Jarrad, what side skirts are those? N1's?

And Wayne, as Damo said, chicks love the live read-outs. I bought a ECUtalk LCD read-out thingo purely for this reason. Not only do the chicks love my centre console gauges and love hearing me crap on about oil temperature, they also love reading vital information like fuel injector cycles. And water temps.

They love it.

I also indulge in explaining my torque metre in the dash.

But seriously, I hate it when chicks are like "z0mg you've got a Skyline... my ex ex ex ex bf owned one but it was like all square shaped." and you're like "but this... is a GTR... how can you compare that with a 31?" and they're like "but all Skylines are the same?"

I've only met a small handful of women who are like "Ah... GTR... 2 turbos then, eh?"

Reminds me of the time my girlfriend had a work drinks night at Marble Bar and some guy was talking to her. He's like "I drive a Skyline". So she replied "Oh which one?". He goes "An R31 Skyline". She follows up with a "Oh, the old shitty one? My boyfriend has a R32". He just walked away..

lol hence why they dropped the skyline part off the R35. getting your 160k+ car talked about like its a 2k old pos.

I always note what they say as to how much they know, if they know nothing about cars they call it a nissan, a lil they call it a skyline, and if they know what a gtr is theyll call it that or godzilla or something

n n1 sideskirts drop at the rear wheel in a lil point sorta of thing aside from that they pretty much flat like a stock gtr side skirt, take a look at the calsonic R32 that has em. least thats what i think the n1 sideskirt is

All I know is its a standard GTR kit. I don't have the rear pods, but I think they're a factory extra

The sideskits you have definately aren't standard GTR kit, theyre type M's. Front bar is, and the rear pods look stock too (like dan says, the n1 has a lip that drops down, however it does look bigger than my pods).

(I'd love to get a pair, anyone got a link as to how much they cost?)

This is what stock r32 gtr side skirts look like

Edit ; I see u edited ur post talbo, but I'd recommend Andrew at Goodyear on North East Road in Hampstead Gardens. Dude knows his stuff and has a 4 wheel aligner.

The place on Hancock rd opposite St Agnes Shopping Centre, fark the name escapes me!

Cheers. I know the place you're talking about but I don't live that way anymore so I'm going to just stop past somewhere on the way home from work and see if they can fit me in.

    • Depends how low and tyre size. Should fit with natural camber, skinny tyres and rolled guards.
    • Hi guys, planning to get 18x9 +25 in fronts and 18x10 +25 in rears been reading the whole thread and cant really find anything   Anyone know if these will fit a r34 gtt with no scrubbing or guard work needed?
    • They usually get made by hand as part of any such swap.
    • Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?
    • I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
