  1. Hi all, I am looking to purchase an r32 gtst. There seems to be several auto's floating around in great condition, and i'm inclined to believe these have been less thrashed than most of the manuals around. So, I am considering the conversion route. I have found a few threads on DIY guides, but time is at a premium these days, and I don't have enough to to the conversion myself. Has anyone had a sydney/newcastle shop do a drive in/drive out conversion? I.e. - I don't have to fish around wreckers to buy boxes, tailshafts, pedals, master cyl's etc, they do the whole kit. Sure, I know this will cost alot but then the autos are a few grand cheaper to begin with. I rang Croydon, they weren't prepared to do it, and couldn't/wouldn't recommend who would do it. So - who's been down this road before?
  2. Bump. Seats now $230. Perfect nick. PM or call me for enquiries please. 0401 167 842
  3. It seems true about the compatability of older Nissan driveline components. At any rate, Im sure it can be done. The car in question was not mine, and has since been sold so I'm still keeping one eye on the market. Thanks for your input BAD
  4. Item:Pair of R33 Gst-t series 2 front seats Location:Gosford, NSW Item Condition:Perfect, can't see a blemish on them Reason for Selling:No longer required Price and Payment Conditions:Let's say around $230 for the set. Extra Info:I'm open to offers, would rather clear some room in my house. Yes, this sale is for a pair, even though the pictures only show 1 seat. I guarantee the other is in the same condition. Contact Details:Either reply via thread or PM as I can check most days. Or call my mobile - 0401 167 842. Thanks, Scott
  5. Thanks Elk, I think I follow what you've done. The other thing that crossed my mind is the that the axle splines may not match between the N/A and turbo models, but I still can't find anyone to confirm this based on experience. Having said that, the car in question has gone now anyway, so I have more time to ponder.... Cheers for your thoughts. Scott
  6. Hi all, This is my first post, I have searched extensively but cannot find the answers I'm looking for, I hope someone here can offer some help. First up, I'm considering bringing in a nice 4 door r32 gts (non turbo) which I have come across. I'm a big fan of N/A reliability, hence considering this option over a gts-t, and a believer that with sorted suspension and a diet, an underpowered car can be very enjoyable to drive (I recently owned a 4a-ge sprinter, good case in point). The car in question has very low km, and appears to be very tidy, whilst I shy away from the idea of buying a thrashed gts-t with 3 x times the km locally. My primary concern is whether or not an aftermarket mechanical LSD centre for a gts-t can be bolted into the r32 non turbo (short nose) R200 diff housing. Now, I am new to skylines (& Nissan's in general) however after hours of searching forums and sites, I cannot find a concrete answer. I suspect not, given the gts and gts-t housings seem to have different bolt patterns to the axle housing (5 bolt & 6 bolt?). Surely someone has come across this issue in a gts + t conversion? Or is it a simpler task to buy a complete disc to disc gts-t rear end (which I presume should bolt straight in) and then look to a mechanical LSD centre for it? Of course I have the 5 stud issue to contend with then aswell..... *EDIT- I just recalled that given HICAS was standard on gts-t's, this may present some issues using a complete rear end in the gts - but then I don't want HICAS anyhow. This gts has no sunroof, so I presume it is not the optioned up model that came with HICAS.* So - can anyone offer some advice please? And while I'm here - can anyone verify that aftermarket coilover struts sold for gts-t models will bolt up to the standard gts links? I have read this is fine, but given the wheel stud pattern difference, I am concerned if this is the only difference in the multi-link front end between models. The car will be a daily driver, but I do intend venture to tracks from now on rather than having my fun down the local mountain roads which are far from safe or practical for spirited driving. Thanks for your time.
