from the photos.

No my one does not retract, it's fixed, but it does have a stagea badge in the top bubble and is ilumintated with a white led light at night

it did come with the car, it is a factory option.

Very nicce ,massive wheels...

my stag with one of the work trucks, the truck is nicer to work on but not very nice to drive!!!

massive wheels too ,what are they 50" ;) ,careful where you park :( maybe somebody can hit the mirror of your truck...

stock wheels, suspension and exhaust. They were on loan and I was going to buy them but the dude changed his mind.

plus, driving it to darwin in 2 weeks, coilovers are a bit bouncey for dirt roads

and they were only 18x9s, i dont think they looked big enough anyway

That looks great! :D Drop it an inch and it will be damn near perfect.

Cheers

Andy

i rekon andy! wanna sell me your suspension?? :D

Silhouette31, M35 RS and RX models DONT have the black 'beard' only the ARX had it. some ARXs that i have seen had the black bits painted the body colour and they look a lot cleaner - no offence to the people that have 'black beard' models!!

the AXIS always has the flares body coloured from what i have seen.

    • If you want to do the wiring, the GTT engine ecu has the same pinouts extra that the seperate TCM in the NA car has. You can literally grab the wires/pins that lead into the Seperate TCM and wire them into the corresponding pins in the GTT Engine ECU. You could then in theory Nistune it. I realised this when everyone put it in the too hard basket and I actually looked at the f**kin R34 manual. This is after I had previously had a seperate aftermarket TCM controller in my original N/A chassis car and a very built gearbox from a GTT, running a seperate Haltech engine ECU. I ran into this issue when I re-shelled the car into a GTT shell, so my aftermarket TCM was no longer plug and play, because the loom/modules were not present. I was pretty livid when realizing just how simple the original fix actually was. It sat for 3+ years at various workshops trying to find a solution. In practice none of this is a worthwhile idea for a lot of reasons, generally surrounding the shitness of the NA auto, the autos in general that come with skylines, and the NA engine and lack of gains. The gearbox is specced for the 2.5L N/A and barely at that level. If you have to pay anyone any money to do any of this, that is money spent on manualizing the car and it's not even close in terms of a comparison. Learning to drive manual is simpler than going through the pain of dealing with the N/A gearbox and he'll have fun to boot.
    • Semi-correction to my blanket statement that you can't bend rubber hoses. It seems that you can get most of a result, by doing as this guy does. I wouldn't promise that the bends will stay in the hose forever. I think if I found they wouldn't stay, I'd get a larger hose and cut some 90°s out to go over the bends I wanted to be in the smaller hose, as a reinforcement.
    • Just a heads up. Mine has just failed. When i turn the car on it just reboots everytime then the word "Android" shows up then goes to a black screen. I've aksed the company i got it from for some help but it's passed their 90 day return so they wont help. I have to swap back to my old system this weekend 😭
    • Does the car have to stay auto? If so, you might be looking at a ZF swap in future.
