for an extra $20 you can have my aids

it was necesary

Hmmm... Thinking about buying an R34 GT-4. How easy is it to do an engine swap? Drop in an RB26 and it's essentially a GTR..

Never seen a GT-4 for sale until now. $15k asking price.

sedan?

theres a build thread about it.

guys ripping out the na stuff and stuffing it full of GTR goodness

edit: oh and thinking about what shans been saying. i guess i realllyyy shouldnt go for a high maintenance car that needs a shit load of work like a datsun. thanks dickhead :D

Edited by GTR-boy

Nah, it's a coupe. Red. Nismo kit. Just how I like my 34s :/

not quite that easy... there's a fair few expenses

Well forget the RB26. Just say I dropped in an RB25DET and made the car into a "GT-4+T" :D

I have no experience in Skylines, I only know MR2s.. but I'm guessing like $3000 for the engine. Another $2000 for labor to put it in. Then bigger brakes and stuff would probably be an idea.

Can you explain what you mean by "a few expenses"?

The engine will need to be from a stagea or a gtr or it will not fit. Well the sump wont anyways... If you think the engine and labour is going to cost you 5 grand your underbudgetting pretty badly.

landed in malaysia saturday night, place is nice as, few tuners around lol mainly civics/ accords, toyota yaris/echos, every second car here has rims and hids lol.

outside my hotel was m5, porsche 911 turbo & a porsche gt2 or3 which was mint.

Fair enough. Nevermind then :D MR2 turbo it is then.

Jizzy boy, you'll need an AWD engine for ease of transfer, but even then you'll have to change the ECU over, possibly some wiring, while you're at it you'll need to upgrade your brakes if you wanna have it engineered... oh and you'll need to get it engineered if you wanna stay legal. Not to mention it'll be an auto, and making it a manual is about the hardest swap you can do cos your choices are "R33 S2/R34 GTR gearbox", or "R32 GTR/GTS4 gearbox plus a lot of messing around".

If I were you just make mad cash moneh by selling it to some P-plater stooge that wants to jump the cool car bandwagon by buying a heavy ass non turbo. The moment you turbo it, it'll drop in value.

In short, DO NOT BUY AN AWD SKYLINE unless its a GTR. Trust me, I own one... and unless you're gonna be happy with it the way it is for as long as you have it, don't buy it.

    • Haha luckily we don't have emissions, inspections, or any laws against power adders here. They only thing they somewhat keep an eye out for are ridiculously loud exhausts. 
    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
