Yup, well finally, here is my little R34 SKYLINE, Manual GT-T Sedan.. Pearl White and it is simply a pleasure to drive, since July I've done close to 15,000km in it and I'm still not bored.

Considering I used to drive an N/A auto VL Berlina, this is an entire world away from that... These pics are after I gave my car its first cut-back polish and wax.. Again, a big thats to Paul, Alistair and all of Autoworx who at the time help me with the car, big thanks to you guys.. I'm really a happy chappy!

your car looks fantastic great job, what kit do you have on it? im about to get a 4door 25gt and your kit looks perfect for me.

Thought ill post mine :banana:

RICCA, don't steal my thunder mate! :b

Just a factory option sports lip on the stock front bar, option side-skirts and rear bar... That is about it.. They are dime a dozen!

well i feel like an idiot now, but hey you never know if you dont ask, your front just looks different to what mine is, ill have to look into it, your car is so simple and very nice.

Don't feel like a tool man, it isn't a crime to not know. At one point I was ignorant as a door knob about skylines, and whilst I'm a long way from being an expert, I do know a fair bit these days.. I've bought probably nearly a grand in just HPI, ZOOM, HOT4's, AUTOSALON and such magazines since 2007 when I bought my car. The knowledge you acquire from reading them is indispensible. I used to buy them more often than I do know, but make a point of anymag making reference to a Skyline article, particularly if it contains tips about upgrades, modification and walkthroughs. You'll thank me later! ;)

But yeah man, time, knowledge, patience (MY car was stock as a rock all through 07 and most of 08), since I got intercooler/fuel pump and zorst done around sept/oct/nov 08, I've now got a full bilstein coilover kit, poncams, worked head, 13.5 pound of boost (thanks to an RB20 turbo actuator on my stock turbo), ViPEC engine management, coilpacks and nearly 300HP and the rears.. :)

Just take ur time and do the research, ask questions if necissary, if your not happy with the results/advice or dissapointed by a lack of feedback, PERSIST my friend!!

Thanks for posting! and good luck!

:):):ninja:

    • AFM looks to be a z32 The injectors maybe old Nismo 555cc The turbo tag when looked up seems to be a gt2871 , imagine it would have the bigger rear housing .82 all look like the mid 00's mods when he started building it up. Vac hose seems right but would need to see a diagram. Great work going up there and sorting it out, be a good club car for someone wanting a good reliable rig.  I know I would like to have it but no space and too many other race cars at the moment.
    • Heys guys I got a r32 gtst speedo is out by 10kph seems the faster I go the more it be out  just seeing if anyone else had to problem and knows how to fix it 
    • I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better. 
    • 2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)
    • OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
