Hey guys n girls,

New to the forums and to skylines,

Been thinking about buying one for a while but was looking at a 32 GTR since my pintara (first car) is giving me the shits and im thinking about getting rid of it.

Just got some questions and hoping you guys could help me out :P

GTR's come with a stock turbo, how much trouble would i have taking it off and fixing it up the right way to make it P plate legal. I been told that if i take the turbo off it'll ruin the car and run like shit (Worse than a 32 GTS)

Or am I better off just getting a GTS non turbo (If i;m going to do that my budget might let me go for a R33 GTS and one last thing, if i do go for a GTS do you think im better off going the R32 or 33?

Thanks in advance for the help, new to learning about the car but very eger to learn about these monsters smile.gif

Don't try to take the turbos off a gtr,    like whoever told you they are right.  If you buy a nonturbo skyline it will look nice but go a little faster than your pintara.  If you want to go fast keep you pintara and save for a turbo untill you are off you p's.

Wayyyy to many of these threads going up... just get a Non turbo while one P's get to know the skyline etc. Keep it in good condition then when your off P's sell it to another p plater and if you treated it right you will pretty much get what you paid for it back. I really think its the way to go.. dont waste money and get worse performance by taking the turbo off a car, just stupid imo

GTR's are actually twin turbo... so there are two turbos to remove... and yeh horrible for the car.... plus the law still see it as a GTR and then ur REALLY stuffed... even though there are no turbos attached to the car... plus it will barely run...

please search... this thread is 1 or 2 under yours and a bloke is just asking questions after removing a turbo from a gtst.... the outcome is pretty poor....

why would you want to do that to a gtr? just buy a na gts-4, its the same drive train as a gtr.

you could do it. you would have to check if an na rb25 exhuast manifold bolts up to the rb26 and you will probably have to get an exhuast made up for it. also you will need to get it tuned.

just unbolt all the tubo gear and plug up the oil and water feed lines in the block. then bolt up your na manifold and get the exhuast fitted. you will also have to make up an air intake pipe for it and just run a pod filter and dont forget to put the air flow senser in there. jobs prety much done just go get a tune.

other then that taking it off is fairly straght forward. but even if you did this you will be running a low-comp na motor. chances are you will have less power then a stock rb25de.

but honestly dont do it.

    • This isn't for lotsa powers, and time and effort isn't even a thing I'm concerned about The whole reason is "Just because fun", and "Just because fun" is what I do And whilst there are other kits, with better and more modern turbos (Rev9 use the same Kraken manifold I believe.....EDIT... nope, the Kraken is a cast jobbie, the REv9 uses welded up stainless, plus $8000 AUD before shipping, installation and tuning) Where else in Sydney can I do a drive in drive out with the after sales support that MX5 Mania give My Turbo 86 made around 200kwatw on a AVO turbo kit that Pulse fitted, and it was over 100kg heavier than the MX5, but it was a blast to drive around the streets, until I crashed it.....DOOH, so somewhere around 200 ish level and some whooshy noises and I'll be happy driving to work, the shops, or heading into the country with Jackie for Devonshire tea So, thanks Dose for your info, it sounds like a 0.64 will be fine for what I'm after👍 The only real racing I do nowadays is to the toilet

    • Hey @Butters, did you end up getting this clutch in ? I have just ordered to a uniclutch track to go in my getrag 6 speed that’s in my BNR 32     
    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
