Hello Claire!

Great to have you on board. No doubt you will be welcomed by us all. It helps that you are a car loving female. It just makes it so easy for us to accept you :(

Anyway what is the car scene like over there? I want to maybe go over there to work and play for a year. Any advice in this regard would be great.

Welcome and enjoy! :burnout:

Thanks everyone for the warm reception :(

The Skyline scene is huge! There is a forum like this with many owners and enthusiasts who just love the car! The forum have regular meetings all round the UK and arrange track days, rollin roads etc.. Check it out www.gtr.co.uk they are a very friendly bunch of lads and lasses.

As for getting over here and working, Im not sure to be honest. I dont think you need sponsorship, best to check tho'. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

Hope to see you in good ole blighty next year!

    • Hi All, I'm based in Sydney and want to get hold of 4 stock R34 GTT wheel caps as pictured. Cheers
    • Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..
    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.
