Recommended Posts

Hey pplzzz,

Ive been on this forum before many years ago with a 97 black r33 gts-4 non-turbo which i sold for a 01 yellow 200sx specR and finally a 03 BMW e46 325i but now im back with a 02 black r34 gtr and looking forward to some great

information, great car builds and hopefully meeting some nice people.

I got the GTR from a new importer from sydney called EVI: Extreme Vehicle Imports and i got an absolutely immaculate vehicle! it has only 21,000kms with a full japanese service history log, not a spot of rust and perfect interior

current mods are:

HKS exhaust

Nismo suspension

HKS boost controller

ARC air diversion panel

Electronic fan controller

Nismo strut bar

Heavy duty clutch

Coming up is a race cat pipe, front pipe and dumps, apexi pods and apexi power fc: going for a nice and modest 250kw/atw for daily driving!

Anyways just thought id say hi and post some pics

thanks for the comments guyz, would be cool to meet up with some fellow skyline drivers

actually whats funny is this is my first manual car and ive only had about 30minutes driving manual cars all together so im gonna need some practice before anyone will find me on a cruise lolz

i feel kinda embarrased cos the car will attract alot of attention and people will be able to view my awful gearshifts and clutching.

Very nice car mate. Might have to hit those guys up for an R34 GT-R if I decide to go that route. Hope you're going well with the manual shifting, the R34 gearbox has a great shift action which helps :D

    • Yeah they sure are available for import now, its great news Matt, You need an import specialist insurer, nothing has really changed over the years about the mainstream insurance companies not touching them. I have my cars with Lumley (same group as NRMA etc) because they insure imports and have a good concept of "stable use" where as long as no more than 2 cars are being driven each day you can have them all on a good rate, I've also had no issues with claims through them. Note they won't insure a car if you take it to the track, even for an off track claim. Shannons are another option but I had a lot of trouble with their claims (they were happy to take the premiums, not so keen to pay out), and I'm sure there are other import specialists too 
    • I'm a lifelong home drummer, was in a couple of bands as a teenager/early 20's then moved to Japan and didn't play at all until 2019 when my missus and I were invited to check out the band room upstairs at a restaurant cafe here in JP. They had a full acoustic drum kit and they let me have a bash for about 20 mins. I went away from there wondering how I could not play for 19 years.... Missus bought me a e-drum kit a few weeks later (Yamaha DTX402) which is basic but lets me play at home in my tiny Japanese house.  Also have an Epiphone Les Paul and little Vox amp and delay pedal I bought for the missus because she wanted to learn to play the guitar, but she never got into it. That was about 8 years ago. I taught myself to play some 80's U2 song riffs like the Fly solo, etc and some other things but being a drummer I don't really have the dexterity in the fingers lol. Ham fisted if you will. So I kind of just mess around with the guitar rather than try to seriously play complete songs. My son on the other hand inherited all my side of the family's musical talent and is a brilliant classical pianist at 16 years old. He'll go on to do something in the music industry here for sure once he finished his schooling. I got him a Yamaha NU1XA hybrid piano earlier this year.
    • If the BOV is plumbed in as mentioned, like stock.... why exactly would it stall? It'd be like stock. Do stock cars stall with stock bovs?
    • You mean a rich spike, as the air has been metered multiple times due to the turbulent air, you end up injecting more fuel causing a momentary dip in torque and quite possibly a stall event. TL;DR, install a Haltech Elite or S3 or R3, convert to DBW, throw all ancient shit into the bin and enjoy the car.
