Good morning ladies n gents! my name is rak and Im newbie here drving r34 gt.

i imported my gt 2 month ago and waited for it so long because of tsunami -_-

Btw, my gf also imported r34gt recently.

So, now we both drive r34 gt and all my mates say beautiful skyline couple.

once she got her r34, the problem begins.................. she says it's god damn too slow.

she keeps saying wanna change car car car car! im sick of the word CHANGE CHANGE

I asked her to buy a gtt or gtr and she refused because she ONLY wants to drive gtr.

then I asked "Can u drive manual Miss automatic? she said she cant.

Sorry about rubbishs above..

Serious question! Please not teasing me or swearing at me. IS IT POSSIBLE TO MAKE R34 GT to GTR?

Not just looks, she wants to put twin turbo into her r34 gt automatic.

I hope there are professional reply to understand easily and if its possible, expected total cost.

ps. one more thing.. she wants to keep the engine. wanna only get twin turbo and extra to support the engine. Help me bros....

Tell her to forget it. If she wants power, sell the GT. She says she only wants a GTR, and yet she wants to keep the GT and the high comp NA motor? whistling.gif

I went down the path of converting my GT to a GTT a bit over a year ago. I went with the most efficient option of importing a donor car from Japan and swapping everything over, so it was all just straight swapping. All up it probably cost me around 10k, I don't even want to add it up to know for sure. I had my reasons for doing the conversion, and to be honest if I went back I would probably do it all again. But I still recommend anyone who asks me to sell their car and buy a factory turbo model. It's nothing but headaches to convert.

What I did was far simpler than what you are proposing. If you are as serious as you say, I suggest you go and do some research mate (read this thread first http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/33407-how-to-turbo-your-na/ ), you will quickly discover how big a job you are looking at. And then you have an unreliable twin turbo NA motor strapped to a crappy auto transmission with rubbish handling and terrible brakes. It's a terrible idea.

Rak, I like you mate. your a good bloke.

there is no way a high comp NA 25GT is even going to be as fast as a basic GTT with a cat back exhaust.

seriously, sell the 25GT and buy here a R34 GTT auto. you can put a GTR kit on it, upgrade turbo etc (no need for twin turbo, a larger single turbo is fine and can make plenty of power) and she will have a plenty fast car that is still auto but will look and go like a GTR. plus the turbo models have better brakes which is important too.

now, we need some pics of your GF driving. :action-smiley-069:

GTR Engine Conversion + Gear Box / RB26 ECU / Exhaust / Brakes / Suspension / Wheels / Tyres etc...

+ Mechanical Labor for doing all that, then it will need to be tuned and Engineers Cert for the Engine Conversion = $$$$

Sell R34 GT and buy R34 GTR.

    • I recently got their dbw 74mm throttle body and pedal kit. It is sensational quality especially the wiring harnesses. Unfortunately I can’t answer u about the fitment to stock inlet manifold as I’m going Rahjab Racing forward plenum. Only one thing to be careful of is understand u have to pay gst and import fees if your purchase is over $1,000 in one shipment.
    • yeah i agree paint match stops it from standing out so much, oh that's actually really good to know i was wondering if it would help with air flow now actually having an outlet in the bonnet. Will have to focus on ducting into and out of the radiator now to make the most of it.
    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.
