So can anyone answer my final question, Is the turbo on the R34 steel or ceramic? i was told steel but am unsure? Thanx :P

Nylon compressor and a ceramic turbine wheel. Been covered plenty of times. Use the search button.

No probs :D

Bear in mind the search function defaults to looking for posts in the last 30 days. You generally may need to search more posts than that (e.g. the last six months). Also read the "Advanced Usage Help" in the search page for some guidance.

For your query I looked for:

+r34 +turbo +ceramic

and searched within the last 90 days.

just did a bit more reading and am a little confused, there are 3 series of the R34, Series 1 has a ceramic inner, S2 has a twin ceramic/steel? and s3 has a garrett. Now my questions lie in the engines,are the ones with the Red lettering on the engine Series 1? and do all the turbos produce the same sound/power? i drove a 99 R34 which had the red lettering on the engine and was satified with the car as a whole,it had a Nismo kit and had the nice dials of the S2 without the two tone steering wheel??. Any help dudes would be appreciated :D

Thanks for the link :D , but thats the one i read briefly and got confused due to the different Series models of the R34. Clicking on one of the links gives 3 diffrent turbo's used in the R34 throughout there span, my questions originally were based upon sound/power created by each turbo. :P

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
