The GTi-R also uses quad throttle bodies and is giving you around 30kw more in stock form that an S15

As cereal said as funky as S15's are, putting an S15 motor in a Gti-R is

A) ****ing expensive due to cost of S15 engine

B) A downgrade in power

And no, dont believe S15 box will fit either due to 4wd

ok

well are there many pulser gtir on the market, and are the parts easy to source as well??

because i don't see many gtir on the sydney road

I don't think you should have too much of a problem finding parts for a gti-r, but they probably wont be nissan parts......you'll be able to get Jap performance parts no problems.

There aren't many of them on Sydney roads because there aren't many of them on any roads........Only 4500 of them were ever made.

When I had the cash money for my car I was flipping up for either a GTS-t or GTi-R. The skyline won by a hair.

I'd admit that the Skyline won alot due to looks, as I got turned off the GTi-R everytime I saw the rear end of it...

Does anyone know of anyone who makes a body kit for these things ? NOT over the top. Just like side skirts and maybe a slighly revised rear bar ?

Some parts from the N14 Pulsar do fit...."SOME"

An early HPI had a review on one of them...Interesting. There ARE too many R33 Taxi's doing the rounds these days...

A mate of mine at work has a gtir & i got a r32 skyline.

We usually try 2 get a red light so we can have a mini drag, goin home from work. The gtir kicks my arse by far! & all it done to it was a cat back exhaust + pod filter & i got a full exhaust & pod filter.

2 be honest though, that gtir aint that crash hot. The car interior aint in the best condition, it a lucky dip with imports, you get some good ones & you got some sour ones & ive seen a few sour gtir

He had it for over 6months now & he purchased it for $22K i think it was & little steep i know. I wouldnt personally buy a 90-93 year old second hand car for that price, im sure you can import it & get it alot cheaper then the price my mate got it for.

I got my skyline for under $15k, once i reach $22k im sure my car will skin alive the gtir.

The Gti-r is an awesome package, performance wise. They can look pretty tidy (nice one comes around near my work occasionally) but the fact it's a hatch and so small puts me off. That said, i would never bag, nor talk anyone out of buying one.

And if you're gunna buy a hot hatch...make sure it really is a hot hatch :uh-huh:

John at Unique Auto's at Castle Hill has one in Black at the moment. It was well under $22000. He took me for a quick spin last Saturday. Very ordinary interior,,,YUK!!! and don't talk to me about front end drift coming out of corners. That poor little car suffers from far to much weight in the front,,,what would make it worse is modding it,,, so you run a big fmic and doi away with the bonnet mounted one,,,which we all know doesn't work. That would add 25-30 more kilo's to the front,,,,Scary.

I was all for buying one before we got the Skyline,,,,I'm so glad we didn't.

i will wait until i got my power fc into my car and see how it goes

because i am a skilless driver so i think a 4wd will cover some of my weak points while driving. that's all. i didn't know that a gtir is a 4wd. and i thought it is very cheap. once i found out that gtir is a 4wd, with such performance, i suddenly had the thought.

    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
