a widebody huh? well, i am ordering a widebody "kit" from japan for my new MX-5 when it arrives and the parts alone are costing 4K plus shipping. remember though, thats premade. to design a custom widebody, which you will need may cost a lot more than that. you will probably be looking around 6K and upwards :laugh: sorry to ruin it for you, but unless you got money to burn, i would leave it till later.

IMO i would leave the exterior and concentrate on the performance side of it. would be a nice sleeper. maybe go an rb30det? up to you?

nice to meeet you

Welcome to SAU, there are many modifactions out there for skylines, but unfortunatly there are not many for the R30 that are off the shelf style mods. What most people on here would tell you to do is to drop a RB20/25/30det in her as there are many many many many mods that can be done with these engines.

If you are on a budget then you can really only do exhaust, cams, headwork, carby/injecters (I dont know what engine is in an R30?) but this is all standard NA tuning. I would recommend that you search the NA tuning section of the forums this will help you LOTS with future mods.

Cheers

Chris

shes got a L24(E) engine

first mod we're planning on doing is the exhaust.

go from the ground up i think with new tyres and mags after that

its got some kind of JECS chip screwed into the firewall on the left hand side but what i can figure is that has something to do with the fuel injection...

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
