everyone thinks theyre car is the "best" one in the country.. i bet theres about 400 better examples than ur car out there champ

And I bet you're wrong :)

Easily one of the nicest GT-R's I've ever seen...

But back on topic, get the body checked out as mentioned, as well as the mechanicals. Good luck with it.

As other people have mentioned, Aaron's R34R possibly IS one of the best in the country so unless you've seen it in action, I'd be careful of what you say about the car.

As for GTA, I bought my car from GTA back in 02. If you would like an honest opinion of them, PM me as I can't tell you everything about them on this public forum. I can tell you that they weren't very helpful when the car failed and I needed a repairer ASAP due to their negligence.

When I had the car checked out, they simply said that they'd pay for anyone I chose to do the check as long as I bought the car. At the time though, I didn't know of Racepace but if I had the knowledge I have now, Racepace is definitely the place to go to check out your future car.

Can't go past Mick @ MiColour at 7 Dissik Street Cheltenham. Many of regular SAU-Vic members have used Mick and swear by his work (me included). He's not as cheap as some out there but his work is 100% perfect once the work is done. He's also a major sponsor of SAU-Vic which means he'll give you a member's discount.

Thanks for all the info.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I think in the modern era we live in, if I were converting a hydro lifter head to solid, particularly when chasing revs, I'd be seeing what I could do to use shimless buckets. Those of us with Neos usually have this persistent niggling fear of a shim getting spat out and ruining everything. Shim-over is...yucky that way. At least the Tomei kit appears to be conventional, but it would still be nice if they'd decided to go shimless.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.
