I currently own a GTR and am looking at doing a bit of a project car. I used to own a R-31 skyline and found them to be a good car to drift. Plus i'm pretty sure RB20 and 25's bolt in pretty easy. (love the RB's.) If I went with a pintara/R31 Skyline shell is it a straight bolt in for the engine and gear box?? Has anyone got pics and info on doing this?? Wat are some other options?? Blue bird, KE70?? Any help would be awsome.

Cheers fellas

Toyota cressida with 2JZ. easily. Or even a 1JZ if you can't afford the 2J upgrade. Its all relatively simple to do as the chassis came with a 1JZ in japan (but not in Australia).

Make sure you have the lace doiley's on the seats and a box of tissues on the back parcel shelf for added sleeper factorial.

Then you drift it like so:

Nah, you guys got it all wrong...

1983 Toyota Tercel SR5 wagon, with the 4WD set up so it runs only in RWD. Engine conversion to 4AGE 20V ala trueno, panda-style color scheme with watanabe rims, etc etc.

Now that's a sleeper, essentially a Trueno wagon... Don't steal my idea now, will you? :D

go the 31 dude

can chuck cheap s13 suspension gear into em

just find rb25head and whack it onto rb30 head

then plenty of torque and whack a turbo on

31 all the way

plenty of AUNGER sun shades available for the rear, and grandpa sun visors for front of car

for really sleepishness go s1/2, or just a cream colour in s3

31 all the way!!

haha..... i knew it was just a matter of time until you found this thread and threw in a "GO THE 31!" comment

So.... what he said! ^

If the 25/30 conversion sounds like too much work, just dump an RB26 in instead.

ok, 31, stagea. here is a compromise - this is what you want!!!!!!. pick it up for next to nix from yahoo auctions!!!

Edited by 88silhouette

Best sleeper i have seen was a 1986 mitsubishi triton ute with a sigma 2.6litre turbo in it no changes at all just new clutch

this thing pisses it realy does and it is poo brown

If i had the spare cash:

Cresida ''izumida'' style cresida.1jzs can handle the punishment.

Or a grandpa 31 with s13 suspension and rb 26 or 30 powah!!!.

Which car would be the most cheapsk8 option??

And how much would the car and conversion cost.Inc the few nessesities like suspension,clutch and lsd???

    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
    • @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.
    • Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.
    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
