Ok currently I have a VS 5L Commodore, but want to get an R34 4 door...I've been looking on Prestige and Imports 101 to import...but I need some inspiration for kits, rims etc once she gets here!

If anyone has some hot pics of black or white R34 4 doors (that have been modded...not stock!), can they please post them up here, or point me in the right direction :unsure:

Cheers!

Cos 4 doors rock!

Putting a GTR front end on it will look weird because it's wider, also I think it's a bit lame trying to pretend it's something that it's not. You can make a GTT look tough without pretending it's a GTR if you want.

Manuals are considerably more expensive. White used to be flavour of the year in 2005, now it seems manual silver sedan's are hot property in japan. Anyone notice a correlation with Blitz's choice of D1 cars?

Thanks guys :D

Its not a matter of me wanting it to look like a GTR, its the fact that all the other front bumpers are wank, GTR is more subtle and its the only one I like. Its not like I'm gonna badge it GTR or anything like that :)

Any suggestions for import websites where I can buy the car?

Hah yeah those 2 dont do anythin for me, but the one that n15m0 posted is f**ken luuuuuuuuurvely, I dont wanna go overboards with kit n stuff, just want it dumped and phat! Haha yeah laugh it up!

Please feel free to answer any questions that you can, I need all the help I can get...

How do you minimise lag?

Whats the best sounding exhaust for that car without sounding like wet fart?

What are some other importing sites?

Who here owns one and tell me why you like it!!

Thanks again! :(

off topic, but i was wondering how funkymonkey found those cars on j-spec site giving qoutes in aud, all i can find is the mailing list of cars and a canadian one that gives quotes in canadian dollars :Phttp://www.j-specimports.ca/index.php?page=list/index.php

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
