The reason I'm so interested in the GXi is because I'm thinking about getting one as my first car, possibly to swap an SR20 in. And I can't get a GTS-T because my parents won't let me get a fast car (Craig, the ER34 I was talking to you about earlier was for my dad, who is looking to import one ;) ).

i thought you were building a game with it

The reason we want info about this is because we want to include a base model car as part of a game mod.

same with the rs4, er43 hr34... all the others you asked about.

its ok man im just busting your balls.

in all seriousness while your on your ps just drive a hatch back or camry or whatever, no need to pay big money for a shit car that looks like the fast cars.

just save your money for a good car when your licenced to buy one

EVERYONE will say they wished they did that.

We are building a game mod with the FR32.. we just can't give you much info about it because it's still very early in development :V

Thanks for your advice, I truly appreciate it ;) I'll drive my dad's Avalon on my P's then ;) But, in the future, if a FR32 comes for sale for a cheap price, should I think about buying it and swapping an SR20 in?

As I believe no importer will ever import the FR32, ask yourself, is it worth...

1. Spend money purchasing the FR32 from Japan

2. Spend the money shipping it to Australia

3. Spend the money putting it through compliance

4. Spend the money registering

5. Spend the money buying the SR20 / gearbox / diff / brakes

6. Spend the money fitting the SR20 / gearbox / diff / brakes

7. Spend the money engineering your now modified FR32

8. Spend the money insuring your now modified FR32

If you answered yes to all these questions and the gumbyment changes the rules to allow you to import a FR32, then draw up a plan on how to make it happen and then make it happen.

Personally, to me it makes much more sense to buy a R32 rolling shell that's already here in Australia and fit the engine / gearbox / whatever else it takes to have a working car if I really wanted a SR20 powered R32

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Oh yeah forgot to also mention need to also unplug the IACV as well. Thanks for the reminder @MBS206 Unplugging the TPS takes it out of closed loop so you're able to screw down the IACV without the ECU trying to add/subtract timing to maintain the idle (not sure PowerFC can even do this, but Nistune and the OEM definitely does)

      Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T 1999

      By Bman1296 · Posted

      For sale is my 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T, tuned to 234 kW / 313 hp. I've had the car for a few years as my daily driver. The car is original (as far as Skylines go), with only a few minor upgrades to enhance performance and driving experience, as typical for such a car of its age. Overall, it is in great condition with no body rust, thanks to its earlier import date. It features a top-notch security system (not literally, but it's great!) with remote start and still functional 4-wheel steering via HICAS. It comes with several performance and handling upgrades, including:     Hypergear 450HP Turbocharger running 17 PSI boost, installed mid-2021 by Jaustech     550cc injectors     Nistune ECU     Front-Mount Return-Flow Intercooler     X-Force Stainless Steel Exhaust     Upgraded engine mounts     Bottom end bearings replaced     BC Coilovers     Lenso DR1 rims     Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE003 TL 245/40R18 97W tires, fitted early 2023 The interior is mostly stock, with a few additions:     Viper Satellite Tracking System with remote start     Bluetooth Double-Din Touchscreen Head Unit     Steering wheel cover Cons:     A few paint imperfections here and there     Driver’s seat shows more wear than the others. It's not torn at all, but I've added a seat cover to protect its condition. I also have a CarVX Vehicle History report available for serious buyers, so you don’t need to purchase it yourself. Price: $26,000 ONO.

      Troubleshooting - motor wont turn over

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I've had two suzukis in the past have an extremely hard time turning over and not starting after sitting for a few weeks. Ended up the alternator would seize up causing the starter to force. Same issue both times.  Maybe they're sourcing their alternators from the same place...

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      On the R34 can't you just unplug the IACV? This is the way I've always done it on the R33. Disconnect IACV, get it idling around 650rpm, and then do a power reset on the ECU to get it to relearn idle (factory ECU).   The big reason no one has touched on as to why you'd want to get the base idle right, is that it means the computer needs to make smaller adjustments to get a good idle at 700-750rpm.   Also, cleaning the IACV won't normally make the car suddenly idle lower or higher. The main issue with the IACV gumming up is that the valve sticks. This means the inputs the ECU gives, aren't translating to changes in air flow. This can cause idle choppy ness as the ECU is now needing to give a lot of input to get movement, but then it moves too far, and then has to do the same in reverse, and it can mean the ECU can't catch stalls quickly either.
