Whats done to it... very nice 34...

I can only compare it as being a passenger, but to me the porsche's handling felt so crisp and responsive. Compared to the gtr its hard to say as I didnt drive the thing but unmodified in any way the porsche just changed directions with ease with no body roll whatsoever. Compared to the gtr if it were stock you have to upgrade the suspension to make it feel like that. The brakes on the thing were awesome. I think there the same size as the gtr but the porsche weighing around 250-300kg less makes u huge difference in stoping power. Power delivery is on a different level being a 3.6 litre. There is so much grunt down low that it just pulls you hard than at around 3k revs its even harder. There is hardly any transition onto boost, just a feeling that you know it is on by how much harder its just pushed you into your seat. Owner said he ran a 12.4 stock. The only thing I didn't like about the porsche is that its so quite but thats an easy fix with a exhaust and some induction mods. Apart from that in my opinion you don't need to touch it whereas the gtr you have to spend a bit of money to get it to that level. 300kw in the gtr, a good set of coilovers, sway bars and brakes and you will out do the porsche. Pretty much were im at now with the brakes on there way:) at this level there really isn't much the gtr cant play with

Drive a 993 turbo they were the best of the lot, we modified one and got 320kw at all 4 (didnt want the lag being a circuit car) and it was just insane.

If one came up at the right price I'd sell both my cars to own it

yep marko summed it up perfectly 'built to be fast'. The gtr can do what the porsche can and may even do it better but you need to spend big bucks on the gtr to be able to do it reliably.

Brett you probably wouldnt lose buying a 993. They been floating around the same price for years and will probably go up in value in years to come.

Did it take much to get 320kw out of it?

    • Yes the gear for the R33/34 is different, it is red and has a different number of teeth. My part didn't come with that gear though, so I don't know how many teeth are on the red one. You'd have to reuse the 260RS/R33 gear, as long as it's not destroyed.   Haha, as unfortunate as that might be it was working fine for about the first 1500km I've had the car for now.
    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
