Hi di, and welcome.

I like your choice, having a rather nice Midnight Purple GTR33 myself (as well as the manual and auto GTS25t versions).

Most people who worry about the costs either never had a GTR or have a busted arse R32 that has been flogged or smashed. Then fixing them can be exxy as every scamming workshop adds heaps as soon as you mention GTR. Some items cost more, like larger rubber and they use a little more fuel due to lugging extra weight but otherwise are almost dollar for dollar to run as a nice GTS25t.

Also I don't know what the insurance grief is as I only pay about $850 fully comp, but that company has almost no imports so the accident repair rates are almost non-existent, and don't ask cos then everyone will want to use them (and there go my good rates;))

Before you take Snowies advice ask what his finders fee is B) :cheers mate: but if he reckons it's good then take a look.

Again, good luck finding a nice one.

    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
    • street use or race track, what hose size and why? what factors change with the hose size options ?   see most comon is an10. when you see most oem external coolers are closer to an12? does high volume oil pump like nitto need an12 or 10 be just fine
