hey guys, how are u all,

it is now only about a week till my R34 lands here on the shores of west coast and i cant wait, im new to all this performance car scene so i was wandering where it all goes down in perth

and secondly my car is a 2001 nissan skyline 25GT, i know its a non turbo but at age 18 i couldn really afford anythin more plus insurance would kill me but anyways its white, full nismo body kit with a carbon fibre hood and rear wing, il post some pics when it gets here in roughly a week or so, but i was wandering how they are to drive etc, perhaps if any fellow 25GT owners could leave me a comment or two coz after readin through the naturally aspirated threads all they do is get flamed over and over again, i dont believe i have made a mistake getting non turbo as it still gonna be lots more powerful the the shitty 1.6 ford laser shitbox i been drivin whilst saving for this r34

thx to everyone in advance

My first was an N/A and it was a great upgrade from my first car.. although after driving a couple turbo skylines and then getting my own - wow its good lol

It's still gonna look shit hot mate so the only performance you need to worry about is in the bedroom with the ladies you might pull :w00t:

haha i like the way u think skyryan...loss of performance on the streets can always be made up with performance in bed with the chicks u pull with the car lol :laughing-smiley-014:

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything
