R34 Lady in Belgium :D

Hey everyone 

I'm Amber, I hail from Brisbane but live in Belgium and I would like to introduce you all to my baby, my R34 GTT "Nozomi".

I found her in 2015 hiding out in someones garage, he had her imported and registered in 2010 - 2011. It was meant to be a 'project' car with his sons but he didn't get much further than reupholstering, getting rid of the limiter and changing the odo over. It has 63000KMs and new coilpacks, got the goodies as well that he already bought but never fitted incl FMIC and HKS hi power exhaust line. The FMIC didn't fit so I sold it and got an autobahn88 one now. The line is so loud and obnoxious even my deaf 92 yr old neighbor hears me leave in the morning. Also changed the filter over to Blitz advantage but for the time being, engine is stock.

Last time I took her into the garage, my expert told me that she was Nismo down to the suspension! And rear-right is busted so fantastic! Plans for the year is a new ECU + map, new injectors, pump etc. See how she goes from there. And also paint the covers and maybe chroming the intake.

Cheers guys!

Thanks guys! ^-^

The R33 and 34's arent a very common sight, R32's are very popular because they can be registered as "old timers" and pay a whopping 35 euro per year in rego. Insurance is miniscule as well and the engine can be modified to your hearts content.  

 

welcome to the forums!

It certainly appears your car has the "nismo" bodykit similar to the altia kit but with a different rear bumper. My old R34 had the exact same bodykit.

My car also came with Bilstein suspension from factory, if yours is the same maybe this was a package offered from the dealerships in japan?

Belgium is RHD right? Is it much hassle driving a LHD car over there?

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
