hey good work!!

will be thumping.. so do you have any plans for it?? I guess its got soo much done to it there probably isn't heaps that is easy

these wheels would look good on it..but they're from japan

wind down the boost to give less power.. probably a first in the skyline scene..hehe :) but yer, 400rwkw couldn't be fun when its raining.

I have a few plans of getting the most of my car, and hopefully learning a few things over the next couple of months... but i think unless i have a major change of circumstance I'm going to sell it b4 the end of the year :-(

but i have bigger and better plans for my next car.. and wanting to work from the ground up this time i think, do every thing my way.. and probably install most of it myself to save costs. Think I'm in a position to install most of the usuals myself..

still not sure exactly what i'm getting, few options.. think i'm going to give importing a go - once SEVS is up and functioning properly.

haha, thats awesome...

You'll get used to it eventually though. Will be fun to take it down the 1/4 - you'll get so many looks and stuff.. Better set a good time or you'll get abused - you got the car now there is no excuse about the driving :)

ahh the never ending plans :D

i always say to myself after a mod "...and THATS IT! not more!"

the car is currently at Palm getting the bonnet, front bar, boot and new stealth wing (when it comes in later on this week/next week) resprayed

bought the wheels last week and im happy with those

now, the car will have to wait for abit till the money tree grows a tad then its turbo option time

1. highflow

2. straight bolt on aftermarket

3. go the whole hack, manifold, external gate, td06 *shrugs*

well see once the time comes around, then ill make dead set decisions

u really want the widebody kit for the R32? never been a huge fan, but its something different i guess. post a pic!

I'm thinking GTS4 too, if not a good ol gts-t will do.. around $10k ? maybe being too optimistic there but not sure.. then spend $5k on the "minor mods" (kit, exhaust, Fmic, boost, etc) to get it to around the 170kw wheels mark.. then think about thinking about trying to get it to 250 kw or so at all 4 via something or other turbo...But i'm in no hurry. May just do stage 1, save the money for my house, adn get a 1990 R32 GTR under the 15 year rule in 2005 if its still around then (thinking way too far ahead.. lol)

Still also thinking the 180 for number of reasons, even though people might disagree with me..

possible a tt-soarer /me waiting for the slap from inark

I don't think I will be doing mine till right till end of this year, start of next year. Might think about a worked 89 model of "whatever", but will have to think about that a bit more.

whistla: what happened to your bonnet? I think i've only seen yours once, but it looked damn clean to me :(

haha..yer, i consider that for my 33.. but well i don't want to spend another $8k which i know will be hard to get like $30k for mine.. sure it might be 270rwkw, but its a pretty limited market for buyers.. you gotta be keen - not many p-platers can afford that :D

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
    • Shock tower brace is in +5Kw....LOL
