Hey mate,

Give it a go yourself... best thing you can do with a car is get your hands dirty you find out alot and respect your car more...

You can find alot of tuts on this site that will show you what to do, just take your time and don't take shortcuts. if you cant find it here look on the web (but share if you find it, help some more people) if you get stuck then stop and ask someone to help you.... these shouldn't be to hard to fit...

hahahawell i can have a bowl of rice and a beer lol jk. mmm maybe a carton of beeer for nightcrawler ???? hint hint lol

LOL how long are you planning this taking? I went out to see how Andrew was going with fitting the new turbo and ended up staying there 2 days to get it done. (there were a few other things added aswell)

haha i've done 1 so as you can see i'm an expert :thumbsup:

it really depends on the workshop and their hourly rate, I use a private guy who has a race workshop down south and pay around $45per Hour but some paces charge up around the 90 - 100 per hour. Best ringing around and getting some quotes from some workshops. I got a quote to fix my Exhaust manifold studs from Adelaide Turbo Services on South Road they were quite a bit cheaper than anyone else.

Yeah i agree with axe, have a good look on the forums its helped me out a fair few times. the turbo would be a bitch to do but the rest of the stuff shouldn't be that bad...it just takes a while

i do all the work on my car myself due to the fact you save soo much money it may take longer but at least its a good learning experience aswell...

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
