Howdy again!

So, I took the plunge and bought a R34 GTT which I must say I'm absolutely stoked with owning.. after fiddling with the stock seat I can comfortably drive around town. (for those who helped with info on my last post)

- What's the best way of obtaining a stock airbox snorkel? Basically the previous owner put on a Apexi pod filter.. and I cannot stand the induction noise it makes. I do have the airbox itself just not the snorkel.

- Anyone have any good info relating to BC coil overs for daily driving? I've had a read around but I'm fairly lost when it comes to coil overs.

I am planning to make some handling & minor cosmetic changes in the near future ideally including some coil overs and wheels. If anyone could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

I guess to sum this up, I don't plan on chasing huge HP numbers more so modications to tackle the twisty bits.

1. For Sale section

2. Totally depends on budget, spring rate choice etc. Have a read of the Suspension Section, heaps of info to let you make your mind up. Everyone is different as to what they prefer.

I was talking to OTR in Clayton and there were saying they can get a little bumpy if you're using it on the road alot. Although if you're like me and like the feel of a stiffer ride to give you that "sporty" feel I'd definitely go for them. If I could afford it I'd go buy them. Tein's are supposed to be softer but are more expensive new. Just depends on what you're after I guess

      Turn signal wiring question

      By OakvilleGTR · Posted

      Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..

      Lower A arm Skyline v35

      The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.

      Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????

      Looking for autoelectrician in Perth who can do the OEM to double din stereo upgrade.

      Thanks Paul I reached out to Autotainment but they no longer work on JDM cars as the guy who used to do the work moved on and is no longer doing that kind of work. I am talking with Level Up Audio though.
