I wonder how many of those cop cars are left. I want one :D

And I think there would be less around now if the GTS2's came with a RB25DET. So why not just make it a RB26DETT! :D

Hmm I just have to sit tight for a little longer and then I can go and try and get my hands on one, which atm looks like an easy deal because there are 5 for sale I know of in Aus, and travelling is good. :)

they were rare to come by when mine was for sale and I still struggled to sell it, now they're everywhere and just not selling quickly. You should be able to get a good deal.

I might beat you to it though :D

Hey everyone....im darcey and live just out of Hobart. I own a 1994 RPS13 180SX which i imported around christmas time. IM open for any cruises or clubs because there is a serious lack of import "get togethers" in tassie.

I see there is a cruise on the 30th but i can't make it...will htere be any in the near future?

Why don't you leave an offer and your number under the windcreen wipers next time you go past it?

Personally, I'd save about 7k and 100kg and put an RB25DET, manual box, in the exec you've already got, with some decent wheels, R32 brakes and good suspension. You'd wipe the floor with a GTS2.

Hmm, I think GTS2's look different......

I think Nissan SVD's bodykit designer may well have been one of Darth Vader's stormtroopers...

But thats me. I saw one in full white, and that looked awesome. Yes, it was a GTS2 not a GTS1, full GTS2 spec, I believe it was an ex interceptor car.

cheers,

True, but they aren't *that* fast stock, and modifying a 1 of 200 car seems a bit wrong to me. So you're stuck with a relatively slow, expensive car?

Depends whether its the style or the speed you want in the end. If you want to go fast, spend the difference on your Exec.

True Scott, but think about it, none of those comes close to a RB20DET R31 conversion in terms of bang for your buck.

R31 = already owned so $0

RB20DET = could have a half cut from an R32 for $2.5k or so, 5spd

get a dr_drift chip and a VG30ET turbo + Front mount.

LSD = $750 or so

R32 Brake upgrade = say $400 for the struts, same for the R32 disks/calipers

Chuck in some good springs/shocks = $1000-2000 depending on what you get.

and top it with some s/h 16x8" rims and 225/50 rubber say $750.

Quick car. good value. Of course the value would go out the window if you paid someone else to do it all...

cheers,

I have a white R31 Skyline series 3 executive, not registered at the moment. I brought it from auction 2months ago and its nearly finished, im in the hobart area and will be up for a cruise as soon as my car is running.

BTW last sunday as the shoreline car park i saw about 6 imports there was a WRX, Hotted up Pulsar and a Silver R33 GTR, and some others just wondering if they were about to go for a cruise or just gathering or coincidence, any one know?

Hey dudes. The name's Paul. Drive a white R33 GTS-t in Lonny. Keen to get a hill climb or something happening in the near future instead of everyone doing sweet fa and freezing their balls off in town.

Cheers.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
