Your doing well for a young guy living on the Nth American continent:)

All the yanks seem to have trouble getting a Skyline over that side of the world, but may Canuks are smarter.

You could check out my links for a good way to waste a lot of perfectly good cash on something you will never get your money back on. BUT DAMN, you will probably enjoy yourself:)

P.S. comin to OZ for the Comm. Games? Plenty of Skylines here.

First of all get a pod filter (or easy flow stock filter) and a largish exhaust this will help it breath much better, rev easier and produce a bit more power. next I'd go the suspension, stiffer shocks neoprene bushes and pineapples to stop the rear end floating, from there you can spend lots a money on all sorts of things ECU, intercooler, turbo, cams, injectors the list go on and on

Hello, my name is josh. i live in alberta canada. i i just got a 1990 Skyline GTS-T Type M and just what to now of some good mods to do. and also some web pages will help also thanks

-Josh

Use the search function for heaps of info

Full 3" exhaust should be the first thing you do from the turbo back including a high flow cat.

Cold air intake - panel filter in airbox or pod with heat sheild

Up the boost 10 to12psi - either use a electronic boost controller or a bleed valve.

after these mods id go a intercooler kit or a new ECU.

    • No need to drill any holes. There's plenty of access to reach through and behind all of that steel to "push" from behind with a pulling action on the slide hammer. There's all sorts of attachments you can screw on the end of them.
    • Yea the photos aren't the best. When I was pulling the bumper and headlights out there was a bodyshop guy looking on for it, there is a slight bend behind where the passenger headlight is, but we're talking a few MM and there is a little bit of a bend for the reo. That said it's supposedly well within the "Drill a hole in it and pull it out with a slide hammer to be close enough" and be on our way. The other option is to buy a GTR reo for the GTR bumper bits but this is a $2000+ fix for something Mr Hammer can probably do 99% of the job for and everything will/can line up pretty closely-to-good-enough.
    • That's a write off for sure... Part out? 😛 I kid. It looks like the rad support has a minor minor bend in it too where the rep support sits near. Could just be the photos (and me not wearing my glasses right now). Worst case is you can buy a new radiator support, have it swapped over, and leave the car in paint jail for 12 to 18 months while you build the motor to handle twin turbos or a Harrop SC...
    • It seems the definition of "Gregging" something might need to be expanded?
    • This is why I suggested that there is really nothing that can safely be done in the engine bay at this budget level. Just the work to reassure yourself that the engine won't instantly crap itself the moment the boost gets turned up will wear out the piggy bank long before the first turbo gets installed. Spend $10k and still not have any extra performance? My tip is a version of our standard advice from 15 years ago about buying a GTR, which is not to buy one unless you can afford to buy two. The new version is not to modify a GTR unless you have all the funds required to do it all at once, properly, and enough to rebuild it after it blows up.
