I am undecided if i want a 4 door skyline (R32 only) as i have a GTST i need to swap into a GTS as i kinda hit some panels :rofl: now if i get a auto will converting it to manual be hard in terms of tailshaft length? im hoping they are the same length. I wouldnt mind the extra room but dont want a car thats crap to drive, i have coilies to go in and im also hopn that i can swap those over without hassle the only thing that worries me is if the GTS still have 5 stud hubs, i spose i might need to swap mine over if not and hopefully thats no issues either.

so yeh feedback from teh 4 door drivers :(, im thinkn of going classy and pimpn (no kit) just dumped with nice rims and DARK tint :)

4 Doors dont really have a lot more room. Its just easier access to the rear is all. I was going to buy a 4 door because i have a couple of kids, but after looking at both, the coupe had more leg room in the back seat.

Most parts will be interchangeable as longs as its the same model (r32. r33 etc etc) It will get tricky if you go from 32 to 33 etc. The parts that arent interchangeble should not be too hard to find the parts that you need from any number of places, like C-Red for example. Jash there has done enough conversions to be able to find what you need.

There are probably plenty of other shops to, just check the consolidated workshop thread for some more.

They can handle quite well. I've got a 4dr gts4. Back seat room is pathetic, recaros don't help though. It has various supension mods, coilovers etc. Handles very well and everyone who's driven it comments on that too. So they can be setup quite well.

Ive got a 32 coupe my best mate has a 32 4Door. The 4 doors still go hard as, corner well, handles pretty much exactly the same. Obviously a 4 door's chassis isn't as tight as the coupe but is hardly if at all noticeable on the street. The 4 door doesn't have really any more leg room in the back as a few people have already mentioned although it's a lot easier getting into the back seats for obvious reasons. If it's a GTS 4 door (non-turbo) i believe they are a 4 stud for the rims.

Cheers.

4 doors are teh hotness!

Nice one Alistair!!

Autoworx ftw..

You should drive that thing down the road sideways, perminantly. That way you'll aquire more 'advertisement' exposure for oncoming traffic....

Need a marketing manager?

:P

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
