hey there

i'm looking at buying a skyline (GTR34) and funnily enough i'm still on my Ps.

does anyone know if it is possible to remove the twin turbos from the engine?

and what will need to be done.. such as new manifolds and whatnot?

or would i just be a better idea, to buy a second engine to fit until i'm off my P's?

any help would be great.

thanks

yup school holidays it is

kids should be tagged with a microchip these days... that way as soon as they get near a computer MSN automatically opens up, and they're restricted from posting nothing other than "OMG","WTF","BBQ","lollolol","sXc" and "yUpZ" on automotive forums.

Hehe your real name is super tim?

what do you expect to get when you say you want a GTR, let alone an r34. and your on your P's...

you not making a good impression of the younger guys to the grownups@!

i think im 'kool, wikid and awsem' enough to be driving my car... but you have to consider petrol is expensive, insurance is a bitch, the list goes on if you dont have a commo. which is why i dont have insurance but thats ok, because i dont have any money for petrol either.

come to think of it, a poster of a skyline in my garage would have been much cheaper.

by the way, funkymonkey you had me at "BBQ"

:lol:

Umm... I tought the school holiday is over a week ago must be one of rich-ass private school kids with a parents who throws lots of cash...

Why the hell you want to change the engine on GT-R? It spoils the dymanic of the Skyline breed.

Why not buy 25GT since it's NA... This way, insurance will be less bitcher than GT-R.

Sure, everyone dreams about owning R34 GT-R... we all do.

Cheers

Grant

    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
