Hey, thanks. S2 sedans are definately the go. I actually had a silver one but lost that in a separation. When I sold my GTR I just had to have another one, the extra 2 doors and the extra boot space in the S2 sedan can't be beaten! I love the rims on your car, the rears look huge!

Mods are centred around suspension mainly for my track work -

Sydneykids' group buy bilstein shocks, whiteline springs, pineapples and adjustable swaybars

Cusco adj rear camber arm, adj caster rods, tension rod and 1-way diff

Nismo front strut with brake cyliner stopper

Hawke Pads front and rear

DBA slotted 4000 series front rotors

Road rims - Nismo LM GT2 rims 17x8, 17x9

Track rims - Volk Racing GTP 17x8, 17x9

turbotech boost controller set to 10psi

100mm thick SMIC with custom shroud

13 row oil cooler

K&N panel filter

CES front pipe, 3" metal cat and kakimoto cat back

and a set of Bride reclinables on the way.

Sounds awesome, ill look into SK's group buy when i get more money. What are the hawke pads worth if u dont mind asking, im after a good set of pads that will handle track work. the LM GT2 rims really make it look tough. Love your work, keep it up. hope mine can be as good as yours one day

I am pretty sure it was a little over $200 for the front and a little under $200 for the rear?? Hard to remember though, it was a while ago that I got them. I had the same pads on the GTR and they were magic. Have to bed them in really well though, otherwise they squeal like a banshee!

Highly recommend SK's group buy, have messed around with coilovers and different spring rates on GTSTs and GTRs before but this set from SK is really nice package for road and a bit of track work, really handles bumps and uneven road extremely well. Can't speak highy enough of it. And the price can't be beaten for what you are getting.

tough looking car jlnewton. have you considered getting coupe headlights?

anyway here's some pics of mine before i started returning it to stock to sell.

Thanks, nice GTR. Brings back painful memories of seeing mine go. . . . .

I have thought about the coupe headlights, it will happen one day. Just not a priority atm, a lot of $s for a cosmetic thing. At least they aren't as expensive as those xenons on your car, I looked into upgrading mine on the GTR when I had it as mine was only a series 2 not 3. . . . . I nearly fell over. . . . . >_<

Same car and rims as mine, only mines black....are your wheels 17 or 18"?

Really need to get the front lip on mine

They are 17s. the ultra light wheels.

Yer i love the standered series 2 front and the lip reali finishes it off... now for side skirts n a rear bumper... lol

ah ok...They're AVS T6 rims...pretty expensive on NS.com with 17's starting at 3400...i've got the 18's

Mines got the standard sideskirts and rear pods...I like em :)

What website is NS.com?

yer i kno i was going to change the rims until i looked through the reciepts and saw $4000+ wid tyres! i thought wow mayb i lik them now! haha.

do u have any pics of ur car showing the rear pods?

Edited by Adz2332

they're very subtle.

The other factory option pods on the GTR extend around the rear of the bumper a bit, where as these just kind of pump the side of the rear....I like these better than the wrap around style

NS.com is nissansilvia.com....a forum like this one but more about silvias than skylines obviously....one of the traders on there has a listing for the AVS T6 wheels...17's from $3400, 18's from $3700....so that puts my wheels at a minimum of $3700 + tyres....I never knew they were so expensive :)

I'll be finishing off the complete whiteline suspension kit as soon as the bilstein shocks are back in production (it's already got everything else, sway bars camber/caster etc) Not sure on ride height yet...don't want anything ridiculous

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
