Greetings from Canada :) Some of you may know that the R34 GTR just became legal in our country. We have a law stating that vehicles not manufactured for the North American market must be 15 years old or older to be eligible for import. My last Skyline was a 1992 R32 GTST I bought back in 2007. Very happy to have one of the first (legally imported) R34 GTR's in the country :)

Needs a wash and the front diffuser needs a bit of work, but I love it immensely.

Have you got plans for your GT-R? Are you navigating through SAU quite easily? Searching through our For Sale threads?

I am navigating very well thanks :) I've actually been a member here since I had my R32 in 2007... I just never, ever post. I am a bit more active on the GTRCanada but not by much.

Most of the year in northern BC by the Alberta border. GTR is currently garaged in Vancouver since all the gravel on the roads from winter would not play nice with the windscreen and paint. It will come up here with me in June or so during our summer... before I likely move back in December-ish.

I am probably begin with some cosmetic mods, interior bits, wheels, and repairing the front diffuser. The bonnet dampers I ordered from Japan just arrived at my place in Vancouver today, along with the parts to swap out the factory navigation so I can fit a proper stereo that works in Canada. The car came with most of the significant stuff done to it. TRUST exhaust, Tein coilovers, HKS boost controller, etc... Not super keen on opening up the engine yet having only had it for just over a month now.

There are actually a number of photos of your car saved on my drive in my "inspiration" folder... though I didn't know it was yours at the time!

    • Awesome mate, sounds like an awesome car! My 33 has the 400R/Nismo front and rear bumpers and side skirts. They're in terrible condition though so I either need to fix them up or toss them and get new, standard bumpers and skirts. I wish the Nismo stuff was FRP not fibreglass as they're always one nudge away from complete destruction! 
    • Thanks mate 👍 The car was brought into the UK by a USAF mechanic until he was stationed back to the US, one owner later I bought her back in 2009. Luckily the only corrosion was on the sill seams, so once taken back to metal and treated and sealed all ok, I then undersealed the car myself and check yearly and treat any corrosion which to be honest is zero. She's garaged most of the time and hardly ever driven in the rain, but as you say most are rotten unfortunately, I was lucky in finding her as she was and still is in excellent condition.  
    • Stunning car.  Looks amazing!  You're in the UK?  How the hell do you stop your car rotting away beneath you?  British cars are the WORST I've ever seen in regards to rust.  Some of the cars SR Autobody have done are borderbeyond saving.
    • not a date code? or a foundry code? 
    • I have up to date pics of the engine build and turbo conversion over on my instagram @skpro_jects if you want to take a deeper look.   Basically the exhaust manifold is straight bolt on and the ports match (they arent any smaller than a 25 or 26 head).    the intake ports are different shape so the 20/25det manifold will bolt up but wont match properly or seal. You will need to port match using the 25det gasket as a stencil. Personally i ran the entire stock 20neo intake setup and have configured the swirl valves and torque valve to work based on my custom parameters to help with off boost response and spool. But this is using a standalone aem v2 ecu. The stock 20det ecu wont be able to control them.
