Yeah agreed, this would be VERY cool. A sleeper EVO 3 of sorts!

But one flaw, this guy wants to do exactly the OPPOSITE to what you've outlined here...

He's downgrading!

NAR mate this is not an evo 3 sleeper, it looks so RICED up its not even funny- but tough. Orginally it was a glxi (bog stock lancer) now wide body with 265 in all 4 corners, screamer pipes, 3.5inch exhaust and hauls ass hard! He recent put a custom ecu from usa so he can make the tune himself. He is thinking about running e85 so can run 20psi plus of boost, jet on wheels lol

Yes he is upgrading not down grading too but i mean we all had that crazy idea that we wanted to do! I would strongly advise, speak to someone at least 25 that is still into car obviously and see what they have to say. Don't ask a 17yo hektik (stero type, please no further jokes about that word, we all get the picture) as they got on idea! Most of the ppl on hear have been through wat you are going through- Remember that advise is FREE :thumbsup: easier to ask for it than go to work and blow all this cash

If you allready have an NA R32... Then bolt up or all the GTR parts you can to it and be happy with what you've got.

Leave the GTR in a shed and start building it up untill you get off your P's...

OR

Move to Tassie... No P plate- turbo laws.

OR

Leave you GTR in Tassie and drive it there (in the school holidays) ha ha ha...

why would i spend all the money on th gts to make it look like a gtr and it's not worth shit, and i dont see any gts4 non turbos... i don't give a shit about the car being plated as a turbo so what its plated as a turbo but at the end of the day its only a non turbo gts powered car that has the stopping of a gtr,

say if you had a vk plated as a v8 with a six they wont touch you...

say you had a mazda rx3 but you put a piston in it they still wont touch you...

my mate has a r33 gtst but has a rb25de in it they dont touch him cos it dosen't have the power of what the plate says...

Hahaha and what do you think your GTR is going to be worth after you retrograde it to be "supposedly" P plater legal? Honestly, you're better off just driving the GTR illegally on your P's, it's just as illegal and costs you less money to do. And that's a BAD idea. You seem to be fairly under-researched in terms of Victorian road laws...I recommend having a good hard read of the relevant legislation on the Vicroads website. Leave your emotions at the door because the whole reason you want to do this is nothing short of emotional. So here's some logic to combat said emotions: The heart of a GTR is an RB26DETT and all wheel drive. You take that away from the car and the only people who will consider it a GTR are the last people you want to consider it so, i.e. the law. You'd be no better than a GTR badged GTS.

There's no non-patronising way to say it, so forgive the tone of my sentiments but what you are planning to do really is ridiculous as almost every post in this thread has pointed out. It's not like you have divided opinion where there's a chance it could be a good idea.

so what im stubborn or i know what i want.. i spend 2k on a decent daily and have another rego to pay or i spend 2k on a car i want and have it on the road, damages arn't that bad they call it a agreed value.. and i work in a panel shop anyways im here for help to build this not to have other change what i want :D

Listen to the people here who have lived life before you...it will save you alot of hard lesson learning, for experience whilst often the best teacher is almost always the harshest teacher - she gives the test first and the lesson afterwards.

haha what a joke, you have already been told and flamed enough so I wont bother giving my advice.

on the other hand autech has already done this (as mentioned above) but they didnt molester a gtr in the first place, if you find one of these it will fit the bill legally.....good luck though, last time I saw one for sale was at R31 House last year.

Do Autech have something against turbos or an affinity for naturally aspirated? The Autech S15 was also non-turbo.

wouldnt need e85 to run 20psi

i run that daily in my evo as do many others on 98

Yes they are, the other is a OS Giken twin cam head for a L-series. L-series were all SOH from factory.

Just to add - L series engines were not cross flow designs too :P

That OS giken head would be horn.

OMG I WANT TO CRY!! cant believe you would dare hurt a masterpiece. I am a R32 GTR owner and im sad because its getting fixed and i havent driven it for a week. please PLEASEEE sell the car and buy a rb25 R33. i waited till i turned 21 just to buy it. the wait is well worth it

Ok,

My suggestions are as follows since learning doesn't seem to be a part of your stunning repertoire:

1. Use 400 dollars and buy some crack, at least you will be happy when old granny's in civic gli's are frantically raping their horns to get you out of their way

2. Buy a Donkey, ram your exhaust pipe into the rear end, and watch it race your NA GTR, it would make a hell of a lot louder noise too. priceless!

3. Give me the money, I would like the entire Nagisa Auto catalogue for my GTR, pretty please?

4. Invest in zimbabwe, your money would double up within a week in their currency which would then become less than an 8 pack of toilet paper rolls in Australia

5. Strip naked in front of a mental institute and do a lil dance, they'll take you in and give you some happy shots. Similar to number 1 and it's free!!

6. Similar to number 5, strip naked with a group of people boosted by the power of viagra of which are all too eager to bat for the other team. They'll do you like the granny's in their civic gli's

7. I can't think of anything else but I think you are a natural comedian, I'll give you my recyclable bottles to watch you perform your NA conversion, and do all of the above.

8. Cut your balls off! Then if you ever get lucky with someone of equal intellectual capacity, stitch them back on and be a super cool limp dck. She would be so impressed that she might even kick it to see what happens.

So, are you sure you really want to go down this path?

    • me too wasnt real happy and cost me a penny or 2 to replace
    • But there's the archetype for the name plate! Here's my view on that stupid TÜV ruleset. Buy a brand name aftermarket piece of equipment. In this case, the Mines front pipe we're talking about. Get it TÜV certified on the car. Damage the underside of it, say on a speed bump. Cut out the damaged section, replace with fresh metal. (For the sake of the argument only), continue doing that to the whole pipe until it is all gone, replaced with new metal. Is this grandfather's axe still the same front pipe? The design hasn't changed (much). The pipe walls are in the same places. The flanges are in the same places. It is functionally identical. How does this differ from a pipe that is ever so slightly different in fabrication (ie the number of welds in it, a few mm here and there in terms of where the pipes run, are joined, etc)? Anyone with 0.5% of a brain can see that there is absolutely no way that the performance (power, environmental aspects, noise, etc etc) of it can be any different than the genuine Mines pipe. Maybe even Mines made 2 versions of this design, with the same differences. How would anyone (say a TÜV inspector) ever be able to differentiate between them? And yet, they are so bloody anally retentive about this stuff. Mad. How upset would they be if you had the wrong spring washers on the flanges?

    • After a fairly extensive search using Japanese terms and checking Minkara etc, I couldn't find anything even close to your front pipe in the photos. I'm no expert but the two pipes merge really close to the flange connected to the catalytic converter which is rather unique from what I've seen, which makes me think it's more than likely a custom front pipe. The welds and 'more pipe sections than usual for a brand name pipe' makes it seem like a custom one.  Here's some photos of an old Mine's front pipe. You can see that it's just 4 pipe sections as opposed to 6, and arguably looks more like a 'production' front pipe:
