Thanks! I found that the Gram Lights were also a love/hate deal. I think these days most un-ordinary modifications are.

I chose the BBS because 1.) It had never been done - to my knowledge and 2.) Much like I believe the titanium Gram Lights will never go out of style, neither will the RS.

Sure, you can say the look doesn't quite fit the car, but I haven't seen a single car that the BBS RS doesn't fit. Any car, to me, looks good with them. The RS has been around since the 80's and people are still cleaning them up and putting them on new cars. They're timeless. I can buy any year model German car and they'll look great. I can buy a FT86 and they'll look great. I can fit them to a 10 year old V35 and they look great.

I can sit here and pull the whole, "it's my car" thing, but there really was a lot of thought put into this... just like the previous setup. While I enjoy my car, I want others to be able to enjoy it and appreciate the work as well.

And finally.... that rear lip... I mean... c'mon.. lol :Pwaffle4_zpsedcd7eda.jpeg

It does look good mate. BBS seem to make amazing wheels that never go out of style and suit anything. Good on you for doing something different. I loved the gramlight but these are better. Needs more poke and dish. You will have to forgive some of the people on here. Jealousy for not doing it first.

As some of you may know i attempted to put a VQ25DET from a stagea into my 250GT. Well it didnt work for various reasons. So now when people say "oh stageas and skylines are the same only one is a wagon and one is a sedan" - its a load of crap. The only thing they really share is the front doors, windscreen, dash and other little bits, the rest is either slightly different or totally different.

So we ended up cleaning out the plenums and intake, new spark plugs and other bits aswell. Got some V35 forged rays factory tick option wheels. NOTE: these are not 350Z wheels.

I also put on a aero bumper.

I can't wait to see that painted. That is going to look rediculously good.

Very nice work mate, I think Nissan should have chosen that for the front end of the sedan to begin with. Perhaps looks even better than the coupe.

Wasn't sure whether here or newbies was the appropriate thread (that fact alone nearly induced me to post in newbies), but just picked up a V36 370 a couple of weeks ago. Finally decided to replace my 4door R32 GTSt. 'S' variant, and very happy with it (apart from the Japanese GPS of course). Shopped around for a bit before buying from Road and Track at Silverwater. Great to deal with, and the car came with de-registration certificate from Japan, giving me some piece of mind as to legitimate kms (apparently a common issue from what I had been reading).

Sorry, only took basic shots at my place with a camera phone. BTW the rear wheels aren't not quite as low as they look; the positioning in my driveway is causing that!

      R34 gtt rb25det neo timing belt kit

      By Duncan · Posted

      1. I can't see a location on your profile but you do mention GBP so I'll assume you are in UK. In Australia, CBC make a timing belt kit with the gears and idler and tension bearing and that is what I use without any problems. I'm sure OEM or HKS are also fine but I wouldn't pay extra for HKS over anything else. 2. Yes, I would always change the idler and tensioner and the stud and bolt that hold them in. Assuming they were all done last time it is highly unlikely you would have a problem, but they are very cheap to add to the job considering the time it will take anyway.  3. No, you don't need to lock them as such (I think that is more for engines without timing marks), but you should make sure they move as little as possible once the belt is off as you can hit pistons on valves if they move too far. As always, make sure you line it all up to top dead centre with the timing marks aligned before you take the old belt off.

      R34 gtt rb25det neo timing belt kit

      By drifter17a · Posted

      Hey everyone,   I’m looking for some advice on replacing the timing belt on my RB25DET Neo-powered 1998 Skyline. The engine was fully built about five years ago, including a fresh timing belt, water pump, and other essentials. However, since then, the car has only covered around 2,000–3,000 miles. It’s currently making around 650hp.   Even though the mileage is low, I know timing belts have a time-based lifespan too, and most recommendations suggest changing them every five to six years or 50,000 miles. Since I’m at that time mark, I’d rather not take any risks and plan to swap it out soon.   A few things I’d like to hear opinions on: 1. What’s the best belt for this setup? Should I go with an OEM Nissan belt, or is the HKS fine-tune a better choice given the power level? 2. Would you bother replacing the idler pulley and tensioner at the same time, or only if they show wear? 3. When swapping the belt, is it necessary to lock the cam and crank gears in place, or is lining up the timing marks enough? I’ve seen different approaches, and I want to make sure I do it right.   The water pump was changed with the rebuild and isn’t run off the timing belt, so I don’t see a need to replace it again. I just want to make sure I approach this the right way.   Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks!
