Congrats on your new wheels eh?

I'd scrounge thru the "For Sale' section to improve your "Parts for your Buck' equation.

Do you need to help your car breathe better beyond the turbo? Example; hi flow cat, exhaust 3" or greater?

It took me over 2 years to get the rims I wanted.

^^^ What you're talking about here then Matt, is a prelude to a turbo upgrade. In that case, you're on the right track.

Intercooler would then be on the shopping list too.

Talk to (ie PM) satanic about his R34 GT-T upgrade process... or others that post up next.

Satanic won best R34 at the R34 GT-R 10th Anniv. 04/09

His car (with specs) is featured on MOTIVE DVD #3 out now in newsagents (chapter 8).

Well I'm a little similar to you, bought my GT-T bog stock, as in stock everything.

Did the pod and 3" turboback exhaust first. Then before more "power specific" upgrades I chucked in splitfire coilpacks (simply because I was missfiring), coilovers and good rubber on my new wheels. This means I can get what power I do have down to the ground better in all circumstances.

I'm about to buy a new boost controller as my next "upgrade". Before you go getting a FMIC, spend your money elsewhere. An ECU and a tune is the way to go rather then a new cooler, this will maximise your power output, minimise your petrol bill as the stock SMIC is good for 200kw at the rears. Why fix whats not broken?

So if your after simple power/number upgrades... air filter, exhaust, boost, ECU/Tune, Intercooler. Just remember there is more then just power to think about suspenion, brakes and tyres are all integral parts of a good Skyline.

      R32 gtst speedo out by 10kph

      By -Jimmy- · Posted

      Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.

      Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.

      This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.

      Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛

      I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .
