Hi all, recently decided to purchase a GT-R, as to me it just seems ahead of its time, and is a great car to drive. Anyway I found one that is a great one, and can't wait to finalise the purchase and get on the road. Pics are on my profile, if you see me on the road wave to me.

intense profile name...

Hi guys,

As you can see i'm new here. Been on nissansilvia.com for ages and was told this was the place to come for your excellent Classifieds section lol.

Moved to australia almost 8 years now and was surprised to find that cars are so much cheaper compared to where i come from. Just have a s13 track project car atm, no skyline as of yet thanks to the sad sad economy.

Anyway, i look forward to getting great advice from you guys and might see you on the track sometime soon! I hope.. lol cheers

welcome,

always wanted to buy that car too.....

you beat me to it.

Hey guys,

I'm Tony.

Just picked up a Skyline V35 350 GT8 on Wednesday.

Insane car. Absolutely love it and the power.

Ohhh the power!!

Not sure whether I should mod it or not.

Seems like a beautiful executive style car.

So if you see a gunmetal grey V around Garden Cityon stock plates, that'd be me. :)

Haven't seen very many of them up here which is a shame.

Sure to see you gents around,

Cheers,

Tony

Hi guys,

I am Fjaan

Been on nissansilvia forums for quite some time now but don't own a silvia lol

Its been in an accident and i am kinda lost in parts for it...

So i decided what better place to go to then skyline forums.

The car's at my dad's shop in coopers plains medow ave (opposite to asian star lol)

If anyone would b kind enough to help me please leave me a msg here or leave ur email or how ever.

Looking forward to having a good time here.

Hey,

My names Matt. I've been the forums for a while but haven't owned a skyline for like 3 years cus of my gay apprenticeship making me sell my 32 gtst.

But now the hard yards payed off and I bought myself my dream car, a 1993 V-Spec II 32 GTR with only an exhaust fitted from the turbos back. Since then I have uped the boost and fixed a miss fire at full boost due to a bad spark plug earth and too big of gaps. with the upped boost and preforming right, managed to slip the clutch so thats getting done as well as cam gears, cam belt, harmonic balancer, water pump, vipec ecu and split fire coil packs been dropped in as soon as they arrive by Mark at Godzilla motorsports and then its dyno time. not sure what it'll put out but hoping for 300hp at all fours with the lightened flywheel. :D

Its gun metal gray and pretty much gets around everywhere lol I'll post some pics shortly and if you see me around or know of any good events in the brissy/sunnycoast or the goldie let me know. also any good meet spots around to meet new people and have a chat. Cheers

Also anyone who knows anything about the vipec can you let me know. would love to learn more about it

Matt,

I have a 32GTR also (Traditional Grey) and had a VIPEC installed during a birthday the car had recently.

They are supported by Mark (Godzilla) and Trent at Mercury Motorsport, so i guess the support is available here in Bris for tuning ETC. Overall i beleive they are a good unit, with the ability to have multiple tunes set up on your laptop (98 octane and E85) with an easy reflash if you need to swap at say a track day. Talk to Mark, i am sure he will be able give you a heads up. Get Mark to check your ignitor (feeds power to the coil packs) and make sure its ok.

Anyhow, your on the right path - great car - happy driving.

Adam.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
