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!

your car looks fantastic great job, what kit do you have on it? im about to get a 4door 25gt and your kit looks perfect for me.

Thought ill post mine :banana:

RICCA, don't steal my thunder mate! :b

Just a factory option sports lip on the stock front bar, option side-skirts and rear bar... That is about it.. They are dime a dozen!

well i feel like an idiot now, but hey you never know if you dont ask, your front just looks different to what mine is, ill have to look into it, your car is so simple and very nice.

Don't feel like a tool man, it isn't a crime to not know. At one point I was ignorant as a door knob about skylines, and whilst I'm a long way from being an expert, I do know a fair bit these days.. I've bought probably nearly a grand in just HPI, ZOOM, HOT4's, AUTOSALON and such magazines since 2007 when I bought my car. The knowledge you acquire from reading them is indispensible. I used to buy them more often than I do know, but make a point of anymag making reference to a Skyline article, particularly if it contains tips about upgrades, modification and walkthroughs. You'll thank me later! ;)

But yeah man, time, knowledge, patience (MY car was stock as a rock all through 07 and most of 08), since I got intercooler/fuel pump and zorst done around sept/oct/nov 08, I've now got a full bilstein coilover kit, poncams, worked head, 13.5 pound of boost (thanks to an RB20 turbo actuator on my stock turbo), ViPEC engine management, coilpacks and nearly 300HP and the rears.. :)

Just take ur time and do the research, ask questions if necissary, if your not happy with the results/advice or dissapointed by a lack of feedback, PERSIST my friend!!

Thanks for posting! and good luck!

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
