Hey all

Just had a long weekend in Tokyo and while I was there, i stumbled upon the Nissan Gallery. Took a few pics of all the GTRs and previous model skylines that were on display. Have a look if you like.

These cars are taken from the Nissan collection which used to be located at the Zama warehouse.

If i recall correctly, they do keep a unit of each production model in their collection. so the mileage are usually very low.

I have sat in that R34 before...its as new as u can imagine =)

I wonder how many KMs on those cars

Imagine driving a 'straight out of the box' R32 or R33 GTR. No aging of parts to wear them down and no rattles too.

Glad you all are enjoying some of the pics. Was great to see so many fine examples of the various GTRs in one place.

It's hard to describe exactly where the main gallery is but there is a smaller one, which I found first, right at the Ginza 4 Chrome intersection and they have a handout of how to get to the main gallery.

The small one is located off the Ginza subway station (Gate 9??) on the Ginza or Hibiya lines from memory.

It would be pretty cool thats for sure. It was unfortunate that in the past we didnt get the R32/33/34/35 aus delivered. But It will be great when the new skyline makes it out here- not that I can afford one.

I'll drag this thread up with the following link:

56k beware.

:D

Seems he's a 300zx fan..precious little detail on the 32, but the 390, the mid4 and the LM 33 are interesting...Noddies fire truck FTW though

It's a post on the worlds largest 300zx forum, TTnet, so no surprise about the content, but what a treasure trove.

    • Isn't there a fitting on the back of the balance tube? That's what the OEM boost gauge uses.
    • Getting a decent signal from all 6 throats is a challenge. I don't know for sure, but I suspect that the stock balance tube is not ideal for it. I have done it on an ALFA 4 cylinder (about 35 years ago, so don't ask for too many details). We drilled 4x holes in the manifold runners, put in some fittings and ran hoses to a decent sized (I think it was about 20mm diameter) pipe that ran the length of the inlet manifold. So, it was quite a decent volume. There is a "tuning" balance to be found between the volume of the common plenum on such a thing and the diameter of the pipes running from it to the runners. You need the volume to be large enough to damp out the sharp spikes in pressure signal you get as each runner gets sucked on by its cylinder, but not so large that it becomes too slow to respond to actual changes in MAP. And you need the hoses to be small enough to transmit the signal quickly, but not so small that they delay the signal. You might have to have more than one go at it, if there isn't any actual success based wisdom to be had here. Hopefully there is. Anyway, I would not do it on only a couple of cylinders. I would also not care about "permanently modifying a part". Just bloody drill holes and make stuff better. There is nothing sacred about any GTR unless it is a genuine museum piece that you shouldn't be modifying at all anyway.
    • He's still joining you, he's just delayed it and won't have the fulleh sick ITBs...
    • The strange thing is this is a URAS front bumper (or clone of it). The bumper actually does not sit flush with the GTT hood - You need the addon to make the hood 'long' enough to reach the bumper. I have no idea why they didn't incorporate this piece into the bumper itself.. instead of sticking it to the hood instead.
    • Another thought on this OLD topic: When you paint your bonnet lip, leave a small unpainted back lip/line along the back of the lip, where it rests on the bumper. That way, the line in the back is much more prominent than the gaps in the front/under the lip - and it breaks the hood-to-bumper connection at the "correct" place, when comparing to a GTR. I'm gonna do this with mine this week, so stay tuned for pics!
