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

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
