Hey all, :action-smiley-069:

Been following imports 4 quite a while now... since the early 90s!!!

My all time fav car is the awesome Nissan Skyline GTR!! By far and away the best value for money and kick ar%e car there has ever been!!

I have owned...

Back in 1996 - 1992 Nissan Silvia Ks Manual (Charcoal Grey) Stock with an exhaust (Dump pipe & Cat back Kakimoto Racing exhaust)

Back in 2003 - 1992 Nissan Skyline GTR - R32 (Silver with blue pearl) Stock with an exhaust ran a 13.03 at Heathcote. Then after a problem fitted a rebuilt RB26 with HKS Stage 2 cams, adj cam gears, replaced ceramic turbine wheels with steel and Power FC computer - produced 245 rwkw on 13.5psi.

Back in 2006 - 1996 NIssan 180SX with Type X look (White), Tien Suspension with camber tops(which I still have and looking to get rid off, 2 shockers need to be rebuilt), exhaust and a set of 18 inch wheels)

I am currently in the process of purchasing a 2007/2008 Nissan Skyline CKV36 Manual Colour is still a problem, not sure yet (probably go with White pearl or Charcoal Grey... Carn't wait!!!!! :D

Cheers all,

Rob

Hey guys.

My name is mark. From Newcastle, just got my hands on a 2002 V35 250GT sedan in pearl white. Picked it up for $10.200 in Sydney with my trade in of a 98 N15

What can I say it is a huge step up. This is my third Nissan and I love them to bits.

New to this blog/forums thing, but I'll pick it up!

Congratulations Dan.! Late 2005 Coupe lakeshore blue-is it manaul or auto ??. I got the Impul lip spoiler. Good luck with the compliance, looks like you have modified exhaust (as many do). Just fiddley cause they have to remove put standard one then put it back on. Wonder if you got chipped ecu also?8. You wont be able to wipe the grin off your face first few weeks! Welcome to the V's

Cheers Elie. Yeah seems like it has the exhaust, and intake aftermarket. Not too sure if its cat back or the full system, will find out soon enough. Its an auto, correct its a 2005. Looks like it has the full aero package because I'm pretty sure it has the oem front lip. Ive been doing a bit of reading on them, didn't realise there are so many variants. First thing will be getting the tv/dvd and the radio going.

Welcome to the V-series community, Dan. Hope you would enjoy new generation Skyline.

On site note, that's a good looking front lip. I haven't seen this kind in aero package. Maybe it's because it's 05 model?

Thanks, im sure I will. Yeah I think it looks good. No idea about the lip, was hoping you guys'd know, but seeing as it has the oem spoiler and guards I would say it is.

Hi Everyone,

I'm Ben from Coffs Harbour area, thought id introduce myself to the v series community, im hopefully getting a v35 coupe/sedan in the new year. Ive been looking to upgrade for a while and ive fallen for just about everything that the v series can offer!! I think ive seen maybe 3 - 4 of these in the area over the last 3 years so it will definitely stand out in the crowd rolleyes.gif

I just want something a little bit different, p platers give imports a bad name up here, so many riced up 32's,33's and a few 34's not to mention anyone who owns a vt commonwhore with rims thinks they can take on anything rofl.gif

Never owned an import before but getting really excited for it. Got a mate who just imported a chaser and im like time for an upgrade i think especially since im driving a crv....

    • ...just a note of warning, you shouldn't drive it about with the TCU in limp mode with only 3rd gear available ~ apart from the fact you end up sheering the ATF at the torque converter interface, the high clutch in these isn't especially the strongest, particularly bolted to the RB25DE mill...which is likely a 4AX01 box with lighter duty high clutch (the RB25DET got the bigger high clutch)...be careful out there...
    • Hoping to do similar mods to my RB20 once I get it running and reliable again
    • As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.
    • Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy  
    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
