Yeah THANKS spud, (hope you don't mind the abrieviation),
Only had it 3days and would yu believe that some jealous gronky CU*T has already deep keyed three panels parked at the shopping centre for fu*k sake.
Shit mate this is a lot of car, I am that infatuated, i want another one.
Just wondering which would be the better all round car , ie price , performance, the 2.6o turb'ed manual or the 3.5 natural 6 speed like mine, any opps on that spud. Perhaps one of each, two is better than one they say. Hee hee hee

I love when people say spud haha, 

That would absolutely piss me off if someone keyed my car. 
I'm definitely more of a C34 Stagea guy, remember, when it comes to the Autech RB26 stagea, if something breaks you basically have to uy another gtr. I personally would buy a RS4S (2.5l Turbo Manual) if you want a C34, You could probably build up the RS4S to perform better than the Autech C34 and it may still end up being cheaper. Not really too sure when it comes to the M35 models, but I definitely respect a good looking one.

I'd love to have one of each haha

So its a 2wd manual? That makes it easier to modify if you're so inclined. The latest Link computers can run the 4 camshafts so time for a big single turbo!

I'm pretty sure they're just 6 speed auto, unless someone did a manual swap :D

Yep sweet as 6 speed manual. I think I got a little lucky donut, I mean I really like the only other 6speed the 260s, but everyone has a turb auto right, so if you gonna be different yu got to stand out in the crowd. This is not far off the mark, what yu recon donut .As for upgrades , might look at a chip n cam set, maybe some suspension which is pretty solid anyway, the head unit and thought the 260s wing just to confuse the experts Hertz.
Tell the missus yu can have your cake and eat it too with this little gem.

Good on ya spud. Had a family at school. all three boys we called spud, so it came sort of natural. Well yu sound like yu might know a bit more than a recent convert like myself, so I'll take your word for it on the specs. I'm pretty happy with it stock at the moment, but if I can get my grubby little mits on another low k's one cheap enough I might look some of the stuff yu mention, certainly like to maybe build a bittsa this n bittsa that, using all the best factory bits from across the skyline range, maybe a turn or two might fit that picture. One thing is for sure spud, two in the hand is much better than one in the bush, so yu are spot on, one of each would nothing hurt. All G in the H. Spud

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
