Things havent cracked lately for me, with so many P-plate restriction, im forced to sell up turbo brethern, so now im looking for a nice newer ride, preferably a nice and tidy R34 GTS 4 Dr manual, only prob is that there aint any manual 4DR GTS floating around, and considering im new to skyline scene, any input is welcome.

Some things i wanna clear up is fuel eco, atm my 180sx gets a very good 10lt to 100km, normal driving, so how would R34 GT-S Neo RB25 stack up?

Also being an import, i suspect running 95RON would still be very limit and 98RON all times?

Another point is as majority are in indeed tiptronic, how are they compared to standardised auto slush boxes? i know Silvia S15 auto are dreadful to drive when cold, its like being shot in the back when shifting into 1st and 2nd gears when cold.

The skyline will drink more than your 180sx and that will vary depending on your driving style. A non-turbo one might not be very fun for you especially if you have driven turbo before. 10-16L/100km. range...turbo is about 12-14L/100km.

Tiptronic is fine, i find mine perfect for daily driving and the occasional tiptronic mode is decent. Just dont expect it to be 6speed manual and you'll be fine :spank:

98ron mate. its pretty cheap these days newais so yeh, enjoy!

Is it me or are all 4DR variants tiptronics? Finding one in manual is impossible, so did they actually come out in a manual 5sp form because all the ones in looking at are tiptronic? , or are they indeed converted to a manual? Im only looking at Non Turbo RB25de Neo vehicles.

      It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.

      Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there

      Factory LSD is supposedly a 2 way with a very conservative cam. If you've already tried adding friction modifier to the diff oil and it still locks up too much for your liking you might want to adjust the ramp rate on the cam to be more like OEM instead of reducing initial torque even further. People claim the 8 kgf-m disc kit for the OEM LSD is still very streetable but I've never been able to compare everything side by side on my own.

      Oh man, at least it sounds they've accepted they stuffed up and not put it back on you...could see some confusion if they asked if it had a hardtop or not, and you've answered truthfully but maybe not answering their real question which is what roof did it have from the factory! Glad your keeping it N/A 2.5

      Nah, I much prefer colour matched Talking about colour matching stuff, the new/used boot lid turned up, all painted up perfectly......aaaannnndddd, it's for a power retractable hard top, not a soft top.....LOL They are now sending a boot to fit a soft top.....,  whilst frustrating, life is like that sometimes, sometimes you just need to dodge, duck, dip, dive and, ummm, dodge.
