hay guyz fuli saw ur kewl forum and decided to join coz i love the turbo pshhh sound.

Just Kidding.

I'm Tim, a long time member of the R31 skyline club (SILO-31), just thought i'd sign up to the SAU to broaden the possibility of more cruises and more information about our favourite model of auto machine.

I've owned 2 skylines in the past, my first was a 1987 Series 2 R31 Silhouette, 5 speed manual, 2.5inch exhaust, K&N filter and 98 chip, lowered springs. Was a great car, well looked after and always drove well, one wet afternoon i had the stereo up a bit loud and wasn't consentrating, went round a corner a little to fast and the rear stepped out, by the time i corrected it just enough to narrowly miss a tree she aimed straight for a gutter.

A few weeks later i decided i was to wreck my old car and buy a new one, i came accross a straight 1988 Series 3 R31 Silhouette, terrible paint and a bit of rust but it drove well, i had a few plans for it but i'm starting to work alot more and dont have time to modify it, id rather have something 98% completed i can drive and enjoy.

So that said, in a few weeks the car will be up for sale and i'll be in the market for a Naturally Aspirated R33 GTS.

Cheers, Tim. :D

    • It's almost certainly a reluctor generating an "AC" waveform. No, ECUs don't generally read those - they're usually set up for PWM square wave 0-5v stuff.
    • 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 ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • 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  
    • 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.
