My first skyline was an auto R34 25GT..absolutely loved it, but the lack of power got to me and I ended up turbocharging it...it got stolen and written off though :)

I'm now selling my second skyline, another auto R34, this one is a GTt...not sure on your situation, but I can highly recommend the GTt over the 25GT.

Personally I love the car, I just need a change after being in an R34 for over 5 years :P

Thanks for the reply~

I have to get an auto non turbo cos my fiance is on P's and can only drive auto.....tired of being her driver so its time that i get driven around haha

tats why im seriously thinking of a R34........I saw a couple of NA R34 4 doors selling arnd 15K...very tempting but i wonder if the NA R34's performance is comparable to my NA 33

lol i got a na r34 auto coz parents drive every once in a blue moon :thumbsup: anyway they are hella fun to drive just get one lol! power is aplenty it is after rb25de, get the 2 door version coz itd be lighter. handles like a genius and get about 500k per tank

no an r34 non turbo does not make 200 kw, it makes about 148 kW at the flywheel but that is new though

when i got my car it was making 101 stock at the wheels

Hello i have a Skyline R34 25GT and i Adore her she is the best car i have owned the old owner done some bad s^%t To her.

But i slowly rebuilding her to her glory its a pi%^ off but i can not leave her as she is.

At a distance you will see nothing Wrong with her but up close i have to Repaint, knock out a dent or two and she be right.

Its a Neo St8 six under the hood with a Hybird Gearing (Tiptronic)

And she is a joy to drive. Hell if i could buy the fuel i will drive to South Aus to say hello and good bye to Miss R34 just for FUN.

P.s I got that skyline for $16,000 dollers.

Hmmm. My RB25 made 115rwkw, with catback exhaust and a pod. I didn't think it would make much difference though?

Does anyone think any internal mods could have been done? I've always wondered this myself, but the previous seller never stated so.

It's only out of an R33 Series 1, so it hasn't even got VCT.

whichever mechanic told you that is full of it

Are you saying all R33's have VCT?

If so I didn't know this... No mechanics told me it, I just read it somewhere... Probably wikipedia or something inaccurate like that. It was a while ago. Hell, I could even be imagining that this is the case.

Maybe previous owner didn't know or was lieing that it came out of an R33.

Is there any visible way I can tell whether it has VCT?

Thanks... :)

Here is my engine:

only the RB25DE (from the R32) didn't come with VCT.

and the only R33 i am 99% sure which doesnt have VCT are the ones equipped with RB20 non turbo motors.

the VCT solenoid plug is on the intake side near cylinder one

  • 3 months later...

Got any more pics?.

I like the photo with the car in your avatar.. care to share it with us?

The N/A R34 is a really good platform. I have the 4 door, which is more unique as you don't see as much but they weight a little more than the 2 dr..

I would be looking at 15k and up for a decent one. Handles really well and looks the part.

At the end of the day it's all down to preference..

x2..

You need all the power you can get with an NA.. and the VVL really gives it a bit more..

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
