Hi all, firstly I'll like to greet everyone in the forum!

I own a 180sx Type-X and planning to trade it in within the next 2 weeks or so for a R34 GT.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post it.

But basically I want where and how much I can get the spoiler for it, exact same ones as the stock turbo ones.

It just doesn't look that great without it..

Also is $16.5k decent for a R34 GT that's done just under 100k?

Thanks for all your help. :(

this is true, youll be hard pressed i think to find a decent GT that cheap, id be budgeting for at least 19k minimum not to mention insurance and rego, just keep that in mind, but it would only take a few minutes to find some on carsales or carpoint, check them out and see what u can find

I'd say $16.5k is pretty decent. Are you sure you wanna go from turbo to an NA though? I don't know your situation, but I have a feeling you might regret it.

I guess test drive it and if you like it then it's up to you. :)

Thanks guys.

Well reason being from going turbo to NA is cause I've speeding too much lately. Lucky I haven't been caught yet, and its just chewing up too much $ for maintanence.

I've decided to go NA but still have the looks,

So the R34 GT was my choice. I mean I would consider a GTT, but that'll cost an extra 8k or so. Not to mention the insurance cost for it... omg I don't even want to think about it lol.

I'll be going for a test drive this saturday to see if there's that much of a big difference from the 180 I've got now anyway.

So does anyone know where I can buy a rear spoiler to make it look more of a sexy beast? :D

Cheers

have you ever thought about/tried to drive around at lower speeds?

seems pretty logical to me.

well........ you'll be more likely than not to speed when you're driving a turbo.

Seems pretty logical to me.

Anyways the main question is the rear spoiler purchase. Anyone?

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...

      Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents

      I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.

      One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
