In the states they came out with the VQ45 as per what is in my F50 Cima, they are fitted with a RB25DET Neo and 4WD but they wont be seen for a while due to emissions testing.

Jash and I got them on the RAWS schedule because we see them as a very good value for money car and with a few mods will go quite well.

nice to see one on the road, mine will be on the road in 2 weeks, its on its way from brisbane now.

as far as mods go, there isnt much apart from looking on yahoo japan. A few companies have cat back exhausts and pod filters, thats about as far as it goes ha ha. i wonder if any parts from the VQ35 fit...

i went through Kristian for mine.

i have a set of 19 inch rims on mine that i will be selling when it gets here if you're interested, i just put brand new tyres on them.

i have lowering springs on their way too just to drop it a bit for now

have you changed the gear box fluid yet? just read the horror story of what happened to Ben's cedric with the CVT, hope yours doesn't crap itself like his did.

your interior is so nice though, almost makes me want to buy a donor car with the series 2 interior and put it into my car

    • Do you plan on using 98 or e85?
    • This should be pretty easy. 200rwkW is just about the max power out of an RB25 stock turbo. So, 12ish psi on a 2.5L. That boost limited mainly by the prospect of seeing the turbine in the cat after the smoke show. A steel wheeled equivalent would likely happily do ~220rwkW at something like 17 psi, where it would probably be bumping into the usual limits of such a sized turbo. These things have like a .48 rear. You will not need the 0.86 rear. The 0.64 will be fine. In fact, if you were looking at various mid-200rwkW options for RBs, most of them would be in a 0.64 rear. So, I think you will definitely want to be no bigger than that for a same sized but probably even more efficient (at making power) modern engine.
    • Change the subframe bushes, transforms the car.
    • For something a little more serious, Davinci Resolve is about the best there is for free video editors. No expiration dates or watermarks, completely free.
    • Well, it's taken me until the last week of 2024 to actually do something on the Skyline but I consider it a good head start to 2025's efforts! I managed to justify (to myself anyway...) my purchase of the lift table. It made taking the rear subframe out a lot easier than it would have been without anyway! Everything is out and stripped down ready for a clean then powdercoating.  She's pretty grubby under there but pretty good condition for a 38 year old Japanese tin bucket. 12 years of zero street time have obviously helped that... I need to decide which of the factory suspension arms I will keep and replace so I only get what I'm keeping powdercoated.  Baby steps but it's a start!
