I'm currently out to purchase a skyline r34 GT-T. Been to alot of car yards and a few private sellers and test driven a few which have been stock. I want the r34 for a great street car also for drag(hoping to get 12s).

Bit disappointed when i took them for a test drive, hoping they would go a bit quicker. They seem really heavy and it feels like it would run a 15s. From what i have heard from mates/Aquantainces is that its not worth buying if you want it for dragging, i should look towards a Jap spec s15. Ive read the 100's of s15 vs r34 threads each providing the same info.

Can some people here who own r34gtt's list what mods they've done, and what times they have recieved, (kw would also be handy).

Thankyou for your time.

mate,

as what Fujiwara said do a good search on the RB25 dyno result thread.

R34 with get you a to b in a quick fashion way, i have a few mates who uses them as dailys, including me :banana:

and obviously stockies wouldnt be any good for drag etc.. it all depend what you wanna do with it.

if you want a car for drags, and want 12s 1/4 mile times, then this will be a LOT easier with AWD than any RWD car, otherwise all your money will go on tires and suspension in order to get the power to the ground...

the S15s are a lot lighter but the RB25 neo has a lot more potential...

if you want 12s 1/4's why not go for a GTR? you'd already be in the high 12's that way and probably for the same amount of money - or less if you get an R32GTR. That'll be quicker than most s15s you'll ever see, even before you modify it.

Engine Management, boost controller, 3" exhaust, with dump/front pipe and a hi-flow cat, FMIC, injectors, Pod Filter and drop in cams will get you a pretty tuff R34 Taxi...

If you can mate, get a manual... I've got a turbo, manual taxi and after six months I haven't looked back!

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
