Mods?


Recommended Posts

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.

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
