New Project/toy 1998 R34 Nissan Skyline.

[DECEVN]

Hey all......

Just a little Into, iv decided to step away from the commodores and go to something a little different.

Had a Blue R33 that i got with a blown engine rebuilt that and was driving it for about 1 month maybe 2 at the most, ended up getting rid of that and got my hands on my latest Toy/Project.

Here she is..... Picked it up with only 1 problem wrong and its the same problem as my R33 i had, Blown engine/Rings gone......

Year: 1998

Make: Nissan

Model: R34 GL Skyline

Engine: RB25DET

Gearbox: 5 Speed Manual

Body: 2 Door Coupe

Colour: Resprayed a Brighter Yellow

Suspension: Stock

Interior: Stock

Sound System: Some after market head Unit, Don't really care about tunes when all you want is performance.

Wheels: 19" Lenso's

Mods: From what i know of a Titanium Exhaust System that's all for now.

Future Mods: A whole lot and a whole lot of money along with it.........

Stay tuned for the updates to come.... but here are a few of pic's of her when i got her home......

Here are 2 pic's when NT Performance in Footscray Owned the car...... They Sold it to my mate with a stock motor in it that he blew up, and due to him cbf with it, so he then came to me and offered it to me for my 93 R33.

When NT Performance had it, the engine in it made 530RWKW's on the Dyno in this Vid, but the did manage to squeeze 580RWKW's. Reason for them taking the engine out was because in the Skyline it was just getting too much wheel spin, So they decided to rip it out and put it in a VL set up for the strip.

Anyway here are 2 pic's and the vid, (Hope Vid works)

Hey all got a bit of an update on the car..... Spent Yesterday pulling out the engine and fixing up some melted wires from the heat of the turbo, the new engine gets picked up this Saturday then that will be making its way into the bay :-)

So the work begins on pulling the engine out.....

Everything is all unbolted and Engine is ready to be lifted out.

Out it comes with my Uncle supervising.

Came out with no issues.

Random Shot coz i can :-)

Now for the nightmare to be fixed.

The wiring which needed to be replaced due to the heat of the turbo melting the wire's together.

Seeing as i was replacing that part of the loom I decided to extend the wire's to run behind the guard so I wont have to worry about the loom melting every again from the heat of the Turbo :-)

Where the new loom feed's into.

And this is where the loom comes out to the plugs, Nice and neat Just the way i like.

And a pic that my Mummy took of me soldering to make the new Loom.

Yer i had it on due to needing a running car but after it been on there a few times i thought to myself ill just fix it, and coz i love it heaps. So i went on the hunt for an engine and the timing couldn't have got any better even if i planed it. Found an engine on eBay with a New Exedy HD Button Clutch at $650 with 6 0r 7 days left, as soon as i seen it i was like that's mine..........Had to get my uncle to watch the auction for me as i was at work and my max bid was 1k Here i am thinking iv got no chance of winning it because it will go for alot more got a SMS from my uncle saying "its yours!" I was surprised to say the least but extremely happy winning it at $860. and at that price you can not complain about.

After getting the engine i finished cleaning up the engine looms with new plastic tubing and taping it all. then the engine was ready to drop in, still got a few things to get like Turbo set up, FMIC, Tyres, get it tuned, RWC, Rego then Enjoy driving it.

Here are some pic's

Finished work at 12am and started to get stuck into it untill about 2.30am

Looks so much neater.

Got up later that morning about 8am and finished putting motor in.

Was getting too hot and could feel myself getting sun burnt so had to put bonnet back on to give me a bit of shade :-P

[DECEVN]

Got my radiator in the post this morning, very happy with it, next week (payday) ill get the new water pump, timing belt and a few other little things.......

Here's the pic's

Engine with Water Pump Removed.

What I came home too after dropping my girlfriend at the Train Station.

Stay Tuned......

Where did you get the fans/shroud from?

[DECEVN]

Got it from eBay a company called YY Cooling Systems Auto Parts in Hallam Victoria.

Got Bored today and it was a nice day so decided to go and look at the 34 to try and find something to do to it........ took the rag out of the throttle body and had a look in it........ OMG it was filthy so took the time to give it a good clean. Used WD40 and a bit of 2000 Grit sand paper and what a difference it made, looks Brand New!

After:
