[Wongy]

Hi, my name is Nathan and im from Sydney and i recently acquired a 1999 black R34 GTR V-Spec, the R34 GTR has been a dream car to me since 2fast 2furious xD, came from a Honda Integra DC5R so i know nothing haha, hope to learn alot of things from people on this forum.

Just a few pics

I hope you give me a wave or beep if u see me driving, or even put the window down and say hi haha.

Keen to make new friends with the same passion for cars as me

Hi Nathan, I'm going to wildly guess that your last name is Wong, funny because I have a friend named Nathan Wong...who has a S15 but no GTR ahha.

Great looking car, what mods are on it? Which part of Sydney are you in? members will definitely say hi with a wave, or a flash!

GTR in Black - awesome. Great buy mate and welcome to the forum. Thanks for posting pics.

Thanks for the warm welcomes first mod I think are hids xD gotta source the ballasts that got taken off when conpliancing the car, if not might buy HID kit, anyone got other suggestions? And I think the importer modded the wiring too to fit this globe, shit globe =/

[darksky34]

yeah looks like your headlights got nice and chopped up during compliance. random stab in the dark but if you can afford a GTR i think you might be able to afford this: go and get custom projector headlights off EVOXENON (just google him, or look on facebook) - he does these very VERY nice custom headlights. or you could have a go at doing them yourself - buy the morimoto projector headlight kits!

At work atm but will defs check it out, so these are the whole headlight arnt they, not just ballast and globe? Might not go to that much of a hassle =/ might just get a hid kit xD if I get the custom headlight the adjustor will still work?

[darksky34]

yes they are the whole headlight BUT as i said you can just buy the ballast and globe and put it in yourself (with a bit of modification if you're comfortable with). Not too sure on the headlight adjustor part..does it work now? if so i can't see too much of a problem with why it wouldn't after some customs!

[Wongy]

Was thinking just buying a hid kit and fitting that instead xD much easier and cheaper

Quick update: Havent dont much with car, just usual wash, but there has been a problem that the previous owner said it would randomly stall, that being said it happened, but whilst I was driving sometimes it didnt want to go no matter how hard I stepped on the accelerator, and when it did stall at the lights, i tried cranking it over and it wouldnt start until i pressed the lock and unlock button on the car remote, we first thought it was the immobiliser, turns out it wasnt, then we thought it was the key barrel cuz the key could be pulled out it was so smooth, so we used the spare keys, problem still persisted, then made me thought, could be this control unit thing that came with the car, so took it down to IS motorsport for indy to look at and he pulled it out and car hasnt done this random stalling and losing power issue again

The culprit

indy said that the guy who installed it had wrong settings so that would have affected it, so happy car runs normal next up is replacing clutch asked for a quote on a HD clutch kit with flywheel too, or might stick with OEM, will have to see

Until next time
