not a skyline, but the missus pulsar (formerly mine) was a mid 2000 model (so one of the last n15's ever made) and it's harmonic balancer has different timing marks to the earlier models. instead of having 5 or 6 marks it only has 3. i've only heard of 1 other one being like it and it was made in the same month

East Bear GTS-R body kit (only one other full kitted EB car in oz)

GTR V-Spec rear diffuser isn't rare for GTR's of course, but i don't know anyone else running one on a GTT. Called Nissan for shits and giggles and they wanted $10K for a rear diffuser :worship:

my r34 gtt manual sedan has no rear wiper !!! i havent seen any others without one ??

That is rare - I thought they came as standard equipment.

My car (R34 sedan) has a parking antenna - haven't seen any other car with one, except a Stagea.

I drive a clean stock (most parts still genuine) '83 bluebird (daily) which is pretty rare nowadays.

Mine stock-ish car had yellow brake calipers when I bought it... I thought the factory ones should be black?

Genuine HR31 JIC Coilovers.

my mate has a set of these, front shocks are farked, and we have noo idea where you'd get inserts from! He ended up going 5 stud and a set of S13 brand new JICs :yes:

his GTS-X also came with the smoking fan on the parcel shelf, auto spoiler and the compressor under the drivers seat to pump up the bolsters (jealous much).

mine unfortunately is boring spec lol

My R32 doesn't have a rear wiper :thanks: Thanks to it being a GTE model (pretty much bottom of the range). I like it better without.

I also have the option front 'auto-spoiler', although this didn't come with the car. I sourced it to buy intentionally and ended up buying one with the motors for $30. I never hooked up the motors though, I just fitted it straight to the front bar.

I also have the factory option weather visors that go above the doors, got these from Japanese Yahoo Auctions. These for 4dr are so hard to find.

For rare/unusual modifications I have a genuine Nismo cup holder, nismo leather gear knob but not just any nismo gear knob, it's got the old style logo on it. My Recaro you could say is a rare model too, it's the Recaro SR3 'trail' model.

I got 17" 5 stud Formula Mesh rims which are also very rare to come across.

I love owning unique/rare/unusual items on my car. :down:

Lets see.... Does this count.. My 32GTR didn't have any intrusion bars = much lighter..

I also had a nismo boost gauge which I never got around to installing and sold it on to someone on sau..

      R34 power steering

      By drifter17a · Posted

      Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf

      Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.

      Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.

      Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
