Yup, well finally, here is my little R34 SKYLINE, Manual GT-T Sedan.. Pearl White and it is simply a pleasure to drive, since July I've done close to 15,000km in it and I'm still not bored.

Considering I used to drive an N/A auto VL Berlina, this is an entire world away from that... These pics are after I gave my car its first cut-back polish and wax.. Again, a big thats to Paul, Alistair and all of Autoworx who at the time help me with the car, big thanks to you guys.. I'm really a happy chappy!

Just a question dudes and dudettes...

Does anyone think that my wheels/rims don't fill the guards enough??

A few of my mates have said this and I kinda see their point.. Are they right? or am I delusional??

Bigger rims? Get some aftermarket springs/shocks for a lower ride height??

I can report this though, I don't know if many Skyline drivers take their rides on gravel roads, I have to as I live in the country, but I can tell you all.. The Skyline is equally at home on gravel as it is on bitumen, many of the locals that drive typically 'country' cars, such as commodores, falcons, magnas, statesmans, avalons, aurions and the likes.. None of them, and I will say, NONE of them handle, road hold and are as stable as the Skyline... Really me and my old man couldn't believe it, but it is true, and I have no idea how they (Nissan) managed it, but this thing is just simply awesome on gravel..

thats a hell clean 34 mate, good work on gettin it hehe, as 4 the wheels they do sit in a bit, wat u can do is either get a new set with lower offset, or just whack sum bolt on spacers 4 those rims, if u want 2 lower it id recommend gettin sum coilovers.

Oh, I thought it was an N/A GT-4...

Yeah, that is one thing that really suprised me too, going from a VL though, what do you expect... The VL used to handle like a shopping trolley on cocaine...

hey mate.

what size rims are u running.

like size and offset.

i have a r34 4Door also. except mine is a GTS model.

i have just put on some axis Hiro 19x9.5 +25 all round on mine. And i must say they certainly fill the gaurds ha ha

a big car needs big tough jap looking rims.

Any pics mate? U would have had to roll ur guards??

yer at the moment is running stock height so there mega clearance.

But i will get my guards rolled and pumped so that i can lower it heaps.

the wheels sit outside my guard alittle bit. but once i pump out the guards and lower it the wheels will also camber in abit which will help out a bit.

The wheels look phat as tho.

here is a pic with my car riding at full height. Needs about -5inch suspension. :thumbsup:

Hey mate, nice car, ive got a 34 4-door as well. Ive got the R34 GTR rims on mine with lowered springs, fill out the guards pretty nice. Cant go wrong with a decent set of 18s. If i was you id get some work XT7s for it in bronze. Very nice car though mate, nice and clean, good to see more of these puppies getting around. Here's a pic of mine:

    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks  
    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
