Hey guys, the name's joel. I'm new to the SAU forum and am the new owner of a 1998 ER34 :D
This is my first Nissan/skyline/turbo and I'm really happy with it!

2nd Australian owner and only has 81,000kms!

Came with a few modifications such as:

Full Nismo body kit

Sound System (will probably rip out the sub/amp. Will replace head unit eventually)
PDW 18" Wheels (will be replaced ASAP, probably going with XD9's)
HKS Mushroom

Fujitsubo Legalis Super R Muffler (not sure whether to keep and try and locate the rest of the system or just go full new system)

Came with factory floor mats and weather shields, unfortunately a mate accidentally snapped one so need to find another set or might get some carbon ones.

First mods I'll do will be pretty basic: wheels, coils, exhaust, FMIC, boost controller and BOV to start off with. Might de-wing it, maybe.

Only have photos from the carsales ad at the moment, will take and upload my own when I get a chance, she needs a wash first :D

  • 4 months later...

Haven't updated this in months, progress has been slow but nevertheless!

Acquired some tein monoflex coilovers from a mate, practically brand new! Went in with ease over a sunny afternoon.

Then a few days ago finally acquired some new wheels!
Preowned Rays Volk TE37 in bronze

F: 18x8.5 +30

R: 18x9.5 +38

Popped them on the next arvo and loving the fitment! Nothing too crazy, didnt need any guard work either.

Just need to buy some new wheel nuts as I dont like my current ones and to source some centre caps too.

Put a nasty scratch in my rear bumper backing out of our new driveway the other day :/ will be next on the list to do!

That's it for now, more parts to come hopefully in the near future, which will include full exhaust, front mount, BOV, boost controller and tune.

    • Took it for a drive to do some logs, I’m pretty sure my voltage issues and electrical noise issues are gone, I’ve sent a log to Adam and am waiting to hear back with confirmation  att.K23U9eHyiEJxixH6y1__GQfuqK0EgIoDgQFTs9G8x_w.mp4   idle video from that day just because 
    • Went looking at mine, reading off the tyre, presumably these are 1st week of 2003. Still hold air (I haven't had to pump them up in over 12 months!)     I couldn't quickly find the date on the front tyres, they were fitted around 2008 to the rims, so probably not quite as old, but they have a lot more dry rot cracks in them. Still hold air.
    • I am now intrigued to go check the dates on the tyres on my Skyline... We need a game of who has the oldest tyre still holding a car up, and successfully holding air (for longer than a 2 weeks I feel is successful air holding).   I feel your tyres may be beating mine
    • Ok, still waiting for a date to get the cams installed on the MX5, why so long, because MX5 Mania has received a few new sets of different cams with different specs for the MZR and are currently trialling them, and working out what is best for 2.5 "powers" with stock internals, in the end if I go bigger than the Kelford stage 1 cams I'll need to look at the valve springs  Hopefully I'll get the news on them next week As for the boot of the car getting fixed, I hopefully pick it up early next week, I was sweating on picking it up yesterday but, meh, it was not to be, so ne weekend cruising for me
    • Ok got some old tyres for you guys...my car has been sitting around un-driven for about 6 years now. I had it on the original rims with the shitty compliance tyres it got it with back in 2006, which were manufactured in 2004... Sidewalls eventually rotted and split open, obviously no air in them and the rims were holding the car up. Just swapped them with some 17" Work rims and tyres which are probably 10+ years old too but at least holding air
