R30 for sure :) I almost vomit looking at R33's, The worst looking skyline ever made

considering every man and his dog has one you'l have to get some airsick bags for your back pocket when you go outside then

Have opted for a Chaser to replace my daily drive but i'm still a Nismo fan through and through but Chaser's do kick ass

Dave,

I like your choice of replacement, I was going to do similar with a JZX90 (is that correct) chaser, but good ones were hard to find so I went with a 1UZ conversion to my MX83 and now I think I have the best Toyota cruiser in the country.

January 08, I did Sydney to Melbourne via Hume, Great Ocean Rd ~ Torquay to Port Campbell and back up the coast through Lakes Entrance. Covered 3920k on 176L fuel which calculates to 9.6L/100k and has power / torque to burn.

Pity you can't keep both.

I did a bit of cruising on Yahoo Auctions last night and your sedan isn't bringing money in Japan either, found some with starting figures of AU$100.00 with no bidders, so it might be a store it for a while deal and wait out the crisis the world seems to be in at the moment.

Cheers, D

Ya gunna need lots & lots of bottle tops for one of these.

I much prefer the JZX90 shape to the 100 & later.

Only problem for me it can't tow my Skylines where the V8 does it eazy.

Cheers, D

i reckon it would do the trick but i would stick with the 8 for the job.

the 1jzx has an awesomely torquey motor and the low down power is quite surprising... all about the VVTI now - nice smooth power band

** Thread cleaned up**

Dennis, It doesnt hurt for him to try for a high price, and if you feel the need to tell someone they are asking to much, keep it to PM please.

There's no need for a keyboard war over someones asking price, no matter if you are the seller, or a prospective buyer(or just reading the thread)

Keep it to a dull roar people.

Cheers

Jason

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      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?

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      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.

      UniClutch

      By B-Boi34 · Posted

      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.....
