Hi guys, this is my new ride which I've just imported in. It's a manual with an rb20 (non turbo). Has a nice Lsd, lowered suspension all round and some rims (am hoping to get a new full set soon). Imported the car from japan and am getting it ready to meet uk road regulations, only mod on the car I've done so far is the steering wheel. Have had quite a few nissans in the past from a c32 laurel, s13 200sx and my daily drive a 3 door hatch 87 sunny. Here's a few pictures of the cefiro, 1st 1 was taken when the car was in japan..

nice car mate... hehe mine's pretty close to that look right now too with the 16"s... AE86 drivers go gaga for your rear wheels BTW if you're selling em. make sure you capitalise on their infatuations.

oh and be careful of those weatherstrips, after 15 years of being on the car they tend to fly off at speeds over 130km/h.

lol Sloane if you think their backyards are small, you should check out their roads.

Yup, you're right there. This is my nan's place though, I don't even have a backyard! ...and our roads do suck, gotta go to an industrial estate to have any fun. Even then the fuzz still give us hassle. :P

Not yet, my girlfriends dad moved out to australia a while back so we're hoping to come visit soon. Have been thinking about maybe moving out there 1 day.

Everywhere here's expensive these days mate, fuel's on it's way down now but was @ £1.37 for diesel and around £1.24 for unleaded not so long ago. Your normal roads I'm guessing may be similar size to some of our industrial estates but our's are still probably a bit smaller.

So what sort of mods can I do to get a bit more power (no turbo). I like my cars a bit quiter these days so keeping the stoch back box on the exhaust but looking @ de-cat and 2-1 manifolds.. what modifications are out there?

Update on my car, Still not on the road yet.... failed uk mot due to needing 4 new tires, new wiper blades and front coilovers are shot, among other minor bits. Not really impressed with it so far, this is how it arrived from japan. rear completely bold tires front one punctured, drivers electric window stuck half open (bought new switch but seems motor is the problem) and I'm having trouble sourcing one, though am told an r32 4 door one is the same?? So I've just splashed out on a full brand new set of coilovers which I'm well happy with. Just gotta save some more now before I can do anything else. Looking at getting a new set of wheels, and a 2 branch manifold and de-cat when I've got a bit more cash. ....wish it was on the road!

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
