just an ebay GT3582 with a Kinugawa compressor housing. See above for RB25 gearbox links. I got mine 2nd hand

Seems like it will never be finished!

Street car with the odd recreational track day. Mostly setup for country road spirited drives. I'd be lying if I said the bling factor didn't have a part to pay in wanting the big 324mm rotors lol

Hi all, I bought some S14 calipers for my R31 with the expectation to space them out to 33 GTR rotors. I have since realized they likely won't fit under 16 inch wheels. As S14 rotors are 180mm and R33 are 296mm and there is nothing available to space the S14 rotors to 296mm I am left in a meh situation. Is it a considerable difference? I am unsure about whether to "upgrade" to R33 calipers now. Thanks

Looks good man! And thanks yeah it has definitely snowballed lol. Any other plans for your car?

Nah keep it in Aussie haha

They can be, don't have the car slammed and have the dampening set to a good setting and it will feel nice.

Welcome! There is plenty of info to help you I'm sure, if there isn't just ask! Also thanks for keeping this site alive as it really is superior to anything else imo.

Most people go for adjustable coil overs these days, I would assume there isn't really a market for people wanting to do "modest" mods to their skylines like lowering springs. I would be leaning towards a nice set of BC's or MCA's personally. You would have to consult Bilstien for that, we don't know the product that you're looking at. Again coilovers can be set to any height and multiple levels of dampening - I'm sure you already know this.

For a daily they go good, I have a VE SSV myself. not crazy amounts of power but spritey enough to make driving not a chore. And it doesnt come with all of the headaches of driving a skyline lol.

Would love for it to become a thing again, although I know that's unrealistic. I really dislike facebook groups. I try to post on SAU when I have news about my build etc.

Hey again Quick update to the build The car is set to be mod plated next monday! (Yay), finally the car can be on Special Interest rego and it won't cost me money to be on jack stands ahahaa for anyone that was interested to get the car into a legal state for the mod plate I had to use: Stock/VLT ECU NA/Brown top injectors stock turbo coilovers with no top adjustment (camber etc) stock wheels stock LCA's get a bunch of other little stuff done such as the speedo, handbrake. I'm very excited to actually properly start the build following this. Here is some pics/stuff I have bought for the car recently. I bought some venations for the car, I think they look alright lol I got a blue Ti dash mat, quite suits the whole 80s feel I got some HR31 electronic mirrors and the button for them, 100% a novelty but it's cool lol. As things go, I never expected it to end up this way but it snowballs. I'm now anticipating to buy a new 25 box (already have a modded driveshaft for it). I then started thinking well why am I using a 15 year old ECU when the Elite series has so much more protection and other stuff, like flex fuel, throttle by wire, so I'm expecting to buy an Elite 1500 for the car. I then decided well I'm going to be buying a new ECU and well why not make the most of it... 220kw isnt that much anyway. So i'm going to build the bottom end and paint the bay whilst the engine is out. I am currently doing my research but 350-400KW would be pretty mental I believe. I will research what is involved and keep you guys updated. I will post more after the car is on SI rego, that's when the fun can really begin.

They're $3750 new from Nissan. People are trying to charge that for 2nd hand ones that have done 4th gear reverse entry drifts on Simmons plains for the past 15 years. Personally I wouldn't spend more than $1500 on a used box, the peace of mind is worth the extra coin.
