The interior was removed and I went to town cleaning up the mess of wiring. The Defi's were going, and I am taking a 'less is more' approach with the interior. Anything that isnt compulsory is going. No excessive gauges or tackyness. Just oem+ styles. A matching set of Nismo gauges were purchased and installed, and all wiring under the dash cleaned up. I came across a great deal on some very low km used parts.. 6boost manifold, garret t04z, turbosmart progate and a haltech PS2000 with full loom. A koyorad to keep things cool New fuel system will be going in... Its comprised of an undercar surge tank with twin Bosch 044's, twin teflon braid 8an feeds to a 14mm fuel rail, turbosmart fpr2000, 6an teflon braid return line. 100 series braid between the tank and surge. All Aeroflow gear. The surgetank was sourced from Unique Metal Fabrications and the fab work is amazing. Yep, she'll be running E85 hence the overkill fuel system. Ive not yet purchased injectors but will be going with a set of ID2000's.

March of 2012 Powercruise Sydney rolled around and I managed to grab a garage entry which was awesome. Plenty of rain but still had a great time in the car. On the last day of powercruise, I went out for two sessions in a row then had to come to a stop, oil temps got a bit hot and when reversing back into the pit garage a rattle could be heard coming from the engine. At this point I was heart broken and knew what the noise was, as much as I didnt want to believe it. Oil pump was definitely gone, and something in the bottom end broken. The car was towed home to my garage where it stayed untouched for a few months while a few things in my life changed, new job, moved house, turned 25. In the meantime I purchased an 250rwkw S13 silvia which kept me happy until I quickly grew bored of it.. Sold it off to a mate and began working on rebuilding the 34. This is where the story pretty much begins! I tossed up my options for ages until I decided that the car deserved a full rebuild... The front end was stripped and bits removed ready for disassembly.. Turbo out, the first work done,. Gearbox out! It was f**ked after powercruise. Wouldnt stay in gears and was making some interesting noises. Too many 4th gear clutch kicks down the main straight I think. The JB clutch held up great Engine starting to come out.. Engine out! Forklifts make light work of this job. Very lucky to have a spot in my dads workshop to keep the car! Engine bay will be cleaned of most of this crap.. Its all old and dirty. New engine bay will hopefully be much cleaner and less cluttered.. The engine was found to have cracked the n1 oil pump drive gear, causing a loss of oil pressure and thus the f**ked big ends. It was at this point I decided that I would be building a new motor with a new turbo and fuel system setup, and I started collecting bits. The engine was stripped down and parts put aside... I had quite a collection of bits at one stage..

Some may recognise this car as 'Satanic', owned by an SAU regular Stan a few years ago. Stan bought the car bog stock from Northshore Prestige as a 1998 R34 GTT, Triptronic auto. Stan brought the car to me for regular servicing and mods, and we both learned alot about R34s and cars in general. The car was the basis for a lifelong friendship that was formed, and when the time came for Stan to move on from the car, it was only natural that I take ownership of the car and have my way with it. A quick rundown of what was done to the car while in Stan's ownership.. The stock engine was modded with boltons, highflow, front mount, injectors, shift kit the usual. What is considered 'normal' these days was pretty new territory for R34 GTT's as they were still relatively expensive from dealerships and there wasnt very many on our shores. The stock motor popped with a dodgy tune, and we built a forged RB26/30 for her. GTK-650 turbo, FCON Vpro ecu, 500rwhp through the auto. It was at this point I purchased the car from Stan, and started to make the car my 'own'. The starcorps were dropped, and I picked up a set of BBS LM rims. I always loved these rims and with a bit of guard work the 18x10's were slotted on. My biggest problem with the car was the auto. The car never ran right with it, and ive never liked 'performance' auto's. Out came the auto and in its place an R33 5 speed was fitted. An xtreme cromoly flywheel and Jim Berry full monty clutch were installed at the same time. The FCON vPro was retuned for a safe 480rwhp on 20psi. I cleaned up the interior, moving the defi's to the triple gauge and fitted an techedge wideband o2 which gave feedback to the vpro on air/fuel ratios. An eBoost 2 controlled boost and the exhaust had an apexi ecv installed to quieten it down when required. The car was lowered slightly and it was in this form that the car stayed for quite a while. I took the car to some hillclimbs, drift days, and wakefield days and generally had a great time in the car. It performed flawlessly and was always rewarding to drive with the torque and power from the 26/30. I fitted a whiteline front swaybar and a Nismo GTPro diff after a trip to wakefield, and next time out managed a 1:09 on street tyres. Very happy for a large heavy car. I took the car to plenty of meets and drove it every opportunity I got. Heres a gallery of pics of the 34 at this stage: https://www.facebook...66155351&type=3 more to come...

At the height in those pics yep. But 15mm higher no problems. 245 tyre.

Broke a few bits at power cruise back in March being a tool. Decided to basically start again with the car, got a while to go. It's gonna be unique with some pf the things that I'm doing with the motor. I've got a Facebook album of the main progress here

Cheers. BBS LM. 18x10 +20 all around.

Took me a while to find your reply there Bill. At the moment they have 255 and 245 Federal 595's on them. They are pretty rat-shit to be honest, good for skids and that's about it.

Timeless, classic wheels. Hard to find these days in these sizes, perfect fit for GTR guards. 18x10 +20 all around. This set has never been restored, still has the original clear coat on the barrels. Some light guttering on 2 rims which would be easily cleaned up. Great opportunity to have perfect BBS LM's if you get them restored, or strip the clear and polish them up yourself. Selling only as the fitment is just too aggressive on my 34 GTT. Pickup only, Ryde. $3000 ono O466 495 7O1

Sold.
