hey guys....

well i have been signed up here for a while now but i am always too busy to find a computer. i am 15 years old and pretty soon i will be able to go for my learners. i have worked for a damn long time in various jobs around my town gilgandra (think dubbo) and my parents have agreed to split the cost with me... so far i have around 5-6 thousand dollars saved up and i have had my mind set on a skyline for a long time because i love the way they look and sound, not to mention that there are no other 'lines that i know of around where i live.

anyway, back to the point... i am a complete N00b at this sort of stuff (i know a bit about car engines and such) and i would like to know if theres a sort of introductory 'guide' to modding a car and what to buy and where to find the best prices, what sort of skyline/engine you all recommend and the like. it would be a great help. thanks

p.s sorry about the long post.

    • Hello everyone, I'm glad to join you.
    • Definitely do-able haha. I will give it a try if the fuel pump hanger does not solve the issue. Just need to find some quiet time in the area, Malta is like a big city and I live right next to the main hospital so it is very busy during the day. I'll be installing it in about 2 weeks, found a garage that is pretty knowledgeable and has the necessary tools. This garage has worked on multiple builds, even for competitions. They even asked me to stay with, so I should be fine.
    • Just to add, I found the r32 gtr ecu the most forgiving, the r33 one would get the shits. 
    • For what it’s worth I drove my gtr for over a decade with gt-ss as a true daily after I pulled off the -5s, I had it engineered and went with stock ecu etc.  never skipped a beat.    I would only worry if you can’t get good fuel all the time in a tropical paradise
    • I bought an engine from a friend of a friend many years ago, it was sold to me as a RB25det Neo.    recently I started pulling it apart and noticed that the intake manifold was pretty different from others that I had seen on RB engines so did a bit of research and found that it was a non turbo manifold. So I’m sceptical now that it is a NEO DET and just thinking it’s a NEO DE (it does have a turbo strapped to it currently).    can you identify the engine model from the numbers on the block?
