mods to current:

RB25det s2 motor @9psi

fmic

tein coilovers rear

cut springs front

3" tbe with hollowed cat

enkei rp01 16x8 rims front

blitz type01 17x9 rims rear- hope to fit all round once i buy new coilovers, front sits just too low atm

r32gtst brakes

s14 hub conversion, 5stud boo-yah

s14 front control arms

r32gtst front seats

black faced auto boost gauge

in the future when money is saved, it will also be getting a body kit, a diana kit was thought of but pricing of that is a little high maybe a uras kit will be fitted, hoping to buy the chrome series 2 grille coz im going for more of a VIP ride than a track car hence the intrest in the diana kit, dont know yet but will update as car is updated

picked up wonder copy off a previous owner, has a few cracks here and there so it'll need fibre glassing and painting but once its fitted ill post up some pics

still no movement on turbo installation, still trying to save money up for additional parts, sucks earning apprentice wages haha, ill be qualified by the end of the year so hopefully i can get the ball moving and finish this off

Once turbo's on im going to fit greddy style intake plenum and possibly cams too, seeing as my timing belts due might aswell get cams, belt and water pump all out the way, plus my cam cover seals are starting to leak so why the hell not aye

seen my car with your plates an thought you'd de-kit the car

and let it get really filthy haha, but yeah im never gonna let these

plates go

as for update on car, kit still not fitted as old owner wants to but it

back and im thinking of gettin a uras kit- any objections? haha

turbo still not yet rebuilt but i did just pick up power fc and z32 afm

so going to fit that plus 040 on fri night, the guy i bought the pfc off, his car

had exact same mods as mine and the current tune gets him 258hp atw

so hopefully i can just fit and drive and there wont be too much difference

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
