Hi Guys,

Been 10 years in the making but have finally taken ownership of a prestige condition 2001 R34 GTR Vspec 2 in Bayside Blue. This has been one of my all time dream cars! Have been in the car scene for over 15 years, starting with a 81 Pulsar, to a Honda Civic show car, to drift weapon 180sx, to a pimped s2000, to a balls to the wall 310kws Evo and finally to the GTR!! So let the build begin!

Vehicle:

2001 Nissan Skyline GTR V-Spec 2 in Bayside Blue

Engine:

RB26DETT

Current Mods:

Apexi Power FC

HKS 120mm Intercooler

HKS Piping

HKS Dump pipes

HKS Front pipes

HKS Cat back "Silent Power" Exhaust

HKS EVS Boost controller

Trust BOV's

Aftermarket 2 way Rear Diff.

Current power 262kws @ the wheels (about to be retuned)

Future Engine Mods:

Sounds sweet but ull need a bigger exhaust than the tomei system. Will need full 4" exhaust for over 400kw

Have to agree. Tomie Ti is only 3.5inches. For your power output it will be restrictive. Is this a a streeter or mainly racing use?

If predominantly racing use do away with the cat and get more exhaust flow.

BTW nice car.

Sweet, cheers guys. Is there any 4" titanium on the market?

Also missed in the above mods will be getting the following:

Quickspool Custom High Mount Steam Pipe Manifold

50mm External Gate (Brand yet to be decided)

Adjustable Cam Gears

Tomei Baffles and Oil restrictors

N1 Oil Pump

ARP Head Studs

And a few other things as they become needed.

Pads and rotors will also be upgraded when the time comes.

I will be working on stages with this new project starting with cosmetic/suspension and wheels then working my way to the engine build.

Here is a few pics. Plates have now been changed to personalized QLD plates.

Cheers Ants, Car will be a Sunday driver/time attack. How restrictive is a highflow cat at that power range?

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
