Hey guys i recently got my P's and bought a r34 sedan skyline, I've only had it for 2 week's but alot has changed since then, i have only been doing cosmetic work lately like smoking the front, back and side light's and indicator's (except for my headlight's) but i recently got springs put in while i was getting new rim's so i thought i'd post some picture's up to see what people think all honest opinion's are welcome.

what it first looked like. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/715/620399520.jpg/

after i had the springs, rims, and smoked all the light's i mentioned. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/521/88452661634145838171420.jpg/

Thanks natro i thought about it and i really want to do it myself to learn about car's more but i wonder is it really worth the doller's i am going to put into it, alot of people telling me just buy a gt-t but as i stated i would like to learn about car's more so i would like to put in the turbo kit myself.

Not just cheaper. Better.

There's a load more hassles than just converting it, even when you're done it will give you headaches for the rest of your ownership. Just sell it, get a GTT.

Falling in love with a Non turbo skyline is like falling in love with a fat Chick, no thanks.

In 2 years time you will be so over it.

.... I put a V8 in my NA, it's a whole new game of falling in love, except the car looks exactly how I want it to :), if ur cashed up and love ur NA u can keep it.

It's hard to go 2 years in a "car" and not get an attachment to it

      Just a follow-up on this topic. From what I can tell so far the rusty residue on the engine block might be unrelated to a coolant leak or maybe just older than anticipated. After driving it from the winter garage to my friend's garage I could not see any new traces of coolant leaking there, but I will test this properly once I was able to fully warm up the car and drive it for a bit. I think I can agree that the whole porous engine block stuff is kind of nonsense, but there is just a silly amount of true, false and half-true information on anything Skyline-related on the internet.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      I removed the IACV, cleaned it and reinstalled.  I found a video on youtube that helped with the whole process, the guy then said the idle needed to be set, so the process was to get the vehicle up to operating temperature, unplug the TPS, set the idle screw in the IACV so the RPMs were around 600, then plug the TPS back in.  After I reinstalled the IACV, the car started (because, it was a cold start), once it warmed up, the car died, I adjusted the idle screw to see if that helped anything, it did not, I had to wait about 3-5 minutes, then the car would start back up. Only to shortly cut out, and only crank.  I loosened the TPS to see if adjusting that would do anything, and when I would rotate the sensor clockwise, there was a humming noise, but it would go away when I got the sensor in the horizontal position.  It only made the hum noise with the key on.  What do you guys think? 20250414_172604.mp4

      Troubleshooting - motor wont turn over

      Quick update.  The engine grounding strap was replaced, the engine is now happily running.  Tested the voltage drop before replacing the strap, was about 1.2ish volts down between engine to battery, chassis to battery. With the new grounding strap, pretty much no voltage drop at all.
