hey champ

Welcome to the forums

why wouldnt u just go for a non turbo r34 ? with the rb25neo...

[tiesto]

yer u are thinking of the rb25de neo motor. you could probably find a clean r34 4dr auto non turbo for a fair price.

[ConverT!]

haha abt how much wud a 2 dr r34 non-turbo cost?

i want the looks of the r34 without the fuel consumption of a turbo

best of both worlds lol

btw, reason i wanted the rb20DE NEO is cos its sposed to be the most fuel-efficient skyline every made haha

but i'm sure the rb25DE NEO wudnt be much worse on fuel rite?

$18,000 - $22,000 manual 2door R34 NEO RB25DE (non turbo)

$16,000 - $19,000 auto 2door R34 NEO RB25DE (non turbo)

my cousin is selling his R34 non turbo, manual for $24,000 its a show car without the turbo, PM me if you are interested.

You dont always have to drive on boost u kno... if u go easy u can get by

[bubba]

no turbo.. ewwwwwww

Just get a turbo and drive it like a grandma off boost, then when you do need to put your foot down (overtaking, pulling out etc) you won't regret your earlier decision

[NO_RSPECT]

you also gotta think about insurance. oh and also.. think about "the bug" turbos take to mods wel... and you can feel most of the results quickly... and you might get the BUG...

so if non turbo is the way.. then stick with it.

But if you think you can fight "the bug" and you can pay the insurance.. then go the turbo and drive nice.

oh and buy my auto

i didnt think the r34 came with an rb20de neo stock?

am i missing something i through only the r32 had the shitty rb20

just buy a turbo... i got a big aftermarket turbo and still get near stock if not better than stock fuel consumption

[32vspecII]

just buy the turbo and people wont think your homo

[play r 32]

If you get a non turbo you will still go power hunting within six months, doing extractors, a noisy exhaust, pod filter. All giving you little joy for your money. Once you get sick of that you will start looking at putting a turbo motor in there. No one can fight the "more power" bug. NA should just stand for not available. end rant.....

the R34 with RB20DE NEO isn't eligible for import into Australia hence why you haven't seen any in import yards or import brokers e-mail distribution lists.

the reason why? (from memory) it did'nt meet power to weight ratio requirements set by Aust. Govt.

No, R33's also came with the RB20E motors too!

[Jake r34]

Yeah dude you can get what your looking for!

i recently just got a Non turbo 2 door r34 25GT from an import car yard for 15 grand

so yes the r34 25gt's come with a RB25DE NEO there fuel consumption is the best out of all skylines in does 9.4L/100kms

[Hanaldo]

Lol internet stats lie to you ^

I have an R34 GT, used to have an RB25DE Neo, recently put an RB25DET Neo into it. I am getting the same fuel consumption with the turbo as I was with the non-turbo motor, both are getting about 350-400kms to a tank depending how I drive. The 25DE motor is high compression so it uses a lot of fuel anyway. Just get a turbo.

If you want good fuel consumption get a hybrid, Skylines are high performance cars. You're not gonna get good mileage from them.

[That_timothy]

You know, I don't think it's meant to work out this way, but my fuel map's a bit silly atm and I get better fuel economy driving like a lunatic than an old lady...

Food for thought!

[Hanaldo]

Win Win!

My 34 sedan is rb20de Neo

Is it street registered Brenden? Apparently very rare because as mentioned previously they don't meet power to weight ratio requirements. Funny that...

[XxNinjaxX]

time for my 2cents, i'd advise you go turbo becasue of all the above mentioned reasons, the only way you'l get better fuel economy is if you improve the power to weight ratio (make your car lighter) ive got a R33 gts-t and for a large majority of the time i drive off boost and it realy doesnt chew the fuel at all! i get 400+km's to a tank (460km's was my absolute best ) ive removed my spare wheel and my sub to reduce the weight and im looking into removing more unnessisary things. best way to go about it
